You are all you have….

The city which has embraced the culture of the world in itself. The city knows how to enjoy life, … Continue reading You are all you have….

Christchurch – The Brave Heart!

A Sudden Plan In the busy Melbourne life, suddenly I got two weeks break while changing jobs. Being a traveler at heart, immediately decided that am off to somewhere for a week!

The Human Touch!

Last few weeks I have been feeling fervently quite low due to several reasons.

When I have my … Continue reading The Human Touch!

My friend at the Cafe!

I have a friend at the coffee shop. I don’t know her name but she knows mine. She also knows what coffee I usually order. Every morning, one of the motivations I have, to come to office, is my coffee and a small chat with my friend. We talk about everything, about the weather, the … Continue reading My friend at the Cafe!

What’s your song?

A song that is reminiscent of time immemorial or of something exceptional. A song is your own because it relates to some specific personal event, it is … Continue reading What’s your song?

Companionship….

Humans have managed to define every relationship, be it mother, father, husband, partner or friend. Every relationship has their outlined protocols and precincts. We behave the way we are supposed to when we fall in one of those defined categories. But sometimes the heart subjugates the brain and the frontiers are traversed.
