The Moon was as bright as the Sun on 30th January 2010. It was a magnificent sight as the Moon shone like a beautiful Star and the silver moonshine enveloped it to light up the dark skies.

A Sweet Gesture
Our life is a little disoriented these days as our kitchen is under renovation. We are literally living out of a tray for the last five weeks. Cooking happens in the morning and lunch is stored for the afternoon. The carpenters take over the kitchen from 10 am and hand it over to us by 7 pm. Emptying the kitchen is a mammoth task. We have then been surviving with limited resources as major utensils have been neatly packed. We generally do not have too many guests visiting us but these weeks have been very socially bustling for us. So it has been tough and tough are we not!! This morning Rashmi aunty was on her routine walk with her friend from Germany. Must add here how much I admire her for being so regular with her morning and evening walks. I even hold great admiration fro my mother who too is very regular with her exercise regime. So going back to Rashmi aunty. Mum and I were sitting in the porch when Rashmi aunty walked up and said she would be visiting us as soon as she finishes her walk. And she mentioned just one cup of tea and no snacks with it. I sheepishly admitted that tea was difficult to get as we do not have access to the kitchen till late evening. But nevertheless they were most welcome to come over. Rashmi aunty and her friend came over after fifteen minutes and mummy and I just could not believe that aunty was carrying tea for us. What lovely guests who bring tea with them. We all sipped a nice hot cup of tea and while leaving Rashmi aunty filled our flask with tea for the evening too. That was so touching and an absolutely caring gesture that we can never forget.
