Its lazy morning with many broken promises.
When I slept around twelve thirty ,the first broken promise was to
get up early and go to precinct 24 where I need to get my finger print
for canadian visa purposes. There were many mundane promises which
break with myself every morning ..every moments and every day ....once
my boss at greenpeace said that we compromise with ourselves in the
morning , we keep compromising through out life. I think he was right
because I see in my own life that compromised made in the morning
reflect in the day too . Our life is essentially made of passing
moments. A moments compromised is life compromised .
I woke up at a 8.16 pm , open my window of ground floor apartment . A
white silk has covered earth , cars and my petit bicycle . A big bumps
of snow was formed on my bicycle seat. When I bought this vintage
quinn bike from a chinese guy in down town Manhattan , it was covered
with purple colored plastic . I didn't tacit and it turned out quite
safe from rain and snow till now.

Snow brings something to the city. I was in 1 police plaza today. Its
a building behind the city hall.where Mayor Bloomberg sits. Tourists
never get tired . Lots of people are taking pics of snow covered mta
buses and park. Labourers are busy building freedom towers. I spend
few minutes in overlooking the construction which stll look like big
hole in near path train station.snow has covered the big monster
trucks and other machineries busy in construction activities.

New police head quarter reminded me of railway headquarter in mumbai
when I used to go to get permission for Greenpeace awareness campaign.
There were certainly less people but the smell of furniture and rest
rooms were similar though I must say nypad has relatively well
maintained rest rooms .

I am in 6 train right now . This one has new cmpartment and bright
interiors . Its nice and new people are busy listening music through
their ipods.one girl is sipping starbucks coffee. I must
