Monsoon..!

Ever woke up in the morning feeling its such a cozy day..?

Ever felt like heaven in your couch with a nice book to read..?

Ever reminded by a warm fireplace the warmth of a dear one's hug..?

Ever wrapped in your blanket,gazing into nothing all the way to glory..?

Ever played with a rain droplet that slipped on your wooden window sill..?

Ever looked at a street through the name you wrote on the foggy window..?

Ever been welcomed by the morning drizzle and thought this is the best it could get..?

Ever sipped a cup of brewing hot coffee and felt intoxicated..?

Ever thought the mild voice of someone humming by your ear is all the sound you want to be hearing always..?

Wonder what all a beautiful monsoon morning can do.. :)

I wish...

I wish heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of
you today but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and
days before that too..


I think of you in silence.. I often speak your name. All I have are memories
 and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part.
 God has you in his arms, I have you in my heart.......
Love you..

…Aha.. look how far we’ve come..

Still feels like its just a few days since i met you.. The prank you played by making me look for you, when you were actually standing right in front of me, the lunch at Casa Picola, the ice cream and the long walk in moonlight.. These are still so fresh in memory..

Has it been a year already?? Wasnt it just yesterday that was our wedding day? when all around us were tensed on how the wedding would happen, we were filled with the joy of getting married and were having fun laughing all thru the wedding events..

a full year... wow!!

Everyone told us the first year of marriage is the toughest. Really? Was it? For me, nothing really changed much.. and the ones that did were all for the good.. we now come home to each other everyday instead of just quickly meeting over the weekends or at some random occasions.. :-)

Actually, i still find the word 'Husband' very alien.. It still startles me when someone refers to you and asks, "what does your husband do?" It takes me a few seconds to realise that they mean YOU! To me, you are just you.. my SMILEY,.. the man i've known for so many years.. the guy whos been a great friend and continues to be so.. the soulmate with whom i have the fondest of memories and the partner for life
with whom i continue building a lot of dreams and fulfilling them..
So, what should we celebrate? a year of being "Married" or 5 years of knowing each other? Either ways, today i just wanted to let you know that You make my life beautiful and you are the reason for my happiness.. :-)

Happy Anniversary.. I Love You.

Nostalgia..

Heavy Rains.. Eat hot bajji and pakkoda.. Schools closed.. Postpone homework.. Play in the rain..
Feel guilty about homework in the evening.. Visit the nearby temple.. Come back home.. Eat bajjis and pakkoda..

Power cut.. Finish homework in the candle light.. Amma would be cursing in the background.. Have dinner with family sitting on the floor..

Sleep listening to the thavalai satham.. It is nostalgic, but I dont miss my school days now..

No homework.. Sigh! Life is good now.. Now it is only work from home! :-)

Perspective!

We had a session at my workplace today on 'Perspective' and how you can develop yourself with a positive attitude.. The trainer spoke about how there could be a situation and two of them could see the same situation in completely different ways.. Its up to us to make the most out of any situation..
He then told a story which went like this..

There was a man who owned a dog and a cat.. He took care of both of them very well.. Gave them rich food, took them to the veterinarian doctor whenever required and made sure that they are both healthy and happy.

The Dog looked at the person and thought to itself : This man is so good. He takes care of me so well.. gives me the best of foods, keeps me happy always.. HE MUST BE GOD!

The Cat on the other hand thought : This man is so good. He takes care of me so well.. gives me the best of foods, keeps me happy always.. I MUST BE GOD..!! :-)

So, Its all a matter of perspective isnt it? Just be positive.. Look for an opportunity in every little event and Success will be yours! ;-)
