HISTORY OF KUTTIKKANAM
In the 16th century the territory was under the rule of Changanacherry kings and was uninhabited. In 1756, the King of Travancore conquered Changanacherry, and brought the place under his supremacy. A Church Mission Society missionary, Henry Baker, started coffee plantations, and under the regency of Sri Moolam Thirunal these became tea plantations.
Under the British Raj in India, Kuttikkanam became an up-market resort. Since at first there was no road but only a pathway, the British started the Aerial Ropeway Ltd, Travancore state's first public limited company. The summer palace of the Travancore kings was located in Kuttikkanam.
During the British period and after, manpower was brought to Kuttikkanam from various parts of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The descendants of these migrant workers constitute the major part of the population of Kuttikkanam.

POSITIVE THINKING
Positive thinking often starts with self-talk. Self-talk is the endless stream of unspoken thoughts that run through your head every day. These automatic thoughts can be positive or negative. Some of your self-talk comes from logic and reason. Other self-talk may arise from misconceptions that you create because of lack of information.
If the thoughts that run through your head are mostly negative, your outlook on life is more likely pessimistic. If your thoughts are mostly positive, you're likely an optimist — someone who practices positive thinking.
Understanding positive thinking and self-talk
Positive thinking doesn't mean that you keep your head in the sand and ignore life's less pleasant situations. Positive thinking just means that you approach the unpleasantness in a more positive and productive way. You think the best is going to happen, not the worst.Positive thinking often starts with self-talk. Self-talk is the endless stream of unspoken thoughts that run through your head every day.

why so late???
Every time you passed my way,
I heard my heart beat aloud,
Gifting a silent fear embraced
By a charming innocent smile;
Every single moment I thought of you,
It was the fear of that day ate me up,
Where you will give me a
Warm sayonara and I will
Hide my tears for you;
Every word I made with you,
I was afraid of my loneliness
In the absence of that beautiful
Words of yours, one day;
Every beautiful night when i
Invited you into my charming dreams,
I was scared if the dream
Go unrealized forever….
I thought you would be
Feeling the same I felt,
Dreaming the same I dreamt,
And missing me as I missed you…
I thought it would be hard
For you too as it was hard
For me to be without you….
But, the day came very soon,
The day that filled darkness
Inside my soul and mind..
You, my soul mate said,
A warm sayonara as in my darkest dreams;
Those hands of yours which I felt,
Would I rest forever,
Gave me a farewell hand…
I burned inside and for no reasons
Tears dropped out of my eyes…
I thought I have lost you forever,
But you lifted those arms again,
The one which gave me a farewell hand,
Asking me to hold it forever…
I refused for a moment, because
The inner I came up,
But else I know I would lose you forever…
And only now can I receive your gifted heart
To hold it close to mine forever…
I heard my heart beat aloud,
Gifting a silent fear embraced
By a charming innocent smile;
Every single moment I thought of you,
It was the fear of that day ate me up,
Where you will give me a
Warm sayonara and I will
Hide my tears for you;

THE REAL HARDCORE MUSCLE CAR
psychology
Are you new to the study of psychology? It may seem like a vast and daunting topic at first, but understanding a few basic facts can make it easier to get started. The following are just a few of the important things you need to know about this fascinating topic. Once you have a strong understanding of the basics, you will be better prepared to explore psychology in greater depth.
1. Psychology Is the Study of the Mind and Behavior
2. Psychology Uses Scientific Methods
3. Psychologists Take Many Different Perspectives
Topics and questions in psychology can be looked at in a number of different ways. Let's take the topic of violence as an example. Some psychologists may look at how biological influences contribute to violence, while other psychologists might look at factors like culture, family relationships, social pressure and situational variables influence violence. Some of the major perspectives in psychology include the:- Biological perspective
- Cognitive perspective
- Behavioral perspective
- Evolutionary perspective
- Humanistic perspective
4. Psychology Has a Many Subfields
There are many different branches of psychology. Introductory students often explore the basics of these various specialty areas, but further exploration of each individual field may depend on what course of study you select. Some of the biggest subfields within psychology are clinical psychology, personality psychology, cognitive psychology, developmental psychology and social psychology.5.Psychology Is Not Just About Therapy
When you think of psychology, do you envision a therapist with a notepad jotting down ideas as a client recounts childhood experiences? While therapy is certainly a big part of psychology, it is not the only thing that psychologists do. In fact, many psychologists don't work in the field of mental health at all. Psychology encompasses other areas including teaching, research and consulting. Psychologists work in a wide variety of settings, including:
- Colleges and universities
- Private corporations
- K-12 Schools
- Hospitals
- Government offices
6. Psychology Is All Around You
Psychology is not just an academic subject that exists only in classrooms, research labs and mental health offices. The principles of psychology can be seen all around you in everyday situations. The television commercials and print ads you see everyday rely on psychology to develop marketing messages that influence and persuade people to purchase the advertised products. The websites you visit on a regular basis utilize psychology to understand how people read, use and interpret online information.
7. Psychology Explores Both Real-World and Theoretical Issues
As you begin your study of psychology, it might seem like some of the theories and research you learn about do not really apply to real-life problems. It is important to remember, however, that psychology is both and applied and theoretical subject. Some researchers focus on adding information to our overall body of knowledge about the human mind and behavior (known as basic research), while other concentrate directly on solving problems and applying psychological problems to real-world situations (known as applied research)
role of youth towards a corruption free society...!!
Corruption takes birth in a society when its citizens fail to believe
that the nation is a common property of all its citizens and the
generation yet to come. Every situation, where you leave truth, you are
giving birth to corruption, no matter how simple or how complicated is
the matter. If so, you and I would have been corrupt at least once over
the time.
Consider any segment or sector of our society. Be it education, health, politics, legal, media, economical, social, business, anything. You will find the dark marks of corruption everywhere. Education has become a money making business, where it has become a right of the rich. Number of self financing institutes increase day by day. Where will the poor go? The prices of the necessary drugs have gone up and the money allotted for basic health facilities not properly utilized. The result is ill health. Where did the money go then? If you have money, you can win any election here. The influence of money and muscle power, perpetual succession, everything has influenced our democracy so much. Any criminal can win his case if he has money. People have started losing the faith in democracy. You can create news if you have money. Media has, to an extent lost its sense and has become sensational. Inflation affects only the middle class and levels that come under. Our businesses have forgotten the meaning of corporate social responsibility to an extent. These are all in fact, true condition of our society. And this is why our economy is addressed as corrupt.
Since, birth the causes for a man to become corrupt are plenty, starting from the very influence of the family and circumstances that bought him up to the enmity towards his own nation. The red- tapism and limitations of the legal framework within the country are some other major reasons that have resulted to corruption in large numbers.
The nation belongs to its youth. They are the makers of tomorrow. What they do today will reflect in the society tomorrow. To live in a society, that is corruption free, we need people with quality, of mind and thoughts. If those people come forward to build a strong nation, our dream of a corruption free society is never far away.
A country like India, where a majority of its population is the youth (more than 60%), there are a lot these huge proportion, including me could contribute to my nation. It is the same for any other country, whatever the proportion of youth is.
Corruption is one of the greatest evil that shakes the backbone of any society. More than a matter of need, corruption has become a subculture, a common practice, a necessary evil. Faced with this trouble people have grown used to it, it is part of everyday life. If this evil is eradicated from the society, the greatest threat to development is over. Youth of India can do a great deal in this matter but we must be careful so that they do not take up misguide ideals and ideas because it is going to have the opposite effect. The main problem of the youth in India is that they are not a part of the society in its full sense they come under parents, and are guided by parties, and age old ideas that has no relevance in today’s IT age.
They must fearlessly take up politics, to give new dimensions to it, give sense to it and must provide what the society really needs. Law must ensure protection and rights to its citizens who believe in it. People who believe in the purity of knowledge and the importance of education must take up the responsibility of providing knowledge to the young minds. They must be able to teach the values of life. Every profession comes with an ethics and the youth must not only be able to keep up the ethics, but also influence the society to build a life oriented towards values and ethics. They must be able to uphold and bring truth to the people through media. They must be able to apply sense and act wise. They must be courageous to stand for truth, raise their voice against injustice. The youth must strive to reach top positions who can then frame policies for the nation which would bring in development and prosperity, truth and justice, thereby a corruption free society.
The youth must be able to read the pulse of their nation. They must build a sense of patriotism towards their nation.

think critically!!!
Blind- It is not in the physical sense that I call a person blind but
blind in the sense that he is unable to see the other persons stand
point. Individuals falling under this category are persons who blindly
believe in something like a doctrine, a group, a religion without
taking the pain to investigate into the false believe they uphold. Once
they are into any movement it is almost impossible to convince them to
consider something else. They blindly follow what their leaders and
become stalwart supporter of what they believe.
Don’t be blinded by your believes but ensure that you consider your opponent stand point.
Think critically.

they will never come back...!!!
I can’t look unto you,
My eyes are blared;
I want to hold your arms,
But I can’t, I want to tell
You something, but I can’t….
I have never spoken to you,
I even do not know you either
But, my little girl you bring me tears
In my eyes, I wish I could get you back….
I cannot stop thinking about you
And my dear, why did you do this?
Why did you forget the strong shoulders
Of your dad and the warmth of
Your mother’s love?
Leaving a space that nobody can
Ever fill, you left us, I may
Forget you someday, my
Busy life will take me some other way,
But, there is someone who will
Never forget the joy you gave them,
The sense you added into their lives….
They will never be able to live
Their life the way they lived with you….

are u truely independant???
u meet many people at many places. sometimes a moment is enough that
he/she captures a place in our heart. we would whisper to ourselves
“he/she is of my type.” and we simply start loving them…sometimes
unconditionally…
they become a part of our life,they are so much considered and held in our heart…it would be so late whenyou realize that your heart has over ruled your mind and now your mind cannot command your heart to forget that person…
life flies light without expectations… hope lighten your life, but realities pains you…but, you cannot live without expecting and hopes give you the courage to move on…
if i argue from both the ends, the verdict would be so hard…i would end up leaving the question, are we all truely independant, even to love someone???
