The Jack of All Trades

Hey guys, its been really long since I fought the biggest hindrance in a blogger's life-laziness-and wrote anything. But then the mere thought of y'all forgetting me was so overwhelming that I decided to say hello, at least! Now you must be wondering what I have been doing all this while...well, other than fighting laziness, of course.....(although, its not totally untrue to say I haven't wondered the same myself....really...what HAVE I been doing?).....although its always easy to escape to the most rehearsed answer, working, of course!
But today, I felt this inexplicable need to share my thoughts....not that I haven't felt the need to share my thoughts during my 'lazy break', but today I decided to make time and actually share my thoughts....( a positive sign, surely...)
Now, while I have been away from you guys...well, I have done quite a few things actually
...tried my hand at experiments involving cooking, baking (some stuff turned out really well, and was gone within a few hrs time...while some of it ended up making my dustbin smell like a bakery on fire!)....I also have been busy reading (though not always writing) and spent time travelling and meeting new people (well some old people too)......so may be now I can start writing about all these wonderful experiences.....don't worry, don't panic, am not going to give you step by step instructions on the recipes I succeeded at, nor am I going to convert my posts into travel posts, or book reviews....am only warming up today so that I can be back with a bang! (and hopefully get an idea for my new post soon).....
During my prolonged break from writing, I have seen a lot of my friends try their hands at different things some started food blogs, some started websites dedicated to arts, crafts n such, some haven't gone all the way yet, but have started making their own experiments and putting them up on our very own showcase...Facebook!.....but for me, every time the question came as to what specific subject should I (if I should) dedicate my posts to.....well I was always at a loss....In one of my favorite movies, the protagonist says, (and this is a translation)" How do men spend their entire life with one woman, I fail to understand....I don't think I can ever do that...how can I? Some have beautiful eyes... some have beautiful lips....." (Today being his birthday, I just had to quote him!!)
Well, I find myself in the same position....every time I decide to dedicate my posts to a particular subject, I find something else more interesting, and then I just have to talk about it!
So finally, after much deliberation, I have decided, that my posts are about me, not a particular part of me....so then they can be as varied (and as whimsical) as I can ever be!!
So welcome once again to my blog ladies and gentlemen!.......Fasten your seat belts......sit back and enjoy your ride...........!!!

आईचा ब्रेक

मिस्टर सानेंनी हळू डोळे उघडले. खिडकीतून उन्हं येत होती. खाडकन जागे झाले. दुपार झाली कि काय! घड्याळ बघितल, हुश्श, आठच वाजतायेत! पण पुढच्याच क्षणी लक्षात आलं, आठ वाजले तरी किचन मधून काही आवाज येत नाहीयेत. आज तर गुरुवार, वर्किंग डे, एव्हाना किचन मधून आवाजच नव्हे तर तर-तर्हेचे वासही यायला हवेत. डबा तयार झाला असला पाहिजे, चहा तयार झाला आला पाहिजे. पण आज कसलीच हालचाल दिसत नाही! शेजारी पहिल तर मिसेस सानेही शेजारी नाहीत. काय भानगड आहे बुआ आज?   चष्मा चढवून मिस्टर साने बेडरूम मधून बाहेर आले. मिसेस सानेंचा घरात कुठेच पत्ता नव्हता! गेली कुठे  ही? मिस्टर सानेंनी सुनबाईंना विचारायच ठरवलं. पण श्वेता त्यांना कुठे दिसेना. इतक्यात, "गुडमॉर्निंग  बाबा!" म्हणत श्वेता जांभई देत बाहेर आली आणि त्यांच्या उत्तराची वाट न पाहता, तडक  "गुडमॉर्निंग आई" म्हणत किचन मध्ये गेली. मिस्टर साने तिला काही सांगणार इतक्यात,  "अहो बाबा, आई कुठेयत?" म्हणत पुन्हा बाहेर आली. एव्हाना तिची झोप पूर्णपणे उडाली होती. "माहित नाही बुआ, मला वाटलं तुला काही बोलली असेल..."   त्यांन...

Love them or hate them....

"Behind every great kid is a mom who is pretty sure she is getting it all wrong", they say. True, parenting is a game of 'wait and watch.' There is no right or wrong here; or nothing that is a sure fire success mantra. Everyone has a different take on on how they wish to raise their young ones. And it is the choices that parents make that impact their children majorly. 

The Dream

“Hello,” said the voice on the phone. “My name is Roald Dahl. I know you never expected a call from me, as famous as I am, but I’ve been given your name as someone who can help me with my next book…” That was how it all started. With that one dream. Of course, I knew it even before I had opened my eyes, that it was a dream. I mean, who in their right mind would say I know you never expected a call from me, as famous as I am… ?! Not to mention the fact that Dahl has been dead for the past twenty-eight years. But that didn’t matter. Not at that time. Because that dream gave me clarity. That dream propelled me into action after ages of inactivity. Well, I say ages, but it was merely months, really. Months spent going in and out of courtrooms. Months spent climbing up and down that horrid staircase of the family court building. Horrible, awful months. Excruciating months, when I preferred oblivion, and possibly even contemplated death. Months when I didn’t want to exis...
