Kins was around & we'd to plan something! An intensive search in AirBnB, Tripadvisor etc. realized that most of them have a whole crap with stock photographs from wild life. We did a random search in google & started ringing those who had numbers listed with best ratings. That is how we reached Samantha  & Ehraz . Dhiju (my wife) got in touch further to close down on the CampFire Nights . This blog isn't to make any word of mouth marketing about this place, but to capture my experience. I'm writing this, a day after returning from 2 nights + 3 days of CampFire stay. This place is simple! The moment you reach the foothills the scenery of the mountain will mesmerize! We parked the vehicle at the Foothill & was taken to the place in two jeeps. You'll never forget the white gypsy of Ehraz & how much he has used it as well! The Gypsy has a place in this story because that is the intro for the couple. You'll realize Ehraz is around the property

I procured Colour OS based Oneplus One from China, rooted it with CyanogenMod way before it was made available in India or US. Finally, all of our family members ended up using OnePlus phones ranging from OP1 to OP3. It has reached a stage where now my dad who is 65+ years old roots One plus with such an ease. I did watch Oneplus 5 announcement live. Oneplus 5 disappointed me. Start with the avg launch in India hosted by one of the brand ambassadors, no exciting specs, a mere copy of the design, monkeying the stage presentations of competing, trying so hard to build up a community, boasting on the innovation of competes around dual camera, moving away from the value for money, faking benchmarks, releasing disoriented intermediary models, irrelevant/not-needed brand ambassadors. Never settle...

I'm puzzled! A good fortune of powerful thoughts used in a mere myopic manner. Why? Everyone gives, with a clear motive of getting back. Espied in business. Love is pure, but under current circumstances, I'm forced to coin another term "pure love". Approach it with "pure love" in every aspect will result in magic. The magic which lasts forever & immortal. Every decision you make with pure love will be immaculate & unsurpassed! With love...with pure love...

A great read! This was posted by my brother, that too in the first day of the year in remembrance of our grandmother. ഓർമ്മയിലെ എന്റെ വെല്ലുമ്മാ ... എന്നെ നാരങ്ങ മുട്ടായി തിന്നാൻ ശീലിപ്പിച്ച എന്റെ ഉമ്മ.എന്നെ പുട്ടും ചായയും പഞ്ചസാരയും ചേർത്ത് തിന്നാൻ ശീലിപ്പിച്ച എന്റെ ഉമ്മ.എന്റെ കാശികുടുക്കയിൽ ആദ്യത്തെ 1 രൂപ തുട്ട് ഇട്ടുതന്ന എന്റെ ഉമ്മ.അങനെ എന്റെ ജീവിതത്തിൽ ചെറുതും വലുതും ആയി കുറെ ഓർമ്മകൾ തന്ന എന്റെ ഉമ്മ.ഇപ്പോളും മിനി ഹോമിന്റെ മുന്നിൽ കൂടെ പോകുമ്പോൾ എന്നെ നോക്കി നിൽക്കുന്നതായി എന്നിക്കു തോന്നും.എടാ ...പോയി കൊടുകാരന്റെ കടയിൽ നിന്ന് അടക്ക മേടിക്കടാ...നാരങ്ങ മുട്ടായിയും മേടിച്ചോ ...ചെറുപ്പത്തിൽ ഈ വാക്കുകൾ കേൾക്കുമ്പോൾ എന്തോരു സന്തോഷം ആണെന്നോ... കൊച്ചുമകളിൽ പലപ്പോഴും എന്നിക്കു തോന്നും ഉമ്മാക് എന്നോട് എന്തോ ഒരു ഇഷ്ട്ടം കൂടുതൽ ഉണ്ടെന്നു.ചിലപ്പോൾ കൊച്ചുമകളിൽ ചെറുത് ഞാൻ ആയതു കൊണ്ടാകും .ഉമ്മ മരിച്ചിട്ടു കുറെ വർഷങ്ങൾ ആയി.ഇപ്പോളും ഉമ്മാനെ അനേഷിച്ചു പലരും എന്നോടു വന്നു ചോദിക്കാറുണ്ട് . എന്റെ ജീവിതത്തിൽ ഉമ്മ പറഞ്ഞു തന്ന ചില വാക്കുകൾ ഉണ്ട് . കുറെ വർഷം കഴിഞ്ഞാണ് എന്നിക്കു അത് മനസിലായത്.എടാ ...നീ

Your demise creates a void! Oh! my mama (Puthiyaveetil Moideenkutty), the kindness, the knowledge, the support, the strength & the love you've shared with us will last longer. A video posted by Anoob Backer (@becks007) on Dec 25, 2016 at 1:26am PST Tears rolling down my cheeks! Phewwww....... You have been there for us in every critical part of our life. I'll miss you so much but the immaculacy to love, which I learned from you will be mortal & I'll cherish on that. I love you!

Time, such a trick of thaumaturgy. With good times comes the beatitude & with bad times comes the sentience. The bad times enlighten is what our ancestors time after time have put in words. Is that because of the sentience bad times bring? Given a free will, good times are preferred by an exquisitely confused mind.  Isn't that a pretty irony? Blame the time! No that isn't where I'm going. The thought which provoked me today was that why do we loose sentience during the good times. Is it because you don't deserve that inordinate time? You might be putting a maid at home or a person to wash your car. The time you bought how well did you fritter away? If that is put to use to watch movie/tv or relax or to shop or spent on gossip, then you just reduced it to skin-and-bones. We've died to accumulate, die wisely with no leeway for heartbreak! What is your take?

A pretty long day for us. We drove from Bangalore. The car after a breakdown at Salem was again having issues. We gave the car for service at Thrissur. Papa & Mummy was at Thrissur since morning. We all welcomed our Dhiqur (nephew). It was a blessed day for our family. We drove to Koolimuttam. Towards the night 8:30 PM we reached. Met our beloved uncle & aunty. We started back at around 9:30 PM to Aluva, where papa & mummy lives. I, my wife, kids, papa & mom in the car. I was driving at a very comfortable speed & totally dark all around. A simple thought slithered in while driving. This has been an ever running thought in me. I wanted to ask this multiple times but didn't feel like earlier. But today I dared to ask this to my papa & mom. What is the point of life? What is your take on life? [me] My mom got a bit emotional thinking about her parents. My mom has always been the person who cheers my thoughts. A lot of points were made both mom & pa

Even after an year the learnings are so fresh in my mind. My journey started, the day I knew about the Retreat for Young 2015 . It was a colossal struggle to make up the decision for joining the retreat & finally, it happened on retreat start day at 3 PM . It was at a critical moment in my life when I choose to join the retreat. After the morning session on the 1st day, I was discussing with Pradeep about my caged mind! By the evening, Murali puts up a physical representation of caged mind. I made a complete interaction during the retreat. It was a holistic experience made for me. Those 4 days was audacious which chiseled my mind. Towards the last day, I realized my conditioning & the dialogues presented me an experiment which was to " Love: Observe every relation with deep curiosity every single time! " I left the study center with a profound grief, not because I was bidding adieu or yearn the valley. The days at study center rejuvenated deeply to prebirth.

The Egyptians knew that the form of the upper lip could depict the sound for M. Therefore they took the sign for the letter M from the picture of the upper lip. From this sign, the letter that we use for the beginning of the word mouth emerged, and the letter is also valid for any other word beginning with the same sound. In this way, the picture sign for the beginning of a word became the sign for a sound.

Breads are such an integral part of our life since centuries. Four key ingredients which are wheat, water, sugar and salt . Kneading a dough was a time taking process and it used to take 3-4days before it gets ready for the kids to take it to the baker. Interesting process is how air pockets are formed and the stays within which when gets baked forms a beautiful air cave of aroma. This adds to the experience of bread eating. The beauty of this in a humanity side is that a little dough can serve a whole lot of the people. In fact we are eating air in the process. Scientific side of it may look like breaking the wheat grain into something which can be easy digested by humans. Breaking wheat to smaller grains and then flour. This helps in storing and transporting things effectively. The personal at home process of converting into dough. There after three days of fermentation breaks the essence out of it for easy consumption and increased volume. Then baking it which further increases
