Trust

Without trust, life is miserable..
What is life if you don't trust anyone to have your back? 
If you don't trust anyone to recharge you, when you are emotionally drained? 
If you don't have anyone to trust beyond logic?
To trust and be trusted are two sides of a coin...
Both are essential features for a peaceful life. 
Not on ethical or moral contexts..
But on emotional or practical grounds..
Trust is the backbone of relationships..
Trust someone until he/ she proves otherwise..
But always stay trustworthy...

A Pleasant Winter

A pleasant winter Cool nights and starry skies, Fragrance of mango flowers, The buzz of vrischikakkattu... I cherish those days at home... December is my favorite month... It's winter in Bahrain. The Sun who used to be furiously bright and hot , stays languid and spiritless The wind and occasional rain accelerate the descent of already dropping mercury levels. The Bahrain national flags flutter   on the buildings and along the road.. It's the week of the national day It's celebrations all over.. Decorating a Christmas tree, Building a sand castle on the beach Patting a rabbit and a cat I glide along the days holding tiny hands of my little girl!!  Preetha Raj

As smooth as can be!!

Life as a bystander was made a lot easy by the luxury of devoted nursing, food delivery, cleaning and helping staff.   I must say nature plays a role in the business of healing in this particular hospital. Periyar on one side , backwaters on the other. Beautiful landscape and aesthetically kept interiors.  From the fifth floor room, I could see the various moods of the sky, sunny, sullen and sad, drizzle and downpour..Is the sky reflecting the moods of the people down under? The cross of a church stood high amidst trees and buildings..I knew the crowded busy road beyond the walls, leading to the cross..I used to go to work by that road. It was tough to drive through the road full of haphazard bicycles, str...

Mother Mary Comes To Me

Mother Mary Comes To Me Arundhati Roy  Penguin  'Mother Mary Comes To Me' is a memorial grove Arundhati Roy built for her mother, Mary Roy. The epitaph on it says, " In these pages, my mother, my gangster shall live. She was my shelter and my storm." Mrs. Mary Roy was a warrior for the cause of women. She successfully challenged the Travancore Christian Succession Act which left daughters no right on their father's  property. She was a go-getter who built a reputed school out of a barren hill ( a 'mottakkunnu'). She was a bold woman who  never forgave ill-treatment, be it her own mother on the other side. But shouting at her children in front of others, making them  leave the car or the house according to her mood, punishing them for the slightest perceived incompetence, Mrs Roy was a difficult mother, if not an abusive one. During her frequent bouts of asthma attacks, she used to tell her little girl that if she was dead, she would end up in t...
