crossword: The Story of an Ant
http://kbhavan.blogspot.com/2010/06/story-of-ant.html
Wednesday, June 30, 2010. The Story of an Ant. Once upon a time lived an ant. Diligent and simple as its wont. The likes of which are now scant. It is to who I dedicate this rant. It was friends with a certain bee. And for good measure another three. None was perfect to any degree. But in general were quite happy. The ant worked hard day and night. Not losing focus even in the slight. For it dreamt of reaching a height. From where it could soar like a kite. Like all tales with an expected twist. Warmth b...

crossword: Observation
http://kbhavan.blogspot.com/2010/05/observation.html
Wednesday, May 12, 2010. This evening while riding the bus, saw a guy get on board with his cycle. It took him nearly 5 minutes to compress it into half its size by tucking in the seat, collapsing the handlebar and folding the wheels together. All this while, the bus driver and the other passengers waited without a murmur. I was staring at it all in amazement contrasting it with the behavior elsewhere. It will take me a lot longer than I thought to blend in mentally and learn the ropes : ).

Thursday, March 26, 2009. A thirty-five year old man was running in the park. That in itself should hardly matter except that it was neither early morning to dismiss it as a exercise routine, nor was it to prevent an emergency. As the motley group of people surrounding him looked on, he picked pace as if determined to reach his destination. As all the others piled on him in jubilation and cheered his effort, the fielder looked across. The umpire had his right hand up in the air with the index finger ...

Thursday, March 12, 2009. A hurried narration of our Thailand trip. I have been meaning to write about this trip for the past 2 days. But my mind is flooded with so much to write that I don't know how to frame the entire thing. Anyway, here is my sincere attempt to do justice only to the itinerary. We got back exhausted and crashed in the hotel. In all, this was quite a hectic sight-seeing trip, not a relaxing one. :)Hope to have a rejuvenating trip next time. Wednesday, March 4, 2009. I agree that the u...

Wednesday, April 21, 2010. What are you willing to do to earn 5 Rs? It seems such a trivial sum that people may not even consider what the big deal is. What do you get for 5 now-a-days would be the first question. Half a glass of tea? Parking for an hour? Chennai is such a hot and humid place that you sweat just sitting under the fan. Forget bearing accessories like bags, your own clothes feel like a burden. On one such sweltering day when travelling by a local I saw a blind person entrain. The one with ...
