  • News Item That touched Me ....There was one article in this month's Reader's Digest about Kamalbhai Parmar who is running a fabricating unit and who runsa school,rather a tution school for the poor students in Ahmedabad.It takes a large heart to start something like this.I do wish I can do something like that too.Atleast be able to teach in such effort .
  • Books That I am reading now.....I am reading "Under Orders" by Dick Francis.Just started.Seems to be about issues in racing sport.
  • News Items That Touched Me Today----The bicyc;e scores over train and car in a survey conducted for two wheeler travel ina congested metro like New York as the fastest transport..
  • Movies That I Liked.....I watched a Malayalam Movie called'Vastu Hara' in Kairali T.V.yesterday.The story touches about losers who migrate abandoning their personal properties during divison of countries and realtes to the creation of East Pakistan called East Bengal dividing Bengalis .Also running underneath the main issue is the personal loss of property which gets rejected by the Mother in the story who is offered the same back by her Husband's relatives.

It Is Raining.


It was Dusserah time at Mysore.But it rained as usual to such an extend that, I need not water my potted plants.Dusserah makes Mysore beautiful.People are rushing through everywhere.It never used to be like that.People have stopped enjoying anything leisurely.Even leisure is a hurry through.

Raw peanuts are avilable during this time.So also chrysanthum flowers.Because Onam is just passed, even vegetables like 'kavathu' was available in the market.I bought today only Kerala vegetables.Yam, Kavathu, Small onions and sweet potatoes,including white ash gourd and red pumpkin.I saw on the road big straw berries too,but did not stop to buy.After all everything and every taste has a limitation.It can wait.

Happy Onam and Happy Dusserah to All.

Jayamala.
