Dogs seem to have figured out the essence of life which is to love and to be loved. As I was watching the cute dog videos online, I came up with this composition which made me pour out the love for dogs. Wishing to have one real soon!

Of all my childhood memories, the strongest are from when I was in school. It was a pleasure narrating this story, as I still feel connected to all the fun and laughter. Going to school by bus, auto and van were enjoyable, as we could meet so many naughty and funny characters on the way, from cute little kiddos to sassy seniors. In short, it feels like everything happened just yesterday. Remembering all my drivers who were absolute entertainment during my journey to school and back. 

Recently I came across the difficulties faced by color blind people. At least in Asia, there is not much awareness surrounding this subject. Do watch this video & if you liked it, please help to share among your network.  YouTube Video Link: Simple Somethings https://youtu.be/4wjE0FlKDww

எனக்கு இங்கு எழுதுவதற்கு ஒன்றும் இல்லை. கதையை புரிந்து கொள்ளும் ஒவ்வொருவரும் சுயமாக யோசுத்து செயல் படுவீர்கள் என்று நம்புகிறேன். நான் எழுதிய ஒரு சிறுகதை. ஆனால் இது ஒரு உண்மை சம்பவம்.  கேளுங்கள், பகிருங்கள்.

ஆனந்தின் ஒரு குணம், அவனுக்கும், பிறருக்கும் சந்தோஷத்தை  கொடுத்தது. இரு கை கூப்பி கடவுளை வணங்குவதை விட, ஒரு கை நீட்டி இதை செய்தால், இரு கை உங்களை வணங்கும் கடவுளாக. அது, எது என்பதை, இக்கதையை கேட்டு தெரிந்து கொள்ளுங்கள். கேளுங்கள், மகிழுங்கள், பகிருங்கள்.
