The Beginning

It had been on my mind for quite sometime now, to start blogging but I guess out of hesitance and reluctance (amongst many reasons unknown) this thing had been left unattended to. Sitting comfortably in my room and grudging about the weather my thoughts ponder to 'life'.
Life, changes its course many times throughout the year. It would be at its best, offering joy and happiness; success and achievements; friends and laughter. We are so enthralled by it that we continue to take things for going in our favor every time. But occasionally life may not be the same as you had hoped for and most of the times you even don't have control over these things and then at times like these we feel dejected and give up on things easily. A slight glitch makes us to think that we are unfortunate!
Life can be blissful if we understand that its neither completely abstract nor fully absolute. It's rather a unique composition imbued with soft and shrill tones. It would be so much better if we gracefully accept disjointed facets as smoothly as we accept the fine one's to recreate puzzle called life.
PS- I learnt today writing 1 time is far greater than reading 100 times :D

Road-trip to Andalusia! (Part-1)

My brother and I decided to undertake a road trip, our first in the EU this summer. The entire idea for this trip was based around the question-  what can be seen in 2 weeks time WITHOUT having to use too much from personal vacation days.  In Germany, there are usually several public holidays during May and June, and by taking just a week off + some accumulated over hours, one can actually plan a trip of 12-14 days! After extensively checking the map for the possible road routes, flight fares, ease of accommodation, and avoiding overly touristy places, we zeroed in on Spain. Upon further research, we decided to cover the Andalusia region, which is the southernmost autonomous community in Peninsular Spain. I had heard about it from colleagues who had visited the region, and a little background check from our end, with constraints mentioned as above, gave us the impression that it was indeed the place to go. We decided to do a quadrilateral trip and combined major cities lik...

Aren't we all prisoners?

Aren't we all prisoners? Prisoners of time? How nothing seems to change From one day to another, And yet when you look back  after months or a year, It doesn't seem to be the same?   Oh, Wait. Don't get me wrong here. The very sights and scenes are familiar, But the people who shared those days and laughter, seemed to have...disappeared?   Aren't we all prisoners? Prisoners of our memories? Do you remember? the evening skies, and the twinkling stars, Of pockets of stillness spread afar. Or  The cool breeze and the sound of the stream, As you walked along the narrow street. Or Reminiscing the days, and finding solace, When you see a happy face. Or  The smile that unknowingly forms, Seeing pictures that your room wall adorns.   Aren't we all prisoners?  Prisoners of our own thoughts? How at times, We let ourselves be defined, By those who know us the least. Fighting battles that are not meant to be fought, Undoing and unlearning, that needs to be not. ...

The Games I used to Play !!

Last week, thanks to the amazing weather we have had, I finally decided to swing a swing after all these years. It was so comforting, to swing, the cool breeze accompanying me as I oscillated back and forth, the sounds of insects humming, the smell of wet earth and a thousand pictures that went past my eyes of childhood where swinging was a part of routine!! And I realized there were so many games we used to play with cousins and with friends at school, so here are some of the few games I loved playing-  1) Dark Room - A game so fun when played with a house full of cousins. Pretty much like hide and seek, except that it is played in the dark :D I have some really fond memories of hiding under beds, between a stack full of blankets, up in somebody's lap or standing right next to the door so as to 'dhappa' the seeker before he could guess me!! 2) Hide and seek aka chupan chupai - A game that one never gets bored of playing. It was always fun to hide because finding things is...
