With a smile..



When it rains..............!














the nature turns even beautiful...

                                                                            
so fresh...and calm...and serene.....

Those green fields..even greener, sky - so clear..and the fresh chill wind......

Kerala..the god's own country..!

'And a drop of sunlight'


                                                                    a snap from my last visit to the nearby beach

" The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here..
And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head . ."

- quote,from the movie, 'Into the wild'

Through the rabbit hole..


Before loong 12 YEARS...
It was a real crowded evening at the nearby bazaar. As we were on leave from the city the next day and before a tear-filled goodbye,uncle wanted to buy something for me.. He walked into a toyshop,wading through the crowd,taking me in his hands. I remember,.. it was a shop, where  blonde dolls with green eyes and cute puppies with white fur were arranged in different rows,enough to attract the customers. I was pointing almost randomly at dolls,puppies,teddies aaaaand naturally, uncle was 'confused' too!! suddenly, I was captivated by the bright red coloured cute piano with white-black keys..! Ignoring all other fascinating stuffs,I almost grabbed the red piano in hands.
It was actually a really small toy,which could only produce the 'do-re-mi' music.
But it was more than enough to disturb people,who were within a metric area when I played it :-D !! 


Just before 2 YEARS..
After the LONG 4-year-old cold war, dad bought me a brand new PIANO...finally!! 
Bliss-fully,I joined the nearby music class.
Happy-Happy alice played the piano and enjoyed her days :-)


But,before 2 weeks..
One day,
I was kinda bored.. TOO much...huhh!!!  becoz,
1. No one to fight with
   - sis went to school,know.. :-|
2. TV behaves like an idiot,at times..hm,true
3. Mom - busy at kitchen!
   -no no..! I don't disturb mom and receive the 'cutting vegetable' punishments!
+
4. No interesting books to read!
Then! i found...my piano in a corner of my room.. Rubbed off the dust and made it ready to work! I then selected 'THE KNIGHT AND THE LADY' piece of note to play (being my personal favorite)
1,2,3..go!
hmmm....................life is too boring,sometimes.........TOO boring!!




Are 4 months such a loong time,enough to forget 'THE KNIGHT AND THE LADY' ???
i wonder!
