Vani, welcome to the land of milk and honey😆 Was the garden where ur son married the Portland Japanese garden? ITS BEAUTIFUL. The homes near it are to die for... the roads leading to it are windy and treacherous.. so beautiful. How did u reconcile to the fact that ur son did not marry an Iyer😭 I think such a future holds true for every immigrant like me😃 I could use some early lessons
Ennamma Nisha...You embarass all of us by saying Sorry ...whatever for ?? A chat with you is as valuable as your update !!

As for the son...In today's day and age, we should firstly be glad if he hooks up with a girl 😃 ..My dear friend's son who is a really great guy too, has come out of the closet...plays the cello like a dream, conducts great sessions on the Ramayana, and is gay ..

ippo enna cheiyaradu ???
Mine was very clear his partner was going to be his choice...so we thalai aatteed ( nodded ) for that...he said he will arrange the wedding and that too in Seattle itself...thalai aateed again..was a lovely ceremony...full of lots of happiness..but we were thanjavur bommais for everything 😊

but the ceremony was not too traditional in the typical way...i had to go in fact to the DIL's house at 5.30 am and tie saris for the whole bunch as they needed help...
we move with changing times
join the queue of my friends who constantly ask me queries on bringing up boys...i mentor them 😉 and most of the time it is this too shall pass !!!!

and really sorry about your friend and the illness...In fact over here, every family seems to have someone or the other undergoing chemo or radiation...sad ...sad..perhaps it is the lifestyle, perhaps the modified food...who knows ??

Hi all GM/GE
So many discussions. We didn't get an update for good cause. Thumps up Nisha. You are one super woman. Believe me sitting chemo and radio therapy rooms is worst experience of life. We have gone through it 10 years back😔
Mom has undergone both the therapies. She is a recepient of breast cancer. By God grace she is fit and fine after 12 years also. She is a very brave woman. When doctor told her that she has diagnosed with breast cancer and asked whether she is scared of it?. She told doctor no my kids are big and they can take care of their dad. Doc told keep this courage till the end of treatment and you will defeat the cancer.

But my friend was not lucky her mom's breast cancer spread to bones and she couldn't survive 😔

@putti 77
Your mother is a brave woman and can share her story with those who are going thru it now. Unfortunately with this disease it is as much about the mind as the cancer itself...

A few years back, I had two friends going thru chemo at the same time and everytime I would go to the room with soup for both of them, my heart would break...happily both of them came out ok and are doing well...

oh well..
@shev lovely lovely pictures of Matt .. btw regarding gay i have given up nowadays in US i think almost any good looking guy is gay 😉 i think they get chased by too many girls so decide to go the other route 😆😆..
ab koi farak nahi padtha i believe in the saying a thing of beauty is a joy for ever dekhne me kya harj hai .. 😉


Oh my god! This is the definition I give for good looking gay men.
And the second is from PB Shelley Thing of beauty is joy forever , I quote it all the time, u r the first person I have heard quoting it😊 We are now 100% confirmed sisters 😆😆.

Hey people I am home now

THANK YOU FOR THE KIND WORDS
That Aunty is 75 or over I think...

Doc S I AM SO SORRY. I cant even begin expressing my grief. Nothing makes sense in this world any more. Until recently I believed in "Do good only good will happen to you"

I kinda gave up on that. I still do good, not because I will be rewarded its because its a compulsive itch... a terrible habit I cant seem to get rid of how ever I try

I border on atheism these days... some things defy explanation altogether

I cannot think of that lil 1 year old's face... your friend's kid
Sigh!!

I cannot help in anyway... so helpless

Life is cruel... there is no bullshitting about it

Nisha..how can doing good be a terrible habit 😊
You are doing what your heart tells you is right and kudos to that !!!!
How many people even stop to think about others around them...ok, perhaps offer a few words of platitude and move on saying paavam..
A few like you stop and reach out...Thanks for being who you are ⭐️
And as for atheism...a long standing debate in my house...amma is ultra religious and her life starts and ends with swami...swami..
Iam more non conformist and any time prefer to hug a 100 year old tree than an idol..i love temples but it is for the energy they generate 😊

docs...apologies for missing you out in my earlier post...really feel bad about your SIL..hope she gets the strength to fight and her family to cope
