26/11 - The Day We Can Never Forget
While most of my fellow countrymen and friends celebrated their Thanksgiving last year, toasting to their relatives and enjoying turkeys with all the trimmings, I remained glued to my TV, watching the events that were unfolding in South Bombay.

I received a wonderful message from a gentleman after the posting of my blog on Grace. In it he said, “I have a question for you, it is easy to feel Grace once or maybe twice, but what is the mantra to enjoy it continuously?” I’d like to answer this question here, drawing from my own [...]

27. August 2009
Value– what an incredibly valuable word it is as a verb, and a shallow representation of its true essence as a noun. I have started to consciously adore and really embrace this verb, this act. It presents me with a box of priceless goodies. A big box of gifts in the corner of a cozy [...]
