Human nature

today is new year, wishing everyone a happy new year. today we get back to the topics of nature in the blog posts. I was thinking and couldn’t really understand what to be written for today. So i thought it would be great idea I told you about human nature today.Human is most difficult to understand animal. I don’t want to get into physicological aspects of human beings. But being human is definetly special.We havea  brain that’s small in size than most of the animals but it is built in with such complexities. Everyone of the inventions is an evidence for the complexity of the human brain. We have discovered and work on mediums that we cannot see or feel. for example the virtual world of the internet.The running around behind success is the most common nature of humans.Money and power seem to rule though we still have people who believe that love is most important. Nature of one human being differs from the other. You could make 1000000000 posts yet not write completely about human nature.

Child births and many more deaths. 2008 has seen it all.Below is a link which will give you an insight about the natural disasters that occurred during this year that were devastating. Natural disasters such as Flash floods, Tropical storm, Earthquakes, Drought, Landslides, Cyclone, Explosions, Valcano erruptions, Sea swell floods etc etc etc.,  Many lost their lives and many lost their loved ones and everything they owned.

snow

It’s december, the cold season which is otherwise also called the holiday seasoon is on. We have just finished with christmas and about to celebrate new year. One thing that we can see in nature now is the snow. All the cold countries that are not in the tropical zone are filled with loads of snow and you can see people enjoying the cold season ice skating, making ice - man and cursing the snow for not being able to take their cars out in the morning.Now the first question would be what is snow? Snow is crystal form of water. when temperature is below 0 degree centigrade than the water from couds turn into flakes of ice and fall on the earth. This is called as the snow.Snow is water not in complete solid state. It’s flakes hence it is light and fluffy as comapred to the ice. Snow has many effects on human life which we will discuss in detail in the next post. I the coming posts we shall also talk about ‘bright night’ effect, types of snowfall and other things about snow fall which turn the whole surrounding into a whitewashed wall.

Indian ocean ~ 2

As promised I’m back again with Indian ocean, today we’ll take an insight into the islands that are in the Indian ocean. Indian ocean has hundreds of islands both big as well as small.Let’s begin with the eastern islands and move on to others. The first island i would like to tell about in the eastern coast are the Andaman islands.
 
 
Andaman islands are a group of islands, both the Andaman and Nicobar island groups are under the Indian teritorry.Andaman island is thinly populated. The climate here is tropical hence you can always expect a warm beach and and breeze. Andaman beaches are not hugely visited by tourist but it’s a great get away if you are looking for warm beaches, cozy staying options, a peek into tribal culture and enjoying southern asian food especially the fish fried in coconut milk.
 
Tomorrow let’s look deeper into Andaman islands and i’ll be back with a few intresting pictures

NATURE

Nature is a very common word used in day to day life. Mother - Nature, Physical - Nature, Human - Nature, Natural phylosophy, Natural environment these are terms often used. What does Nature in all these words mean? The answer to this could be deep rooted but let’s understand it in it’s simplest sense!Nature is the physical world around us. The plants, animals, reptiles, birds,  micro -oraganisms, sand, beaches, waterfalls, oceans, rivers, me, you and everything you could see and think of between the subatomic to the galatic is NATURE. Isn’t that simple? So everything around us presently is nature. The word Nature could have many meanings although accoring to the dictionary, it would be “ The essential qualities or characteristics by which something is recognized or A causal agent creating and controlling things in the universe. Now that we understand the meaning of the word. Don’t we need to know how the word originated?Well, Nature is derieved from the Latin name ‘Natura’ which was the exact translation of the Greek word ‘Physis’ which originally related to the intrinsic characteristics of plants and animals and all other similar beings. But today when we use the word nature it means the physical universe itself.
