imemyself: January 2009
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Jan 29, 2009. When i finish reading a book. My continuous date with some or the other author continues. i finish with one, i have another one waiting. it is a ceaseless process. so that is not new, what is, is my new fascination for Indian writers in English. And one more thing i discovered with this book. who says history cannot be fodder for modern minds? Try this and tell me how you like it. Links to this post. But recen...

imemyself: March 2009
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Mar 29, 2009. Our parenting, their parenting. Today was the end of one more year from R school. she's now in 8th. has done reasonably ok, can do better. but that is not what i want to talk about. Certain things don't change. certain things we can't unlearn. certain things die only with us. but one thing remains constant: the love for one's child and the fear that the child will not be able to face the world alone. I do not ...

imemyself: April 2009
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Apr 30, 2009. Of late, i have been going through a phase of soul searching. Soul searching on: do i have more things than i require? Is it becasue of a lack of respect for what i have? Do i buy stuff just because i fancy them at that point and then rethink the decision of buying and never use the stuff i have bought? Have i become a hoarder? Only then will i feel completely LIGHT. and this time, i mean business. Apr 26, 2009.

imemyself: February 2009
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Feb 26, 2009. Where does one draw the line? An aunt is suddenly diagnosed with cancer, is operated and is recuperating. Mom is upset and sad. she calls me to inform. One week after the call and the news, i am not sure how to feel. should i be sad? Yes, one part of my mind is certainly feeling a trifle sad. I can see the grimace on your faces. how can i be so heartless? What's so new in that? NO and that is me. i would r...

imemyself: November 2009
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Nov 25, 2009. Today is your 14th birthday. I have been reliving this entire week in my mind. what i did, when, how, with whom, who said what, why, what were my reactions and so on. it is a long long list. and you were still inside me and every minute I was saying to you, "Do you hear that, little girl? No we had not tested to know the sex of our child, but I was convinced that you would be you, a girl). Links to this post.

imemyself: teaching 'life' in 5 minutes flat
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009/10/teaching-life-in-5-minutes-flat.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Oct 25, 2009. Teaching 'life' in 5 minutes flat. What a contradiction in terms. can anyone teach about life? Or is it life that goes about, in its own inimitable way, teaching one and all? Both, i feel are true. yes, life is the best teacher, but i saw no harm in teaching a little wisdom to my little girl (actually not so little any more) when she came back from school in tears. My first response was: are you ok? Now the nu...

imemyself: Healthy Birthday, Ma
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009/12/healthy-birthday-ma.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Dec 13, 2009. Healthy Birthday, Ma. Today she turned 70. and when i called early morning over a cup of steaming tea, her landline was busy. guess who called? My Dad's brother with whose family and another aunt (again my Dad's sister) she is going for her next holiday to the Andamans, end of the year. This hint i will not take, Ma. i leave the connection bit to you. Two holidays per year in the 6th/7th decade of her life?

imemyself: she does not have to be a dancer
http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009/11/she-does-not-have-to-be-dancer.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Nov 22, 2009. She does not have to be a dancer. Is what i think, but not B of R and that was the provocation for the last fight that we had. nothing new, we keep having it every now and then, especially weekends. Not enough said or protested, because she did not tell this to us earlier. on the penultimate day, how can she say this. i am going to pick her up right now and register my protest that this is an unprofess...We le...

http://imemyself-imemyself.blogspot.com/2009/11/letter-from-daughter-to-her-father.html
This is MY life with THREE most important people - I call them, I, ME and MYSELF. Nov 1, 2009. Letter from a daughter to her father. Yes, all of these are no longer there in me…while I am more at ease with life in general, there is no freshness in the face, no lilt in my smile and no innocence in the eyes. I have come of age. And that I hope to fight in my child. Thanks so much. Im so happy to have a friend like you! November 2, 2009 at 9:35 AM. Very touching and real! November 4, 2009 at 5:25 PM. Letter...
