  • Helping Let Go……Simple Funeral Etiquette

    Death is the biggest universal truth, and yet, there is never a right time to let go of a loved one. The trauma can take years to heal, and the void is almost never filled. Grief is personal, and very relative. It takes a whole lot of ‘one day at a time’ efforts to trudge…

  • Easy Evenings II – The Black Dog Chronicles

    Easy evenings with Black Dog Whisky. What could they possibly hold? How could they make an evening easier, if at all? Is it because you can drown in its golden hues and not recollect how hard the day has been. Or is it because it promises to be your solace when you are but by…

  • Let the World Wait – The Black Dog Chronicles

    Ah, the same ol’ story continues You wake, you run, you work Dreams are hidden somewhere To be fulfilled someday The time is almost never right There is too much to always do Perhaps, you are not ready either Then again, life is such And thus the years go by Black turns to grey eventually…

  • Twelve Years Ago – The Black Dog Chronicles

    I had just begun my third trimester. Things were looking good. Round, but good. So, I kind of took time to go from one place to the other. Think of a waddling duck, now just add the kilos and the mood swings to it. There you go. And so on some days I was all…

  • Musical Notes – The Black Dog Chronicles

    Daddy advocates a glass of whisky everyday. He says it is like a good lubricant that keeps the heart going. But he warns, the glass must always and I mean always be accompanied by music. Dad loves his music, as much as his drink. If you were ever to visit our home, at any time…

  • #100HappyDays – Day 1

      When Lucille shared the #100HappyDays link in our IndiBlogeshwaris Group, I was instantly drawn to it. The sunshine yellow website oozed warmth, and the idea of showcasing happy moments for the next 100 days was very serendipitous. But you know how it is. Speculation comes easy. Commitment, not. Then I saw Aishwarya share her HAPPY pictures, followed by Janaki. Before I knew it,…

  • Yesterday, Once More…

    The rains had finally given into the parched earth. Unabashed, purposefully, they fell from the heavens.  A sweet scent from the wet mud filled the air, as the raindrops arranged themselves in a sonata. The neighbourhood was slowly awakening from the muted slumber to a green song. This Sunday morning in early June, so far,…
