Ultimately Truth Is Truth

Truth is truth even if no one believes in it.

Lie is lie even if everyone believes in it.

Ultimately truth is truth & its power is here to stay.
Truth will emerge and kick the lies out of its way!

Truth wins! Truth will win at the end and be known to all.
Lie will be defeated as truth will conquer and stand tall.

Then, why do people queue to lie & resort to lies feeling it's fine?
Why the numbers of supporters are so less in the truth line?

True Treasure

"There is a priceless treasure in our backyard!" holding his hand his dying father had said.
"It must be the truth", he thought as those were the last words of his father on his death-bed.

As an enterprising twenty-year-old, he had commenced his treasure-hunt digging-job earnestly.
At age 70, even after half a century, his hard-work & quest for truth is still in progress actually.

Happiness Perfume

I was gifted this tiny bottle wrapped with love,
As I gingerly opened it, there was a note for me-
"Hope this adds to your enchanting treasure-trove!
I wish you a whiff of magic & may you live happily!"

Her Shoes

"And this is where he caught her after a long chase..." the tour-guide mentioned waving her hand.

"Lover's Point!" the sign-board informed.

"Yes! King Raj proposed to Rani here! She agreed to be his queen!"

"Did she have any choice?" I remarked looking at the steep fall ahead into the sea...

"Why did she run all the way here on this rugged path?" I wondered aloud trying to put myself in her shoes.

"The romantic setting!" the tour-guide winked.

Bottled Fantasy

The artist was surprised to see his creation outside his window.

His latest painting was out there as a canvas in the sky.

He had chosen his theme as colourful buildings with dazzling stars.

Save Water

Life started on Planet Earth thanks to water; for life, water is main.
In today's world, towards water incomprehensible is the disdain...

"Rain-water harvesting" & "conserving water" sounds lame?
Why for such efforts of judicious water-usage aren't we game?

Dripping taps, open pipes... allowing water to flow down the drain...
"Water is wealth", "Water is precious" & we all pray for the rain.

I am still learning to save water, are you? Please share water conservation tips.

Rush To The Top Of The World

"Are you nuts?", "Do you know what seems exciting, you may despise?"
They try to talk her out of her "stupidity" lest things go wrong & she dies...

She says, "Of course! This is my dream. I speak the truth; I hate lies!"
"I want to go to the top of the world & jump to the earth, yet rise!"

Attempting to kiss the sky, eyeing for the stars with stars in her eyes,
She races towards her dreams in her true form without any disguise!

This is where she has always wanted to be, fulfilling dreams is nice!
Rush & race to the top of the world is a sweet feeling that adds spice!

How To Recover Deleted Photos From Android Phone?

Last month, I discovered to my shock and dismay that all the photographs and videos in the 'Gallery' & 'Camera-roll' on my Android Phone were missing. But, the other folders like Screenshots etc. were intact.

I was back from a trip where I had clicked many pics and captured several videos. My phone's memory was almost full. I started getting warning messages. Then, one fine day, they had all disappeared...

I have two mobile phones and as the memory of one phone was already full, I had used this Android phone to save photos especially of the last half of my trip. I felt terrible to find those pictures along with pics taken in the last few months were missing. Perhaps, it is a way in which the Android phone unburdens itself and automatically frees memory by simply deleting the 'Gallery' data?

I was midway in my second April #AToZChallenge #BlogchatterA2Z in which I was writing A to Z posts about Odisha, India- including the travel places I had visited. 
My mind was heavy as I had documented my trip by clicking pictures of sign-boards and information-boards. Now, how would I write my posts? 

'Pictures speak more than a thousand words'. 

 "Those pics are important. I have to retrieve them." I requested myself to go for Mission Photos Recovery.

I contacted the phone's registered service-centre. They refused saying that they can only update the phone's software that would erase my existing data. 

I checked with the other phone-service stores. The moment they heard that pics were lost from the 'Gallery' i.e. the internal phone memory, they shook their head and expressed their inability. Had the data been lost/deleted from external storage like SD card, they could have attempted to be saviour.

How to restore/recover/retrieve deleted pictures? 

I started searching online for help.

Hut On The Hill

The river looked deep and tough to cross.

She had to get to the other side that had steep steps leading to the hill-top.

She had to get to the witch's hut.
