A Blue Dot of Thoughts. Monday, September 24, 2007. On Punctuality: the virtue of the bored. Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.

A Blue Dot of Thoughts. Wednesday, June 25, 2014. What the Nose knows. It is believed that some smells are so familiar that one can dream of them. It is not only places and things , smells can even remind you of specific people. It may sound silly but whenever I think of my father, it is the fresh smell of detergent from his clothes that comes to my mind. Yet another smell I associate with him is the smell of havan – a mix of burning of wood, camphor and Havan samagri . Wednesday, June 18, 2014. But then...
