" Waiting for the Winter Chill to go", 01st January,2013
A New Year with the winter chill as your companion..there is no looking back in life when there is so much ahead..
The State of Himachal Pradesh, fresh out of the Assembly Elections looks forward to a new Government which can with its vision for tomorrow, put the past behind and move forward.
In another State of Gujarat, the people once again in their Assambly Elections, chose their choice of governance by their precious vote..
We wish both the newly elected governments, success in their endeavor for creating 'sadhbhavana' in promoting an integrated India to the world, with development for all as its key focus.
Headlines India.." Chilly Notes "
" Dairy Notes..Sangeeta", 17th December,2012
12th December, 2012: At home in Dharamsala and almost one month away, from my visit to my hometown Lucknow. The chill of winter days has now found roots..Northern India, enjoying the winter bliss with the warmth of a fireplace. All things however harsh and difficult to bear, come with their own healing balm, which can often make their experience enjoyable!
Community is best celebrated in the togetherness which the chill brings with it !!

" Selective in His Choice..", 18th November,2012
'Bhai Tika'.. I told him last time while persuading him to come to Dharamsala " Missing in person and full of his presence!" It was the same this year as he took his last journey on 11th November, 2012 in Lucknow.
In the many things I can remember of my loving brother 'Gappu' was his ability to fool us all with his jokes..till the last day I believed he would come to Dharamsala. I can also say with great faith that there are few who could match his astute choice of being selective in whatever he did, whoever he chose to be friends with and how he lived his life !
On my son's second birthday in Delhi, celebrating at the Zoo with friends n family, he was the MC in distributing the best of Chicken kebabs to all..truely, there was much lesson in his zest for life for all of us..!

Headlines India.." The Gem of Contentment "
" Buddha Bliss!", 17th October,2012
Years ago, when the Buddha roamed the streets of India, he came across two men..a wealthy man busy as a bee, with worry lines on his forehead. He asked the Buddha for wealth and the Buddha blessed him.
The second man who was poor also came and asked Buddha for wealth. The Buddha blessed him. Years later, he met the two men again. The wealthy man asked Him again for wealth. The poor man was happy and thanked Him for his blessing of wealth.
It was a big mystery for all..as the man still looked poor. Buddha asked Him why he had thanked Him and not asked for more. He answered that he had been blessed with the Gem of Contentment in His blessings..!

“To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived—this is to have succeeded.”

The naked eye could not make out, whether it was a Kingfisher Airlines or Jet Airways.. Down below, was the hubbing of chirpy birds..dragon flies..and almost gutteral in its sound..the shrieks of the playful monkeys, each trying to get its share from the earth. One lonely monkey, ever ambitious was scaling new heights for his fruit of Eden ! Was he lonely as the Emperor in his bid to make the Taj Mahal, Agra or was he fulfilled for eternity by gazing at it, once he had made it ?! Success is best measured by what we had to give up to achieve it ..!!
