Look at yourself in the mirror

The Habit Coach on YouTube by Ashdin Doctor offers bite sized self help tips and is recommended by Amit Varma, of India Uncut and The Seen And The Unseen fame. 

In one of the first episodes I heard,  Ashdin asks 'When you look into a mirror, do you see your flaws,  your best self, or do you not look long enough to know?' When you see a friend,  do you see their parts, or their complete being? So, why do you see your individual flaws? So stop being too critical of yourself.  

Every few days, so and look at yourself in the mirror.  You may not like what you see.  You may not recognize who you see.  But, have a conversation with that person. Talk about how you feel, how far you've come, how you've done in life. Find a true connect with yourself. See yourself as a complete individual.

Tokyo Trial on Netflix

Watched 'Tokyo Trial' on Netflix, about the trial of the Japanese after WWII. Very well presented, combining archival footage of the trail, along with a dramatization of what happened behind the scenes. 

I would've liked more focus and elaboration on the sole dissenting opinion of the Indian judge, Binod Pal, (played by Irrfan Khan, a small role) not only because he was Indian, but also because he is the foil for the other characters (the story could've been narrated by him) resulting in various deliberations, before the hypocrisy of Western Powers is exposed.

Starry starry night!

Tried my hand at one of the creations by a master. At the end, what emerged can only be called an inspiration.
