:-) :-| :-/ :-O :-D

Thinking up a title is becoming a big task these days :-)

so decided to go with some of my favorite emoticons that i use in chat. emoticons are one of the cutest things in the net-era...

felt like writing, a few hrs ago, and got the machine working now, but now...what to write... b'day is around the corner... last year, the birthday was a special one. i had a different new dress that day, a unique, once-in-a-lifetime sort of dress. u can't even call it a dress. it was actually a shawl - a saffron shawl, a shawl soaked in grace... yes, it was my teacher's shawl and i wore it for the first time on my b'day last year aug 12, 2010 as that was my first session as a teacher. it felt like a new birth in many ways :-)

an year has slipped by like a second... when u r happy, time does fly doesn't it... different experiences in every class and at times the intensity and clarity with which the class happens (for myself), it leaves me stunned n flabbergasted at times when i realize how certain things beyond me happen through me, which makes what i am doing so worthwhile... to be constantly in touch with such a potent possibility and guiding force...

The (so called) intellectuals...
Dabble with your iPads and iPhones,
But you will miss the "I"

The (so called) practical people,
When will you get cloyed
Of your limited perception of life

My own dear ones,
When will you start thinking beyond security
An illusion in itself

One and all,
What you wish to do with your life,
That's your choice.
But I will continue
To care for you
And I will continue
To walk my path.s
