Long Weekend....Too short....


Hey, this weekend...too has come to an end...too soon....Feeling sick, had left office early on Thursday, even on Friday was unwell, but somehow managed to be physically in office....and today Monday, we had taken optional leave, as it was holiday in US...Memorial Day is a United States federal holiday observed on the last Monday of May (on May 25 in 2009). Formerly known as Decoration Day, it commemorates U.S. men and women who died while in the military service. First enacted to honor Union soldiers of the American Civil War (it is celebrated near the day of reunification after the civil war), it was expanded after World War I to include American casualties of any war or military action.

And here I had our office colleagues R's marriage,S's house sisters function, and today, my earlier office colleagues marriage...there were so many delecious food, though I could not have everything....True Few relations in earth never dies....

Then there was the IPL match finals, and all the pending books to read...Dont know why, might am behind children these days, the book I took from Library, was 'The Crescent Moon' by Rabindranath Tagore. It is a collection of Poems, written by Tagore, primarily to entertain the children. The child is an idea, the symbol of new life. The beauty and simplicity of these poems translated form the Bengali collection of peoems Sishu, are very moving. ....



I belive the budding children, of today,the citizens of tomorrow, would be more loving, carying, and understanding....and less brainwashed, and henpecked.....but more matured, and responsible....
