  • Another year

    No idea where it went! I have been meaning to write something or the other… and always lost the need for it before I came to the blog! 

    Today is no different, except that I made a bit of extra effort!

    That one extra second of effort that stops you from screaming, that one extra second of patience that would stop you from doing something irreversible, that one second of thought that would have given  you the idea you’ve waiting for!

    That little extra effort, that little extra second… usually bigger than the whole year that passes by in a wink!

  • Positive India Post # 2 – Bio-toilets in Trains

    Starting this series to collect positive news and motivating articles about India and Indians… Thanks to The Better India website for the inspiration! I would make an attempt to collect more positivity about India and Indians, and put it here!

    Here is an article on 800 coaches from Pune being fitted with Bio-Toilets! I have been in love in Indian Railways for as long as I remember, and I always feel great about something new coming up related to them!

  • It was an orange joker

    Its amazing how much I can learn from my daughter!

    We were at Bunnings yesterday to buy some hooks for a few photo frames and the keys, and they had a jumping castle and some games setup outside! They had some games where a kid would need to put some balls in the mouth of a joker, there was a moving pulley inside, and the ball would end up in of the number slots. If you get the number listed as a winning number, you get a prize!

    I remember the winning numbers were 5 and 30. I remember that Veda used the yellow ping-pong balls, I remember there were 4 balls, I also remember the color of some flowers that were on display in the garden area!

    However Veda was talking to her friend in the evening, and I heard her telling which color Joker was this! And it just struck me, that Veda remember almost every single detail of that experience, and I didn’t. There is no rocket science to this. I now remember that was an orange joker, but it took me a while!
