| Seva Ram! | |
|
|
| “I don’t want it short; I want to make a ponytail” the little girl declared. I watched with interest as the six something girl explained to her mother and the hair dresser just how long she wanted her hair to be and how much hair she wanted in the front. Reminded me of Seva Ram…Seva Ram, in his loose white pajamas, a dull coloured shirt and a Nehru...

|
|
| Driving through San Diego, we stopped for a bite to eat at a small breakfast joint. A corner of the eatery was occupied by a group of elderly people whiling away their morning hours, chatting, napping and reading Amongst the group, all of whom were in their seventies, sat a frail looking woman – conspicuous, not only because of her loud throaty lau...

| Of love - Old & New | |
|
|
| Amusingmuse, is in a contemplative mood, mulling over love and life in general, and thinking…How easy is it for people in love to come to terms with the ‘Exes’ in the lives of their partner? “I am still friends with my Ex!” “My Ex and I still share a great friendship minus the passion!” “I loved the food my ‘Ex’s’ mom cooked!”. “I was discussing th...

| Dreams - actions and reactions! | |
|
|
| Occasionally, I talk in my sleep – many of us do and mostly it is a few incomprehensible sentences or maybe a few groans and grunts. My case is slightly different, though not a regular ‘dream talker’ when I do talk – I sure talk! Any change in environment or location invariably means a couple of nights of chatter and then peace.My roommate tells me...

| This morning an auto driver said 'thank you' when I handed him the fare and added 'have a nice day!' While I nearly fell out of the auto at this unaccustomed courtesy - I was elated! A single sentence from him made me smile, made me forget the eight other auto rickshaw drivers who refused to ply a distance of less than a km, in the same morning. Mi...
