S: so? the house set up yet? and people? 
Me: oh long story. You don’t wanna know.
S: try me! :D
Me: Fine. You ask for it. 
While house hunting, the only things I was looking for, was a nice cozy place with abundant natural light, marble flooring and a big big washroom :D But life's bitch slap brought me back to Hyderabad and I was standing in front of my present home which has grey flooring and makes me feel like a cave-woman. Obviously, the house did not have much to offer except for safety. Oh and also, the blue bucket.
S: bucket??
Me: yeah. Apparently, your bucket is your time machine. Or pot of gold. Whichever you take to be more precious.
S: Enlighten?!
Me: Oh just the prev tenants, came about banging the door down (read: asking) for their bucket, mug and broomstick. Thrice!

Dio passed away. Fuck.
One of the world's greatest. Immortal. Unmatched. Legend.

So it's on and on and on, oh it's on and on and on
It goes on and on and on, heaven and hell

Vagina and the vaster void - II



Dedicated to ma/amma/ammi..however you choose to call her..you're my strength and I will ALWAYS look up to you. Much love :)


My first post discussed Eve Ensler's testimony on rape and violence against women in DRC. On mother's day, I happened to watch another of Eve's videos on TED. Here's an excerpt:


And I want to talk about a girl that I just met recently in Bukavu, who was impregnated by her rapist.And she was holding her baby. And I asked her if she loved her baby. And she looked into her baby's eyes and she said, "Of course I love my baby. How could I not love my baby? It's my baby and it's full of love".


How can something born in a moment of absolute hatred, be so full of love? Only a mother would know.

Lady-whatever your name is- you amaze me. Hope that both you and your baby lead a healthy and successful life.


Here's wishing every mother and mother to be, a very happy Mother's day!
