In 1631, Shah Jahan, emperor during the Mughal empire's period of greatest prosperity, was grief-stricken when his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, a Persian princess, died during the birth of their 14th child, Gauhara Begum.[13] Construction of the Taj Mahal began in 1632.[14] The court chronicles of Shah Jahan's grief illustrate the love story traditionally held as an inspiration for Taj Mahal.[15][16] The principal mausoleum was completed in 1648 and the surrounding buildings and garden were finished five years later. Emperor Shah Jahan himself described the Taj in these words:[17]
Should guilty seek asylum here,
Like one pardoned, he becomes free from sin.
Should a sinner make his way to this mansion,
All his past sins are to be washed away.
The sight of this mansion creates sorrowing sighs;
And the sun and the moon shed tears from their eyes.
In this world this edifice has been made;
To display thereby the creator's glory.
herc, I accidentally deleted Sara's shoutout. So sorry but it was an accident. Please apologize to Sara on my behalf. Would you also please tell her to add it again? Thanks!
And it's a really cool feature. I wanted to add something similar at Murray's world but couldn't quite convince Mark or he probably didn't understand what I was talking about.
I have no idea what a "shoutout" is.
anyway check this out. I ran into a touring teaching pro from the united kingdom today. he is running a club here on the coast these days. he is a huge Federer fan but he loves any murray too.
I will go see him at his club next week and see if he can give us some ideas. and of course I will ask him to join us here.
That sounds pretty cool, herc. Hope that takes place and he joins Camelot.
Since Sara has the Admin access, she has added a feature called "Shoutbox" at the right hand pane. Do you not see it?

I will look for it now.
I don't know anything about these forums. I am not even sure what it means.
how would have Federer fared against peak Sampras on that Wimbledon grass?
I have a feeling that Sampras would have been able to hold his own.
for 2 reasons:
1. his serve was just too big. both the first and the second.
2. I have to rate him mentally tougher than Federer
Pete basically never gave you much of a chance on his serve. so you the pressure was almost always on your own side of the net. you not only had the pressure to hold your own serve, you also had to worry about breaking Pete.
and you just cant win if you cant break.

Do you know why? Because what he built was the temple of love and love washes away everything. It is said, God is made of love and all the meaningful values are within it.
But how come you are so much in love with it? Did true love ever happen to you like the way it happened to Shah Jahan?

well I think the story behind it is fascinating. lot of people don't even know what this monument is.
most here think it is a temple for example.
so I just wanted to talk a little about the story.
no I am not a man of love. I love them and then I leave them. many women have fallen in love with me but I tend to be quite disciplined in my own philosophy of it.
how about you? have you fallen in love often?
click on this. this is the club that he runs. I am talking about that teaching pro from the united kingdom.
http://www.diamondheadms.org/Tennis/TennisPhotoGallery.aspxby the way we talked a little about Nole today. he said that nole's level was just insane at WTF. I would have to agree.
I think that was the best I have ever seen him play.

And what is your own philosophy of it?
I have fallen in love often, yes but I was truly in love with only one person. At times it was unbearable and sometimes, I thought I wouldn't be able to get out of it like ever. I say this because there was a lot of complicacy around it, but after it finally took off I kind of started to fall out of that great love. It's possible I didn't want to commit in the end. There's a lot to explore about self as well, you see.

Nole was pretty sick at WTF, yes. Good for him. AO looks so interesting already but I want Andy back so badly there.
Will have to go now. Will catch u later. And reply to your PM as well.

No, I have heard of the Taj Mahal and may have seen a picture of a long time ago, but not in such vivid color, or in such a wide frame. It is absolutely breathtaking.
I loved the backstory as well.
Every day you learn something new and this place is great for that. I am learning things I have never considered before by delving into Emma's World and all the things that you do as well.
There really is something for everyone here.
I am enjoying the peaceful feel here at Camelot, but a wonderful forum like this will not remain a secret.

I am glad you are enjoying Camelot.
Camelot is for cool folks like you lady TT.
by the way check your "rant and rave" board. it is growing already.
can you imagine what it is going to look like in about a year when we have a few more folks here?
sara and laurice will keep religion at the very forefront of Camelot.
I am seeing nothing but a bright future for this place that offers a unique proposition. it offers more than just tennis:
it offers freedom and flexibility
it offers respect and honor
it offers peace, quiet, calm, and serenity
there are no rules or regulations here and zero requirements or demands. people can come and go as they please and do as they please.
nobody is ever going to bother them here.
general swordtennis boxing center is going to be something special about a year or two down the road.
I just started a "swordtennis boxer in the spotlight" series.
the first boxer that came to mind was the great argentine boxer named "Carlos Monzon". his story is fascinating beyond belief.
we continue to build for the future.
I didn't realize that there were 2 religion boards, and yes, I am loving Camelot.
