A few days ago, India was shocked to hear the news of a mob of 200-odd people in UP beating to death a man who was rumored to be consuming beef. While there are many different serious issues involved in this situation, including why the beef ban makes no sense, and how the temple was used for entirely 'un-temple-like' matters, … Continue reading The Hysteria (and atrocity) of Mob Justice

My first snowy accident!
Yeah, so I have never before driven in snow. Yeah, so I should not be over-smart and offer to drive my husband to places... Yeah, so I should not try to swerve the car as soon as I see the turn for the destination. Yeah, so I should not brake hard when there is significant … Continue reading My first snowy accident!

Some questions about horoscopes….
One day, aise hi, a thought crossed my mind..Someone around was discussing horoscopes according to the Hindu calendar. According to the Hindu horoscope, a person's zodiac sign depends on the janmatithi (birthdate according to the Hindu Calendar), and the positions of the stars in the sky at the time of birth. Could someone please tell me, … Continue reading Some questions about horoscopes….
Thought for the day!
Do not devote too much of time thinking about how unfairly you are dealt with at work! There are many things to be done in life, and work, is just a means of getting the money to be able to do them! 🙂 😛
A sadly funny situation?
A friend narrated to me an incident he happened to witness. He was approaching a red-light on his bike, and the signal had just turned yellow. When it did, a small boy, with crutches in his hands(mind it, he carried the crutches, and not the other way round...), ran as fast as he could towards … Continue reading A sadly funny situation?

Dream #1
And there! The world was coming to an end! Well, if not the world, at least my city. My city was totally flooded! People were running (nah, swimming) helter-skelter to save their lives. The water levels were rising fast and furiously. And the water - it was not the usual colorless liquid, it was dirty, … Continue reading Dream #1
Dreams I didn’t even dream I would dream!! :-))
"Dreams are the stepping stones to success, so what should you do to be successful??", asked a senior at college... As we all looked at him, unsure whether to attempt this one or not, he exclaimed, "Go to Sleep!!!", and went on laughing like he thoroughly enjoyed his own piece of humour!! I grinned and … Continue reading Dreams I didn’t even dream I would dream!! :-))
Life After Death…..
Shekhar Kapoor in the weekly column "I am" in TOI: A man went to a sage and asked him, "Is there life after death?" The sage turned to the man and asked,"Is there life before death???" 🙂
Life and Death…..
Now this one is completely original ! If life is like a dream, does death mean waking up from sleep? 🙂
My driving!! (not other people mad…am talking about the real stuff here!!hehe)
I love driving!! Though not from the start, I must admit.... I first of all started driving a little later than allowed, at the age of 21, and it was quite a shaky start. My younger sister had already learned driving, and she was indeed a verry good driver. So adding to it my own … Continue reading My driving!!
