Himalayas…through the eyes of a man who has seen it all


Himalayas has always fascinated me. Its snowy peaks,its awesome magnitude, its
legends,its mythologies….it’s pretty hard for an indian not to be felt humbled(is
that a generalization too much? maybe, maybe not) .
So, as there was an opportunity to attend the talk by Mr. Harish Kapadia on
Himalayas,l had to be there. This is what I like about being in this place the most
so far (ok ok,I am not being entirely truthful, but let it be). We already were
privileged enough to listen to Mr. Nandan Nilekani and Mr.James Abraham .
Maybe a write up later sometime on these sessions (if the quizzes and projects let
me be alive that long.)

Rain and Sunshine

Rain and sunshine…..
Both parts of mine.
I need ya all, I need ya badly
To satiate the thirst of my
Soul-pine…….

I am looking up
I am looking down;
And it looked back straight
With its frown….

I shed my tears
I bled all along
Yet laughter in my heart
With a suppressed song.

I am a tortured soul
Take me home….
Take me with you
To the hallowed dome.

Words and sketches are all i have….

“You think that I don’t even mean a single word I say.
It’s only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart away.”
– Boyzone

Most of you have surely heard this song ample number of times. Now to give a
brief introduction of myself, here is a little modified tagline… Words are all i
have to give to all of youthrough this effort of blogging…So,to tell who i am,
here it goes with two of my most favourite quotes that should tell you who i am
or rather want to be.i think those give a much better intro about inner me (what
the …,i hear u say :D)than i can ever give in my own words. Anyways….

“I have only a sword,but a strong man need wish for no more than this: a sword
in the hand,a horse between his knees and the woman he loves at the battle’s end.”
~ Mathurin Kerbouchard in ‘The Walking Drum’ by Louis L’Amour.

“If in this hell of a world, one can bring a little joy and peace,even for a day, into
the heart of a single person, that much alone is true”
~ Swami Vivekananda.
