H is for HAPPINESS...: June 2009
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 15, 2009. I wrote this a while ago but couldn't think of a title until recently. It came to me when I realized that I was thinking of the bond between my brother and my Mom - unique, special and unbreakable. They were so dependent on each other, their lives so entwined that it seemed sometimes like they existed in a universe all their own, unreachable to the rest of us 'mere mortals'. And so I guess, this is my ode to their relationship of mutual compassion, nurturing and love. Stunned, he d...

H is for HAPPINESS...: Introspection...
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2009/03/introspection.html
Wednesday, March 25, 2009. The last few weeks have been a time for introspection. Here, I would like to say a big. To all my friends, who during this time, happily shared chit-chat and alcohol, and tell them that all those times they thought I was 'happy from alcohol', I was actually in my. Trying to make sense of it all! But now, back to the serious! Maybe I'm just trying so hard, I can't see the forest for the trees or maybe I'm just plain dumb! She stands majestic by the sea,. The birthing of nations,.

H is for HAPPINESS...: October 2008
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 2, 2008. I'm not a huge Gandhi fan, never have been. To me, he's always come across as a stubborn, egotistical, selfish man (his vow of celibacy being for me the ultimate example of selfishness), who was often weak when strength was required and had favourites among his followers, just like us lesser mortals! What of all the hundreds of thousands of freedom-fighters that fought and sacrificed their lives, before him and by his side, anonymous and otherwise? And that's what he has been r...

H is for HAPPINESS...: New Beginnings...
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2009/06/new-beginnings.html
Wednesday, June 10, 2009. It feels surreal, coming as this post does after the last one titled Introspection! All that rumination and pondering - has brought about, what else - Change! Life has and will continue to change this year. A change in location, a change in job and most importantly a change in family status! Phewdeep breath in order! Strangely enough, amidst the chaos, is a quiet peace, like I'm in the 'eye of the storm'. Where inner calmness and sanity prevail! Man, it doesn't rain - it pours!

H is for HAPPINESS...: August 2008
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 30, 2008. I wasn't thinking of anything or anyone particular, when this poem occurred to me, or maybe I was and just didn't know it! Now that I read it, I think I must have been thinking of my Mom and my Granny - both women I love and admire immensely but don't often let it show! Role models in every way. Women of independent spirit - wise, brave, opinionated, strong, kind, elegant and graced with dignity. Aai and Mamma, this one is for you. Today, I met a woman,. Her head bowed in grace,.

H is for HAPPINESS...: February 2009
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 14, 2009. I have never understood why the term. The words of a favourite Michael Bolton song (an old favourite of both his and mine) come to mind. Tell me how am I supposed to live without you,. Now that I've been lovin' you so long,. How am I supposed to live without you,. How am I supposed to carry on,. When all that I've been livin' for is gone". That's how I feel inside and out - how does one survive the loss of a soul mate? For him, cause now he's. He was born to be! He blessed me...

H is for HAPPINESS...: November 2008
http://hisforhappiness.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 19, 2008. Can't escape it, not anymore! Well, it will be in a week - exactly 7 days from now - I will enter the 4th decade of my life! When I think in terms of decades - the number still seems small :P. I mean 4 vs 40.come on - work with me here ;). Seriously speaking - don't think it will be any different than turning 24 say or 37, or any age, for that matter. I thought it would - honestly, I was prepared for some earth-shattering insights into the world, humanity, my self! Well I'm ...
