What is it to live?

We keep running for no real purpose We battle live hard for almost nothing Sometimes I forgot even to breathe And keep stressing Something hit me hard And it made me realise Life has so much joy and surprises around us Do we notice it Or are we busy immersed in ourselves The weather was mild and I was impatiently waiting in a queue And I did not have the pandora box with me I just looked around with nothing much to think or do She came flying down and looked for something to bite She did not gulp the first food she saw She waited and selected her favourite She slowly tore pieces of it and ate it slowly She took so much joy and relish in the task she did She was ignorant of the people around her Her world was just her and her meal She walked towards the water And sipped it elegantly After she was satisfied , she took the remaining food And flew away to share.

Digital Fortress

Book - Digital Fortress Author - Dan Brown Review A technological thriller with twists and surprises. Sarah , the protagonist is a qualified cryptographer who works for the NSA and is apparently the boss's favorite employee. She receives a paranoid call from her supervisor. She rushes to office to find him Commander Trevor Strathmore working on the Transltr. The Transltr , one of the powerful code breaker in the world which does not exist to the world. Strathmore informs Sarah that a unbreakable code has entered Transltr and he asks her help to fight it. He blames it on Ensei Tankado, An Ex NSA Cryptographer who swears to take revenge on NSA. The Author takes through a list of varied emotions and characters. The novel is mesmerizing from Page one and each element in the story has done justice to the core.
