This used to be the favourite hideout of my younger days, much much fitter and agile days I must say. Field, outfield, pads, coach, technique, drive, gloves, tension, sweat, lots of sweat, passion, craziness. More importantly, it was my age of adrenaline. After years, took a look at myself through the strokes of the youngContinue reading “old house”

A blissful encounter
No, this isn’t Picasso or Monalisa. It’s a creation from hands of unconditional love and a gift to rekindle emotions. Blessed day!
moving past, and fast
Yes, truly forgotten. Rather, beloved and forgotten. An army distinguishes itself from an individual who is a hero. If it’s vice versa, then we witnessed a created history that was never seen. This is one such moment of pride and anguish. #historyoflight
Are you star driven?
Let’s have a crazy discussion. How many of us feel human race evolved out of the stars, galaxy or other astronomical endeavours? Are we really the bi products of the ‘Adam & Eve’ syndrome? How much of it is science then? If Science is our alma mater, then DNAs are not far behind. So, thenContinue reading “Are you star driven?”
the drive through shot
Indeed, doesn’t appear though. I think it’s more to do with the aura than anything else. Long standing giant amidst an ageing and growing metropolis. #calcuttadiaries
Altitude
Heights, perceivable yet deprived. Tells us where we are, doesn’t say where we came from. We like to be at the top, but fear to look beneath. Love flying higher but eroded by turbulent waters. Yes, I adore being out there but somehow get this feeling that blossoming flowers often forget the roots. the altitude.Continue reading “Altitude”
Vicinity
Watching us over, as a mother whose watchful eyes tell us stories of sin, redemption and sanity. I am around, so are you.
juggernaut
My beast isn’t my kind though.
traffic
There’s always this buzz about New York, London, Mumbai. Quietly, Calcutta figures amongst the noisiest and one of the most populous ones. Not revered but neither forgotten. Intrigued but not astonished, I have not seen vehicular traffic in Calcutta getting diminished by the travesties our trans-infra change. With some overwhelming overdrives that have graced theContinue reading “traffic”
2015 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 960 times in 2015. If it were a cable car, it would take about 16 trips to carry that many people. Click here to see theContinue reading “2015 in review”
25, Park Street
The walk from Ballygunge Circular road to Park Street would be a shade under 20 minutes, 15 if you are in a breezy mood and walk like fire. LaMartiniere, The Kookie Jar, Hallmark, AGC were my witnesses while I gallantly strode towards my educative influences. Well, that was around 18 years back. But, the charmContinue reading “25, Park Street”
the 2015 that was..
Technically, we are still there. So hold on, but then, for how long? Its been a while since we keep talking about what went wrong, what didn’t go well, how people deceived you, how nature’s wrath upon you was so unwarranted, why your employer doesn’t pay you well, why the world has turned so cruel..Continue reading “the 2015 that was..”
