......Unusually Rainy at this time of the yr ....as RainGods doing the rounds frequently ...The Presidential Innauguration round the corner and preparation in full swing ....Diwali passed off with festive fervour interacting with frnds and fmlys back home ....the communicability is relentless and excellent , both electronic and transport . As I fly every mnth to Mumbai to reunite with fmly briefly.... the Airports at both places a short distance....a comforting factor ....the main street here a long one is waterlogged in patches , this is one area the City infra failed ...the inner streets are congested and waterlogged...a much desired renovation ....The wars continue to linger and frm times immemorial the mindset of might is right dominate....the Human Civilization witnesses not much of a progress ...The Wars are obsolete and in this era irrelevant other than destruction ....as human misery pile up so is the indifference....The real war is on the health front and full attention need to allocate proper direction as the latest Pandemic proved ... It shud hv been a period of reconstruction as many fmlys lost kins in the aftemath of the Onslaught ....with excellent Technology the young minds are a hope to change the old order....!!
.....Rojnamcha...!!! the Indian Ocean Diary having being initiated in 2010 is very close to Heart....journey of an Indian Doctor's service in a remote land...!!!

Fragile string and a thread to behold....
Fragility has crept in....no matter how much u try ..the thread and tenterhooks....a sigh....and crash will come the world...in smithereens...all investments of yesteryears down the drain ....a loss surreptitiously well entrenched....Crusoe made more relevant as he braces up to the kingdom of raw nature, bereft of an iota of a civilization....the social order so painstakingly inculcated now under tremendous pressure from the whiff of fragility doing the rounds...as humans hurtling down the vortex of a myopic view....as far far away from reality of age old systems nurturing stability....a silent revolution has crept in eating away the very foundations of humanity....as you only live in a time frame and the framework finite.....

.....there are too many Birds around ......
.....there are too many Birds around ....the abode navigation at the junction of two narrow lanes , with choc a bloc residences, balconies adorned with flower pots with busy bee doing the rounds , no wonder there will be birds as the Giant fig tree got decapitated recently on account of FIFA world cup Qatar 22, to accomodate a screen , now though over the mnths post the enthralling final , disdainfully growing at breakneck speed , foliage growing rapidly , just as the Phoenix rising from its ashes .....the hitherto displaced birds, now on cloud nine reclaiming their lost places....the incessant chirping in an otherwise , mechanised upcoming city , with decibel levels of a myriad of machineries to keep it going ....the Birds the Bees now working overtime to regain lost place ....hence the Cacophony ... the living with the Machines .....
As , one , is felled , by the sheer remoteness of the land , when one swiftly drifts away from the busy shores , the tallest of all buildings dips below the horizon ....its an altogether different proposition ....the lush green Coconut trees swaying ...a footfall on the warm white beach , and there you are , all to yourself ....the Tropical Sun beating mercilessly , you laze on the sand , not a soul in sight , a true Sabbatical, which everyone so very much desire .....!!!!

...the Spectacular trio of islands ...
A very Happy New year to All....freshly back from home on 3rd instant with all the sparkles rubbed from homeland , augurs well for yet another stint of a stay in the Sunny land of Maldives.....
As the plane veered sharply and banked to its right a breathtaking view is witnessed of the trio of islands of Male' , Hulhumale' ^ Hulhule' the airport island , the connecting sea bridge ....the feeling of spending a major chunk of active life here with all encompassing sea sank deeper , first time in 17 yrs this view was witnessed by sheer coincidence ....and must I say its a must see...!!!!
A Sea & Lord Hanuman in between .....
Shubho NaboBorsho greetings to all !!! There is festivity in the air ...the brisk walk back to home post Clinic tells it all....
