Dancing in the Rain

August 17, 2019 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

If you live in North Carolina the only weather forecast you take seriously is a hurricane headed your way. So three days ago when they predicted thunderstorms I headed out for a walk with A and two umbrellas in tow and although the clouds looked menacing they only managed to squeeze out a few drops … Continue reading Dancing in the Rain

December 2, 2018 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

This is something I started two years ago and get excited about doing every year. Some of you have also taken this up and I'm sure you find it as rewarding as I do.

Man Against Man

October 20, 2018 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

As I was driving to work one day with my son, I stopped at a signal and saw the road in front of me teeming with police vehicles. One lane on the opposite side of the road was blocked by a police car. Around eight to ten officers were crowding over something. On looking closer, … Continue reading Man Against Man

When Florence Came…

September 22, 2018 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

It was just me and the kids against the fury of Florence - a category 4 hurricane hurtling towards the Carolinas. The models predicted that it was headed straight for us and was going to dump torrential rain and tear down trees with its catastrophic winds. I didn't know what to do. I had never … Continue reading When Florence Came…

When You Don’t Let Go

March 30, 2018 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

Old story. But you need to hear it again so I can set the stage for what I'm about to relate. Three years ago my family decided to move to India after living in the U.S. for nearly 13 years. I was quite optimistic about jumping continents. After all, I had spent all of my … Continue reading When You Don’t Let Go

Enough is Enough

February 19, 2018 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

It should have happened right after Sandy Hook. It didn't! Orlando? Nope! Maybe after Las Vegas. No, it didn't! And I don't think it will unless we make a big deal about it and don't rest till real change happens. If we can bring down a Harvey Weinstein and a Larry Nassar with #MeToo then … Continue reading Enough is Enough

Harvesting Bountiful Gifts

October 16, 2017 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

The shorter days and longer nights make me thankful for the warmth of the sun and the long lazy days of summer that never ended. Pumpkins, squash and sweet potatoes in abundance remind me that Mother Earth will provide for us even when the cold winter winds blow. A roof over our heads and family … Continue reading Harvesting Bountiful Gifts

The Right Moment Will Never Come

June 5, 2017 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

How many times have you put off doing stuff just because the conditions weren't as perfect as you wanted them to be? For the longest time I wanted to do a yoga teacher training(YTT). I looked up several classes in the area. I looked up schedules and everything but always felt like it was a lot of … Continue reading The Right Moment Will Never Come

A Chapter from my Book : Thank You Dadima

January 20, 2017 by DC, posted in Uncategorized

Weekends at Dadima’s house were a lazy affair, for me that is. I woke up late, wandered around in my PJs, with my hair in a tangled and disheveled mess. Dadi would be up by 7.00 a.m. and would wash her hair, starch her cotton saris and put them on the clothesline for the maids … Continue reading A Chapter from my Book : Thank You Dadima
