My Photo Album-181: NSP

NSP is related to me in more than one way.  We are almost of the same age.  He has helped me during crucial events of my life like my daughter's marriage, my father's death and while I was organizing the Karaikudi Book Festival.  We get on well and like each other. Recently I was there when he celebrated his birthday and could taste the birthday cake. 

I am grateful to him and my God bless him and his family.

My Photo Album-177: My brother-in-law, Sukumar

This is my wife's second younger brother, Sukumar. Right from the beginning, life has been very unkind to him and he has met with a lot of sufferings and tragedies, with courage and confidence.  I feel very sad for him and his children

All his family members used to be very affectionate to me.  Then, one member, the sheet-anchor of the family, passed away.  Both his children were very attached to me.  But now they have grown and probably have many other interests and have no time for this, to borrow one of their favourite phrases,  "MOKKAI MAMA".  

May God bless them all and may they find peace, prosperity and happiness!

A Thought for Today-602: W. C. Doane

Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, over steep ways to the stars, fulfills itself - W. C. Doane, American Bishop
