The Invitation

The Invitation

“It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon… I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals, or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain mine or your own without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.” – Oriah Mountain Dreamer , The Invitation

Birding Weekend: #WordlessWednesday #WednesdayWisdom

    “Sometimes I think that the point of birdwatching is not the actual seeing of the birds, but the cultivation of patience. Of course, each time we set out, there’s a certain amount of expectation we’ll see something, maybe even a species we’ve never seen before, and that it will fill us with light. But even if we don’t see anything remarkable – and sometimes that happens – we come home filled with light anyway.” ― Lynn Thomson, Birding…

Wilderness and Lockdown Skies – Part African Adventures: #WordlessWednesday

                          Wilderness and Lockdown Skies – Part African Adventures   I re-visited Africa; East Africa to be precise while living a lockdown life. My city skies these days remind me of the skies in the African wilderness. A pure shade of azure and the air as crisp and clean as it could ever be. These are a few vignettes from Serengeti National Park, when we were there last…

Solo Sunsets: #WordlessWednesday

SOLO SUNSETS   I need to share the back story of this #WordlessWednesday post by getting wordy. 🙂 And I would not have it any other way, so pardon me. This picture has a very special place in my heart, as it  was shot on my first solo trip. On my first evening in Goa, I hopped across to Thalassa, the café on the hillock of the Vagator beach; to watch that surreal sunset many had spoken about. I know…

  “I love opal sunsets. Especially the ones that come, right after a heavy downpour,” smiled Samantha gazing across the horizon. The sky embellished with dark-amber clouds, looked gorgeous. Vihaan and she were out on their second date. A perfect setting to get some romance started.

O is for Opal Sunsets and Ochre Sunrise Timeless Classics, Around the Earth till infinity I LOVE sunsets and sunrises. Well who doesn’t? They leave me spell-bound, contemplative and grateful.

Though they come and go each day, yes that too as per routine; but each sunset and sunrise is distinctively different from the other. Every time I lay my eyes on the transiting colours of…
