When it rains


It is pouring back home…

What is it that I love about rains?
The smell of the soil after the first rain.

What I hate about rains?I am scared of the thunder and the lightning. (But that adds to its beauty, right?)

Worst ever rain?
Amma was alone at home with my kid brother.
All through the night it rained badly with lighting that struck the tree in front of our house.
All she could do was to pray and she was taken care of.
Thank God.

Best recollection?If Achan is at home, he gets some roasted peanuts or chana and we wait for Amma to return.
Then she makes tea.
Then we all wait near the stair case and make small boats and float them in the water....

Prodigal Son - Reloaded One of the most beautiful parables in Holy Bible. I don't think there are any other parables which had described father's love to such a great extend. No words to describe, except AMAZING !!! I had some questions that came to my mind when I meditated on the parable. 1. The son was able to come back to father's love only because he had experienced that love before. How is it possible for someone to come back to that father's love if he/she hasn't ever experienced that in life ? I got the beautiful answer for this. The soul is always in search of God. There is always a thirst for the goodness, Lord. Even if I do not know God, but still my soul will be in search for that ultimately and it will try to reach there. 2. When the son is asking for the share, why is his father not convincing him to stay back or explain to him the consequences of going away. The father is a person of love. He knows only the love language and in that langua...

Its all about Kids

I used to wonder when my kids ( 4 Year Old , 2 Year Old) play with my smart phone. They would have observed me working on the phone for couple of times and now it looks like they are experts on my phone. How fast are these children getting accustomed to new technologies. This also pointed me to another side of parenting. How fast are these kids picking up from what their parents do. I am sure mobile phones are completely a new entity for a kid. Unless he/she observes and learn, he will not be able to understand the device. Look at their observation power. They grab the thing so fast that even by 50 year old mother struggles for months to study about the same smart phone. How does all these happen ? Kids do have tremendous observation skills and most of their learning happens through observing. They keenly observe each and every thing happening around them and it gets stored in their brain very quickly. This is because the brain is very new and all the learning are new learning's...
