Republic Day!!

Most of the corporate houses go live on 26th of January -the republic day !!

My dad being in Central Govt, we three siblings have had a great time making sure to attend every event, school as well as dad's office. I do remember the days when early morning on one of these days (26th Jan/ 15 Aug) having no choice we painted our white school shoes with chalks. Always made sure not to miss the patriotic movies telecast on national television channel. The time when we had a black n white 14inches Videocon TV.
When I look back now, I feel sad to be where I am now...cant be a part of "national flag-hoisting" which I've seldom ever missed in life... I'll miss the greatest sense of joy and pride of singing "Jan gan man" with head held high standing under the open sky. Listening the music of Shahanai and to the song "Aye Vatan Aye vatan humko teri kasam". Its all truly so amazing...!!!

JAI HIND !!! Truly... Vande Mataram..

A Bunch of Frogs:


A come back indeed... after real long time. Being busy with church anniversary, performance, music, business and indeed my job; seldom find time for blogging. Now Christmas coming up, though I don't celebrate it on a specific day, you know there are obligations.
Well.. today something has shaken me, something has disturbed me and made me re-think about my future, made me ask myself if I'm standing on right platform. There are many who read my articles and browse through my blogs and hence will be very careful to be using my words. Because I'm NOT Julian Assange !!
I'm a bit emotional today about something that I cant explain . Someone rightly said, "In a basket, a rotten mango among the bunch of good mangoes would spoil the entire basket"... Well, but the case which has shaken me today is exactly the other way round. Let me try and explain the scenario... There is a basket full of rotten mangoes...

"......an old well and inside it are a few dirty characterless frogs, nvr seen the outr world n who nvr prefer 2 c eithr...wantin 2 promote der own old stinking way of livin, afraid of changes, afraid of aliens attacks n dominion by sum1 els. 2gedr dey achiev da greatst feat by brutualy kiling 1 among dem wid high level of brightnes n smartnes. Result??? Massacre of innovation, ideas, opinion, thots n most of al.... clos of doors of acceptance, understandin n learnin.
