HAPPY ANNIVERSARY.

I am happy to see the postings by Shruti and Akila and particularly the picture of Jaysahankar and Priya. It is not clear to me what is the picture posted by Akila.  
Saradam and I wish Jayashankar and Priya a happy anniversary and many happy returns. 
When is Shruti going to send me the file containing all the dates.


LALGUDI
I am presently reading a biography of Lalgudi Jayaraman by Lakshmi Devnath. I want to quote a passage I liked much This is part of the advice given by the mother of Lalgudi's wife Rajam to her when she was first leaving for her PUKKAGAM. The idea is old and I learnt a Tamil poemfrom NAALADIAR with the same idea in school in Tamil but it is nicely put by Devnath.

"There is no household without problems. Look at those worse off than you and gain comfort; observe those better than you and feel inspired". 

In actual practice, most of us do  exactly the the opposite.
