Kodai rain finds Palani

The killing in a principality,led the world to the first of the world wars...The atomic bomb ended the next,but telescoped the reach of an instrument for terror.
The potent H1N1 made sure that even a sneeze had an impact on three quarters of the world...A demolition of two towers in a city hyphenated a "pre and post" that day world..And a volcano with an unpronounceable name, from a country with no known clout,made sure that Billions were lost even without a Maddock Ponzi..

Over the ages,we have seen the catastrophic effects of happenings in one part, impacting far beyond geographical boundaries...

But we have also been blessed by natures bounty...happenings and peoples contribution, far from us..

The rich thinking of spartan yogis of the east have inspired the western civilizations to think beyond the material..The flight of imagination of Greek philosophers when brought to reality by two brothers has flown Drs in the southern hemisphere and put a Hubble in space..
An Albanian found Sainthood in caring for the inconsolably suffering in Asia..While a rich harvest of affordable technology from Asia made the web,truly world wide and available for all..

But for today,I am referring to a much smaller footprint of cause and effect..

A smaller foot print but with joy no less..

Last night it rained in Kodaikanal..and some of that rain found Palani..They know it in these parts as,Kodai rain..

Rain which falls in the cooler climes of elevated Kodai..cools the hot dry plains of Palani..

Small joys...but shared in this beautiful world of ours..

So..Which palani is your rain finding ?
