It Rains...



It rains.
Washing things down.
Putting dirt to rest.
Paving new grounds.


And a low far away grumble,
Of the perturbed world's last fight,
From the dark clouds oozes hope...
For a determination, immovable and non stop.


It rains.
It rains to ferment action,
From all and sundry,
Atoning the sins of cryptic quandry.


It rains.
Yes, it rains - calming and slow,
Not a loud trumpet,
But a powerful majestic bellow.
Alleviating anonymous thoughts of pain...
Finally, it rains.

    "It rains.

    this last para...is just lovely.

Were you sleeping?

How irritating is it to get a phone call when you are in that last hour of your sleep on a Saturday morning? Worse, if it turns out to be your mobile service provider wanting to confirm if you would want to upgrade your 3G plan (which in any case sucks with most providers in India!) Even worse, what if it turns out to be someone important, like your boss? Now you don't want to sound totally sleepy - do you? What would he/she be thinking of you if he were to ask, "Were you sleeping?" at 11 am in the morning? (And, this is judgmental attitude is especially true of older white haired balding bosses!) Well, here are a few tips to sound all alert & morning crispy when actually you would have killed him for ruining your sleep on a Saturday morning. They have worked well for me, hope they would for you too! - Take a deep breath, let the phone ring for a few seconds so that you get a chance to clear your head (hope you did not have much alcohol last night).

Saraswati to Laxmi!

 Image Courtesy: http://www.thehindu.com/ Now that MBA is over and I am considered an ounce wiser, being back home means work. There are so many pending things that are just waiting in the attic to be dusted and made to work again. One of them is the mammoth task of physical share transfer and dematerialization. Though stated in one pretty sentence, it takes months of effort and work. And of course, money!  My brother has been painfully going about the motions of this work for a couple of months now and nothing much yet seems to have resulted out of it. We struck a good deal with a certain Saraswati something shares. I asked, "How much would this one fetch us?". He replied, "Enough to recover the money you spent on your MBA degree". I exclaimed, "Really! Waoh! Even after they have been dormant for like 15 years??!". He quipped, in exasperation, "Weren't they supposed to teach you all this in B-School?" I did shut up and let him do this pain...

Another Wicket Down!

When someone is murdered , police usually investigate the spouse first . That is all you need to know about a marriage ! Another one bites dust today. The wheel of marriage started rolling with yours sincerely back in 2011. Three weddings and four years later, it was P's turn today. I happened to realise one thing. Not only one gets wiser by age or education but also by the number of weddings or social events in general that one attends. It is always good to know what happens next or what X type of aunties would do or how Y type on unmarried girls would turn up. All fun, none the less. That brings me to one more experience our lovely little group had when P was being chased by this guy with ugly teeth while she worked for a major dental and oral care brand! If one looks hard enough - one can derive irony from simplest of the things. Next fixed in line - AS & AS. Next looking for in line - AS (how many asses we have with us...
