10. I got myself a Selfie stick selfie ( Maybe I should block you now)

11.I can also cook selfie ( we hope you become as fat as an elephant )

12.The selfie with the newly weds and sometimes by the newly weds themselves

13.The Iam so bored selfie ( so are we seeing your face)
14.I voted selfie ( we all did )

15.Iam dancing at the pub selfie ( and I'm snoring )
16.for non church/temple goers there probably is a church/temple selfie too
17. Got a new vehicle selfie( don't forget to take number 5 selfie on this list)
18. The hospital selfie



Tis the season of selfies indeed! I myself love taking selfies and I' myself am a culprit of number 4,7,12 mentioned above ! This post is more like a "reminder to self" for me too !! Taking selfies are good  but unknowngly we lose our precious time in taking these shots.We are too busy fixing our hair and editing our pictures!. No time to console ! No time to care! No time to help! No time to share! But there is enough time to show off these  innumerable snaps to the world  & claim that you have a life . Do you ?really? Are you a living lie?A kind word and a warm hug is  probably what will create memory than a photograph where feelings are unexchanged!  ! Take your time out from the screen ...!!  Look into your friends' eye... Not the camera ..and make a conversation ... Talk.. Laugh.. Giggle .. Fight... Hug.... ! There is no harm in clicking photos ... But it shouldn't be the ONLY thing you do when you go out !!

Lost in Two Dimensions

  We gaze at screens, day and night, A world so flat, yet shining bright. Pixels dance, but can’t replace, The warmth of touch, a loved one’s face. No scent of earth, no ocean's breeze, No velvet grass beneath our knees. No taste of rain, no fire’s glow, Just silent echoes, a hollow show. Are we alive, or just a view? A life so crisp, yet missing hue. Step outside, let senses soar, Feel, breathe, taste—be whole once more. # unLearn

To my Dearest Grandmother....

                Cultivating habits like writing a dairy is not a cake walk anymore. Atleast not in this generation where we are all drowning in the ocean of technology. Infact Ayamachi once asked me “ Mole! Ee Phone il entha ullathu? Ellavarum ithu epozhum enthina pidichu kondu nadakunnathu? . Those words hit deep and I realised we are giving more importance to this nonliving man made thing than anything else. Are we carrying the Bible the same way everywhere we go?                     While we jot down our “To Do Lists” Ayammachi has it memorised. There used to be a time when landphones existed  in every house and when she memorised the telephone numbers of her near and dear ones.
