Download Free Natural Wallpapers

Posted by Webmistress on October 21, 2009

Hey buddies!

Life is all about learning. Each day makes us better in this and the other way. And, today I learnt something very strange.  It was 10:00 AM and I was in office. I had the same wallpaper on my PC since last two months so decided to change it. Pretty obvious, turned to Google.com and searched with the keyword download free Natural Wallpapers. Unluckily, I didn’t get any website. OMG! how come? The ones which I got were prompting me to navigate from one link to other.

Anyways, I kept on searching and finally got the right website to download wallpapers of Nature. You too must try it if facing the same problem.

Have a gud day!

Literal Beauty, it’s not so easy to define!!

Posted by Webmistress on June 3, 2009

Hi, the readres of my blog Literal Beauty! So, how are you doing? hopefully, life would be rocking on :)…cheers

Anyways, i got a mail from one of my readres, a good friend as colleague as well, who has shared his thoughts about Literal Beauty with me! I am sharing it with you, with his consent…. here’s how it goes, word-by-word!

Literal Beauty…. It’s a phenomenon, which would never come to an end! Although people, throughout the world, are trying to alter it, with their anti-natural activities and artificial beauty, but still Literal beauty is consistent and steady.

Well, I got this blog when searching “literal beauty (Natural Beauty)”, and have read all about this. However…. I just want to say that I am not satisfied with the words of the owner as I think that nobody can define what literal beauty is, or can say beautiful.

In my words, Literal beauty is what we can’t change and which is liked only for being original. Beauty loses its true sense when it gets artificial, or we cay say fake.

Dear web mistress, can you plz let me know, why do you love literal Beauty? What happens to you when you go on some hill station like Kasauli? I mean, what special happens? What makes you to love hills and their beauty? I have read your long-long posts about literal beauty but sorry to say that I couldn’t get the actual meaning of Literal Beauty. Now, let me share, what I know about Nature or in the terms of blog, Literal Beauty? Actually when I first read the poem “Education of Nature” composed by William Words Worth in 12th class, I came to know the depths of Nature. Honestly, I was thinking that how nature can teach us something? It was my teacher who sorted out my problem. Believe me, initially; when I was a kid, I was of thinking that nature means Forest. For me, the belongings of the forest, such as lions, trees, and birds were nature, literal beauty. But, today, I can understand how much deep this sea is? Well, Nature (Literal Beauty) can be the things, which can maintain you, inspire you to be independent and caring and can teach you how to stay happy when many things start making you worried? Nature also teaches how to protect your family, lover, and friends etc from the selfishness as being a human.

So the thing is that we must do something for nature. Only writing about the beauty of nature doesn’t gonna work. We should try to save it otherwise if we lost it once, we will die foreverL . It’s really nice to see a nature lover here! Thanks for sharing the beauty of nature with us. And, my questions are still to be answered?

 

See you around dear,

Sushhhh………..

Hey sush, thanks a lot man! Next post of Literal Beauty would definitley answer the questions rasied by u!

Jab We Met, the always freshy movie!

Posted by Webmistress on May 13, 2009

AND, this Sunday also was with my favorite celebrities, Shahid and Kareena Kapoor, wathcing Jab we Met!

For me, Jab We Met, the movie in which Shahid Kapoor (Aditaya) & Kareena Kapoor did a marvelous job, is never mind-numbing. I watched Jab We Met today, once again, honestly have no track how many times I’ve watched it, it’s always entertaining and refreshing.

The movie, with no doubts, did a great business throughout India and raked in much more than the investments of the producers. From fans’ point of view, Jab We Met has everything which we always like to have from Indian Cinema, very precisely, romance, friendship, emotional drama, family issues etc. And, I loved Jab We Met for its relevance to my favorite hill station, Manali, Himachal Pradesh.

And, Geet, the character portrayed by Kareena Kapoor in Jab We Met, has the same love and craze for hills as I do have. When I watched Jab We Met for the first time, I was stunned to see how crazy, that gal is, for hills and my bro gave me the complement, ‘it’s just you’…..everybody knows what a hills station, like Manali, means for me J

Geet falls in love with a boy, Anjuman, who resides in Manali, her dream hill-station and the reason for such feeling is just his stay there. Though Anjuman failed to accede to her wishes, but has an important part to play in the premise of the movie.

Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh and Manali, Himachal Pradesh are my favorite hill stations. Jab we Met has innumerous scenes filmed in Manali, especially the one in which Aditaya leaves Geet so that she can go to his dream boy Anjuman. OMG…..did you notice the background? It was awesome, with snow laden hills…… tons of greenery….. I do fall in love with such scenes!

Watching Geet in Jab We Met gave me a nice feeling and I realized that it’s not only me- who experience something crazy, means getting out of control and losing the normal senses (it’s not being abnormal,okay)  in lap of hills, some others do share the same characteristic.  My favorite song of Jab We Met:

This song is awesome, with help from Kareena, Shahid, long roads, high mountains, Hills’ residents, sweet music, brillinat lyrics. Hey……..you need to have a HILLY HEART, to feel the feelings expressed there, so sorry if you didn’t find anything special in it….stay tuned:)

And, i saw literal Beauty in Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh

Posted by Webmistress on April 29, 2009

Hi buddies! Hows going?

Well, It has been so long since i post anything here on our very sweet Literal Beauty. Actually, I was kinda very busy, exams, exams and exams!Schedule was too hectic, so hectic that didn’t get some time to pen in something here regarding literal beauty!

But, today I can’t stop myself from logging in and writing this post. Me, along with someones specials in my life, went to Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh on April 25th, 2009. It was an official trip, consisting of approximately 36 people. And, trust me, it was one of the amazing days of my life. It was the third time i visited Kasauli, Monkey Point. First time, i was with family; second time, i was with my college mates and this time, i was with colleagues and my best friends as well.

Visiting Monkey Point, Kasauli was like a dream coming true for me. Because, i had no plans till 24th April, 2009 but then, I had to prepare myself because Sushil (one of my best friends & colleague) used to say that ‘kabhi kabhi doosro ki khushi ke liye b kuch karna chayiye‘. Hence, this trip was my dedication to the ones who wanted me to be with them in their precious moments.

As very usual, I captured in numerous photographs, some are here for you to enjoy!

These photographs are of Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh, captured with my Nokia 3110 Classic while we’re coming back from Monkey Point. Lots of other things are to be expressed and share with you buddiesso would write another post. Here, you just enjoy the views of the hill station that i love most-

Womanhood, where does it stand in this mail-dominated society?

Posted by Webmistress on March 9, 2009

“A women’s guess is more accurate than a men’s certainty”

IWD (International Women Day), March 8, once again gave a decent feeling of being a young gal and it’s more than enough reason for me to write on the above said topic. Kudos to the women, the pre-requisite of a family, all over the world and wish you all a very Happy Women’s Day J


Without any doubts, Womanhood is bliss and only a woman can understand what it’s like to be a woman. Let me throw a light on some most important relations of this world:

Mama– this is the first word, which we all utter, and which is the purest and the most lovable word, for everyone, no matter which position we’re on and how much amount we monthly earn. Mothers are our guides, source of inspiration, motivation and the ones who’re always there to back us! Ponder over “y and large, mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacation-less class.”

Sisters– Our sister is the next relation, after mama, which we can trust and share the depth of heart. She understands you better and really, when you buy and try a new dress, honest reviews can be from a sister only.

Wife/Beloved– Yeah, she becomes an important part of a man’s life, much later than mama and sis. But as soon as she enters his life, she becomes his better half. Being a human, we all need love (Emotional, Physical) so god made this relation to fulfill our lust for love. Gandhi Ji said “Woman is the companion of man, gifted with equal mental capacity”. How much do you agree with this?


Thus, it’s very apparent that women must be treated as the rulers of this society as expecting a good society without women, is impossible.

I am 21 and working at a good position, pursuing my post graduation. But still, sometimes I wonder over the fact why my parents hesitate me to send out after 11:30 PM and if they do allow, why papa/bro is always there with me?

Everybody, reading this article, would reply ‘Society is not safe for women’ and it actually is not, I know. But, who makes society insecure? The general philosophy is that men are responsible but no, putting the whole blame on them is wrong, women themselves are somewhere.

Gals/women grow up keeping it in mind that they’re inferior to boys/men. Family environment also plays an important role. A gal is always told that she should not compare herself with her bro…. He’s a boy and you are a gal….all this makes her to feel that being a woman is a curse L.

As of now, scenario has been changed a lot and it’s changing. Luckily, we’re not a part of the society where women are not supposed to attend schools, to go out, to even live according to their wishes. Their life is nothing more than staring into NOTHINGNESS!

Literal Beauty’s New Year Celebrations!

Posted by Webmistress on January 1, 2009

Well, 2008 has slipped away from our hands and we all have welcomed 2009 with open arms. I wish you guys will  have happiness and prosperity throughout the year ahead and may your all wishes come true. HAPPY NEW YEAR from your very own literal beauty.

What did you do this new year eve? well, I didn’t celebrate it like most of you buddies. My way of new year celebration was somehow special and unique. I took my laptop, went upstairs, took a chair and sat on roof. OMG….. it was so cold and my hands were froze. It was approximately 9:45 PM. After the first 15 minutes, I felt like my hands were not with me and I was just shivering with cold and it was 10:00PM when my sweet (haha) aunt came to me asked me,what i was doing there in such a severe cold. I replied that I would be inside very soon, you please go and sleep. She went believing I would go to bed soon.

Hey…. but my plans were superb and i was not ready to spoil the new year eve at any cost. Initially, the severe cold forced me to drop out the idea but an inner voice (which always helps me in such circumstances) encouraged me to sat there and do what I had decided. Then, there was a little change in plan and i had to got up to have a cup of coffee. After it, i was back on my chair with laptop in my lap. Next, I started writing about what i lost/achieved during 2008 and believe me, time spend so speedily and i didn’t know when new year arrived at our home. I stopped writing when  when my phone started ringing at 12:03 .

And, it was the fantstic night of my life. I realized how beautiful nature can be when it’s midnight and how much pleasing it can be to write when there is no visibility due to fog. I have the whole stuff written with me, will share with you buddies some day. It was mine way of celebrating new year in the lap of nature and feeling the literal beauty! You can share yours’ through comments…….i m waiting!

Well, winters, the most beautiful as well as delighting segment of year, are here! To all the visitors of literal beauty blog, wish a very very HAPPY Winters. As of today, it’s cloudy and very cool breeze is blowing and this is what enraptures me in winters. Nothing special to do so i am sitting in my quilt and preparing a new post for all of you!

OMG… shivring hands and red nose (which my sis usually had whenever she went outside in such a cool weather) and driving your Activa in winters is much more pleasing than summers and autumn etc! Nature also gets sexy (sorry to say) in winters and snow in winters….. ahhh, i’ve started feeling cold!

The worst part of living in Punjab is that you can’t enjoy show here. Nothing like snow falls in punjab and that’s why people of Punjab rush to Hill station, exactly like me. Residents of Himachal Pradesh are very fortunate in this case as sbowfall in Himachal is considered as one of the loveliest, sweestest n cutest snowfalls in India. If you’re living in plan and are missing snow fall in winters, then, literalbeauty.wordpress.com has a very splendid solution for you folks. Here, i am gonna add pictures of snowfall, enjoy them, before you go to some Hill Station n enjoy it actually!

Would you call it Beauty or something else?

Posted by Webmistress on November 25, 2008

Well, buddies don’t know much about you but I’ve realized it many times that even a dead leave can produce beauty. For me, a broken piece of glass can have tons of meanings and appeals. Sometimes, a beggar’s twinkling eyes make me astonished and sometimes a cute kid’s little hands induce me to kiss him/her. So, buddies beauty or Literal Beauty has thousands definitions and we can’t set standards for it.

childhood-innocence

Much to my surprise, yesterday my cousin showed me his new foot wears. He’s just three years old and while he was showing me his new footwears, I felt the happiness and tons of relaxation on his sweet lips. He was behaving like he has got the costliest treasure of the world. Oh man… this is called satisfaction and a satisfy person’s face represents the actual beauty. You just try to feel it, believe me, things would be rocking, surely!

Okay, I am giving you some questions. Just tell me your views.

  1. Suppose you’re walking along the bank of a river with your partner. Suddenly, cool breeze starts to blow and your mate’s longhair start puzzling her. She tries hard to manage but fails to do so and they continuously irritate her. Now, tell me, for you, it’d be a pleasing experience to see her managing with them or will be an irritating task.
  2. Imagine, you’ve plucked a rose, representing literal beauty, from some plant in a garden. You’ve full intentions to give it to your spouse. But suddenly, a kid comes to you and snatches it from your hand. As a result, rose is ruined. Whether the sweet eyes of kid will soothe you or you’ll slap him/her for ruining all your plans.
  3. Look, I am giving you two options. #1 you can go to hills without any modern facilities and can stay there for one month, even without your mobile phone. All expenses will be afforded by me #2 you can go for shopping in FLAMEZ for one day, of course, on your own expense.
  4. What’s your definition of Literal Beauty and how many times you visit literal beauty?

I want you to answer all above questions. And, after reading your answers I’ll tell you whether or not you’re a nice beauty appraiser. Stay tuned. Well, I know someone will find it hard to understand my feelings, sorry to them as sweeties, watching beauty is easier than feeling the beauty. Just try to feel literal beauty…………
