A Nostalgic Memoir --- "My Gran"...

-
This could be a bit different one of the posts I often do, but thought I should bring this up in my space. Its about an influential and an impeccable woman (I shouldn't miss the tag important) in our lives and that is none other than my maternal gran.
An artist, a sweet singer, a great cook, and of course a good mom - all these can be the synonyms of my gran, who is undoubtedly an industrious and an ideal lady I knew since a child. Having her attention was like having the sun shining brightly upon the green pastures. The warmth in her love and the affection in her speech could be felt even today. She was a resourceful love who, made us learn several things in such a way that they still ring in our ears. 
Ever after this sun set, I remember her as a confident and a graceful lady, totally independent and of course a caring woman.

Significance of Bommala Koluvu

                   F estivals are auspicious occasions to celebrate our well being. They spread in tranquility and are the right times to rejoice from our daily tumults.  The sacred Navrathri (Nine Nights), which are celebrated to symbolize the victory of good over the evil came to an end and so do the fun filled doll arrangements, the "BOMMALA KOLUVU",  which is carried over to us from our ancestors. What exactly is this Golu/ Bommala koluvu???                  To all those who are unfamiliar, it is a tradition where a collection of clay and wood idols of gods and goddess are displayed, which is carried over from one generation to other along with a new add-on every year.  Since my childhood, this festival conjures to me a special feast of celebration as it truly kindles the artistic flair buried deep inside us. The whole year we find our tradition coupled with our exc...

Chastity & Charity Begins at a [Colorful] HOME....

It's Life when it is Living at Home...   " A day starts at dawn and ends at dusk. And to someone like me both dawn and dusk are at HOME".  This is because, a HOME to me is the place where I can find enough solace, and so both my body and mind find their equilibrium. It is because of the unconditional love and the freedom that is filled in its air. At the end of a long, tiring day all I look up for is to rush home, sit back on my couch with legs stretched and have a steaming cup of coffee with my family. It is not just a block with rectangular walls and a roof but it is the only place on this earth which is a part of my mirth and melancholy. Filled with memories my 'HOME' is a place where all my imperfections seem perfect... It is the only habitat that bears all my interests and and of course my lazy habits and still smiles back at me...        My lovely warm little bed, which holds me till the sunrise...  A balcony proj...

"Mother You are Fantabulous" --- Mothering in my Mother's View....

-
I always wanted to start a blog of my own but was pretty unclear with what to write in it. But my passion towards writing made me frame this first blog post. I always wanted to make it special and so I am penning down about the most amazing person in my and of course in any individual's life, and that is none other than  MOTHER. Right from the moment we look into her eyes we start loving her and living her life. And so she does the same, practically even more, by showering her unconditional love and succeeds in transforming us into lovable and respectable citizens our society needs. She finds out all the means to comfort us, holds an open and a loving relationship with us and enjoys Motherhood , which she believes is her life's greatest gift. She regrows with us, remains our best buddy, cheers us when we are low, corrects us when we are wrong, and shares our pain and showers on us, pleasure through her unconditional love.      There are s...
