What do I do with a custard apple

Guys don't get me wrong I love custard apple ; it is just that I don’t know how to eat it hassle free; I love the smell and taste but how does one eat it; it is messy. So I start to eat it - you cannot cut it like a papaya and you cannot  eat it like apple. It is not a kiwi and not at all like a berry. It does not come with an instruction manual ; it stares at me like almost challenging me to eat. I have to spit out the seeds and it is messy if I eat with hand. Do I try spoon , knife or a fork ? Well it is challenging I just wish that it should not have been so tasty - so the struggle continues

Looking at old photographs

I truly felt a connection with the past when I and my family were perched on top of all old albums. They have a distinct charm of their own and I was bestowed.  We all even felt better connected to each other - sometimes happy memories of past spread a thick layer of happiness in present

Breeze and tranqulity

When I land in Bangalore and this happens every time - the breeze flows in my hair - the weather is awesome and place is familiar - more than anything I know ; I wonder if that is because if it is nice or because it is familiar

I worry

A lot of our life depends on what state we are and the country is ; society is - I worry about my old age ; my family, my country and so on ... I know worrying will not get me anywhere ...can I stop the process and start living in the present ...I am loving my brevity :)

Today is another day to learn..

Is life about growing only is not not about stopping to grow - why do we feel as if we are always walking on an incline everyday - that we have to keep climbing all the time
I want to sit down and rest - recline on a good chair with a book in my hand ; all this sitting on a lawn with perhaps a white picket fence (!) . I have to add here a good breeze blowing and I can feel it in my hair . They say imagine the life you want and it will be yours ! Keep dreaming :)

time

Tests of time - time being the best healer - time by Stephen Hawking - well what is this ever elusive time and how do we make it work for us

15th August

Is it just me or is Indian Independence day losing its importance - I think when I was growing up we used to look forward to the event - the question that plagues my mind is - did my parents also look forward this day back then - when I brood over the fact it seems they did

What I love about this day is that it can be celebrated irrespective of religion or age ( The big two differences that exist in our society today)

I want to ......

Well I want to do a lot of things some go against y fabric in day to day life - how to lead a life in line with our fabric - well sometimes just do it myway

Idyllic Sundays with rainfall pattering my window

Was watching the rain, hearing the rain and was smelling the rain from my window ; I love the way rain feels on my skin even without feeling it – I am too busy surrounded by my thoughts and to do lists to go out. More than image will take a beating if I go out and watch rain,- so it will be heard and seen only till I overcome my barriers and constraints
