Thank you Ganga!
By the time you guys read this, I will be on the road. On my way to Rishikesh and it will be my second trip in a month. I feel so so blessed at this moment. I know it is the holy river herself who has blessed me. I went there last month with my …
Unaffected
I would like to remain unaffected… really, I would. But I can’t. Kudos to the Indian newscasters of today! They present the stories in such a manner that I can’t just stay unaffected. Try as I might. I wish I could take the news as just news and not feel the emotions that melancholy stories …
The “Pori” Mystery
My daughter is two and we moved to Kolkata a year ago. She has picked up a few words in Bangla at pre-school and her speech has smatterings of those. Often, we do not understand what she is saying! A few weeks back she says, “Mumma main Pori Hoon” (Mom, I am a Pori) I …
Nokia

I just wanna write
I want to write again. I haven’t written anything significant in a long long time now. God alone knows why. probably because I felt that I didn’t have any significant idea or intelligent thought to blog about. But today I realised that waiting has not helped. This blog is for me. It is my space …
