After a long time...so much to say....

What is it that I had not got a chance to write in anything in this space for close to 9 months ?? Should I attribute this to being extremely busy with my work, or that wifey and the kid came in May and they keep me busy...be it whatever, I had almost forgotten about blogging......until I came across interesting aspects and many facets of life during my trip to India over the new year's....
The most important reason I had been to India just after 10 months of landing here was --- my loving sister Sheetal got married to one Kiran (can you belive that ??..I mean his name) -- "Kiran's BIL is Kiran" (something on the lines of "Chandramouli maga Chandramouli" from Gouri-Ganesha).
It was good to see mom after 10 months...Got to spend a whole lot time with her...learned few important things about parenting.....and life as whole...
Got to know what really matters in life....and what is important....??

I have finally pursued mom to come visit us in May. If I just say come over, she would not. I have told it is a good opportunity to witness Sheetal's graduation in Chicago and she agreed. I am excited and looking forward to showing her what this country is. While India has taught me what life is, I cannot belittle America's contribution to what I am today. My decision to go back to Bangalore in the coming years is 99% certain, but America will always be close to my heart.

Sister's wedding went well...really well...people who came in had lot of kudos to Amma's sacrifice to mine and Sheetal's life and without her and her determination, we would be nowhere.

Hey, I got to watch a wonderful movie by name "Taare Zameen Par", an Aamir Khan starrer (the actor I admire the most). I would not want to describe the movie here, but would say it is a must watch for anyone, especially parents and teachers. It was worth giving the money for the ticket.

It is now a lengthy post and I make it a point to come here and scribble something often....but, I should confess that I do not have anythign to right now at work and as such blogging. I am told that the next three to four months will be hectic. This blogspot will decide that...
