I have a book at home, signed “For our first-born, love – Mummy & Papa, November 14, 19xx“. Ten days before I came into the world. This book is what I call the first gift from my parents.

Handful of yarn and a life lesson
September 26, 2016
Last week I was busy with some yarn and learning crochet. More about that experience later but while handling yarn, I learnt an important lesson. The yarn I had was all tangled with no beginning or end in sight. I had a partner who tried to fix up the mess by shaking it up. It seemed … More Handful of yarn and a life lesson
A matter of perspective
September 19, 2016
Many of us in Bangalore had a one-day weekend. Thanks to the recent unrest and statewide bandhs this month. However, for some, it was the usual weekly off. For many more, it was a normal day.
