Memories




 ‘Do you know the story of the Three Magi and the Star?’ asked the 10 year old. ‘What about a story about Dhruva Nakshtra?’ replied the grandmother.



They listened in rapture about the child prince, scorned by his step mother, fighting for his father’s affection who sought and was  blessed by(the Hindu God) Vishnu, rewarded by the Rishis (holy men) for his devotion, steadfastness and perseverance to be the Pole Star…



She tracked the skies, as in past years…in an ever changing world; he became her symbol of permanency, like the love of family and friends, the happy memories rekindled.

Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows -1


Just back from watching HP7 ... My take on it...
Nice effects...the movie was quite close to the books but still quite a bit left out....
Not as good as the previous movies in my opinion..., The film dragged at places, the actors looked stiff in some parts....
never emotionally connected with the characters unlike the earlier ones.....
Somehow Voldemort and his death eaters especially at the Malfoy Manor didn't seem scary enough....
But loved the wand fights...and the scene at the ministry where the Golden Trio use polyjuice potion and also the scene of  8 Potters...
All in all it was an okay watch....hoping the finale is more gripping...

My Widgets Love



My blogging journey has brought out the kid in the candy store/toy store in me....the reason : my fascination for widgets/gadgets.

I keep adding, modifying and discarding them right and left...Sadly this spree also has heartbreak moments ...

Like saying adios to Darth Vader and Aristotle quotes as they slowed down my page.... so much so that even I had to spend many blank, anxious moments before my page loaded...giving up Sudoku was hard for an game addict like me but I spent more time on solving it than typing useful (??? who am I kidding) words...

But some stayed on like old friends who never quite exit from our lives....some ego boosting that show how much we are liked...some that tell the world that happens to peep in, what we believe in....

All in all they make up our blog as much as personal input does...

Its takes just a jiffy to admire those creative souls who make the job of presenting an aesthetically pleasing blog into " the blog art for dummies" .

And me...I am off to add a bookshelf to my story blog...... ;D

The Young Teacher

                                                           
What is it about kids that makes us multifaceted and multitasking...recently I have become a horse, a dog, an elephant, Nemo even Sher khan (jungle book)  with sword fighting (read cricket bats) skills..
I have turned composer, on the spot story teller, walking talking dictionary...one swear word like shit and hell breaks loose...wonder if anyone knows the joys of being reprimanded by a 3 year old....
All in all , sometimes I feel I am back in school and at times like a 3 year old myself with fancy tricks up my sleeve....

Kind Souls


I journeyed forth,
ploughing through words...
Never contemplating,
but paused here and there,
wondering If I dared  
to bare the chaos 
that is my mind.

Kind souls won't let me flounder,
keep me afloat...
through the tides of convenience.
Make it meaningful...
Every fork end of tales I reach
These roads and forks traversed,
alone I started 
but not any more...

Kind souls won't let me flounder,
keep me afloat...
through the tides of convenience.
Make it meaningful...




(To all those who have been with me as my walk progresses....)

Festivals And Holidays

Funny, its was Halloween in One part of the world last week and it will be festival of lights in another part this week....
Diwali is fond memories....waking up before dawn to burst crackers...new clothes that we paraded in...sweets gorged to the point of tummy aches...visitors galore...
those fun filled days are lost somewhere...
As I pass by the busy shoppers , the shops and malls.....it didn't feel good yet.....not till I booked for a family vacation....
Now I am truly in the holiday mood... off gallivanting ....
See you all in three weeks time...
by the way....don't forget my existence....


Like Arnie, I WILL BE BACK.......
