@ Mr Froehlich:

Its shocking to note that cursive writing is not tought in school. I too had a cursive handwriting. However, I liked the way my Hand writing is when I tried it out.

@ Bhanu

Lol. true.

@ Prax

Yes, the letter conveys litte info. It was also meant to be. It was just a shot at writing something.

@ Gautam

Haw haw haw. You caught me there. Nice one.

@ Sindhu

Thank you so much Sindhu. By the time I am typing this, you have already posted it.

Hi Ravi,

I am fine. Presume the same with you.

What you said about the fibre is true. And the flowers were also wrapped in Banana leaves, as you said. That gave a sweet smell too.

@ Bhanu Kishore

you are right. Khadi was once popular. But I still buy Khadi clothes. I get a feeling of satisfaction when I buy them and also when I wear them.

If one visits the Khadi Gramodhya Bhavan, you can also buy many other things. Most of the things are natural products. There are also products/sweets/savouries which once were popular and are diminishing these days.

As you said, due to the challenges, we might expect the changes soon to happen.

I must also point out that there are sure a bunch of people who still follow the traditional/non-polluting ways.

Hmmm, from a cursory analysis of your handwriting I have come to a conlusion that you suffer from a low self esteem, u are afraid of riding a vehicle, u are un-comfortable in the presence of loud mouthed people….Hey just kidding

Your last statement is profound. Our handwriting makes us unique, but as a sloppy writer I’m thankful for having a laptop and keyboard so I can type and correct my mistakes easily. As a teacher, I wish I could have all student type rather than write, because their penmanship is horrible. It’s more and more difficult to find people with legible penmanship. And writing in cursive, forget about it. They don’t even teach it in school anymore. Soon, perhaps, we’ll all be using a hand held touch phone to write everything.

The blank space between “a” and “while” is almost absent. Its not a mistake though.

Comment on LTA Rules by Taru

Taru — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 09:44:15 +0000

I wish to claim the LTA for the block 2006-2009 & having following doubts:
1. Can I claim two LTA exemptions in same year. i.e. can I claim LTA for Aug’08 & Dec-08 ?

2. Can I include my Husband’s expenses also in my LTA claim, though he is not in my dependents list ?

3. Can I claim LTA now for Dec’07 & Dec’08.

Thanks in Advance,
Taru

i tried using diary for past 1-2 years. i used it for exactly 1 month and then found the diary after 3 months amid dust ) so, i turned to blogging and this is way better than trying a diary. probably, both of these have their own pros n cons blogging and using diary

too many networking sites to hide our privacy from!
i’ve seen people literally living their lives in these networking sites. however, if we still want to save our private space the only way is to keep away from them photo, video sharing has already led to many photographic manipulations. wonder where we headed to in cyber space in the next five years!

bhanu kishore — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 19:39:15 +0000

great insight, this post reminds me how we lived in yester years and the fact that we have adapted to ‘cosmo’ life. i generally don’t encourage plastic given in stores except when i happen to visit shopping malls. however, i recycle paper. probably same can be said of khadi (once very popular) being not hep among us.

indians must have become more fashion-centric than environment-friendly. however with current environment challenges, we might expect some changes.

VBR, long time no see? How are you?
Adding to your point on the fibre from banana tree, there is also a reason to it.
If you notice, the fibre is first soaked in water inorder for the fibre to absorb
it. So when the flowers are tied using this fibre, the moisture/water in the fibre
extend the flowers’ freshness to some extent. I don’t know if the cotton twine
of today can serve the same purpose.

Hi Ravi,

I still remember the days when the flower vendor used to knit together the flowers on a fibre from the banana tree and not on a twine like these days.

Even the hair combs were made of wood.

As you said, our natural products are healthier and devoid of side effects. They also do not pollute the enivornment.

Comment on Why? by Ravi

Ravi — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 14:52:32 +0000

Wow Ankur, you have touched upon a subject on which I constantly lament about! And your comment here (the 2nd comment) is absolutely true. I think, just like many other things, in our bid to yap the west, we have failed to appreciate and value our own treasures. Saying “I use this gel, shampoo, bodyspray…” seems more hep than saying “I use shikakai, turmeric and neem”. But I still stick to our own traditional things - mostly! except maybe soap. And I can assert that any day, our own cosmetics and ways of life are much much healthier than any other artificial product and more importantly, devoid of any ill side effects!

And what has irked me the most is how we have fallen prey to plastic bags. I remember how even the flower vendor used banana or some other leaf but today its plastic plastic plastic bag everywhere. Seeing a recent ppt from greenpeace, I made it a point not to use plastic bags anymore. I re-use old ones or carry a bag.

Absolutely correct
As Calvin say (Calvin & Hobbes):
” In short term, it would make me happy to go play outside. In the long term, it would make me happier to do well at school & become successful. But in the very long run, i know which will make better Memories.”

Ankur Aggarwal — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 15:16:17 +0000

more money can be made selling cosmetics.. than milk and turmeric.. hence the advertizing is creating a demand for the goods.

these days there is a resurgence of natural products… people who were earlier blindly aping the west are now turning around and re-embracing their culture…

Comment on Thus spoke Love-Guru by Voracious Blog Reader

Voracious Blog Reader — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 13:28:19 +0000

Hi Skabeesh,

Good that the relationship got better due to your help.

- - - -

In a relationship, irrespective of whether the Man or Woman has problems coping up, shouldn’t they not deal with the problems themselves?

Asking/consulting/discussing with friends/well wishers shows that the person is not close enough with his/her partner to discuss such issues.

Everybody face difficulties. When the issue cannot be dealt with by themselves, the immediate family could be bought in. Bringing in friends would even more concentrate the situation, if your partner knows about you confiding issues to your friend. Worse still would be when the friend is of the opposite gender. Eventhough everybody would refute the above statement, it is a unknown/unsaid/understood truth.
