blockages!!

sometimes i find that writing can be so difficult...... even writing just ur thoughts........ why is it that the words seems to fumble and letters seem so difficult to type? A writer's block is what they have named it.... more a mind block, i think, isnt it?? after all its the mind that rules ur actions!.... whether u are writing, painting, reading and even cooking should i say? why not isnt cooking an art? yes it definitely is......

there may be thousands of reasons for ur block, but the real trick is how it get out of it!..... unwinding urself??? take a break, they say!!

but i wish somebody would tell me how to control my thoughts!! how can u go past ur blocks, how to break the ice!!.... and how to go about when u get stuck in-between and u get no ideas!!!

Happy Father's Day!!

Its common for all to talk of their mothers, but just as mothers are indispensable, so are fathers.....

Gandhi- no i am not talking of our 'father of the Nation', Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, but i am talking here about my father (Nana as i called him)..... he was very fondly given this pet name "Gandhi" by his grandmother, who wanted him to grow up to be as great as Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi in stature!!....... and very true too...... he may not have become a famous personality like MK Gandhi, but he did prove to be a 'Gandhi' for his family and all his relatives....... he earned an unmatched respect and love from all the people he came across in his life.... Yes, A Gandhi in his own world!

A true Lion ( his sun sign was Leo), he was the most generous and very authoritative...... A person who never feared responsibilities, but instead was always right in front to take up new responsibilities and handled everything to the perfect 10........ A great organizer and planner that he was, anything he did was sure to be a success..... the hard exterior that he portrayed, he was equally soft from inside......

My idol, role model, he was truly a gem of a person..... sometimes it becomes really hard to express in words the respect and love and admiration that i have for him..... its been 6 years since he left us, but it still feels like he is sitting in the other room reading his newspaper with a cigarette in his hand.......

I miss u Nana..... its not easy to write just a small para on u....... if i could, i would write a book on u and still it would be less.......
