Let me begin by saying that this post is dedicated to my friend who pushed me into blogging. Now I go on to other facts. Is it always necessary to bother with nice-cities like thank you and sorry, with friends? As the ode goes, friends are there for you, in good times and in bad times. A shoulder to cry on. Among friends there are no thank yous and sorrys. There are so many. If I start writing it all down, I might be guilty of plagiarising every card on Archie’s gallery shelves. It’s not that I… Continue

Life...so it is....

'Is life just this what I am living or is it much more or maybe lesser?' Thoughts like this cloud my mind day in and out. At times, I look at life objectively, chalking out my role in it, my responsibilities, my stake and the risks. At other times, I subject it to being a mere state of existence. Or how else can I justify all those incidents and situations that I have been a mute, passive spectator to? They came, blew everything that seemed to be in their perfect places in my 'life' and left be… Continue

His Ways (Short Story) Do send me your comments/opinions

As soon as she entered her two-bedroom apartment in Thane, a suburb near Mumbai, Shivani went to her daughter’s room. After toiling the whole day in office and coming back to find her daughter’s room in a complete mess annoyed her. Mechanically, she began removing the washed and the unwashed clothes thrown around, the untouched milk glass and the forgotten apple on the table, and the various tit-bits. She asked herself the same question that she asked everyday, ‘When will Naina grow up?’ Amidst… Continue

Really ..... it does feel wonderful if u make a person smile. It really doesnot have to be a "charity" deed and if it IS a charity deed .. the better. I have n… Continue

The Book

I was walking around the Priya Complex in Delhi, with the family in tow. Decided to check on the bookstore( not crosswords) for the book. I asked the salesman for it. He promptly came out with a copy of Preeti's BOOK! Iwas thrilled to hold it in my hands. Looking at my expression,he asked," Have you written it?" "No", I replied hastily," Its author is my friend". And I felt so proud at that moment! The Bubblegums and The Candies are sweet and touching, Preeti. I just loved your style.But is ther… Continue

About the book

Preface It is only in fairytales that there are happy endings and the Hero always wins. Real life is rarely like that. It is mostly imperfect. There are times when some things happen that are so embarrassing that you wish you had the powers to escape like Houdini or you could change things with the flip of a switch like changing channels when you don’t like a TV programme. No such luck. You just have to grin and bear it. But the good thing is that no matter what it is, it always e… Continue
