    The Sacred Journey 

    journey

    Life should not be long, But it should be BIG

    The sacred sun shines and shimmers,

    With a bliss and ravishing art.

    Lo’ my friends I stand before thee,

    ‘Coz it’s the tie for us to depart.


    Life then walks down the memory lane,

    In a patient, but rigid craft,

    But the craft refuses to return although,

    As it’s the time or us to depart.


    Separation is a course of life,

    As life is like a cart.

    And the cart goes places with faces,

    Some arrives and some depart….

      I rarely comment, however i did a few searching
      and wound up here creative writing | Dastagirda’s Blog. And I actually do have a couple of questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be just me or does it appear like some of these comments come across like left by brain dead folks? 😛 And, if you are posting on additional social sites, I’d
      like to keep up with anything fresh you have to post.
      Could you make a list of every one of your shared pages like your twitter
      feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

    TRUE OR FALSE 

    true or false

    true or false

    A lady with a white.

    Is waiting in the shine.

    For me it’s the time to bright,

    As I am thinking of mine.


    I saw her with a wrinkled smile,

    She gave me a bright smile.

    But for me it’s not the time to smile,

    As my life is about a mile.


    Oh! My lord, what I do?

    Shall I love or I leave?

    Is it for me the time to do?

    As for journey I am about to leave.


    Now the wheel, wheeled towards me,

    And I’m still waiting for she.

    But for me it’s the journey of key,

    As I waited the train left me.

    (More …)

    The Jury

    How to enter

    The photographs you submit for the theme may be an extension of your current work, or something completely new. It could reflect information that’s important to you, or express your wish make the online world more beautiful or interesting. Each of your five photographs will display at different points in the day as the iGoogle theme changes dynamically over time. Your theme, with its five different states, will together form a portrait of your work and your aesthetic. There is no theme for entries, and we are interested in photographs from all disciplines, from portrait to fashion, documentary to abstract.

    Rules

    • There is a limit of one entry per person.
    • Each entrant must submit five different images in the correct format as specified below.
    • All entrants must be higher education students, and use their academic email address to enter.
    • All entries must be submitted by 31st May.
    • All entries must abide by our Terms and Conditions.

    Format

    The images you submit will be turned into an iGoogle theme. The public vote and the judges will see the images as an iGoogle theme. We need to receive your images in the right format: this is really important, otherwise they will not work as a theme.

    The iGoogle theme will look like this:

    iGoogle

    The themes span the top of the page, so you need to submit an image with a width of 1000px and a height of 175px.

    The iGoogle logo search bar and links will cover some of the artwork, so you should avoid having the main subjects in these areas so that they are not obscured. Bear in mind that the position and size of iGoogle logo, searchbar and links will vary slightly between browsers, so exact position on artwork cannot be guaranteed.

    You can use this Adobe Photoshop™ file to format your work correctly.

    If you are selected as 1 of the 6 finalists we will be projecting your work at the the Saatchi Gallery London. To do this we will require high resolution versions of your photographs so please hold on to the original files.

    Judging criteria

    The entries will be judged according to the following criteria:

    • the technical, creative and artistic qualities of each of the five photographs that make up an Entry;
    • the coherence of the five photographs together as a theme; and
    • how creatively and originally the Student has engaged with the iGoogle format.

    Tips

    Don’t forget to check out the iGoogle themes from famous artists that have already attempted the challenge at the iGoogle artists gallery. If you traditionally take portrait photographs, or a lot of the work in your portfolio is not in the current format then why not try one of these tips from some of our current theme creators to make the most of your images and the iGoogle format:

    • Yves Behar/fuseproject’s Earth-light highlights the dynamic abilities of themes, as a daylight curve moves across a world map.
    • John Maeda’s Simplicity is Complex consists of large tiles, without having a distinct center image.
    • Mark Frauenfelder’s Adventures in Lollipopland shows how you can tile your images to fit different screen resolutions.
    • Troy Lee’s Supermoto Mayhem uses a solid background color instead of tiling.

    Their Mission:

    Our mission is to add Vitality to life. We meet everyday needs for nutrition, hygiene and personal care with brands that help people look good, feel good and get more out of life.

    Enthused with Vitality

    Vitality is at the heart of everything we do. It’s in our brands, our people and our values.

    Vitality means different things to different people. Some see it as energy, others view it more broadly as a healthy state of body and mind – of feeling alive.

    Whatever their personal definition, millions of people around the world use our products daily to add Vitality to their lives – whether that’s through feeling great because they’ve got shiny hair and a brilliant smile, keeping their homes fresh and clean, or by enjoying a great cup of tea, satisfying meal or healthy snack.

    Ever since the 19th Century when William Hesketh Lever stated that the company’s mission was “to make cleanliness commonplace; to lessen work for women; to foster health and contribute to personal attractiveness, that life may be more enjoyable and rewarding for the people who use our products,” Vitality has been at the heart of our business.

    Vitality defines what we stand for: our values, what makes us different, and how we contribute to society. It’s the common thread that links our brands and it’s central to the unique way we operate around the world.

    Health & nutrition

    Our Vitality mission commits us to growing our business by addressing health and nutrition issues. We focus on priorities including children and family nutrition, cardiovascular health and weight management.

    Inside & out

    Our culture also embodies Vitality. Adding Vitality to life requires the highest standards of behaviour towards everyone we work with, the communities we touch and the environments on which we have an impact.

    The growing demand for more Vitality in life provides us with a huge opportunity for growth. The way we work and the products we develop are shaped by consumer trends, along with the need to help raise health and hygiene standards in both the developing and industrialised regions of the world.
