Tranquillity

I think "tranquillity" is such a beautiful word -- it's got this soothing, whispering sound to it -- the word itself makes you want to believe that such a thing as 'tranquillity' actually exists.

We were in Pune last week & while gazing at this countryside-in-monsoon view from atop a hill, I realised what a beautiful word 'tranquillity' is!

That's so true...

Quite often in Life we start appreciating and understanding the meaning of a lot of words when we experience things first hand!

Of all the places I have visited so far the one which I shall never forget is one of the Hawaii'an islands called Molokai..

I studied in Pune..and have a lot of fond memories associated with it..


I have a lot of wonderful memories of Pune...

'tranquility' is a beautiful word because of what it implies- in our heads:) . The associations it has in our minds makes us like it.

dunno, just felt like saying that.

All,
Yup, that's the hill overlooking the Khadakwasla dam.

I'm trying to imagine this post minus the picture and realize how much of a meaning it lends to the word. :-) But yeh, it hasn't rained since you clicked this picture.
