I think Mother Earth likes to flaunt her beauty once in a while...to tell us that she's very much alive. You had to be there to experience her majestic beauty...

A dog’s life…

--> Original posting date: July 10, 2009 I have been debating whether to write about my dog in a blog. I know I will go overboard when I write about her, its difficult not to. Every dog owner feels that their dog is the most intelligent, most beautiful creature that was ever born. So do I! I know I have to write about her, because I want to do this for myself. I cannot stop talking about her once I get started…some people have already had a first hand experience with this…I usually recount every little trick that she has ever performed and I don’t stop until I go through her eating habits, bathing habits, human habits, her doctor visits, her blood line, her friends… I guess you get the point. But I feel there’s no better way than to write this down so that not only my friends but I get a chuckle out of it every time I read it. I recently got a big scare about her health and I cannot describe how heartbreaking and helpless it feels when someone you love so dearly is i...

Journey to the past…

Original posting date: July 15, 2009 Going home is a highpoint for me. The moment the airplane lands at Mumbai airport, the stench in the air declares… “Welcome home!” I must say, it’s the sweetest smell for me, especially when I visit home like once in two years. The moment I leave the quiet enclosure of the aircraft, it seems like I am being sucked into a parallel universe…the sound, the smell, the hubbub of life and people is just overwhelming. My brain just explodes, trying to keep up with and comprehend the shock of stepping into a world of intense activity. Living in the US robs you of all the stimuli that life in India comes with. I cannot even begin to narrate what a regular day in India may come with. The ‘morning raagas’ consist of shrieks and shouts of children going to school; the vegetable vendors shouting on the top of their voices, trying to get a good start to a business day; the milkman delivering the milk so fast that you wonder how many houses he serves ...

Six Degrees of Separation

-
Original posting date: June 30, 2009 A freaky thing has been happening to me lately…as my husband says, “it seems like every new person you meet is connected to you”. I end up invariably finding someone in common with random people these days. This has been happening since I moved here to the States five years ago. Back home, I never really cared who was related to whom or who we knew in common. My parents on the other hand found it as a great conversation piece when someone new came over…try to find out relatives and friends in common…and I couldn’t even keep a track of who’s husband’s aunt’s sister-in-law’s daughter they were talking about!! There’s a theory to explain this phenomenon and it’s called ‘six degrees of separation’. The theory is that everybody in the world is connected to every other person through five other people (at the max.) in common, i.e. six links…Hence the six degrees of separation! Here’s the Wikipedia page if you want to learn more http://en.wiki...
