When Do You Restart Blogging?

There are so many times you want to restart blogging, some of which include:

• Seeing at least five photos of Shobha Karandlaje every evening in the local newspaper – Her cycling, running, lighting the lamp, getting on a bullock cart and several other skills are truly admirable.
• Being the proud father of a darling daughter, whose picture was clicked by tens of cell phone camera owners, when roaming around Mysore palace during Dasara.
• Watching cricket on TV, day and night, and realizing how much I miss this in America.
• Completely getting frustrated by the traffic in Bangalore and cursing myself for being the ‘ohhh so sensitive’ NRI.
• Celebrating Deepavali with fireworks after more than a decade.
• Tracing Bendre‘s path which inspired him to write ‘mooDala maneya muttina nIrina’.
• Getting a CD released, which has my poems, my mother’s music and the biggest contemporary singers.
• Getting annoyed by the pathetic quality of Zee Kannada Sa Re Ga Ma Pa and especially getting irritated by immature comments from ‘judges’ such as Archana Udupa.

• Mother and son talking way past midnight; listening to Susan Boyle, Adam Lambert, S.Janaki, P.Susheela and others; reminiscing the old days; remembering so many old friends, wondering where they are now; talking about all the happy moments, and the not-so happy ones, and learning several new things in the process; nostalgia……

Life is beautiful…………..
