In the meantime we have started a new year and have a brand new president in Washington who happens to be black. That is a record for this country! Already I have noticed welcome changes being made in few spheres of our lives.
Personally, I find that my faith has undergone some changes too. I have become more acceptable of circumstances in which I find myself at the present. Do not have much of a choice on that any way. I have a new hairstyle- very, very short at present. But I have been told it will grow eventually. Though I am still undergoing treatment I find that I have become stronger, more patient and flexible. I am also looking forward towards the future with more energy. That is appropriate with advent of Spring all over the world.
This is when I think of my motherland every year. Around this time in India we celebrated the 'festival of colors' or Holi. Though this is a major Hindu festival it is celebrated by people of other faith too. It is always celebrated on the day after the full moon in early March. People sprinkle each other with bright colored water and colored powder with abandon. It's almost like every one wants to bring color back to the world after a dreary winter. Of course there are many stories why this festival is celebrated- the main one being that dark skinnedLord Krishna complained to his mother why his skin was so dark while his playmate Radha was so fair. In answer to that his mother told him to spray her with colored water to make her look more like him.
Well, it is April already and I find that I still have not updated my blog. Well, I am still on the road to recovery, feeling a little bit better every day. I am back to doing the usual things around the house. And I have gone back to adding new recipes to my cookbook again.
That is all for today. I will try write more frequently in future.
