Thought for the day

You’ve failed many times, although you don’t remember.
You fell down the first time you tried to walk.
You almost drowned the first time you tried to swim.

Don’t worry about failures.
Worry about the chances you miss when you fail to try.

Kitchen is not my favorite room in a house. I have never liked cooking. I have always had this image that it's a chore and only done by 'housewives'. I need to build a good image of cooking. Since preparing food is inevitable and I have to do it I may as well enjoy doing it.
Although it's my dream to have a full time cook and servant at home plus a driver and a gardener maybe. :-)

Utsavam At Tirumala

Here are the pictures from tirumala.org. They are taken at the Padmavathi Parinayam Utsavam that's happening at the Narayanagiri Garden, Tirumala. Doesn't it look splendind??
This is an annual event. I wanted to go last year but couldn't. Same this time too. Next time I hope to make it

Hmm

ಪಾಲಿಗೆ ಬಂದದು ಪಂಚಾಮೃತ
संतोषी सदा सुखी
போதும் என்ர மனமே போன்செய்யும் மருந்து
It means a satisfied mind is the best medicine....

Contentment is the key to happiness....in any language

The Question

'What is wrong with me?', I often ask myself and my brother and my mother and whoever is available. Really, what's wrong with me?

Self Pity

My father used to say, 'undu thindhu gandagagi atharanthe....'.
I never understood it's meaning then.
Now, I am beginning to get it :)
