The roads taken. And not taken. More often than not, they define who we become.

The colour of red, yellow and white signify relgion. On a plate, they are far more potent !

The Powai lake, Mumbai.
People tell me that this was once a secluded picnic spot. Today, it struggles to retain its place amidst all the skyrises and Ganpati idols.
Over time, our lakes have come to see what we can inflict on them.  Anyday, they just emit beauty !

The wife’s hand and the Mercedes ad. The talk of drool has many images in my mind. All scurrying through.
Drool. Indeed.

Flower Garland outside at temple at Mahad. This is a standard feature of all temples around here.
In their aroma and in their colour they convey a strange but serene meaning.

This is called the Gopuram. And when you stand underneath and view it from many angles, you wonder, how on Earth people built this 400 years ago.

Without cranes, safety equipment and the like. There sure must have been something that coursed in their veins. There sure must have been.

The towers have always fascinated. For you could see it from afar. When the train chugs into Madurai, just as its hitting Koodal Nagar, the towers emerge.
And the heart flutters a bit. For sighting the towers, is a sign. That i am back home.

The tower at the Meenakshi Amman Temple at Madurai. One heck of a tower. One heck of a temple.
Standing for over 400 years, i wonder how many different types of airs the temple would have seen.
And it still is standing.

Conversation is just not between heads of state. Or CEOs. Or whoever. Its between ordinary people in their daily life. Like these construction workers.

The Gateway of the fort at Moti Daman. It sure must have seen very different days, and very different armies.
The only army that comes there these days, is the small army of ‘different’ tourists. The other large army of tourists are there in Daman for other reasons.
