''Rampayari'' the friendly cow gets lost in the jungle,she's afraid,vulnerable and wants to go home.but when she recalls the face of her ill mannered master (she doesn't like to be disturbed in the morning) she decides to stay back with the spooky ghosts.am in love with the cows these days <3 love the way they stare with their innocent eyes.I wish if I could have one.pencil... colors...am seriously outta drawing stuff (sniff sniff)

''colorblind''

Hello...after such a looooong break.so long that I have gained three kg's in this while :P hehe...( heights of laziness I know)

Desi rock band :D

Now here's what I call a true desi rock band,freaking aunties Thursday evening gig at a nearby temple.thanks to their noisy rendition that gets everyone's attention.I think its more to do with the fact that it gives them a chance to be something more then just a wife,mother and daughter.singing at the top of their lungs they just want to vent all their depression on this harsh world.well that's sappy on my side right? ;P but that's what I feel..what the hell.

watch out Metaliica,here they come.lol

True colors

The festival of colors is over, leaving behind its traces in the form of  these beautiful,vivacious and colorful flowers which are reminders that spring has finally arrived and It's time to come out of those warm quilts and cozy sweaters :) It's so much fun to sit on the grass and read a book picked up randomly from the bookshelf or perhaps eat those oranges which fills my nose with that fresh, brisk smell every time I peel it's skin.oh god!am so amazed to see all these colors at the same time.spring spring,oh lovely spring,you bring so much joy to me.I don't want you to leave.I promise you to read all those dragon tales or something from the Wordsworth if you would stay by my side.we'll stare at that mango tree and count those tiny little rose buds or we could walk barefoot in the garden,feeling the soft grass beneath our skin.stay with me forever.

I Love Tibet ♥♥ ''McLeaodganj''

Today I want to share a few pictures from my lill trip to Mcleodganj.It's a small town in the midst of Kangra valley,Himachal Pradesh.It's home to the Dalai Lama and several famous monasteries.Being a town blessed with Tibetan culture,it'll not be wrong to say that Tibet has lent a lot of importance to this town.The sanctity of Buddhism was so inspiring their that it could provide peace and serenity to any jangling soul.I didn't know much about this small panoramic unless one of my very dear Tibetan friend ''Nawang'' told me about it.am really thankful to him to encourage me to visit this scenic beauty.am planning again to visit it soon.can't wait really.. ♥♥  

                                                                           

                          

                                                                    

                                     

                                       

            

                                                                           

                                

                                                                         

               Tibetan culture that has added color and life to the quaint town.

                                                                 

                                                                                   

                            The Dalai Lama´s Temple,Home to Great Dalai Lama.

                                                                               

                                                      

                                                                         

 Tibetan Museum in Mcleodganj is open from sunrise to sunset everyday and provided me with lots of imperative details about the history of the Freedom struggles of Tibet.I was really touched with the story how his holiness ''Dalai Lama'' had to leave his country and take refugee in India.U know I really don't like to refer Tibetans as refugee's as they are now almost an integral part of Indian culture and am really glad and proud to have such beautiful people in our country.I  always have feeling of empathy towards Tibet perhaps cause we share the same story of freedom struggle.I wish to see Tibet as a free country some day at least as long as I live.

                                    

                                                                 

                                   

                                                            

                                      

aah..I miss those semi Tibetan and western food joints,The very left are the world famous Tibetan ''momos'' and in the right is a kind of noodle soup called ''Thukpa'' it's one of my favorite.I often cook it on cool winter evenings.

                                                                                

                                                       

A lovely glass of jasmine Tea,very aromatic!!Also,the amazing banana pancakes for a perfect brunch!drooll..... 

                                            

                                                                              

                                              

The very pretty ''Dal lake'' although one could take a little boat ride here but I prefer to leave it in it's own tranquility.it's more amazing to take a little stroll around it.  

  

                                                                               

          

These pictures are of the ''Bhagsunag Temple'' at Mcledganj,this temple has a really big water fall gushing with crystal clear water.this last one is one of my favorites,it was a small cave kinda place where one could paint and write on small rocks.I would love to have a studio like that :) hehe..

                                       

  I loved these small little handicraft shops,they sell traditional Tibetan thangka painting, woodcarving and metal craft and If you are a magpie then you could also pick your way through corals or amethysts, rubies or topaz .

Phew...this is probably one of my longest post ever but I wanted to share my whole experience with you all.I hope u liked the pictures.

             

Memories by my side

I've been enjoying winters a lot. There’s been a lot of Drawing, painting and guitar classes all this winter. I love walking in the woods, isolated and quite or perhaps just sit back and relax under the shades of the lush green trees, admiring every little creation of nature and startled by their beauty. For a moment I forget about the piles of work on my desk and walk with the silence holding hands. I want to go and on listening to it, deeper into the serenity but sooner or later, we all have to wake up from the dream :) I know it'll be all over soon as the summer returns back but I will cherish all these memories in these pictures and of course in my heart. I am a dreamer and always will be :) 

''Memories are like flowers. The perfume of memories and flowers stay with us forever''

Random thoughts..

The sun has been missing for a week now and it's dark thick mist all over.although there's nothing much to do other then sit inside,I still like to sit beside my window pane and observe the melting fog in the form of tiny little droplets on the branches in my garden.It's so peaceful to just sit and watch it all.It might sound daunting to some of those who have been facing the gradual flight cancels and traffic jams :P .tomorrow's Sunday and am all excited for my guitar class.I practiced really hard this whole week and I hope I won't disappoint my teacher yet again :D

“But the majestic river floated on, / Out of the mist and hum of that low land, / Into the frosty starlight, and there moved, / Rejoicing, through the hushed Chorasmian waste, / Under the solitary moon.”

Matthew Arnold

                                                                         

Starlite!!

There are times when I feel happy,sad,anxious,nervous or guilt out of nowhere.umm..happens to me all the time.these are one of those days when am feeling magical :) thanks to J.M Berrie, reading a lot of classics nowadays.
                                           

                                                                                 

                                                                         
                        We are all in the gutter,it's just that some of us are looking at the stars **
