Separation and Travel
 Traveling to distant places is perhaps one of the most exciting things that could happen to me. I enjoy traveling and visiting places. It has always been my dream and I coveted a job that would include travel once in a while. But strange how motherhood changes everything. I have to travel to USA for work, and whenever I have this opportunity, I st... more...

Celebrate Love
 I am a romantic by heart and I like sweet romantic attitudes. Not mushy ones, which make you sit at your lover’s feet and act like a slave. I like being loved in the quiet assured way that tells you, you are important and you are needed.  I wonder how important Valentine’s Day is. It was not celebrated with so much hype a decade ago, when my husba... more...

Women
A few days back I was forced to watch a telefilm at a relative’s place. The theme was as usual a lady being exploited by her husband and mother-in-law. It was a bit different in the sense that all they wanted was a son from the girl. But repeated attempts resulted in the birth of two daughters. I was amazed at the patience of the girl in waiting an... more...

Adventures of Mr Bhaat
I generally opt for the office car pool. It is easier and peaceful. And another and the most important reason is the co travelers. What a Group and what discussions! A full one hour time pass and memories to relate to.One such person in the group is named as Mr. Bhaat. (Bhaat in Bengali is a word used for any discussion that is nonsensical but inte... more...

An Ordinary Couple
Piya and Piyush were happily married and settled. They were young, had a wonderful apartment, had a lovely baby, and had supportive parents. They were the role models for so many others.

I have been busy attending some strange occasions. They are strange because I never heard about them before.  There is a rich and aged couple in my neighbourhood.

On Growing Up
I was thinking for sometime that Titiksha is growing up. She no longer wants to scurry up to my lap; in fact she resists being taken in my lap. She will always say with an effort, I am grown up now. See I can walk and she will start flapping her legs like a humming bird. However she does have a special bond with her father. She will always extend h... more...
