Memorable 2006


I always believe that something started well will end well too! I wanted 2006 to start off in a serene, quiet atmosphere. We made it possible..2006 dawned for us at Anza Borrego desert State Park camground. It was special!
Lots of camping trips followed: Morro Bay, Oregon coast, couple of SF trips, Lassen National Park, Catalina Island & of course, the highlight- a week trip to Hawaii!
I started writing since May 2006- still on with my travelblog & blog.
Pursuing my interests in photography;
Accomplished my first backpacking trip to Grand Canyon(thanks to my hubby) & worked my way out in a kayak in the Pacific Ocean!

Life was very patient with me in teaching its lessons.

Met Swamiji in person for the 1st time & got the privilege in joining him for a hike;
Successfully completed my Tai Chi course &
got my yellow belt in Karate(my childhood dream), in the process learnt a lot of things.
Trying to leave my anger behind & see the positive side of life.
Becoming a lot more broad minded than I used to be.

Turned a lot of strangers into friends. Got in touch with a bunch of friends from school(courtesy Orkut!)
Hope to join a course in Piano & Yoga in the year to come!

A couple of my friends & family became moms, including my co-sister! May they be surrounded by abundance!

I'd never believed in New Year resolutions ever since I was a child; I continue doing everything I like & take every day as it comes living one day at a time.

God bless amma, my hubby, my extended family & the whole world with good health & happiness.

We hope to start 2007 with a new experience again-backpacking in a lonely island, watching the fireworks. Let the New Year sunshine bring lots of hope & happiness to everyone.

Blessed New Year 2007!

Isha Yoga

Though I knew it, one of our family brought it to light that it has been a long time I posted here. I'd love to say that the last few weeks were pretty hectic & I just couldn't find time to write something here. Not so! The last few weeks have been totally different. I've had the time to do so many things that were in my "to do" list for a long time. Thanks to better management of time & sleep. The secret: a seven day yoga program. A very close friend forced me to join this course. I was hesitant & skeptical. I was not sure I was up for the 30 min twice a day commitment(40 days). I have a toddler & I really toggle between her & other work at home already. Plus what big change would come? But somehow, I registered for this class. Since I read somewhere that they give discount for married couples, I brought G in too(though the main reason would be to make sure I get through the 40 days). From the day I registered till the 1st day at class, this...

Where the tigers dwell

Exploring India's premier national park in Uttarakhand was a long-held dream realized. Jim Corbett National Park not only acquainted me with its resident tigers but also offered insights into the life of Jim Corbett himself. His literary works sparked my curiosity and offered company during breaks between safaris. Numerous moments left me in awe: The gentle descent of golden leaves from the towering Sal trees. The profound silence enveloping the forest. To interpret the language of the forest. The majestic presence of the Ramganga river. Witnessing two fish owls unsuccessfully pursue a yellow-throated martin. Hearing the measured tread of a tiger through the dry leaves and finally seeing it in its habitat(more than once). Perusing Jim Corbett's books within the park. Recognizing the profound significance of such sanctuaries, benefiting both wildlife and personal introspection. At times, the safaris seemed like a quest, a fervent pursuit to sight tigers. The outings typically co...
