Favorite words from "A hundred little flames"

sometimes, when you run a race and you are nearing the finish, you feel you have used up the very last reserve of strength within you and you can't go on anymore. Then suddenly the finish line looms large. You decide to complete the race. You give it all you have got. You dig deeper into your self, and an extra burst of energy which you never knew was within you, opens up from depths which you didn't know you had. You run with all your might, complete the race successfully and collapse - to rest and recover.

cute little things

    Hey all, it had been a long time since I posted the last blog post.    I will try to post at-least 3 a week. Now lets get in to today's post. INCIDENT 1 :             On a fine day, in the morning, mom was preparing channa masala for chappathi. Unfortunately, it was partially burnt. Some channas that settled down were burnt and the dish started to spread its burnt smell.             Dad came from hall, to the kitchen 'What happened pa, what is this smell.

We can manage with some other side dish' dad said that in a way of consoling my mom from the disaster.   ...

Is she the fish out of water?

    Everyone in her family was happy with the decision that they decided for her. But she is unsure is she capable of doing a responsible role in a family and importantly she is analysing the thing that can she love a guy with all her soul? and how good can she perform the role of a wife? She loved the rushing people to give her relationship advises, the way her family treated her as the bride, the shopaholic days and everything that were building up her wedding. It was two weeks before her wedding, she packed all her stuffs with the help of her sister. "Hey Dhira do you know how excited I am about your wedding? " said Shruthi with her chin supported with her left hand and mouth chewing their mom's special upputtu. "How many times I have asked you to call me by my full name? have you ever did that. At least in this two weeks don't irritate me am already scared " shouted Adhira. "This is too mean akka. You always allow Sahat to call you by this na...

The travel angel

      'Akka, when will the bus come? I really want to have a seat in the bus. Am so weary' I said to my sister by holding that hand bag that hung in my shoulder and the other hand holding the lunch bag and mobile.        'Same here da, I too want a seat' my sister said that in the same weary tone.        The sun was showing off its power by showering the heat, to which we showered in sweat.          Our mouth begged for water, but our water bottle disappointed us by saying 'you already completed your water, don't mistake me'.         'Hmmmmm' we sighed. Then we saw the bus. The bus was crowded and overflowed with students and other passengers.          'Noooo this should not happen, pleeeeeaaasseee God nooooo' I prayed a lot but 'No other way go in this bus' was the voice from universe.           When we both climbe...
