Human Mind

The most complicated yet simple thing It comes up with a million question and conditions Yet settle for a very simple answer The answer might even kill her or make her move on Her location is still a mystery Which is quite good and bad Bcos ppl might even donate or transplant her She imagines ppl to her life She thinks she cannot survive without them She becomes close and distant without reason She gets hurt and breaks into pieces Yet she trusts again with a mark She thinks 100 times before trusting a person But blindly loves them after trusting Yet when ppl hurt her She settles for a simple answer Acceptance The human mind is a complicated simple thing

Just Secularism

8 major religions Numerous minor religions Each with its similarities And its own differences Each unique in its own way Hinduism with its numerous traditions and customs Islam trying to prove that their intense faith is not fanaticism Christianity with their values and prayers Buddhism trying to preach love Sikhism teaching the values Jainism preaching self control and non violence Each religion has its many sub division Each different and same Every individual is different in their own way Yet they live together In a very friendly way They live in the same place Work in the same place Celebrate the festivals together Comfort each other Fight like sibling And stand together in Tim of crisis To say it in one word It can be said love and understanding between people Or just secularism

Dreams World

I had a dream In which I lived In a world of unreality Which seemed so real The grass was greener And people sweeter I imagined people liked me for what I am Without any great expectation The only expectation was a honest care and a true smile Where appearance did not matter And pain was only in the dictionary But yet another time The bubble burst But this time it did not pain Maybe I am too used to it Or too numb

Idli - The soft steaming Wonder

Idli is the most favorite dish of all people not only for the South Indian but most people around the world. Any traveller , tourist, Business person coming to Tamil Nadu will want to try the Hot Steaming Idli and its accomplishments for sure. The simple idli have a complex but easy way of making it. Before the recipe, I wanted to know more about its History. I googled it and found  Idli (and the process of steaming) was known in India by as early as 700 CE which is not shocking.  Earliest mention of idli occurs in the  Kannada  writing called  Vaddaradhane  by  Shivakotiacharya  in 920 AD, and it seems to have started as a dish made only of fermented black lentil.Lentil is a edible pulse and is black is one variety of it.Chavundaraya II, the author of the earliest available Kannada encyclopaedia,  Lokopakara  (c. 1025), describes the preparation of idli by soaking  urad dal  (black gram) in butter milk, ground to a fine...

The Bridal Drama

She starts thinking of him when she reads about Cindrella and Sleeping Beauty She visualizes when see reaches the butterfly phase She hurts and bruises herself through crushes and crushes She grows up and blooms into a swan She transforms her dreams and wishes into a dream figure She looks out for that person and even makes a few wrong choices Some land up finding him others leave it in the name of emotions Reality intervenes in the form of relatives and society They shower her with advice,suggestions and what not They parade her among endless people who are bothered about only superficial things They in the end manage to find a person so called  the groom He imagines himself  as Zeus Twin and his family as the Greek Kingdom The actual one day tamasha starts. Spending huge money for one day Of course it is a important in people life But the tension, The confusion and also the joy But in sometimes the girls thinks the next day Is it worth it????

Karishma Chat

A friend told me about this place and said we get one of the best pani puri's here. I am always of fond of chats and wanted to try this place.The place is a roadside chat shop situated in front of a big clothing shop.I wanted to go try this. And there were a lot of crowd every time i cross it. I am not a patient person and queues and crowds irritate me. One day i decided to brave the crowd and try it. After standing in the crowd for about 10 minutes, I managed to find the place in the "Inner Circle". Inner circle is the crowd standing around the Big basket holding the puris. It looks like a big block standing on a three legged stand. The Pani puri walla is wearing a glove for hygienic purposes or atleast to give us a feeling that it is hygiene. Which in my view is good. His assistant breaks the puris and fills it with not very spicy aloo masala. He dips it in the clay pot containing the pani. I am not sure of the ingredients of the pani. But it is a little spicy and ha...

Haji Alis Faloodas & Creams

I was in a mood to indulge myself . So I decided to go to Haji Alis Faloodas & Creams located on G.N.Chetty road in T.Nagar.  I skimmed the menu card, which is one of my favourite things to do. They had a wide range of juices, mik shakes, falooda with or without ice creams, sandwiches, pizzas and burgers to choose from. I am always of the opinion that we are supposed to eat the right food from the right place.  So I ordered a Chocolate falooda (sounds yummy right?) and a lemon mint juice. I am a proud chocolate addict and have a habit to choose anything that is chocolate based. Though they had faloodas of different variations (regular, mango flavoured etc.), I settled for a chocolate falooda. As I waited in expectation for my treat to arrive, I scanned the menu and the menu offered a wide option of fresh juices and milk shakes. For the snacks, they have the classic sandwiches and also the trendy pizzas and burgers. Atlast the falooda arrived and it looked de...
