Crystal clear has always made me wonder, how clear can a crystal get? Well, like I realized, it remains clear till there is an obstruction. Had the dice not been sporting 6 printed faces, the picture would’ve been much clearer. Much like our clouded state of mind, don’t you think?

Goodness on a Plate
Not all the food you get on the beach is unhealthy. On our last stroll along the backwaters, we saw several stalls of cut fruit plates. So if you are avoiding the beach so that you don’t snack unhealthy, then you can go back there again without fear!
Growing Wiser, Ageing with Grace
It has been a good six years since we first met and after celebrating six birthdays together, we have grown to be the best of friends. Here’s wishing my better half a very very happy birthday!
More Memories to Savour
As the seasons change, memories fleet past as flashes. On let another stroll on the beach, another stall full off goodies was waiting to greet us. The stall has boiled chestnuts (I prefer them raw), star fruits, ber, tamarind, raw mangoes and heaps of fresh Aniseed. How I miss my blissfully ignorant school days!
Is Hardwork Fun?
Donkeys seem to be a favorite anomaly around the world. Every country around the world seems to be favoring or hating the poor soul. Here are a few nuggets that turned up on searches. I’d love to hear what they mean, or any additions to the list from you! Don’t work too hard though 😛…

While I don’t know the reasons, maybe this link can help. Needless to say I find this practice of selling peacock feathers inhuman, but I know that the stunning bird sheds…

The goddess sitting on a lotus express that the deity roots herself in the Supreme Reality, and hence possesses the power of ultimate knowledge. I…
Melt Away the Pain
The St. Micheal’s Church opens its doors to commoners for Novena services every Wednesday. My Ma always tells me that both my brother and I were gifts she received from Mother Mary. Needless to say, I’m mommies’ little girl and a lot of my life’s convictions comes from the strength my mother brings out. So…
The Flight to Freedom!
Pigeons are a very vivid part of our landscape. There are times when we need to de-stress in the busy and crazy city, so you would find people feeding these winged rangers. Some of us just want to repent, or seek closure in life, others just don’t appreciate the fact that they need to fend…
