Saggi-tales turns one today!! :) 

A big thank you to all who read my blog patiently, and give honest feedback.  Also, a special thanks to the people who constantly encourage me to update my blog, if there has been a long gap between posts! ;)

Thank you all… Hoping for the same support and love in the coming times!

Thank you Sachin…

The end of a glorious era came to an end on November 16, 2013! The God Of Cricket retired… 

 

His style of batting, his straight drives and his mere presence on the field will be thoroughly missed!! Children start to play Cricket with the idea of being ‘Sachin Tendulkar’. I have no idea how Cricket will be after Sachin… I will not get into his statistics and records since it’s HUMUNGOUS and outstanding!! As my father said, it would take generations to break his record and Sachin himself will not be able to break his record. 

Always called as the God of Cricket and Master Blaster, he is also a superb human being! The way he dedicates his centuries or records, by looking up, is simply beautiful! The fan following he has is just brilliant! I still remember my Grandmother praying to God so that Sachin doesn’t become Out!! That’s how much we love him!  

His retirement speech and the way, for the last time, he walked to the pitch, touched it and walked back to the green-room with tears, made me cry! Showing respect to the 22 yards that made him “Sachin Tendulkar” was a wonderful gesture! 

Indeed, a man of such humbleness, status and ‘records’ will always be cherished and remembered! Yet again, Cricket without Sachin is new to all of us… 

Thank You Sachin. 

The Angel of my life…

I knew her for about 2 months. She was my friend’s sister. She was the sweetest person I ever knew, the person who is so generous and cares ‘so’ much that you would wish to be with her for a long time. I loved talking to her, we spoke on simple things, on life, and she made me view things differently. 

2 days before my Class 12 examination, my friend called me and informed me about her accident. The news shattered me. The person I wished to have along with me the entire life was no more! The incident shook my world. It took me days to let reality sink in…

She came into my life and taught me so many things. I still ask her to guide me. She had promised me that she would meet me at the end of my exams…  God’s plans are never known. Indeed!

They say ‘life moves on’. It did, but at the slowest rate possible. Not a day goes by without thinking about her. It has been 3 years and 7 months and still I shudder at the sound of an ambulance.

Sometimes I hope it was all a dream and that I would find her online… 

It's Navratri time!!

Time to celebrate, time to get cherish, time to meet people, time for Carnatic songs, time for traditions..!! :)
Oh and yes, it's also time for the variety of yummmmyyy sundal-s...
Well.. Happy Navratri to all!! :)

The little things in life...

Hello everybody..! I know it has been ages since I updated my blog. I was so caught up with assignments and stuff that I couldn’t write down a lot of things that kept crossing my mind in these 2 months. :(

Being so busy and tied up with work all the time made me realize that we keep running to get ahead in life, to make ourselves better than others, to compete and to excel in everything, that we miss out on the little things in life. Right from the time we wake up till the time we go back to bed completing the circle of our chores in a day, we tend to miss out or ignore the small things that would give us real happiness…

In our busy schedule, try to make some time for absolute randomness. Call your close friend, talk about something, talk about nothing… enjoy a cup of tea just by yourself, with no thoughts crossing your mind… have an ice cream in the rain(my personal favorite)… give a nice tight hug to your parents… talk to a dog or cat (it’s equally fun)!!

It indeed works! It would bring a smile across your face in a day that is going bad.

Appreciate the little things in life as they only make way to better memories…:)
