Dreams

Dreams.. we all dream , big , some small,  some tiny but all of us dream. We close our eyes & only see bits & pieces of happiness flying around us with tinkling of smiles..I too dreamt & still dreaming ...some came true some didnt & some still in the process of being true (Keeping my fingers crossed).

Reading without spending a penny

I am very calculative when it comes to money matter but when I see a book that can invoke slightest interest in  my inquisitive mind , the whole Dr. Hyde & Mr. Jekyll syndrome just takes over me & I turn into this crazy person who would spend the hard earned money, from my sweat & blood,  Ok,  so now I am exaggerating but its true I spend huge amount of money on books...I know,  I know its a good habit but not when your house is changing into a monstrous book warehouse.

So while I was talking to one of my "To Read" mentors , Srijan, he kind of sold me over the idea of reading e-books, & that very moment I could see a bright light of heaven where I could only hear about some of the kind soul websites where I could download loads & loads of books...Ok enough it was Mr. Google & few were suggested by Srijan. But as a brownie point I even came across This  its a God sent website for audio books, so if you liked listening to stories when you were kid, I think you ll like it now also.

So do check out this website , I have already listened to four sections of  "Daddy Long Legs" which I wanted to read from a very long time. Its a beautiful story till now & will update about the whole audio book experience & the story.

Happy Junction

I created this space to stop & ink down the good , bad & ugly of my journey , but of late I have realized that I come down here and only write when I am in low spirits , whereas in happy times I completely forget about writing it down. I missed so many things like writing about all my holidays, the late night movies, chit chat sessions ,the books that I read , the movies that I watched,  late night drives,  fabulous meals by  Mr. Husband & many other happy things...

But no more of absent mindedness on happy times.

Its not worth it

Sometimes some things, events, places or people are just not worth of one's time or emotions, but still we keep  thinking that one day it will all come to a good ending. But does Happily ever after exists in real life?

Asura: Tale of the Vanquished

Asura :Tale of the vanquished is one the best book decisions, I made this early year. After a long time I thoroughly enjoyed reading every page of it, this tale evoked the urge of reading books after a long time which was into a sleepy state after reading some very horrible pieces. Quote- "The reading of all good books is like a conversation with the most eminent people of the past centuries." stands absolutely true for this classic piece of tale.

Writing of Anand Neelkantan manages to take up the most important tale of Indian Mythology -Ramayana & has narrated the same story from the other side- from Ravana's  point of view. The best thing about the book that impressed me the most is that , the whole story was told in a way that it evoked the interest in a novice reader of mythology like me. The whole story is based on intelligent debate & explanation that will make you see Ravan's story with equal empathy & respect.

I am not going to post any spoilers in this post, but would recommend everyone to read this thought -provoking piece.
