I AM READY TO WAIT…



Relationships carry a lot of scores in this risky exam called life. You need someone for providing you a packet of solace, at the time you are in need. It can be from your parents, bros, sis, relatives and friends. Life will surely help at different times to meet the one who could be your comfort.
The real question is how you will know someone is going to be the one you are looking for... I have a bunch of special ones, both from family as well as from the outside world. But now there is something new happening. These days, there is someone unique, who I want to keep much longer. Even a short chat with that one will make me a different, confident, persona. Inspiration and support that I need can be felt even from the simple presence of that person. That’s why I want to keep that person much longer. No idea what it really means, how it will turn out in the future… will I miss those hands or hold it forever??? Let’s wait; time can help you in answering most of the questions…

Let the souls Rest In Peace!!!


A tragedy on last Saturday shook the entire nation; it was when a fight journey found a catastrophic end. It’s awful when lives end so suddenly. Prayers are there for the families whose loved ones passed away in the plane crash. O’ God, let the souls rest in peace.

IN FOND MEMORY


This is in fond memory of my Grand pa, who signed out of this world ten years ago!!! He is the first one in my list of ‘persons I am missing’. When I was a child, he is the one who told me stories, taught how to pray and my role-model on how to be a humble leader. Simply one of the best personalities I have ever met. Miss u pa!

Papa's gone to buy sweets

Hey peeps, am working for children at my new office. For me, it’s really interesting to work with them. Here in our society family possess a great role in converting the child to a responsible citizen. They keep the authority to take decisions for him even in his 20's. One thing I find really difficult is that in our country parents make up stories all the time to Children. So, for example, Ebin is looking for his Papa, when he's away on a business trip. Rather than say he's working and he'll be back later, the family say 'Papa's gone to buy sweets (Mittaayi/paappam)'. Why not just tell him the truth? I don't like because, apart from not being true, and that Ebin expects his papa to reappear - with sweets (are sweets really better than Papa anyway?!)- it is treating kids as if they're stupid. Which they're not.

The curious Incident of the dog in the night- time


It’s a Sunday morning… and I'm spending it lazily reading Mark Haddon. It’s an interesting book with a long title “The curious Incident of the dog in the night- time”. The protagonist of the story is an autistic savant and while he's a whiz at math and science, human emotions are particularly complex for him. As the novel opens, he tells us "I know all of the countries of the world and their capital cities, and every prime number up to 7,057." He finds a neighbor's dog, named Wellington, murdered and with the help of his teacher, Siobhan, he decides to write a book about his attempt to solve this mystery. Its how the story goes on…

BTW I got a job, last Wednesday and started working Thursday onwards. I have to travel two hours in train to reach the workplace and hope this space will be filled with Mark Haddon. See Ya!
