Jai ho! A smart chap from Trivandrum woke me up from my slumber. It’s round the corner. No, no, it’s up there… all set for ‘on your march, get set go’. Let the pessimists and mischief makers go to hell. But still! Don’t be in a hurry. May be you are thinking of weight lifting or 100 meters dash or a host of such things and India’s chances.

The much awaited common wealth games had to overcome several obstacles but on day one, the best of India were on display. East, west, north or south, Indian classical dances and songs have many things in common, though the styles may be a bit different… there is something divine about them.

Yes, even as we look forward to a few gold medals, we should also focus on our hospitality.

First things first. I am one of those retired chaps who are young at heart. I watch cricket matches and jump for joy when Tendulkar scores yet another century. I read newspapers and books too, though I am not crazy about them. I think I have a mind free from hatred and I owe it to the wonders of nature and music. I scribble something now and then and call myself a writer! Though I have settled in Ooty, a lovely hill station in Tamil Nadu—I must emphasize the fact that I was born and brought up in Tellicherry in North Kerala and studied in the good old Government Brennen College. Of and on, my mind goes back to my ancestral house at Tiruvangad in Tellicherry in front of an ancient Sri Ram temple. I am indebted to this wonderful place which inculcated in me a love for cricket and literature. But all said and done, I am an Indian first.
