We do not remember days; we remember moments


This is so true .. that we remember moments. Moments that stay in our hearts always .. moments that we look back at and feel our hearts fill with emotions -- it was one such evening today.
Our friends had dropped buy for tea and I served them upma that I made for tiffin and chai with salt crackers.

In my earlier blog, I mentioned about our wedding CD. Well, today we saw our reception CD. I must confess, it was a reception very well planned by my parents and in-laws. Close to a 1000 people attended to bless us. I realise its full value now that I live 10's of 1000's of miles away from my home country.

It reminded me of my college class mates, work collegues, friends who grew up with me in my neighborhood and most importantly my entire family. Ladies adorned with jewels and men folk striking casual conversations made the atmosphere festive. There we were on the dias, center of attention that evening .. dressed in a orange-gold silk sari with gold ornaments standing beside my handsome hubby. Well.. like they say, we remember moments ..

All I can say is .. We are very much looking forward to Archu's Ayush Homam (Traditional 1st Birthday) in Chennai on Oct 25th. I am sure it will be an occasion to meet all our relatives at one go and revive lost connections.

What's on my mind now

How hard can job hunt be ? Two simple words, but a long process behind it. As on July 2010, the unemployment rate in USA stands at 9.5%, including 14.6 Million unemployed persons. ( source - US Census Bureau) Where are the jobs ? Are unpaid internships even worth the time and effort ? Especially in Houston - spending all that money on filling your gas tank, and daycare, in pursuing an unpaid internship while in school ? I don't know ! Hi-Tech thieves selling children's social security numbers long before the little one's even have a bank account ! How horrific ..

Live it

Scars of time

Situations we wish never happened in the first place, certain periods of time that seemed to pass very slow, like eternity but that will also pass. But there is always a reminder lingering in the mind, i think it is subconcious, and is there to stay in you for as long as you live.
