Indira today

                                                                          Indira Today You know that moment when you realise that life has hit your child for the first time and  that first time is hard. Hard for them and hard for you too. You know that  that’s the first time they are experiencing something that they have never experienced before.  She is 8, actually will turn 8 in exactly 13 days. My baby, always smiling, always happy. A child so easy to raise that I miss her when she’s gone away all day. I miss her hug ever so often..... I want to hold on to her childhood as tightly as possible and for as long as possible.  She expresses her emotions only fleetingly. I am aware of this so am consciously trying to catch on to that expression or those two words that ...

Mona Lisa

You know that you are entering Louvre and you will see the Mona Lisa. You have seen its picture many times before. You are sure you will not be surprised. After all it's a portrait of a lady that is not even related to you. How do you care about it beyond a point.  Every arrow in the biggest museum in the world is pointing towards Mona Lisa so you decide to start from there. Before you reach it, you don't mind getting distracted by  the exhibits that you see on your way to the most famous painting in the world.  After all every piece in this prestigious museum is worth a detailed look.  You follow the arrows that lead you to the most crowded spot. You want to get closer to the painting so you wait patiently for your turn. Gradually you are getting closer to it and don't realise that your heart is beating a bit faster than before. Is it because of the crowd? Is it because you are standing on your toes all this while to get a clearer view? Not sure at this point........

Nana ka magic!

                                                                Nana ka magic! When mummy papa came from Delhi this time, during their visit my Nayantara fell very very sick. She was burning with fever. She is 14 but is the baby of our house. He saw her not just in physical pain but could also see through her emotional pain. Her body is weak but her mind is weaker he said. As if he could peal every layer of her mind and see till her core. She smiled lesser than before, she hardly shared anything he said. My response was that she is a teenager Papa. Give her a few more years and i am sure she'll be fine. After all i have conditioned myself to believe that. Helps keep my exasperation at bay. He saw that his favourite grand child ( because she is the first one I believe ) is suffering. He is intelligent enough to understand ...
