Chimes of new beginning

     A wedding is something to cherish, may that be one's own or of the one known. When that "one known" is a friend who studies with you, the fun and the joy doubles.      One day out of the blues, a friend of mine told me she's gonna get married in a week. I did jump in joy but it took my brain quite a long time to register the truth and intensity of what she said. That one week went in a blur with her busy in preparing for her wedding. Well we all know the two words, wedding preparation contain a world of works. So my friends and I let her be and we planned things on our part. Hers being the first marriage in our entire class it was so special for us that we almost felt like it was our own. So we decided to make sure to attend and have fun.      As for the fun part, the venue was a far away place, so I stayed in a friend's house the previous night. Guess the time we woke up the next morning!  It was 1:30 am! By 4:00 a...

Chocolate or the Chocolatier?

     There are only a very few things that have the tendency to make people feel like kids again. The one that tops the list is chocolate. Dark, milk.. Does it matter?  Absolutely not.

That's what I am talking about. Chocolate shows love and affection, in so many ways that we can't count. Chocolate is nothing but a positive sign that symbolises something good happening. Well I for one, have got one lovely rule, which says an apology will be accepted only if it has got a big lovely chocolate with it. ...

Life Of Colours

  We associate a lot of things with colours, might that be the visual sense obtained from the flowers or the joyful successes in our lives. We do say our life is full of colours when we achieve our goals and when we are happy and satisfied with our lives. What we don't see if that flowers literally do live a life of colour. And fragrance, if you would like to add. But those of us who took the effort to see that know full well their beauty.      When was it that we last felt the joy of seeing a flower bloom? Most of us won't be able to remember doing something like that. But I did feel that joy this morning, when I watched a tree full of red hibiscus bloom. Well I didn't have my eyes stuck at the flowers to observe them open up. But it took them a mere forty minutes to unroll their petals, which was pretty fast. Faster than most flowers I have seen. I could see it happening every time I checked. It was silly and childish and yet I had the fun of watching it and ...
