Transition (Reality...?)

[Guest guest]

You got to be joking, dear! The " east-end " of the town is getting pelted with

snow-storm after snow-storm! Who has the time or luxury to think of flowers and

spring, when all we seem to be doing is 'shovelling'! And then in the

cyber-realm there is more shovelling and cleaning up that needs to be carried

out on a daily basis ;-)

 

But when all that is done, for the time being, one appreciates even more the hot

cup of Masala Chai with extra adrak that clears the sinuses and brings peace to

the aching-aging muscles.

missed out on life's simple pleasure and some good fun for 3 decades..I had a

great holi yesterday with my local Indian community..I danced all night long,

played with colors and had some good Indian food.

with Abir,Gulal and you are requested not to use harmful colours and any type of

intoxicating drinks.Please avoid to take sweets made of synthetic materials as

synthetic and adulterated ''MAVA'' is being sold every where in the open market

and there is rampant corruption in this regard and administration has failed to

take preventive action in this regard.
