    Lovely haiku…Wish the world could pause to learn from snails.. It would have been a wonderful world.. good that flowers take their time to bloom and don’t try or struggle to make it in a hurry like we humans do.. Slow and steady may not win the race but they do enjoy living.. ha, ha.. I could relate myself with the ‘snail’ here.. RS:)

    • Archana Kapoor says:

      Hi RS.. I knew you would appreciate this one.. 🙂 And yes, wishful thinking but the world would surely be a better place if everyone stopped to smell a rose… 🙂
      And nope – you are not a snail from any angle… 🙂 Cheers buddy!! 🙂

    Too touchy Message, Archana.. Every thing in Nature Teaches us however insignificant it may appear to be.. It reminds me the old story of a king who lost in the war and escaping from the enemies was protected by a spider which wove its own web at the entrance of the very cave in which the kind hid himself temporarily giving an impression to the enemies that none could go inside without braking the web.. Well said!

    • Archana Kapoor says:

      Wow.. that is so insightful sir… Also reminds me of the story where the lion didn’t eat the rat because it was so little and ultimately when the lion got caught in a hunter’s net, it was the rat who bit it to pieces and saved the lion… 🙂

      Thank you so much for spreading your wisdom amongst all of us always Sreedhar sir 🙂
