Why?

We the people, are such strange strange creatures. Seriously! And that includes me.

We all have our moments of joy and sorrow. When joy is visiting we never ever ask why...but when sorrow comes calling, our first question is WHY?

Why this contradiction.....why are we made like this? At a time when we are at our lowest.....this question haunts our mind, plunging us deeper into sorrow. It happens with every single one of us. Most of us question.....whyyyyyy???

I wish God had fixed this particular default in our system. It would have made life a lot easier.....not to have to wonder why.

The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me


It’s exactly a year since I joined twitter and it was the best thing that ever happened to me. My world has changed so much, for the better, since I became a part of this wonderful family.

It would be difficult to explain to someone who is not on it coz it’s beyond comprehension. It is a big huge world full of love and support and caring and sharing.

I have met so many wonderful people there. Some have gone on to become great friends, there for me 24x7, sharing my joy and lifting me out of my sorrow every single day. I won’t take names coz that wouldn’t be fair but each one of them knows how much they mean to me. They are an integral part of my life and I can’t do without them.

Twitter ROCKS and I love you Tweeple!

Shanti Shanti Shanti

Shanti.....I'm not talking about a woman by that name, in case you're wondering. I am talking about peace. Peace around me.

The last week has been crazy with a houseful of relatives which included two kids. Now don't get me wrong.....I loved having them over.......but I missed my quiet time with self. Time to be with my own thoughts.

There was always something going on. People around, talking and generally creating mayhem in my life. My room, which is my own private haven, an open house to all. Every time I locked myself in, someone came knocking.

They left today and finally there is shanti!

This Happens Only In India

I took this picture a couple of days ago, you can guess looking at it, at a railway station. And believe you me, I was struck dumb though I should not have been. After all this is India.

Nizamuddin Railway Station, platform number 1, the train just pulling in and we have not just these two in the picture but a whole lot of donkeys strolling through the platform as though this is something that they do on a daily basis.

They probably do....but I saw it for the first time and frankly all I could do was shake my head in wonder and gape at them.....dumbfounded.

What's more, one poor donkey somehow managed to get off the platform on to the track in the path of the approaching train and was on his way to donkey heaven with all of us watching in horror when someone, probably one of the owners, came to his rescue and pushed him on to the next track.

I must say.......this happens only in India!

Hello Blog.....I Miss You.

Its been a case of long time no see my darling blog and I feel terrible about it. So I thought I'd say hello.

The last few weeks have been a bit chaotic and as a result, my mind has been allover the place.....which BTW is normal for me. But I miss you and I know that you miss the attention that I have not been giving you.

I hope that I get over this distracted state of mind soon and we go back to spending some quality time together. Until then....please miss me too.
