A Thought for Today-610: Bruce Barton


Action and reaction, ebb and flow, trial and error, change - this is the rhythm of living. Out of our over-confidence, fear; out of our fear, clearer vision, fresh hope. And out of hope, progress - Bruce Barton

My Photo Album-183: Rtn Muthu.Palaniappan

My acquaintance with Rtn Muthu.Palaniappan began with the First Karaikudi Book Festival.  He has been very kind to me from that time and has been helping me in many ways.  He is the President of the Karaikudi Chamber of Commerce and a much sought after local VIP.  He is a highly public-spirited person. He has donated blood for more than 100 times and this occasion was celebrated at the Karaikudi Kamban Mandapam by his friends and well-wishers and I could also participate in it. Here is with Suri and his wife on the occasion of Suri's 60th birthday celebrations. I shall always cherish his kindness and support.  May God bless him and his family!

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.
