PLAYING WITH ‘A’ TO ‘Z’!

PLAYING WITH ‘A’ TO ‘Z’!

  

A - It's AN APT APPROBATION and APPROVAL. ALREADY AWARE of the ADVERSITIES, he remained ALERT,  AGILE, and ATTENTIVE. Starting with an ABSTRACT concept, he gave ACTIVE support and ADVANCED well thought out ARGUMENTS through his ADVOCACY presenting them AFFABLY and AESTHETICALLY with ALL success. He was ALWAYS AWAKE, AWAITING ACADEMICS AFTER APARTMENT AMENDMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS. AN ANSWERPHONE ASSEMBLED AT the AGENCY -  ANGEL, ALABAMA, U.S. - is AN ALARM APPEARING AS AN ALTERNATING APPARITION AWAIING ATTENTION. 


B - BUDS BURSTING and BURGEONING plants BLOOMING are nothing but BEAMNG of Nature. After a hiatus, he came BACK to Cricket with a BIG BANG, facing the situation BOLDLY, BRAVELY, and BUOYANTLY. The BRIGHT and BRILLIANT chap BUBBLING with volcanic zeal could make things BEAUTIFUL. Ever since then, it has BECOME a colourful garden. It is now a BOOMING BUSINESS raising many BARS. She has now added a BUNCH of rainbow rhinestones to her otherwise simple dress to BEDAZZLE it. He has now BECOME a BETTER person. They BELIEVED that I was the BEST BET, easy to BEFRIEND. He has always been BENEVOLENT to the needy, a BENEFACTOR of our company, and a BENEFICIARY of our unabated love and affection. Of course, this rank is a BIG honour to be BESTOWED on anyone. The content of that BOOK appeared BEWILDERING. She has the most BEWITCHING BROWN eyes.


C - That CUTE baby's CURIOUS eyes were CHARMING and CAPTIVATING. Flowers neither CHOOSE nor COURSE CHANGE nor assign nor assume COLOURS of their own CHOICE. They remain CONTENTED, CHARMING the onlookers with what they are! He is a CLEAN, CORRUPTION-free, CHEERFUL, CHARISMATIC, and CAN-do leader. Since he has been a CRUSADER, a CHAMPION, and a CAMPAIGNER for good CAUSES, he is respected by people. He has COLLECTED the COLD COFFEE in a CUP. Mr. Barack Obama, in an unusually CANDID public discussion at the CENTRAL Intelligence Agency's COVERT program, said the drone strikes had not inflicted any huge CIVILIAN CASUALTIES. One knows not how COME he has failed to CALL it a CALAMITY and recognize the CALAMITOUS effects it had on humans and the obvious adverse CONSEQUENCES.

 

D - The result however DISSATISFACTORY, DISADVANTAGEOUS, and DISAGREEABLE it may be, should not DISTURB, DISQUIET, DISTRACT, DISTRESS, and/or DISCOMPOSE you, no matter how the situation DRILLS you DOWN. DANCING or indulging in a DARING activity while DREAMING is a pleasant experience. DISCUSSIONS and DEBATES  form the fulcrum of DEMOCRACY. In DESERTS, people suffer DEARTH of provisions. Being alone at home, she ate slowly and DELIBERATELY DAWDLED over the meal, to kill time. DEBILITATING health and DEPLETING energy cause DEGENERATING DISEASES. On his failure to win the game, he became DISAPPOINTED, DEJECTED, DISHEARTENED, DISMAYED, DISPIRITED, DEMORALIZED, DEPRESSED, DETERRED, and DAUNTED, and whatnot! The DAMAGE it has DONE is just so DETRIMENTAL to the country and people. Of late, my friend has become DEFENSIVE, DISCREET, DISCERNING, and DIPLOMATIC while DEALING with his friends.


E - An ESTABLISHMENT or ENTERPRISE doesn’t ENERGIZE and ENRICHES on its own! A lot of EFFORTS are put in to shape it up with EACH and EVERYONE concerned making their contributions. That ENDEARING teacher often ENDEVOURS to EDIFY her pupils. He was young ENOUGH to be ENTHUSED by my ENTHUSIASM, professional ENOUGH to find it ENDEARING. The piece opened with EBULLIENT bursts of ENERGY that were ELECTRIFYING. It should be an EXCITING, EXHILARATING, ENTHRALLING, and ENTRANCING EXPERIENCE indeed! An EGALITARIAN society is one where EVERYONE is EQUAL. The judge ELOQUENTLY spoke about general EQUALITY, EMANCIPATION, and EMPOWERMENT of women. Let's try to ELIMINATE EVEN distant negative ELUSIVE possibilities. Cloth EMBELLISHMENT like EMBROIDERY is a fine art. So far, no one has proved our ongoing EFFLUENT-treatment EFFORT wrong by presenting EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE. For the mediocre, the EXCELLENT policy would be to try to EMULATE and EXCEPT.

 


F - FLOWERS teach us – FOLLOW the sunlight and do what makes you FEEL happy and warm. They also give FRAGRANCE, no FOLLY, and no FOOLHARDINESS. Make FRIENDS and have FAITH in them, no FOES. FEEL FRIENDLY with those who deserve it as that will be the FOUNDATION and FOUNTAINHEAD for the co-existence and prosperity of all. Any book that can FAN the FIRE of knowledge FERVOUR and FLAIR should be a thing of joy. It should FASCINATE generations. This small book FOCUSSES on the local FLORA and FAUNA. There are many evening classes conducted by Universities which make it more FEASIBLE when you are working FULL-time! He FOUND himself wrapped in a cloud of FILMY linen FRAGRANCE with FEMININE perfumes. We all hold one another's FRAGILE hopes in our hands.



G - Butterflies are charming GARDENERS. Try the GREATEST and GRANDEST deeds to GET anything done. Flowers blossom and DELIGHT you; so DOES hope, and each DAY brings new opportunities and possibilities. After clearing the GARBAGE, I will GO to the GARDEN. Mr. GOVIND is called the man with GOLDEN GUITAR. Every year, Mr. GOPAL would play GOLF in August, a GOLDEN time indeed! He would GET his GAME from the GARAGE and drive to the GOLF course. He brought a GORGEOUS GOLD GIFT for his little GIRLCHILD. Football is all about GOING by kicking the ball into the GOAL post. We GLADLY want to share some GENTLE words of positivity with you. Whether you are a GROOVY GENIUS or have GAIETY GALORE, these will be a GOLDMINE for GENIAL conversation. He had the GRIT and GUMPTION to manage even tricky situations. That SALESGIRL provides GENUINE GENEROUS feedback to the employees in her department and she also GREETS customers in a GRACIOUS way to make everyone in the store GLAD.


H - To live in your own sweet HOME with your SWEETHEARTS is a HILARIOUS experience. And, if you HAVE good HEALTH, HEIGHTS come down with a HELPING HAND to take you there. HEALTH and HAPPINESS go together. HATE the HATRED and HATERS. HIT the nail with the HAMMER. HIS HAND reached for the sky. That lady who HAS a HAPPY smile saw HER HUSBAND removing HIS HELMET. He put his shirt on the HANGER and left HIS HAT in the barn. While my friends were ready to go on a HIKE in the mountains, I was too tired to climb up the HILL. The HOVERING clouds were floating HIGH over the HILLOCK.

 

I - INDIVIDUALS make INSTITUTES by INSTALLATION, INDUCTION, and INAUGURATION. INNER and INNATE IDEAS crystallize INTO INITIATIVES once you INITIALIZE them. They then become INFLUENTIAL INSTITUTIONS, INFORMATION dissemination being the main key and mainstay. An IDIOM is a phrase that, when as a whole, has a different meaning than the INDIVIDUAL words would otherwise mean in the actual, literal, and normal sense. Technology study with a bent on research is an IDEAL IDEA. An IDLE mind is a devil's workshop. One has to establish his/her own IDENTITY with IDEALISM embedded to be able to make INTERVENTIONS on multiple ISSUES INCLUDING INTER-personal relationships. The INTERESTS of both parties may not be IDENTICAL, but they do overlap considerably. He seems INCREASINGLY to distrust the IDEALISTIC visions of humanity that typify his early works. All that we have learned so far is only the tip of the ICEBERG


J - He ate toast with JAM. JOURNEY is one you JOYFULLY JUMP on to, not the one JUST happening to you. Also, JUMP not too much in JOY, as there may be pits and falls on your JOURNEY path. After all, JOY is portable, and you always carry it along and share it with others, JUNK not your brain with irrelevant things. JETTISON negative thoughts. He wore a rain JACKET in case it rained. He has written in the JOURNAL the importance of physical exercises. Yesterday, he was JUMPING and JUGGLING with a ball on the beach. 

 

K – KITE without thread and thread without KITE will not fly even an inch up. Remembering the proverb, “The pot calling the KETTLE black”, KICK your ego out.  Unknot your bad KNOTS before anybody does it. KILL your greed and bad thoughts, and KICKSTART with a KILLER spirit. Be a KNIGHT in the darkness of night to show light to others. KINDLE and be KINDLED for KNOWLEDGE's sake. I would like to give KUDOS to my whole team for the victory. He is brave and KIND like a KNIGHT from a KING Arthur story. 

 

L - LIVE like a LION. LIFE goes on whether you are LOCKED in the past or LIVE in the present. Don’t get LOST in your problems and don’t LOSE sleep in brooding over them. Bend not but LEND your ears to good advice.  LET'S not eclipse the fortunes of today in the  LOW-spirited things that happened yesterday. There should be NO-LOVE-LOST between good friends, never! This is an unwritten LAW. LAST, but not the LEAST, LIVE to LEARN and LEARN to LIVE.

 

M - A teacher’s role is to MONITOR, MOTIVATE, and MENTOR children; in short, a role-MODEL for them. It’s the MOST powerful form of education. But, fathers neglect it because they get caught up in MAKING a living instead of MAKING a life. Learn MORE; then only you will know how MUCH MORE you need to learn further. The fire in his belly MAKES learning MUCH MORE interesting for him. To MESMERIZE and MAINTAIN it is the job of the learned!

 

N - It's NORMAL and NATURAL for one to be humble, NIMBLE, and NOBLE. Also, NURTURING and NOURISHING one’s NUMEROUS NICE NOVEL ideas to their logical positive end are NEWSWORTHY. India is now NUMERO UNO in population. She is NONE other than that NUN.  One of the NATIVE languages of India is Tamil. I take routes that lead me through a mix of outdoor NATURE and the cultural centers of NEARBY towns.


 

O -  Take an OATH to live like an OASIS.  Think OBJECTIVELY and fully discharge your OBLIGATIONS to others. Don’t completely avoid sharp edges; for, OCCASIONALLY, they are also necessary for leadership. God is OMNIPRESENT and OMNIPOTENT controller of the entire manifestation. An OPTIMIST is a person who sees light everywhere while a pessimist sees ONLY the red-stop light.

 

P - Be POSITIVE, not PESSIMISTIC. Your PAINSTAKING, PERSISTENT, and PERSEVERING efforts will certainly PAY dividends. Have PASSION and PENCHANT in whatever PET area you work on. Be a PERENNIAL source of PROGRESS and not PROBLEMS. Be PATIENT and a PATHFINDER and not a PEACE spoiler. Have PICTURE PERFECT PERSPECTIVES. Children should avoid rote learning - i.e. a mechanical PRACTICE and/or PERFORMANCE in a repetitive manner without PROPER understanding or reflection. 

 

Q -  Social capital refers to institutions, relationships, and norms that shape the QUALITY and QUANTITY of interactions. Religion is a QUESTION of fact, not of talk. All wished a happy after-retirement life to a motivator, a tutor, and the QUINTSSENTIAL role model that our teacher is. Libraries QUENCHED my thirst for knowledge. People from other countries come to India on a spiritual QUEST. It was a QUIRK of fate that brought them together.

 

 

R -  With her RAVISHING personally full of RADIANCE coupled with RANK altruism and a ‘READY-to-RESPOND-anytime’ mindset, no wonder, she could build a healthy RAPPORT with everybody in the company. The REINDEER RAN into the RESTAURANT. The ROBIN ate RHUBARB pie (a spring leafy vegetable of Rheum Ribes species) and RICE next to the RED RIVER of the South (in the southern U.S.)

.

S - We believe in first-hand SAFETY and SECURITY because there is no SECOND chance. He is a SUAVE, SOPHISTICATED, cool, and cultured man. STAY SHARP, challenge your buddies, and SHOW that you are the SAVVIEST traveler around. Lord SRIRAM throughout remained the SAVIOUR of all his SUBJECTS including all living beings in his Kingdom, Ayodhya, and elsewhere. Here is the ‘KANAKADHARA’ Residential Tower where home SPACES greet and irresistibly pamper you to own your aesthetically-designed home. Here, your SOUL will be able to enjoy the SUNSHINE from the SUNRISE to SUNSET and good ventilation to make you STAY healthy. Of course, a wonderful breeze permeates and wafts through the SERENE environs, SERENADING and pleasantly, SOFTLY, and SMOOTHLY embracing your body and mind.

 

 

T – Her TACTFUL reply to the rude comment effectively eased TENSIONS. THAT mother has a very TENDER way about her baby. I am THANKFUL THAT I have moved to THIS new state. The TEMPERATE climate is to my TASTE and hence I can live THERE forever. TALK THE TALK, and also walk THE TALK. The TEACHER TAUGHT TENNIS to TINY TOTS. When the THREE speakers heard what I said, TWO of THEM ‘looked quite’ glum but the THIRD one got up to say THAT he got it TOTALLY wrong. ‘Move with the TIMES’ means a different THOUGHT also i.e. ‘stay up TO date’. It TAKES TWO TO TANGO. Unnecessary TWISTS TURN THINGS TOPSY-TURVY. Realize the TRUTH THAT, in THIS TRANSIENT and TRANSITORY world, everything or everyone is  TEMPORARILY permanent, or permanently TEMPORARY.

 

 

U - Your stumbling block will never become your stepping stone UNLESS and UNTIL you step on it. Talks were marked by warmth, cordiality, and UNANIMITY on all issues with mutual UNDERSTANDING. The word UBIQUITOUS is mostly USED to mean ‘omnipresent.’ A Federation or Consortium is a UNITING apex UNIT to keep different chapters in affiliation UNDER one UMBRELLA. Music has UNIVERSAL appeal transcending all barriers, so UNIVERSITIES all over the UNIVERSE teach it. The UNITED Nations (U.N.) is trying to put in UNCEASING, UNTIRING, UNFAILING, and UNFALTERING efforts to UNTIE the tricky knots for maintaining peace-loving world order, with UNFLAGGING enthusiasm. It tries to remain UNRELENTING, UNREMITTING, UNWAVERING, UNVARYING, and UNWANING in that regard and facilitates talks between the stakeholders in a conflict, to hammer out solutions for bilateral or regional conflicts anywhere in the world.

 

 

V - It’s a VERY good and VALID point. In the future, in the telecom industry, VALUE will increasingly come more from VARIOUS radical service propositions rather than mere enhancements to VOICE telephony. Variety is the spice of life. Sometimes, discretion is the better part of the VALOUR. Every day is a VENTURE, and every minute is VIBRANT. In the energy sector, finding a VIABLE renewable alternative is a daunting task. Over the years, he has proven himself to be a VALUABLE member of the team due to his VIGILANT attention to detail. My mentor can VOUCH for my VERSATILITY when it comes to transitioning between management styles. Mr. Gopal, a VETERAN and telecom technology giant VOLUNTEERED for different charitable organizations.

 

 

W - WELCOME. United Nations (U.N.) WELL-coordinated programs for the WELFARE and WELL-BEING of the entire people of the WORLD in general (from WOMB to tomb), and the under-privileged, in particular, are really WONDERFUL and WORTH mentioning. WORLD countries should effectively team up WITH it. His WORK has always been top-notch. Their services are WORLD-class. Public Works Department is on constant WATCH of the WATER-bodies. Dynamism is his WATCHWORD. TRAI (Telecom Regulatory Authority of India) is a WATCHDOG organization. For some, the spirit is WILLING but the flesh is WEAK. Confront and WIN over all those WHO are against a just and right order. The richest WEALTH is WISDOM; isn't it?

 

X - Our brains make XEROX copies of our past important events and special moments in our life, and neatly maintain them in a ready-to-serve condition at the appropriate time, just like an X’MAS tree greets, graces, and presents gifts. XENON is a colourless, odourless, and gaseous chemical element which is a trace constituent of the earth’s atmosphere, used in fluorescent lamps, lasers, anesthetics, etc. XEBEC is a two or three-masted small warship or fishing vessel with lateen and usually, some square sails, formerly much used in the Mediterranean.

 

Y - He always had a YEARNING to be a schoolteacher. YOUTHFULNESS is a real blessing. Today’s food includes YUMMY YOGURT, among others, which is good for the stomach. Though a grandmother, she’s YOUNG-at-heart. Mr. Xavier, a YANKEE, did YEOMEN service to establish and develop many educational institutions in India. When the Titanic sank, people were saved by YAWKUBG rescuer teams.

 

 

Z  - Zebra crossing on the road and Zero hours in Parliament are very important. Have ZEAL but don’t be jealous.
