System Shift

news papers have only 'serious sensational issues' on the first page! that's why one of the leading news papers in Malayalam published Hon. minister Mr. Vayalar Ravi kissing his wife to celebrate the joy of being 'cabinet minister'. everyday i get up with an excitement to see such interesting pictures or stories! but today something unusual was there, there was the list of minsters taking charge in the new government and at the same time their experience in politics and qualification . adding to my surprise, i found that there are many ministers in early thirties and forties which is a recent phenomena. most of the ministers in the new government are highly educated and able politicians. average age of the ministers is 50. thanks to the news paper for provoking a thought on this!

Turbulence in Mind

When we start a project or work the initial days are harder. it creates hurricanes in mind and can't think of anything else than running away and escaping. but i am not going to give up. the turbulence will be solved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Walk in The Rain

Rain evokes different kinds of feelings in different people. Some might like it, some might be overwhelmed by the very sight of it,some might hate the clumsiness of it, or dislike the smell etc etc. I love rain in all senses. But yesterday i had to walk in the rain, in one of the roads of ' the centre of mosquitoes', Fort Kochi. The waste from the drainage system which was totally dysfunctional was floating in the 'mini flood'. This water was splashing on the pedestrians whenever a vehicle passed. I saw a bike rider falling in this water. People had to literally swim to reach the shore. Human waste, animal waste, inorganic wastes, small insects, mosquitoes, smell - everything gave the rain a 'terrible' picture in my mind. And this is 'Greater Cochin Development'.
