IOTD …. Image of the day, #401 …. “One of Santa’s Reindeer: Which One?“

~~December 6, 2015~~ 

HAVE YOU BEEN NAUGHT Y OR NICE?

I’M CHECKING TWICE

Santa Claus’s reindeer form an imaginary team of flying reindeer traditionally held to pull the sleigh of Santa Claus and help him deliver Christmas gifts.

They are:

Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, and Blitzen.

I’m one of them. Which one do you think I am?

The 1823 poem by Clement C. Moore “A Visit from St. Nicholas” (also known as “The Night Before Christmas” or “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas“) is largely credited for the contemporary Christmas lore that includes the eight flying reindeer and their names.

The relevant segment of the poem reads:

When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
but a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny rein-deer,
with a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.

More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and call’d them by name:
“Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now, Prancer, and Vixen!
“On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Dunder and Blixem!

“To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
“Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky;

So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,

“As it appears in … full read/full credit”

~IN HER OWN WORDS~

“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”

Google Doodle for today …. Christmas Day 2014!!

~~December 25, 2014~~

Merry Christmas Google Doodle: ‘Tis the Season latest doodle begins ‘Happy Holidays’ with an amusing journey!

December 25 is here and the celebrations for the biggest festivals for the people of Christian community have begun globally. Yes, ‘Tis the Season‘, and the search engine giant Google is celebrating Christmas with a short-yet-cute movie as its ‘Doodle’.

As soon as one lands on the homepage of Google, it will see the door dressed in green color which resembles the color of the X’mas tree. The video takes you through a lovely journey beginning with a child who ages through the video (doodle) and finally ends being a grandpa hanging a gift for its pet. The latest ‘Google Doodle’ has perfectly depicted the beginning of ‘Happy Holidays’.

Google’s latest doodle is a motion doodle, in which a child begins from skating on the road, and ends up being a boy who is cheerfully riding a bicycle in the park. As the doodle progresses, the bicycling boy becomes a man riding an ice-skeeter. The amusing Google doodle then shows the man to be a family man on the ice-mountains with his family cherishing the cold weather. After the adventurous tour in the mountains, it is a sea voyage. The brief video takes the user to various stages of man’s life in an eventful journey.

The cutest part of the latest Google Christmas doodle is that the man is mow a grandpa and visits her grand-daughter’s house. It doesn’t ends there, as the generous grandpa hangs a bone as Santa’s gift for the dog (pet) that is sleeping besides the warmth of chimney.

The delighting ‘Christmas Google Doodle’ is the third doodle by the search-engine company in three days. On the eve of Christmas, the doodle depicted a young man in beards dressed in red suit dragging his sleigh, the same way a Santa Claus pulls his gifts-filled reindeers. The first doodle by Google marked the beginning of the festivities to come in next few days. The motion-doodle showed little children waving hands from the sleigh, which is driven by a Santa Claus who has descended from the moon.

Christmas 2014 is finally here and the season of long holidays has finally begun. The holidays extend till the New Year and people of age groups celebrate and enjoy the winter vacations with much joy and cheer.

We at India.com wish you and your family a Merry Christmas 2014!
