I wish i were in polka dots.....

-

It was a day like any other in college.The boring old class, ever green friends, always stern staff(I've never seen them smile truly).Life as usual or so I thought.It was life as usual till my lunch break.I was eating with my 2 friends.We were going finish our lunch.At that time we saw a small girl.I think that she was around 4-5 year of age.A very pretty angel I must say.The most beautiful thing on her was her hair next to it I loved her dress,it was a pretty white dress with red polka dots.She was picture perfect and head turning.

There will be elaborate floral arrangement in front of the Christ's statue in the mess hall.Her was at first delighted and plainly glad to see the flowers.Her happiness seemed to so evident on her glowing eyes.She couldn't keep her fidgeting fingers away from the flowers.Her innocence in doing it was what I loved too dearly.At first she hesitated and then felt as if it was her own territory. She started to do the flower decor in her own way. I liked the way she sought ease in a new place and spot.As we grow old we lose this ease.We feel alienated from everything.All that we are not used to becomes so new.

I learned form my angel in polka dots today that we must do all that we like even those small lovable things which we thought that was too absurd for us to do in public.Let us cherish the child in us.Lets do what we like with a smile like my angel in polka dots.......

    Nice article.. True, people do lose out on many things because of holding back their desires.

Where shall I begin and where shall I end. I must  first thank Rajesh for suggesting this book. It was truly mind blowing. For those who have been in Vineeth Swaroop's class: "This book is like 132 page one on one discussion with VS himself about God and what not!" I have always been a fan of Scott Adams cartoon "Dilbert". This is Scott at his best. I do not know how to comment on this book for I feel belittled in front of it. I would suggest that all of you must read it. But it comes with a warning, do brush up on your knowledge in probability, astronomy, history and everything else. This book is no joy ride but take you into another state of consciousness. I am a person who is never felt short of words. There are two things that made me feel so this month: Questions by the one and only VS in accounts class and when i am currently trying to describe this book. One might wonder why on earth did I begin a book review when I am certainly out of words to descr...

Surya just stared at the display screen in Dubai airport.His flight was delayed by an hour.He mechanically stared at his Diesel watch.It showed 12 midnight.His flight inbound to Chennai was postponed from 1a.m. to 2a.m.Well he had nothing much to do other than to start reading his novel.He was a big fan of Robin Cook.Surya moved to gate 5 and found a calm place and sat down there with his book. He was just in his second page when he heard"Excuse me sir! are you going to Chennai?"Surya is by nature a nice person.But not at fist acquaintance you can't even get a smile form his lips till the third meeting.His physique contributed to that mystique feel.He was almost the perfect example for the phrase tall dark and handsome.He was not a beauty contest winner but in some way did have all the charms required to make any girl go gaga.Surya just nodded as a reply to the man who asked the question.Ramu was the man who asked it to him.He was a married man.He was around 35 years of a...

God a concept?

I have often pondered about my conversion for atheist to a fairly strong theist. I remember that not so long ago my thoughts on God had proclivity towards atheism. But there has slowly but surely a change. From a person who used to say "There is no God!" to a person who says "God is ubiquitous!" is quiet surprising when I think about it. I don't believe in idols in spite of being a Hindu. I believe in pantheism. It makes a lot of sense and brings order to all chaos in life. One might think why I am writing about my faith and point of view. It was just to project my stand before we seeing the bone of contention. Recently, my results for the previous semester had come. I had got 87.4%. It was not the best but good considering the frugal effort which went into it. A miracle in human terms if I were to be honest. When I informed my mark to my cousin I was graciously congratulated. I thanked him and attributed it to God. The response I got was that "G...
