Ithra thollam jayam thanna daivathinu sthothram
Iduvare karudhiya rekshakanu sthothram
Inniyum kripa thonni karudhideney
Inniyum nadathenney thiru hidam pol.
These words somehow said what was on my mind, no wonder I remembered this song today.

Still back and writing..New Year, New Resolutions
I surprise myself when I come back to write a new post, never thought this blog will last past the first post. Anyway, good things must be appreciated.
Every time a new year dawns, I think "another year to pass, well that's a long time" but after the year passes by I think "another year went by, that was so fast". I usually don't make too many resolutions, its hard to even remember, I make just one. So last year before 2009 started, I told myself that I would start on a fitness regime. I am so proud of myself when I look back - the last year I have stuck to it not matter what the weather or reason except when I wasn't at home. The only time I could not stick to it was when Aditi was diagnosed and that was 3 months of just home-hospital trips which did not give me the space or the mental framework to do or think anything except what would happen to Aditi. I'm back to the gym and I love it. I am able to challenge myself physically and overcome any blocks with pure perseverance. Many a times I think I am becoming like a machine myself.
Ishaan has started a blog too and I am so proud of him about that. He surprises me with his intelligence at this young age, he knows so many more things about countries, locations, weather (that's his best..) than we ever thought of. Wonder what our kids will become when they grow???
The weekend coming and have so many things to do, just don't know what to start with. Spoke to a friend and while I thank God for the good health He has given our kids in spite of the chemo and stuff, I wonder what His plans are for some others who have been going through such difficult times. I marvel at the resilience of the human spirit ! Lord cover us and our families in your grace.....its sufficient for us (Aditi crunching papadums in the background) ....God Bless

Writing and Me......hmmm
Never thought that I would ever write or blog... well you never know how long this will last but till it does I will spill my heart out.
I'm just currently in the hospital with my doll - Aditi as she receives her treatment - yea chemo, never thought I would say Chemo and Aditi in one breath. I watch as she sleeps having eaten a total of 5 tsp of rice, chicken and veggies, which my mum cooked early this morn for me to bring to the hospital. What would we do without our mothers I wonder many a times...they are so precious inspite of all the many squabbles we may have had over the years and the bickering and tears they still come by to help in our weakest moments and lend such a strong hand. Ode to all mothers out there......I love you mums !!!
Well, if you want to know what has been happening with my daughter, you will find her on Facebook - AditiMiriamSamuel. That profile is really her father's baby, so you can find his creative genius spill out there.
Still waiting for the toxin to flush out through her body and will take her back this evening. A little boy crying in the background, poor babies what they have to go through....Cant wait to get back home and relax with a cup of Kopi-O !!!! bliss......
I'm currently browsing through a few cooking blogs too while writing my blog - I cant do just one thing at a time - its a habit. Maria's blog, Ria's collections to name a few, I need tips from them...
