Why do we have memories? What memories stay with us? What shapes do the memories take? Why do the same event is remembered differently by different people? Based on my understanding, I have tried to find answers to some of these questions. You may look at these from your perspective.

The idea was sparked by a radio programme discussing songs in the background and how they were considered unimportant until someone really wove them into the storyline, and they were sung by a known voice. In my life, I have tried to look at the role played by the background, bringing it to the foreground. My take is here!

Habits make a person, what he or she is. This week, I have thought about the subject and given my two bits on the basis of my experiences. I eat very fast, and that habit stems from my college days, when I was always in a hurry due to numerous avoidable reasons. So here is my exploration of habits.

Relationships are also like living beings. They are organic in nature, according to my understanding and that is why they take birth, grow and subsequently die. Atleast for mortals like me. I have tried to think about their ending. Let us see how my thought process works.

At one time or another, all of us have either indulged in this or faced it. I will deliberately not use the phrase “suffered the effects,” since those who indulge in “baat ko sahee karnaa” are sometimes very close to us and mean well most of the time. But sometimes, it does hurt and I have looked at this aspect and some thoughts on the subject.

When it comes to writing letters and receiving letters, I stand miles ahead of many of those whom I know closely. I remember, my father used to ask us to read the letters which one of his friends used to write to him on a postcard, just to learn english writing skills. He, Shri Shabbir Ahmad was perhaps the only person whom he considered a better letter writer. So a few tales!
