Indianomics!

I have heard a lot of my friends falling flat on face when it comes to the magic word “Love”.

What is love?

Wikipedia explains it as follows – “Love is the emotion of strong affection and personal attachment.”

People fall in love with a lot of things, but the most emotional of course is a human being in love with another human being. Nothing compares to this feeling of being loved and loving someone more than you love yourself.

However, being in India you can sure come up with a lot of exceptions… Of late, you hear it often on the national news channels about honor killings. What two people on this earth did was just loved each other and wanted to live with each other. What hurt their parents / relatives is exactly that?

Love happens. You can’t decide whom to love. When a mother gives birth to a child, she loves him/her because they are special to her, and not because she has to love them.

India is a magical country in many ways than one.

The one technology that I really wish that would exist would be to get rid of the caste differences in people’s brains and teach them the real meaning of Love. To attain something that would rather be used for one’s good. I know I am sounding really superficial here, and not with a sound mindset at present. I want something invented that would get rid of inter caste differences.

On the first Sunday of August, the whole world celebrates the most celebrated occasion, the Friendship Day! I have created two cute images that reflects the importance of being together. On this day, I would like to thank all who been my friends, who have been with all my joy and sorrow.

Also to thank those non-living Toys that I have been playing with in childhood. Call it Toy Story 3 effect.

Wishing you all a very Happy Friendship Day

Wishing you all a very Happy Friendship Day

Just composed a few quotes, so thought I should pen down these.

Brightness of Sun lives up earth,

Lives of some nourish you up,

Life is a station that stands long,

Its a beautiful song!

This is what an uncle in my home town used to tease me. Knowingly that I get irritated and walk to him and teach him that he was wrong. My 4 year old mind never realized it then that he wanted me to come close to him and play with him…

He was not a relative, but someone who maintained a relationship that went beyond the designation of a relative.

I always argued with him and he loved it. Slowly we turned close and were enjoying eachother’s company. He knew that I liked candies as against Chocolate or any of the Cadburies. When he saw me for the first time, it was during the navaratri festival we used to celebrate in Kerala. I was running here and there and he found me really cute. He picked me up and was looking for my mother. No to hand me over, but to ask whether “can I take him with me forever”.

Such was the affection that I shared with Navin Mama that today I am in deep pain, because he is no longer with us.

He always was fond of children and loved all children in our locality and elsewhere, but for me he was a special person. I pray to god that he rest in peace. Love you mama.
