God I Ignored

I saw a begger, an old one, had a curly white hair with foggy spectacles and a dark blurry face...

um... I didn't look at her or rather didn't want to look at her, when I realized she was slowly walking towards me.

I was waiting at the signal, 119 seconds to turn green, AC was off, glass was down.

She came and raised her hands I couldn't hear her voice but it was obvious she was asking for money. I ignored her, not even looked at her once.

I was sure about not giving her anything.

My hands reached for the glovebox hoping there would be some coins left inside, but never opened it. The signal from above was very determined than from the lower left.

She stood there for sometime and left. I looked through the side mirror, when she was out of the sight, I checked inside the glovebox. There was nothing but bits of paper, phew!.

Seconds later, the signal turned green. I was looking for the old lady, through the side mirror, couldn't find her in traffic. I could have given her some money... huh... Any ways next time....

Evening, I went for "Skyfall"... had dinner in McDonalds...

At nights, these signals from within gets verry strong. I could have given her some money... at least... a 10 rupee!.

It's 2:09 am, I cannot sleep! My left side feels like cogs moving, restlessnesss, signal from above says...
I've Seen God, I Ignored Him...

Custom Wallpaper for Galaxy Note - by Lt Blak

A custom made wallpaper for my Galaxy Note...
This is the Final wallpaper in 1600x1280 pixels
Download Galaxy Note GT N7000 wallpaper here...
Anyone interested in PSD or making a custom wallpaper
Let me know : )

The Application :-
This is how it looks on the Galaxy Note...

The Making :- Basic information and Collection of Assets
Needed a pattern for background, So Google'd this image
made a random BG out of it.

Home screen wallpaper of Galaxy Note can be either
800x1280 pixels (default with no movement) or
1600x1280 pixels (extended with movement on swipe)

Now i had to sync the graphic in the BG with the navigation buttons
So for understanding the movement of image
I had to screen capture all the 4 home screens in my Galaxy Note
and align it across 1600 width

The Making :- visualization and creation
Basic need was a Black BG which could reduce the usage of Battery
and some graphic overlay which would seem to connect with the grid

and Finally...

The Giving Tree

The Giving Tree is a tale about a relationship between a young boy and a tree.
The tree always provides the boy with what he wants: branches on which to swing, shade in which to sit and apples to eat.
As the boy grows older, he requires more and more of the tree.

The tree loves the boy very much and gives him anything he asks for.

In an ultimate act of self-sacrifice, the tree lets the boy cut it down so the boy can build a boat in which he can sail.
The boy leaves the tree, now a stump.

Many years later, the boy, now an old man, returns, and the tree sadly says: "I'm sorry, boy... but I have nothing left to give you."
But the boy replies:
"I do not need much now, just a quiet place to sit and rest."
The tree then says,

"Well, an old tree stump is a good place for sitting and resting.
Come, boy, sit down and rest."
The boy obliges and the tree was very happy.
For those who came in late...
