September 2006

The month of sept was a busy one, some especial events had taken place at home,

Thara had come home, and her marriage was fixed, by Gods grace, and as per his plan, without much pomp and show, with only a handful of people, an unplanned one. Sangeetha, Sajeevs sister, put bangle on her hand, and they had brought a plate full of cocunuts, flowers, fruits etc...And after it, could find three kinds of people:

Some happy, and came even uninvited on the day, or during days after that uninvited.
Some sad, for not calling, and having expressed their genuine feelings.
Some who pretended to be quite, with/without feelings within them.

It happened, it was destined, it was his will…..There is someone, somewhere for all, and somethings are planned, which happens.

The philosophy of one century becomes common sense of the next.

Then there was the Onam, festival of Gods own country……..

Everybody has some thing especial about this festival in their minds. For me the message that this festival conveys is:
Keep your promise: When there was nothing else to give, to keep the promise Maveli, gave himself to Vaman.
Never be afraid: Maveli was not afraid of the Saints curse that all his wealth would be gone.
There is so much of good in the worst of us and so much of bad in the best of us……That is why, when rest of the world, and we ourself worship, Vaman, as reincarnation of Vishnu, we also do remember Maveli every year.
It is these outstanding quality of Maveli, that is remembered by me on this day.

Then had shopping, visited many friends and relatives. Doctor. Amidst all this, due to lack of time, had to skip many important things, right from the day one, being going to pick her up to the airport, day two my classes, and visits to so many places…….

Thara went back by 23rd, then I fell sick, it has been nearly two weeks. And began Navrathri.
