A tribute!

It was a receipt, to which you accepted defeat
The moment wasn't sweet, neither now to tweet!

On a day that is thick, All I wait for is a check
Someone else would have felt what the heck, but I can't be that jerk!

It was the gate of the hanuman temple, who gave you your first dimple
I felt so terrible, but boy...you stood so simple

While we were still in the hype, I missed that fire extiguisher pipe
....and you told me that it was awful!next time, I rather be careful

For a starter, you were the best partner
from bitter to better, we grew thicker

Two additions to life, first was my wife
and you took them all safe, to make it my life!

We didn't go any long, but you were so strong,
From Tirur to Parassala, you became my real paathsaala

Days went on, and you pulled me on
Dawn to dusk, we went on and on!

...and the day came my friend!

You're only five, and it is still to jive
Life is still live, go take a deep dive

Hope to see you with a geek, who will make you go freak,
and you will hog the road, with fog lamps so bold!

A tribute to my WagonR, who was with me for the past 5 years - From Trivandrum to Thrissur to Tirur to St.Thomas Play school, from sanghumugham to kovalam, from museum to movie halls, from beatz to tech-a-break, from work to home and from home back to work!

It is even tougher for me to read maps! It gets even tougher for me, when people say that geographies are connected to the goodness in people! People in "Gods Own Country" make a very generic statement, the moment you know that a person is from South Kerala - OH!!! He must be crooked, he will be bad, he will cheat you! Speak to a person from South Kerala - he says "Wow! The person is from the North - then he must be good". He neither admits the argument, but just becomes diplomatic! Somewhere, somehow, someone has carved it on stone. As you travel from Kasargod to Trivandrum, people get worse!!! Your character is decided by the way you are! Your character is decided by the way you are brought up, your character is decided by the group of people around you, by the quality of education you get - eithe...

Learning a new language

“Languages known” – I’m sure all of us would have put this as a section in our profiles. What do we gain out of knowing a new language? You tend to have an edge over others when you go to a place where this new language is appreciated, right? What if I tell you a story of a new language that I learnt during my childhood? As a beginner, there was just an urge to learn this new language. What to most of us do in such a situation – IMITATE! I used to imitate people speaking this special language. Thanks to my grandfather who noticed my efforts and recommended my parents to send me for a “beginner’s course”. It was a master at our neighborhood who was my first trainer. While I started, I never imagined that I would love this language so much! The very first statement from my statement was confusing! “You are not supposed to use your tongue to speak this language,” He said. “You must use your hands, legs, body and your face!” As I was still trying to make sense of it, he told me that this ...
