நட்பின் நாள்


இன்று நட்பின் நாள், நண்பர்கள் நாள்!

திருவள்ளுவர் கச்சிதமாக சொல்லியிருக்கிறார்:
"உடுக்கை இழந்தவன் கைபோல - ஆங்கே
இடுக்கண் களைவதாம் நட்பு",
மேலும்,
"முகநக நட்பது நட்பன்று - நெஞ்சத்து
அகநக நட்பதே நட்பு" என்றெல்லாம்.

நல்ல நண்பர்களாக இருப்போம்...

நானும் நமது ஊரும்...







கடல் கவிதை...


தமிழ்தான்...

நிறைய நாட்களாக
தமிழ் எழுத முடியாமல் இருந்தது.
இப்போது எவ்வளவு சந்தோசம்!
இன்னும் எழுதவேண்டும் போலிருக்கிறது
ஆனால் தூக்கம் கண்களை தழுவுகின்றதே.
கனவுகள் காண்போம், கற்பனை வளர்ப்போம்
கவிதை புனைவோம், கதை என வாழ்வோம்.

இது சும்மா எழுதியது...

In search of you!


'Unnaithedi!'

Sr. Prema came...

Happened to meet her at the St. Pauls' Book Centre. She too seemingly wanted to see me and especially to give an invitation for the marriage of her uncle Bosco's daughter, the one of the twin, deaf and dumb daughters! The boy is from our village only. May be to avoid embarasment and to reach out when in need.

Shared with her our home problems regarding the 'broken' marriage of Saumy mol, my brother's daughter! It was a breather from keeping everything in the small little heart!

கண்ணீர் அஞ்சலி... Fr. J. G. Jesudas

Fr. J. G. Jesudas, a great priest who loved his people and promoted their growth through educational endeavours, especially that of St. Jude's College, Thoothoor. His end came day before yesterday while taking a walk after a late dinner after visiting place to establish his yet another dream of accomodating sick people called 'Bethdaida." A man who died while working for his people till his very end.

Few weeks ago, he called me over the phone. But unfortunately i could not respond that nor could call later. It might have been for the college matter which sails in a disturbed sea of power hungry and position mongering priests and their sycophants. Though both the bishops of Kottar and Trivandrum are involved, some of the above type of priests scuttled it to their favor, but may not to the benefit of poor people and students.

May his good soul pray for the conversion of those type of priests to dedicate themselves for the cause of the people and not for their own 'glory.'

May his good soul rest in peace!
