by Axee
Speaking from several experiences as a fighter pilot, I feel even on the ground, in normal life, when you get into a situation that demands calmness and you panic!
Tell yourself... "Do Not Panic."
When in distress this is the very first thoug... |

In silent communion
by Guest Tickler
Her mellifluous voice served me better
Than all alarm clocks put together
As I woke up, each morning,
To the melodious tune of the cuckoo bird |

Classic Bollywood: GHAR - Four Fab Songs
by Abhijit bhaduri
Ghar is what the Gulzar-RD Burman-Kishore magic is all about. I have always wondered whether this is a film one should watch because it shows the transition of Rekha as an actress or just listen to the music. I think I'll vote for the music. |

4 Problem solving tools
by Axee
God helps those who help themselves.
But How?
To reach God: you need to communicate with him.
To communicate, you need to pray as you don’t get to him by any other way.
A prayer bereft of feelings of Love is like...a lake without water.

My fairy tale
by Ghazala Sarfraz
When birds sang and the moon shone,
And flowers grew upon the thorn;
The moment when stars smiled
Then surely I was born!
When people are smiling and sun is shining,
And silver streams can dive;
The moments when roses are dancing

The cobbler couple.

As I got ready to get to work, just the other day I noticed that my shoes needed a good shine.

The Front Page Dilemma
by Pramod Joshi
You are shell shocked, are you?
Your sensibilities are raped, you say?
Your sense of peace is ripped apart, is it?
“Every time I pick up the newspaper in the morning,
I am assaulted by the stories and pictures on the Front Page.
There, 29 ... |

Scarecrow!
by Pramod Joshi
It moved
I imagined
It was real
Life-like, ready to attack
I believed
It breathed.
It stood
Arms aloft
Appearing bigger
The breeze billowing
Its ramrod leggings
I shuddered
It sniggered.
It waved
As if to shoo
Me away
The gree... |

The Instant Gratification Mentality

Do we teach the right things? I recall an old Tamil film called Kaliyuga Krishnan. The story was rather simple but very interesting. There is this impoverished man who keeps bemoaning his fate and cursing Krishna. One day Krishna appears before him a... |

The Call Of The Day

The phone rang just after I had finished the lunch hour at work. The familiar residence number flashed on my cellphone. I took the call while I walked from my desk to a corner in the office for that much anticipated 5 minute conversation with my ten year old son. |

Mother-Daughter Matrix
by Chitra Jha
You know that the bond between a mother and a daughter is indeed very unique, and nothing can ever break it. But once your daughter grows up and becomes her own person, this bond is often tested to its limits. Yes, it remains the most complex of all relationships. Despite mothers and daughters sharing a special bond, there are some complex emotions that play a role in this sacred bond. |

Parenthood changed my life!
by Guest Tickler
Becoming a “real” dad was a combination of slow and natural process of “awakening” and conscious self-reminding, self-training, or self-conditioning that I am already a father and I have to change my ways. Not all of them are pleasant, or voluntary, I’m telling you.
