Sometimes that silver hair still really bothers me. Most times I don’t really care but every now and then it makes me feel so old. And I know I’ve been through some rough shit and genetics def play a role but it still just makes me feel bad sometimes. It’s probably just my birthday coming up.

Times like these, I don’t due my hair because I want to dye it because it’s fun and not because I feel like I need to.

WIP Wednesday

Wow, it's been a while since I've written anything but I had a sudden strong urge to write some of Peggy's Reaper War adventures. It's rusty as well but I'm sharing it anyway.

When Peggy had been a girl, her father (bless his heart) had tried to get her into fishing. (“There ain’t been fish in these parts for forever. What’s the point?” she remembered asking. “The point isn’t fish, it’s to fish,” he’d replied, with one of those bemused smiles of his. She hadn’t understood until long after he was gone.) On one of those trips, bored out of her little skull while her father happily cast line after line into the lake without so much as a minnow to show for it, she’d quite literally tripped over a rock with an odd shape pressed into it. The skinned knee she got hardly even registered when she realized she held a real, live fossil in her hands. A trilobite, her science teacher called it when she brought it in to school with her the next week, a creature that didn’t exist on Earth anymore except in the impressions it left in ancient mud that turned to stone. She’d kept that rock for years, fascinated by the perfect shape it left in the stone that told her so much about it. What it looked like, where it lived, how it lived–all from a creature that lived and died hundreds of million of years before she ever even drew breath. It was amazing, really, how much one could draw from just the impression others left in the world around them. She knew, for instance, that Faizah had children she hadn’t seen or heard from since before the Reapers came down from the sky. And that Johnson’s parents had both enlisted in the fight but that he hadn’t been able to contact them for weeks. And that Kohli’s brothers were MIA on the far side of the galaxy. It wasn’t from anything in particular any of them had said. Such was the strong unspoken agreement among the group that whatever and whoever they were before this war came to their doorsteps, the only thing that mattered now was surviving another day. But these pieces of their lives had ways of coming through anyway. And, of course, it was why she felt all the eyes in the room zero in on her when the word “Normandy” came through the radio. The fact that the famous Commander Shepard was her granddaughter was never spoken aloud, but understood all the same. And it put her in the unique and enviable position of knowing her loved one was alive and still in the fight. She sat up straighter in her chair, suddenly aching to hear every word of the report.

Love is Respect: Empowering Relationships with Virat Kohli and Sushmita Sen

Love is Respect: The Message of Equality and Empowerment

The latest Wrogn campaign, Love is Respect, starring Virat Kohli and Sushmita Sen, serves as a powerful reminder that love is incomplete without respect. Kohli, a sporting icon, speaks to the evolving behavior of men who increasingly treat women with equality, reminding us that relationships thrive when respect walks hand in hand with love.

This campaign transcends mere advertisements by addressing a deeply important societal issue. It highlights how simple gestures—like sharing responsibilities, being kind, and acknowledging your partner’s worth—are vital in showing respect. Virat Kohli himself reflects on his personal journey, remarking, “You can’t hurt a person and then expect love in return.” His statement resonates deeply, capturing the essence of mutual respect in relationships.

A post shared by Wrogn (@staywrogn)

With her grace, Sushmita Sen echoes this sentiment, stating, “Respect is love in action. Loving a woman is respecting her choices.”

Real-Life Examples of Respect and Love

Jackie Shroff and Ayesha Shroff have been an inspiring couple for decades. Their relationship has been based on mutual respect, with Jackie often crediting Ayesha for being his constant support system through thick and thin. Their partnership reflects a balance of admiration and respect, proving that the foundation of their love is trust and equality.

Similarly, Suniel Shetty and his wife Mana Shetty have shared a strong bond for over two decades, rooted in mutual respect. Suniel frequently expresses his gratitude for Mana’s role in his life, describing her as his rock. They’ve built an empire together, but more importantly, they’ve built a family on values of love and respect.

A globally admired couple, Barack and Michelle Obama, epitomize how mutual respect can uplift a relationship. Michelle often speaks about how Barack supported her through her career and personal growth, allowing both of them to flourish individually and as a couple. Their relationship highlights the importance of respect as the foundation of lasting love.

Another inspiring tale is of Indian cricketer MS Dhoni, who frequently acknowledges how his wife Sakshi’s support and wisdom have been crucial to his success. His open admiration for her is not just about love; it’s about respecting her contributions to his life both professionally and personally.

Take, for example, a story from Mumbai, where a husband and wife started a business together after losing their jobs during the pandemic. What made their partnership strong wasn't just love, but the deep respect they showed for each other's ideas and hard work. This respect was key to their success, as they navigated challenges together, proving that love truly thrives when respect is at its core.

Love and Respect – The Fairy Dust in any relationship!

Maya Angelou: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Michelle Obama: “When they go low, we go high.” This quote signifies that respect and love require us to rise above pettiness in relationships, staying grounded in compassion.

Why Does This Campaign Matter?

In a world where quick judgments and insensitivity often take over, campaigns like Love is Respect remind us that love and respect should form the foundation of all relationships. These values are not just to be admired but practiced in daily life. Whether it’s your partner, a friend, or a colleague, respect in action speaks louder than words.

Join the conversation, and let’s celebrate the Right Kind of Man, the ones who champion respect in every relationship. Together, we can inspire a wave of change, one respectful act at a time.

Let's drive positive change, one story at a time! Share yours now!

This one is also dear to me for entirely different reasons. When the Bohrok Va came out, Pahrak Va was the first of that specific set that I bought, and I fell IMMEDIATELY in love, and with all the memes circulating the internet involving Bonk in some silly context, endeared me to the project even more.

Now, that said, I won't lie by saying that his construction came without difficulties.

With great thanks to the bionicle community, 3D parts packs have been a veritable bounty of resources, with more coming out seemingly by the hour.

One of the pieces within the parts packs that I have access to is the kohli stick, as well as the puck piece that was used as the kohli ball. And if you look to the piece of equipment that the little man is wielding, you will immediately note that it is not the aforementioned kohli stick, but a table-scrap esque construction of one, same with the ball.

So you can imagine my anger and embarrassment when I FOUND the actual piece, after having spent all that time BUILDING ONE FROM SCRATCH.

Still, regardless of the expended emotions, Pahrak Va Kal remains one of my many favorites of these Hjönkles.

Little fluff piece under the cut.

Emerald eyes, scanning a horizonless sea of gems, whose facet intelligence matches but a fraction of your own. To wordless cause, you shepherd your carapaced flock across a stretch of foreign desert, whose sands are alien and unclean to those who heed your guidance.

Their wordless questions drown amidst the chittering of mouthless tongues, and pounding of restless hammers. "Guide us," they cry. "Give us task, so that by our task we may exist"

And so you conduct them; each gesture obeyed in your concerto construction. Pylons condense from strange sand into familiar rock. Hedrons now inscribed with scripture of a voiceless hand.

To clean it all, the land must have example of what is to be considered clean.

Timeless, and buffeting, like the stone of which you comprise.

Pahrak.

“these walls are unbreakable.” every day, the words from the nurse, lost in the unsettling haze of childhood, seep through his memories and into the present. “the storm king made it so, and the gods of the trashing winds and the deadly sea - they cannot get to ya, not to this day.” it was meant to be comforting. the world seemed to go up in air but storm’s end would stay. she’d tell tales of the storm king’s love, as if the stone around them was a statement to that and not to the fury that would make a man declare war on the gods and win. it always comes back to the anger of man. 

samwell understood it then. they whispered back to the nurse, once: the world is so obvious to me, i feel like i’ve done this all a million times before. these walls are unbreakable, she said. these walls are unescapable, they heard. all his life, sam’s pressed his hands, his forehead, to the cold walls and hoped to sense something. the whispers of forgotten magic, the curses of goneby gods, the anger of the kings. reality warped at the walls. those who walked through it never seemed to return right, as if it warned that their souls were not meant to handle the world. the air outside seemed to burn through his lungs. the doors were portals, opening to any world but reality, for that only existed inside the walls. their prison. their only real thing. it echoed with the booming voice of his father and he can still feel his words stuck between the rocks. he shall ask for them to be scrubbed clean again this week. 

sam looked at anger like an illness and kept it far away from his organism, but he spared no moralities for those who caught it. his lord father never paid him much mind - the quiet second son, perched on windows, people watching in the kitchens, organizing the most dull hunting expeditions possible. yet, samwell was always there. it was as if the air carried a warning, and before any fury could reach its climax, there was the child, always too tall for their demeanor. sammie never yells. sammie never fights. sammie never intervenes. he’s a bothersome wall between lord baratheon and the world, immovable like the stone around them. 

life was already a shaky concept, barely felt by the man who spent his days split between the surreal woods and the oppressive kitchens. a person of few friends and even fewer acquaintances. his life passed him by, despite his original role. all that made some semblance of sense was the simplicity of the chase, all emotion set aside for body and sound alone. it was the crossbow in his hands and the lawfulness that’s not man made. patience that can be merciful, purpose that can be deadly and unkind. a hunter’s justice. all that made sense was watching the cooks work and helping them carve a boar. at the end of any given day, the one thing anchoring him to the world was knowing that people around him would go to bed with meat and bread in their stomachs. that was how he’d spend his life, showing care. 

gude’s passing was a powerful shaking of the walls. the entire world ( which was, really, mostly his family ) seemed to crumble before his eyes and, like always, sammie did nothing. he was frozen in the knowledge that he would not be a wall and a hunter forever. his father called it immediately, how unfit he was. perhaps that’s why he spent the following decade thorn between pretending samwell did not exist, and trying to awaken something in them. to shake out the fury or strength. neither seemed to work. 

the cursed family heirloom seemed to make the walls thicker. it’s a role, and it isn’t instinctual. it is a broken bone healed wrong, the middle forever soft. just because he hopes to do right by the role, doesn’t mean it is his. there is something they could call samwell, but it is outweighed by the role, and there’s a comfort in that, despite it all. lord baratheon can’t crack, can’t cry or rage or leave. sammie, if he must, can shield himself somewhere within to do all that. the role takes over and they are solid rock. 

he loves like a duty too. unconditional and relentless, despite all injury and reason. when his lord father dies, sam finds no forgiveness to be given, but mourns him all the same. he may have learned little in the previous decade, but he spent it loving and caring for the people around him, regardless. they take the news of the financial destitution of house baratheon like they took all fury: quiet and ready. lord baratheon may pace the halls all night and may pretend to not hear the whispers about their unfitness for the role, but he is planning. in his unsteady hands, he holds many lines. the need for gold, the welfare of their people, the state of his family, and eyes pointed north, to the crownlands.

BIOGRAPHY

claudius was descended from roman generals who still lived in the area and he was a warlord who wanted to maintain control over the city he was born in, venice. he met aisha, a beautiful woman who landed on the city's ports and quickly got the attention of the local population- including claudius, who knew he needed to have her to himself. their romance quickly picked up and she would give him four sons.

little did claudius know was that his wife and sons were all djinn. as their oldest son, lucretius, began to develop his own gifts she was forced to confess the truth. claudius saw this as a net positive and used her gifts to help him maintain control of the city and its ports. as he grew more powerful and ruled over venice, his relationship with aisha began to wain.

he'd spend less time with her or their sons and soon began to resent them. he didn't like aisha trying to teach them about her culture and where she came from. when lucretius was sixteen years old, aisha caught claudius in bed with one of his hand maidens and was furious. she decided to punish her husband by making him hallucinate all sorts of things until he was deemed mad by his own guards and locked away in a dungeon.

this was when lucretius began his rule over the city with his mother for the next decade, though whispers began to spread that they were witches who poisoned claudius and explained why aisha hadn't aged in nearly thirty years. lucretius and his family fled the city in the night, settign their home on fire before they took a ship and headed out east.

lucretius spent some time in constantinople where he was a loyal advisor to the emperor at the time and even his lover. the other advisors swore lucretius was poisoning the emperor and attempted to imprison him, though he always slipped through their fingers. he'd return to the city years later when the emperor was on his death bed to say his final goodbye.

he spent the next several centuries traveling across the middle east and asia, discovering more of his own gifts and becoming stronger. him and his brothers would go their own ways around this time, one brother ended up in russia while another brother ended up india and another stayed in egypt with lucretius for some time.

around the 15th century, lucretius had made connections with the ottoman empire. he was a lover to the sultan and although he encouraged peace with the byzantinians, the sultan refused. thanks to his extensive knowledge of constantinople and how it was built, he helped his lover invade and take it over. like his mother, lucretius would eventually feel used by this lover who slowly lost interest in the djinn once he got what he wanted. lucretius would make the sultan begin to hallucinate and be deemed to mad to rule, with one of his closest generals killing the guard.

once again lucretius spent the next few centuries never staying anywhere for too long and coming to truly resent humanity, who he felt only cared about him for his gifts. he'd spend some time back on the italian peninsula during the peak of the renaissance, becoming the muse for a handful of artists who would gain notority with time.

the djinn was an advisor for the tudor dynasty briefly and some have sworn they saw him in france during their revolution, even believing he may have been one of the reasons to cause the madness but he swears he was back in india at this time.

lucretius would end up in the new world, wondering if he'd ever find somewhere he could settle down at. this was when he found what would one day be alexandria, a beacon for the supernatural and where he met other djinn like himself along with creatures he had never known existed.

building various businesses in town, including a popular nightclub that has gained a notorious reputation, lucretius isn't the most approachable or heartwarming and tends to keep to himself unless you have something he wants.

Check Out Which Player Got the Most Runs In World Cup

World Cups are tough to play as there is added pressure of the tournament and competing with different teams simultaneously makes it even more daunting. Therefore, scoring huge runs in these contests makes it a significant achievement for the player, highlighting his batting prowess and capability to perform under duress. Moreover, the sport now has two World Cups: the T20 World Cup and the ODI World Cup. Unlike the T20 World Cup, which is held every two years, the ODI World Cup is held every four years. In the ODI cricket World Cup, Sachin Tendulkar has the record for most runs, and in the T20 World Cup, Virat Kohli holds the record for most runs. Let’s review all the players who have scored the most runs in World Cups.

Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar of India is referred to as the "God of Cricket," and for all the right reasons. He leads the World Cup in runs scored as well as in Test and One-Day International cricket. Tendulkar set a number of cricket records, including the record for the most international cricket hundreds, which remain unbreakable. His record for most runs in worldcup is also unbreakable. In 44 innings over the course of two decades, from 1992 to 2011, Sachin Tendulkar scored 2278 runs. He has scored as much as 152 runs.

Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli has been a rock of consistency for the Indian cricket team, carrying on his idol's legacy. With five hundreds and twelve half-centuries among his 1795 runs at an average of 59.83 in 37 World Cup games, Kohli has established himself as one of the game's contemporary greats. During the recent 2023 ODI World Cup in India, Kohli scored 765 runs and broke Sachin's record for the most runs in a single tournament. In the upcoming matches against Australia, he is touted to be India’s ace in the series.

Ricky Ponting

Another cricket legend who has made it to this list is Ricky Ponting. He is regarded as one of cricket's most successful captains, having guided Australia to two World Cup victories in a row in 2003 and 2007. Australia rose to prominence as the world's most formidable cricket team under his captaincy. But Ponting, the ICC World Cup's third-highest run-scorer, was a skilled batter himself. With a top score of 140 not out, Ponting amassed 1743 runs in 42 innings. Besides, he has played in five world cups and has guided the Australian side to the best of his abilities in all of them.

Rohit Sharma

Rohit Sharma is an essential part of India's batting order because of his grace and ability to turn beginnings into significant cricket scores. Sharma's influence on the World Cup stage is undeniable, as he amassed 1575 runs at an incredible average of 60.57 in 28 World Cup matches, including seven hundreds.

Kumar Sangakkara

A vital member of Sri Lanka's World Cup team and a revered figure in the cricketing world, Kumar Sangakkara was a great craftsman at the crease. Sangakkara was a dangerous opponent because of his ability to anchor the innings and accelerate when necessary. He amassed 1532 runs at an average of 56.74 in 37 games.

[ad_1] India on the brink of another special win on Australian soil. India once again stamped their authority on the proceedings with an emphatic display of batting, declaring their innings at a commanding 487/6. At the heart of this performance was the young Yashasvi Jaiswal, whose composed and elegant 161 once again proved why he is rated so highly, while the ever-reliable Virat Kohli added to Australia’s woes with a masterful 100*. The day worsened for the hosts as they were rocked by the loss of three wickets, with just 12 runs on the board by the end of day 3. Australia need 522 runs to win, while India require just seven wickets to go 1-0 up in the five-match series. Having already taken a substantial lead of over 200 runs, all eyes were on how India would approach Day 3. Well, the approach was more or less the same from the openers, as they didn’t try anything fancy. The pair provided a steady start, with Jaiswal reaching his fourth Test century, his first on Australian soil. The 201-run opening stand was brought to an end by Mitchell Starc, who dismissed KL Rahul for 77. Having reached his ton, Jaiswal seemed to lose a bit of composure, but he continued to ride his luck. Coming in at number three, Devdutt Padikkal offered a better account of himself in the middle during the second innings, and together with Jaiswal, he formed a 74-run stand for the second wicket.  With the lead growing, Pat Cummins opted for an in-and-out field. After reaching three figures, Jaiswal played with more freedom, finding boundaries at will while also rotating the strike well. India went into lunch having lost just one wicket. However, things changed post-lunch. The second session began with the early dismissal of Padikkal. Jaiswal, full of energy, reached 150 for the fourth time in his Test career within the first half-hour of the session.   Just before the drinks break, Jaiswal played a short and wide delivery straight to Smith at point, ending his remarkable innings, with Kohli applauding as the young batter walked off.   Nathan Lyon’s introduction saw immediate results, as he dismissed Rishabh Pant with his first delivery after the break. The next over brought another blow for India, with Cummins trapping Jurel in front, leaving India reeling at 3 wickets for just 8 runs in 3 overs. Despite the collapse, Kohli remained unfazed, standing firm at the crease. As the pitch began to misbehave, Kohli took responsibility for holding one end while allowing the younger players to take risks. True to form, he focused on rotating the strike and capitalising on any loose balls.   Cummins bowled a brilliant spell after tea, challenging Kohli with a few close calls but failing to get him out. Lyon also came close, finding a gap between bat and pad, but the ball narrowly missed the leg-stump—Kohli had his moments of fortune. While all eyes were on Kohli, Washington Sundar quietly played his role at the other end, contributing 29 in a vital 89-run partnership.  Nitish Kumar Reddy came in and batted with intent to score quick runs and he did that pretty successfully as India eyed declaration. Since the message of declaration came through, Kohli shifted gears and raced to his 30th century. Compared to yesterday, the Australian bowlers fared better today, with the pitch’s variable bounce and turn also helping their efforts. However, their fielding was poor, with both the fielders and Alex Carey making errors. There were two close calls when Australia nearly dismissed Jaiswal: first, a mix-up between him and Rahul, but Cummins failed to hit the stumps at the bowling end, despite Jaiswal giving up on the run. The second instance came in the 91st over when Jaiswal gloved one down the leg side, but Carey couldn’t hang on to the catch.

Diamond jubilee lady hits the BULLSEYE 🙂

Just as my mom Smt. Sanjeevini Rao turns 75 tomorrow ,here are 7 special moments which makes me feel proud of her. I call her The Iron Lady for these very special qualities. A gritty , focused and tough lady had a very special 70 years. Along with these special achievements, her biggest victory is how she battled Lymphoma Cancer. She braved through 6 full chemo treatment to fight the cancer. Having will power, dedication and focus to get through cancer with a positive attitude is not everyone's cup of tea. Hat's off mom. Keep rocking!!!Just as photo describes, she has hit BULLSEYE in this aspect .

Moment 1 : Period 1984. Place Bhadravathi. Dad was in transferable job as he had moved to marketing role. We got transferred from Bangalore to Bhadravathi. Me and Seema joined St Charles school. Mom and Dad were curious to see how we would fare in school considering change of school is not always easy to adapt. I was in 2nd standard and Seema in 5th standard. St Charles was a very competitive school with loads of bright students. In mid term exams, we did well. Results were to be announced after festival holiday break. Mom had put in a great effort to get me accustomed to new syllabus and new school. St Charles had a tradition of announcing top 3 ranks of each class in morning assembly. This was to encourage the students. I was literally chatting my friend Ashit during the assembly when all of a sudden something shocking happened. They announced my name for 2nd rank. In our class, we had 2 students by my name. They had not announced initials. They again announced my name with Boloor tag to it. I was shocked more than surprised. My hands were almost trembling when I ran towards the stage. I had shock expression in my face even when I received marks card from principal. Seema also came 2nd in class in that exams. Mom was thrilled . Dad was even more as he felt a bit guilty of being transferred to Bhadravathi. He literally picked me and threw into the air. My head almost touched the roof the hall in the house. Well, fun just started here. Seema was always a student who would excel consistently. I was like Ravi Shastri, happy in hitting a few sixes and then get out of form �� In Nov exams, my rank dipped to 10th and in Dec exams to 23rd. During this period, my aunt Sharath was in Bhadravathi. As soon as I showed my marks card to mom, lecture started as expected from mom. I expected that as her oratory skills was like legendary Indira Gandhi. Hard hitting words with spot on points. I had my face covered in hands as I didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. She made a comment “ Your marks has fallen off the mountain, from the peak to the bottom. In next exam, I guess you would dig the ground and go further down !!”. Sharath aunty felt bad and tried to calm mom. I started getting a bit nervous. Things calmed post that. The way she expressed her opinion, I know she was more hurt that I scored less marks. Mom then didn’t say a thing for a week. She then prepared a daily time table of what to read. Seema on the other hand had secured first rank in both the exams. Mom never pressurized me by comparing to Seema. She knew both are of different mould. In today’s sporting world, She was Virat Kohli and I was a mere Rishab Pant with a few sixes here and there. I put in loads of effort post that. I managed to get 5th rank in final exams. This was my first face off with mom’s anger. I can relate to this anger even now. I am a bit tempered. Beneath anger, I knew she wanted me to do the best.

Moment 2 : A couple of years later, mom felt the need to work as it would improve the financial state of the house. She was always fond of teaching. She had done B.Sc in Maths and was even a rank holder. She decided to pursue B.Ed which would open up teacher roles for her. Unfortunately, there was no college in Bhadravathi which had this course. She enrolled into a college in Shimoga which was about 1 hour drive from Bhadravathi those days. So at the age of 38, she decided to do B.ED which was remarkable since she had to do on top of normal household work. She would get up at 5 AM, get household work done, then leave to Shimoga at 7 AM. She would return by 5 PM. She would have some assignments too. She would help me in my homework as well. This routine would go for 1 full year. It needed a lot of guts and determination to do this. By the time, she completed her B.Ed, dad came to home with news of being transferred again. Mom had the expression in her face which would say “ When one challenge is completed, other follows like a shadow!!”. We moved to Bangalore again !!!.

Moment 3 : Period 1988 to 1990. This was a phase we led a rapid life. I was super happy as our house was right in front of massive APS college ground. Mom happen to be teacher of the same school where Seema studied. Infact, she was Maths teacher of Seema for 9th and 10th standard. I was busy playing. The moment I return from school, I would rush to the ground. Mom and Seema would return from school together. This was period where Seema would win loads of awards. Mom was super proud of her. She won 2nd price in Hindi debate competition for whole of Karnataka which was splendid achievement. She won loads of awards in school competitions too. 2 moments brought maximum happiness to Mom during this phase. One was Seema winning Hindi debate competition and another was me winning 3rd prize in science exhibition. I enrolled my name at the last moment and didn’t have any idea what to present. Mom gave the idea of liquids getting heated faster than solid. Example was simple. Have a stand to place a cardboard box. Fill the box with water. Place a candle under the box with enough distance between them. Its observed that water catches fire faster than cardboard box. Mom gave me explanation points around it too which revolved around some molecular theory. I memorized it well as I had a knack of doing it. Judges were some college professors. 70 students had participated in it. Judges heard each student’s explanation. There were some interesting ones too like volcanic effect by my classmate Niranjan. I explained my part well. My only worry was that I had just 2 cardboard boxes. I had to use it smartly. I had to start the experiment just a few minutes before judges came to my seat. I did that well. Judges were impressed. I felt relieved. Post lunch, one of the teachers came and made 2 announcements. One was that parents and teachers would come around to see the displays between 3-5 PM IST. 2nd was the 3 winners. I was shocked more than surprised when they announced my name as 3rd place winner. It made my day. Mom couldn’t come to watch my experiment since she would return from school only 430 PM. I had a bigger issue in hand. I didn’t have any cardboard box left. I went around sweet shop near my house. He spared me 4 old boxes without charging a penny. We would constantly buy veg puff there. So he knew me well. Post 5 PM, I ran to house to announce my results. Mom was super happy. She couldn’t control her wide smile. She and Seema came for prize distribution later too. Actor Srinath was the chief guest that year. It was cool to receive the prize from him. Mom made science and Maths simple for me which helped a great deal in later years to come.

Moment 4 : In 1990, we got transferred again. This time to Madras. It took ages to get settled in the TN capital. I used to call it MAAADDDras with specific emphasis on Mad. I made good friends though but life style was so different. In school too, focus was all on studies. In the school I studied, there was no sports period as well. That’s when we as a family got really close. We literally became friends for each other. To top the pain, our TV had gone to maker’s factory for insurance claim. For 6 months we didn’t have TV. I literally followed 1990 world cup soccer on news paper only. Due to this, we had loads of time though. We used to go for long walks post dinner. We used to live in Ashoknagar which was really a good place. Mom got her job in school pretty fast. She directly approached principal of Jawahar Vidyalaya. They had a post open at that time. Her career really picked up from there. In initial years of tough life in Chennai, mom held us together. This was very critical since we led next 10 years of life in Madras.

Moment 5 : I had a crazy way of studying for my exams. I liked to read while walking. I walked around the house as if it is a temple. This is not just it. I had to have TV on with some sports channel on. I would constantly focus on scores as and when I come in front of TV. When I study, others don’t get to watch TV !! . Mom somehow managed to bear my crazy style of studying. The pace at which I would walk would increase as and when I get further in studies. Infact, I even studied Maths like this. I studied Maths also mentally rather than practicing it. During engineering days, books would get heavy. So I would tear books into 3-4 parts !!! Any other mother would lock their kid in a room and make them study if they study in such a idiotic way. She always smiled when I walked with an expression “ You are one unique specimen !!! “ . She kept saying to his students who came to tuition though that this is exactly NOT the way to study !!! 😊 . What she couldn’t say to me she said to her students. Speaking of making your point in a unique way !!

Moment 6 : I had met with a major accident 2 months before my XII board exams. I was bed ridden for almost 2-3 weeks. It was critical phase for XII as all revision exams and tuitions was scheduled during that phase. Any other parent would have panicked. But mom being mom, she just told me to give it all once I am fine. She did sound a bit nervous though. Mom and dad didn’t want to make me nervous though. Once I recovered, I just had a little more 4 weeks left for exams to start. I decided not to go final revision as well as that would reduce time for preparation for final exams. Though it was a bold move, mom felt that would be the best as well. I prepared a strict timetable. In X board exams even though I did well, I just managed to score 80% marks. Any such dip would make dad’s life difficult as management engineer quota was expensive. I just put my mind out of all this and just focused on studies. I still watched TV and still walked around the house though !!!. I did reasonably well in exams. When the day came for the marks to come, mom decided to stay back home and took off from school. She was a bit nervous but didn’t show it. My marks was like Bulls eye for engineering seat. I got 96.5% in PCM which mattered. I just got 85% in rest. But that was enough. Infact, I was topper in the class in PCM% which was a shocker for me. Had mom not given the freedom to study the way I did, I would not have fared so well. It mattered a lot as management quota seat would cost 40-50K per year but free seat would just cost 6.5K per year. I managed to get the later. Dad was so thrilled that he too came back from office earlier than scheduled with a box of sweets. I finally had a moment which made mom and dad proud and I was proud of it !!!

Moment 7 : Well, this has got to be Singapore trip . Mom, dad, Seema and Sanjay came to Singapore when I was posted there for an onsite assignment. We really had good time there. Mom had a wish to visit a foreign country and she was smiling all through the trip.

Cheers to Mom for her “ Never say die “ spirit. Though there were few moments where our thoughts didn’t match , it was negligible when compared to the respect we have for each other. Mom rocks at 75 !!! Many cheers to the IRON Lady who turns 75 tomorrow !!!!

Grenada

Original blog post on - 14th April 2013

The last of the West Indies.

It was only 45 nautical miles from Tobago Cays to Grenada and with the favourable wind behind us for most of the way we once again had to slow down sailing with reefed headsail only to ensure we reached there at the break of dawn rather than having to anchor in the dark if we had travelled there with full sails.

Once again it was a reasonably flat and non rolly bay for our anchorage that was amongst a few other yachts just outside the main commercial harbour in 5 metres of water. Facing the bow was a huge volcanic rock and a beach that looked like it had volcanic sand (almost black) gone was the beautiful white sand from the beaches on Tobago Cays.

We could see the working harbour about one kilometre away on the left hand side and we knew about the Port Louis Marina on the right hand side that existed beyond the rock formation based on the guide books and the navigational program we were using. This is where a few super yachts as well as many other cruising yachts similar to ours were berthed.

After breakfast six of us got into the dinghy to head to Port Louis Marina. Colin stayed on the boat to catch up on some much needed sleep having done the graveyard shift from 12am to 2pm.

Despite some confusing and wrong information given to us, once at the marina we were easily able to locate the customs and immigration office to complete our entry requirements into Grenada. Once again in a cricket loving country, the immigration officer, young Sheldon was eager to talk about cricket. As the skipper Patrick was required for signing the documents but as per previous ports I completed the forms seeing I had made myself his personal assistant attending to all ship paperwork. (Just to inform you Hestia is not officially a yacht or a vessel or even a boat but a "ship" registered with the Australian registrar of ships via our international registration of the yacht and not just a NSW registration since it has now been transferred off the French registry of marine vessels). With both Patrick & I present there, Sheldon started his conversation with a loaded question "so you are from India and he is from Australia, so how did the household cope when India beat Australia 4-Nil in the recent test series?" Neither of us knew about this test series but we played along anyway. Patrick pleaded that he did not understand cricket (tongue in cheek) and I laughed. Sheldon launched on his cricket expertise about how the young Indian team with the likes of Kohli and Avinaash was much better than the old Australian team that needed some new blood and revamp. This while there were 4 other skippers waiting outside the office in the heat to get their clearance!

After a pleasurable conversation and a lot of time in this 2 person sized office we departed as now having officially arrived in Grenada.

It was our first day there but as always Patrick and I had a list of tasks to achieve including buying some more groceries and fresh fruit. One of the main reasons for coming to Grenada was in a slim hope that we may be able to find another LPG gas bottle for the galley that we had not been able to secure in St Maarten or elsewhere along the way.

Mind you this was on a Thursday (day) before Good Friday. The shops would be closed the next day and although we might be able to get things on Saturday we were planning on leaving Saturday evening latest.

It was a day of mixed success, we managed to walk from Port Louis Marina to the town. On the way there we found a decent supermarket, no luck with the gas bottles and a market where we bought lots of fresh fruit and vegetables including some local fruit for the crew to taste.

After a quick break for some young coconut water, the Indian way, we headed back and managed to get a ride in the local transport buses at $1 (Eastern Caribbean) per person. This was a 17 person mini-bus that had about 25 passengers and two crew (driver and ticket seller) cramped in it like a can of sardines....including the smell. Patrick was sitting in the single passenger seat in the front of the bus when a very oversized lady put her arm out to get a lift. I looked in the back and it was crammed already and wondered where this person was going to fit. The bus conductor opened Patrick's door and in moved this giant of a lady pushing Patrick almost onto the lap of the driver and hindering him from using the gears. It was an interesting experience to say the least.

We then got off at the Supermarket and did a big shop, the tough bit was carrying it back to the marina where we had the other crew waiting for us with the dinghy.

We then found a local baker in the Marina complex, an elderly couple from South Africa that reminded you of elderly couples that you read in a fairy tales, hardworking people, proud of their product leading a simple but complete life spreading joy where they can.

We ordered 24 Hot Cross Buns to be picked up in the late afternoon that we could enjoy on Good Friday and hopefully over the Easter Weekend.

Back on the boat, Colin caught trevally was devoured for lunch and we headed back to the marina to get the laundry done and pick up the hot cross buns. Unfortunately there was no coin laundry at this marina and so a decision was made to go by dinghy to the yacht club across the pier after picking up the buns to source options for both laundry and wifi facilities.

The yacht club (RGYC) reminded me of the CYC back in Mumbai a colonial style building with traces of bygone glory and fabulous location and views. Dusty flags from other yacht clubs around the world hung in lines from the ceiling. Unfortunately we were too late for laundry but we were assured that there would be someone there first thing tomorrow if we returned in the morning. While Georges accessed internet he bought me a gin & tonic. Phil, Sibylle and Colin went looking for some tourist information in the meanwhile.

I noticed an interesting and reasonably priced menu here and a mental decision was made to bring the crew back for an Easter treat for dinner that night.

Although the menu for dinner did not match the menu on the board seen earlier in the day, it turned out to be a pleasant evening for all a we sat on the yacht club terrace and enjoyed the Caribbean meal with either fish or chicken options. We had a few drinks and finishing it all with some local ice cream.

Good Friday was a day for seeing the island with almost all official business closed. We had booked a taxi for 5 of us for a 6 hour tour from 10am. The taxi and the rate had been confirmed the previous night via email at US$20 person, total $100 for a 6 hour job. The fellow had been happy to accept our business but seemed disgruntled when he picked us up in the morning, partly because we were late and partly because he had realised that a cruise liner with its wealthy passengers had arrived in the morning and he could have made 50% more money on the same tour. Sadly this set the tone of the tour and although we saw some interesting areas on the day and managed a beautiful walk to Concord falls as a guide he provided us with no commentary on the area and all the conversation revolved around money and time. Not enjoyable at all.

Our most interesting visit for the day was a moderate grade bush walk to the Seven Sisters Falls of which we only saw the Concord Falls. The water fall was amazing or so Patrick tells me but I refused to jump in the water with over 50 local teenagers hosting a barbecue and a day of get-together to meet the local girls. the kids were brave to say the least as they climbed the slippery rocks and got to the top of the falls about 18 meters high and jumped into it.

I found it a bit intimidating to strip to my bathers with all the local boys scanning the foreigners. Just as we were leaving a group of American teenagers arrived with their local tour guides and jumped onto the pool. They were about 10 of them and I wished they had arrived earlier.

Also being a Good Friday we missed out on the rum distillery and nutmeg factory which were both closed due to public holiday.

We viewed a lake created by a meteoroid that had unique eco-system.

We finally managed to buy a second hand 10 pound fibreglass gas bottle from one of the local convenience stores at the marina that was almost full of gas and they accepted our offer that represented a good discount off the new price. So whilst not the size we originally wanted it was at least enough gas to get us to Panama where hopefully we will be able to purchase a larger gas container especially for the big passage from Galapagos to the Marquesas in French Polenesia some 6,000 kilometres away that we plan to sail in under 3 weeks. This is one of, if not the longest passage in world cruising.

Back at the boat Patrick swam 400 metres to the beach with the black sand and volcanic rocks jutting out from the sea floor. Colin was kind enough to ferry me in the dinghy to the shore to meet up with the others. This beach was full of local kids playing cricket, football and practicing karate or some sort of martial arts. Nick and Georges swam there as well. It was a lovely evening with a beautiful sunset.

Dinner was pasta (ghackets und hoerndli mit oephelmues) i.e. minced beef with horn shaped pasta and apple sauce by the Swiss couple. The crew rating was "delicious!". I had the vegetarian version and it very good too. We finished off the meal with some Swiss chocolate.

It was a pleasant break in Grenada and we had an early night in preparation of the early start for one of the tough legs anticipated. We were heading for Bonaire around 420 nm away the next day with anticipated 20-25 knots wind conditions according to the grid file Patrick downloaded from his Maxsea navigation software.

Alkaline Water: The New Health Trend Sweeping Across India

In the bustling metropolis of Mumbai, where the old-world charm seamlessly blends with the fast-paced modern lifestyle, a new health trend is making waves among the city’s health-conscious denizens. It’s a trend that’s not confined to the glittering gyms of South Mumbai or the posh cafes of Bandra but has found its way into the homes and hearts of people across the nation. This trend is alkaline water, and it’s more than just a fad—it’s a lifestyle choice that’s here to stay.

The story of alkaline water in India is one of serendipity and science. It began with whispers in the corridors of Bollywood studios and cricket fields, where celebrities like Aamir Khan, Deepika Padukone, Malaika Arora Khan and Virat Kohli were seen hydrating with bottles of water that were said to be more than just H2O. It was alkaline water—water with a higher pH level, touted for its health benefits and its ability to neutralize the body’s acidity.

As the trend caught on, more and more Indians began to explore the world of alkaline water. But as they did, a crucial question arose: What exactly is alkaline water, and are all alkaline waters the same?

The Alkaline Water Phenomenon

Alkaline water has become a buzzword in health circles across India, touted for its ability to balance the body’s pH and offer a host of health benefits. But as this trend gains momentum, it’s essential to distinguish between naturally alkaline water and ionized alkaline water—two very different products often mistaken as one.

Naturally Alkaline Water: A Gift from Nature

Naturally alkaline water comes from springs where it acquires minerals from rocks, such as calcium and magnesium, which naturally increase its pH level. This process can take centuries, ensuring the water is imbued with the earth’s goodness. The result is a type of water that not only quenches thirst but also replenishes essential minerals.

Ionized Alkaline Water: A Modern Invention

In contrast, ionized alkaline water is created using a mechanical process called electrolysis, which artificially increases the pH level of regular water. While this process can produce water with a high pH, it doesn’t provide the same natural mineralization that occurs in naturally alkaline water.

The Health Benefits of Going Natural

When it comes to health, naturally alkaline mineral water is the superior choice. Its mineral content is not only beneficial for hydration but also plays a role in maintaining bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Additionally, the antioxidants found in naturally alkaline water can help combat oxidative stress, which is linked to a range of chronic diseases. Natural minerals in water are essential for maintaining optimal health. The bioavailability of these minerals, which refers to the proportion that is actually absorbed and utilized by the body, is significantly higher when they come from water sources. This is because water-soluble minerals are more easily assimilated into the bloodstream. Consuming mineral-rich water supports a variety of bodily functions. Calcium and magnesium, for instance, contribute to bone strength and cardiovascular health. Potassium aids in muscle function and electrolyte balance, while zinc plays a critical role in immune response and wound healing.

The natural absorption process of minerals from water is gentle on the digestive system, making it an ideal way to replenish essential nutrients. Moreover, the presence of minerals in water can enhance hydration, as they help maintain the balance of fluids within the body. Incorporating natural mineral water into one’s diet is a simple yet effective strategy to boost overall wellness. It ensures a steady supply of key nutrients that are readily available for the body’s needs, promoting long-term health and vitality.

The Downside of Ionization

The ionization process can lead to water rejection during bottling, as the altered structure of the water can affect its purity and taste. Moreover, the health claims associated with ionized alkaline water are often not supported by scientific evidence, making it a less desirable option for those seeking genuine health benefits. Moreover before Ionization, the water is often demineralised using RO to remove impurities. In the quest for optimal health, many have turned to demineralized and ionized alkaline water. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) raises concerns about the long-term consumption of such water, particularly demineralized reverse osmosis (RO) water, due to potential health risks.Mineral Deficiency Dangers Demineralized water, including that processed by RO systems, is stripped of vital minerals like calcium and magnesium. These elements play a crucial role in our health, supporting bone strength and various bodily functions. Regular intake of water devoid of these minerals can lead to deficiencies, with potential impacts on overall wellness and nutrition.

Cardiovascular Concerns: The WHO has linked low-mineral water consumption to a heightened risk of cardiovascular disease. The lack of essential minerals can disrupt the body’s mineral and water balance, affecting heart health and organ function.

Alkaline Water’s Alkalosis Risk: While ionized alkaline water is often marketed for health benefits, excessive use can cause alkalosis, a condition where the body’s pH is overly alkaline. Symptoms can include gastrointestinal issues and a decrease in natural stomach acidity, which is essential for digestion.

Kidney Health Implications: For those with existing kidney conditions, ionized alkaline water may exacerbate issues due to its pH imbalance. It’s crucial for individuals with renal concerns to consult healthcare professionals before altering their water intake.

The WHO advises caution when it comes to the regular use of demineralized and ionized alkaline water. The absence of critical minerals and the potential for pH-related health issues underscore the importance of choosing water sources wisely for long-term health and vitality.

Which is the best naturally alkaline water in India?

In a market where ionized alkaline water is becoming increasingly common, Aava naturally alkaline mineral water emerges as a beacon of natural purity. As one of India’s first and only naturally alkaline mineral water brands, Aava natural mineral water has set itself apart by offering water that is not just alkaline but is also rich in natural minerals. Originating from the ancient Aravalli Hills, Aava water’s naturally alkaline pH8 is a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality and health.

Conclusion: Embrace the Natural Choice

As the alkaline water trend continues to gain momentum in India, it’s important for consumers to make informed choices. By choosing naturally alkaline mineral water, you’re not just following a trend; you’re making a conscious decision to invest in your health and well-being.

So, as you contemplate adding alkaline water to your wellness routine, consider this: Are you ready to experience the natural difference that’s sweeping across India?
