Home -- I am going to miss

Yesterday I went to place that I have called HOME for the maximum duration in my life. Everything looked the same, same set of decoration, same set of photos of family n friends hanging on the wall. But everything had a thick layer of dust... two thoughts struck me. One was that even though not a lot of time has passed but life is not the same and second it felt that even after so much has changed once u "dust it cean" it will be home again. But this time when I dust it clean it will be to pack up things n set of to a new journey.
I met friends who asked me y don't I work here... why am I going back to India. All I tell them is that I want to-- how else do I explain. At this point after I leave Thailand I will not have a place that I will call home. I will have to make a home and strat over again.

I will miss Bankgok. I will miss my friends here.

Two-way channel for The Hindu's readers from The Hindu

THE READERS' Editor of The Hindu will be functional from March 1, 2006. The key
objectives of this appointment are to institutionalise the practice of
self-regulation, accountability, and transparency; to create a new visible
framework to improve accuracy, verification, and standards in the newspaper; and
to strengthen bonds between the newspaper and its millions of print platform and
online readers.
The Readers' Editor will be a two-way channel for readers'
suggestions and grievances relating to accuracy, fairness, standards, good
taste, and the highest values of journalism in whatever is published in The
Hindu . Complaints will be enquired into and follow-up action taken by
publishing corrections or clarifications; by replying to the complainant; and by
enabling corrective action to be taken, as needed.


This experiment will depend on how responsible readers are.

Time to leave

Few hrs from now I will set on to something new. I don't know what awaits me but I do know that I am leaving some precious friends... and as sad as that makes me I am sure that we will manage to keep in touch.

To meet and to part is the story of life,
To part and to meet is the glory of life.

India bird flu tests 'negative' from BBC


Indian health officials say 94 out of 95 samples collected from people with flu-like symptoms have tested negative for bird flu.

Results from one final sample are expected on Saturday.

Hundreds of thousands of birds have been slaughtered after the deadly H5N1 bird flu strain was found in Navapur town in Maharashtra state last week.

The authorities have now completely sealed the town, which has a population of 30,000, and 19 nearby villages.
