escalator

and then i was stuck in the middle of a lonely escalator moving down after everyone had left the building.

i kept running up, wanting to take back something i cannot remember i had left behind. i was remaining at the same place running as the escalator went on sliding down on silent belts.

it was extremely tiring in the beginning, having to exert so much to stay at the same place...

very soon the tiredness vanished and i found myself on light feet running up without panting. the steps of the escalator came folding down and went sliding down under my feet and i was alone and feeling so very happy running.

milestones

this heart attack happening the other day in its wake brings a kind of lull when the wind falls silent and one holds the breath and listens, looking back as on reaching the top of a hill turning the head to see the path traversed winding its way down far below.

the 16th of this month is a milestone in our life. it is our 35th wedding anniversary.

this is how we used to look like 35 years ago when we became man and wife, both of us barely 23 years old:

and now we look like this:

our grandson Aiden, whom we call kunhikuttan, or kunhoottan, is also seen in the picture.

all the very best to all of you!!!
