Recently I have been wondering how people lived in the past without internet. But sometimes, I am forced to think that things would have been much easier back then. Why do we have to go through all of these complicated things now? My website and blog faced a minor crash last night, I mean, my [...]
A traveller was visiting the country side and at one place, he saw an elephant tied to a tree. He couldn’t help but notice that the cord used to tie the elephant was rather too small to hold the big, majestic animal. But the animal was peacefully standing there and eating. He got curious and [...]
What are those strange little white buds? Are they fences to protect the little treasures inside? Or are they little buddies which line up around my finger and make me shout “ouch!!!” in a manner he thinks is funny? No, they are his little teeth! **** He is a bit late. He started teething around [...]
It was when the baby had just learned to crawl, one afternoon, I was sitting on the floor and playing with him. When he tried to move towards the bathroom, I said “Pappu, don’t go there. You will fall”. And I repeated many times in case he missed my point. “No. No. Not there. You [...]

At a first glance through the pages, I realized that this was going to be either “Wow it changed my life” book or a “What the…?” book. I’m just fortunate that it turned out to be the first type. “As you learn The Secret, you will [...]
The day started like any other. Waking up and cooking and having breakfast and then sending off hubby to office. It was all very normal. And then I sat down to chat with my mother, like I do everyday. She was curious. “You came late today. What are you doing?” After confirming that I was [...]
