For Him

I saw him --- a bleak image walking down my gully in the mist today morning. He was walking past my dream ,walking past the accacia tree along the road ladden with sleepy yellow flowers.

i dont know much about him.I met him many times sitting worried ,waiting for her among the crowd .
One evening we walked in the moonlight trying to confide all the frustration we had from others and share all the love we had for someone else. Blue blanket of clouds wrapped us all over as we made love and the moon was brightest ever in the whole decade. The Vodka and the fragnant candle played the prop for the unforseen play.
As he kept on walking i tried to recollect his face. May be some software can mix and match a face for me.But he was unique.
I felt i could confide all the emotions in him. living alone i must admit is a dull persistent pain.The pain wanders in my room my wardrobe my books and all over me.
"Hey are you back, how are you and can we talk" I asked the little star who was alone in the pale sky 12:50 am right in front of by balcony before i sent this text message.
" I am with 2-3 issues.will talk to you by 5" I know as he told me when you are at the top management level you are alone and you run the show.
should i ask him to meet me soon. My hearts still beats and say so. Let the charcoal wet and damp do the pixeling to create his face.

Piggy -Banks

I woke up today early morning to drop my brother at the Railway station.Its winter in bangalore.I Drove back home in my activa.I went for a long walk after that.I have read some where that to get innovative ideas the best thing is morning walk.I always found the roads near my house dusty.But morning 7 am it was calm and quiet except for cabs going to drop techies from call centers home after their night shift. I found this man with a red turban pulling his cart full of piigy banks-The ones made of mud, coloured red yellow and green,found in shapes of pumkin and tomatoes(not sure which one to be specific).

A question poped in to my mind will i let my kids use these piggy banks to understand savings in this era of fast age banking . Well some great novelist had written about how kids would think about piggy banks-Number one enemy to be outwitted.

On my last visit to the bank i saw little cute kids from a near by kindergarden learning about counting machines and ATM's.I asked my banker what progarmme is this.She with a smart smile told me it some kids advantage scheme.Ourkids now know what e banking is all about .The even know what ATM's are which i knew in 2003 after i got a job and landed in chennai.

So the question now are we building huge gaps between the society--The under privileged who still dont have access to the changes happening like the man whom i saw early in the morning and people like us who are thinking locally and acting globally,who are innovating.

so is the world really flat????
