This is love near dear!!!!!!!!!???????

Red and Yellow--two roses you gave me!!!
Red to say you love me.....................and
Yellow --a vow to keep me happy ever...........

Three decades of togetherness....
Sharing my joys and sorrow...
Bearing all my flaws...
Still loving me above all......

Treating me like the young girl
That I was then....
Often dancing to my whims..
And sharing my fancies ever.....


Defying the norms of society
Gratifying my smallest wish
Ever lovingly caring for me...
always subtle in your ways....

You! my Valentine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I owe my life's joys to you....
Your love I know is eternal..
In that bliss let me live for ever................


THIS IN NO WAY IS A VERSIFICATION OF THOUGHTS, I KNOW......BUT AM JUST JOTTING DOWN MY FEELINGS TODAY---------------ON THE DAY OF LOVE.

SABSE AAGE HONGE HUM HINDUSTANI??????????????

Normally, we would tap our feet or sit immersed in the graceful movements of a dancer while we watch a dance item. But has it ever happened to any one that you wept uncontrollably while watching a dance performance?????????? well....that is what exactly happened to me a few minutes back, and here I am writing my deep appreciation for that dancer. While watching the programme dance India dance on Zee TV, I was thoroughly enjoying the intricate steps and graceful movements of the dancers and also commenting on their performance. Then all of a sudden a participant came crawling to the stage. What a grit! we both exclaimed.Well...we did admire that he dared to perform in spite of his handicap, BUT WE WERE NOT TRULY PREPARED FOR WHAT FOLLOWED!!!!.....He performed in such vivacity and grace, using his hands like feet and his feet like hands that I just could not bash my eyelids and stayed in that wonder struck state of mind though out. As one of the judges said if only we Indians had one percent of what Kamlesh has, SABSE AAGE HONGE HUM HINDUSTANI. I wept in joy at seeing him selected, Iwept for every Indian, wishing each of us would have the same will power and 'don't say die' attitude, I don't know exactly why i wept... but i could not control my tears. hats off to Kamlesh! Kamlesh u are simply great! I wish I had one percent of the positive feeling as u have. We tend to lose heart if a small hurdle comes our way. We curse our fate, if things don't go the way we want. As a teacher, i realise how important it is to emulate the will power and positive attitude of Kamlesh and pass it on to my students, and coax them further to the realms of glory by consistent positive will power.

wow! am I happy?????

Yesss I am!!!!!!!!!!!Ask me y??I can see the beaming face of our own Sania Mirza on TV, ACCEPTING THE AUSTRALIAN OPEN TROPHY FOR WINNING THE MIXED DOUBLES. I know it may not be such a great honour as may be bestowed on A R Rehman if he gets the Oscar, or it may not be an individual feat for her, but all the same she has figured in the list of achievers in the world of tennis at international level.She is indeed lucky to have had such an accomplished player as Bhupathi as her partner.
I am not much of a sports person, rather I hardly ever stay glued to TV when there is any match. Somehow tennis happens to be a game I like and try to keep myself updated about it. Of course GK and Deeps are die hard fans of the game. I know the world and the ardent fans of tennis are waiting for the men's singles when Nadal and Federer will be playing. i too am keenly waiting for that. But it gives me immense pleasure to know our own Sania has won a title albeit a shared one.Immensely proud of u Sania!Indeed another feather in the cap of the nation....To add to this feat, we have our own Yuki Bhambri to be proud of! Of course he is the fourth Indian to win the junior title....Even then IT IS AN ACHIEVEMENT FOR THE NATION.....W e are sure proud of u Yuki!!!!!!!!!!
