Memories

Of course, one of the permanent things in life...
Seasons change, time changes, people change, circumstances change, but memories won't fade away... They can be the ones which'll make us happy, and also the ones which'll make us sad at the same time...
Whenever you are with your circle, the time spent will be a long lasting memory and everytime you recollect them, they'll bring smile on your face...
When you associate yourself with someone or something too much and the bonding goes to such an extent where it no longer exists, the memories hurt you so much. The thing is you can't do anything, but accept the situation and move on...
These days, people just take pictures of every account of their lives, have them saved, and that's how they create memories... Someday when they'll be looking at those pictures, they'll feel nostalgic about all the moments captured.
The most precious memories in everyone's life will be those of their childhood... The times we won, the times we lost, the times we fell, the times we got up, the times we learned, the times we got punished, the times we celebrated, the times we had fun with friends..., each and everything was so sweet and fabulous...

We don't know how long we live on this earth... Henceforth, the the only thing to do is to be on good terms with everyone around us and create as many good memories as possible...
Because, ज़िंदगी ना मिलेगी दुबारा...!!

We were never meant to be - Palle Vasu

We were never meant to be - Palle Vasu Yet another round of excellent storytelling, but reading this was somewhat unusual. The entire set of events were excellently planned, each character had cast some essence in the background, since only three character were in the foreground; Vikram, Anika and later Mathura.  The story begins with Vikram's silly teenage infatuation towards Anika, her being unaware of it. With him assuming something, reality being some other thing, his life became a complete mess. He continues the same foolishness even after being an adult, well let me think if it's foolishness in the first place! After a long debate, I concluded it is dumbness indeed :) While the story goes on, I couldn't make out what was in Anika's mind, was she doing things deliberately without thinking about its consequences or was it really out of no concern. Nor could I make out what Vikram actually wanted from her, just her saying that she loved him or actually ta...

ಮನುಷ್ಯನೆಂದಮೇಲೆ ವಿವೇಕ, ವಿಚಾರ, ವಿವೇಚನೆ ಅನುಭವ ಎಲ್ಲದರಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ವೈವಿಧ್ಯತೆಯನ್ನು ಕಾಣಬಹುದು. ಓರ್ವನಿಗೆ ಸರಿ ಎನಿಸಿದ ವಿಷಯ ಉಳಿದೆಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ಒಪ್ಪಿಗೆ ಆಗಬೇಕೆಂತೇನಿಲ್ಲ. ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಬ್ಬ ಮನುಷ್ಯನಿಗೂ ತನ್ನದೇ ಆದ ಒಂದು ದೃಷ್ಟಿಕೋನವಿರುತ್ತದೆ, ಅದರ ಅನುಸಾರ, ಆತ ಜಗತ್ತನ್ನು ನೋಡುವ ಪರಿ ಉಳಿದೆಲ್ಲರಿಗಿಂತ ಭಿನ್ನವಾಗಬಹುದು.  ಅಜ್ಜಿ ಮನೆಗೆಂದು ಹಳ್ಳಿಗೆ ಬಂದಾಗ, ಹೆಚ್ಚು ಕಮ್ಮಿ ಅಮ್ಮನ ವಯಸ್ಕಳಾದ ಗೌರಿಯನ್ನು ಕಂಡೆ. ಅಮ್ಮನೊಂದಿಗೆ ಶಾಲೆ ಕಲಿತವಳು ಆಕೆ, ನೆರೆಮನೆಯವಳೇ. ಸುಮಾರು ೪೬-೪೮ ವಯಸ್ಸು. ಗದ್ದೆ, ಕೊಟ್ಟಿಗೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ದುಡಿದವಳು. ಗಟ್ಟಿಗಿತ್ತಿ. ಚಿಕ್ಕಂದಿನಿಂದಲೂ ಪರಿಚಯವಿದ್ದರಿಂದ, ಸಲುಗೆಯಿತ್ತು. ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಕಂಡವಳೇ ಓಡಿ ಬಂದು ತನ್ನ ಮನೆಯತ್ತ ಕರೆದೊಯ್ದಳು. ಕೆಲಕಾಲ ಆಕೆಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಾತನಾಡುತ್ತಾ, ಹಾಗೆಯೆ ಕೇಳಿದೆ, "ನಿನ್ನ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಈಗಿನ ಕಾಲದ ಹೆಣ್ಣು ಮಕ್ಕಳು ಹೇಗಿರಬೇಕು, ಯಾವ ನಿಲುವನ್ನು ಹೊಂದಿರಬೇಕು?" ಆಕೆಗೆ ಆ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಯನ್ನು ಅರ್ಥೈಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಸಮಯ ಬೇಕಾಯಿತು. ಬಳಿಕ ಉತ್ತರ ಕೊಡುವ ಬಗೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಆಕೆ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಶುರು ಮಾಡಿಕೊಂಡಳು. "ಹೆಣ್ಣು ಅಂದ್ಮೇಲೆ ಒಳ್ಳೆ ಗುಣವಂತೂ ಇರ್ಲೇಬೇಕು. ಮನೆಗೆಲಸದಲ್ಲೆಲ್ಲಾ ಚುರುಕಾಗಿ ವ್ಯವಹರಿಸಬೇಕು. ಚಿಕ್ಕಂದಿನಿಂದ ಒಂದು ಚೌಕಟ್ಟಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಬೆಳೆಯಬೇಕು . ನೀನ್ ಕೇಳಬಹುದು, ಆ ಚೌಕಟ್ಟು ಹೇಗಿರಬೇಕೆಂದು?  "ನೋಡು, ಮನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಣ್ಣೊಂದು ಹುಟ್ಟಿತೆಂದರೆ...

The Palace of Illusions - Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

The Palace of Illusions - Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni  Just as I was yearning for it, I could read the great epic 'The Mahabharata' through the lens of a royal woman, Panchaali . When it comes to lengthy chronicles such as this one, various writers come forward with their own touch to the storyline, each one I've come across being the best one. Here, the author has put forth the tale through the words of Draupadi, the woman who married the five Pandava brothers and is regarded as one of the Panchakanyas (along with Kunti, Tara, Ahalya and Mandodari). The narration begins from the yajna scenes, from which both Dhrishtadhyumna (addressed by her as Dhri) and Draupadi came into the earth. Later, the atmosphere of Kampilya (the capital of Panchaal), which she found suffocating initially, was described as though it lacked the usual charm any wealthy Kingdom possessed. In a nutshell, Draupadi found her childhood a boring one, except for the company of her only brother...
