'When the friends are gone, when the party's over We'll still belong to each other'-- Shakira 'Underneath you clothes' You must be thinking I've got a very cheesy taste in music, but well this what I was reminded of when I took the picture last night. Dresden city centre bus stop at 10:30 p.m. The moon! Inside the Centrum Galerie Just fascinated with the tree braving out Fall and managing to get some new leaves out The Lights I saw from far away, the other end actually!

We walked to the city last evening. It's about 4 kms from home but I felt like it. We walked hand in hand through the dark crisp coolness at a leisurely pace. The path to the city is quite dark apart from the occasional street lights and car headlights that zoom pass, we also have to cross a bridge that passes over the railway lines, that bit can get especially windy but last night was mild. You can see the grand structure of the main railway station at a distance as you walk over the bridge. As we approached the city centre I was struck by the sheer brilliance of the light that emanated from there. Here we were walking in the stillness of cold november dusk, slightly introspective and a little glum but the approaching light in a flash changed the tone of the evening. I wasn't feeling cold anymore. It was warmth and happiness and energy that impressed upon me. The closer we got more Christmas decorations came into our view.

Disclaimer: nothing to do with Federico Fellini or Mastroianni! “ Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back.

And if you can find someone to love, the you you love, well, that's just fabulous. ” - Carrie Bradshaw- An American Girl in Paris: Part Deux! (Sex and the City) I have never known what I wanted out of life except that I wanted it to be easy. Now that certainly isn't something that happens; easier than others' can happen but never really easy! I always have an answer for the things I do not want to do but it's been quite difficult coming up with a list of all the wants. So I have a question, how...

On the week days, when my husband is at work, I find various ways to keep myself pleasantly entertained. I love reading but I seem to to be doing less and less of it because I hate the silence when I am alone, I need some noise so I end up watching interviews and concerts of various kinds on the internet and watch a lot of movies. I find movies very interesting, I like watching all kinds from serious artsy kinds to horror and gore. I watch the good movies as well as the bad ones. I enjoy the expression of this particular medium, very different from novels but equally enjoyable. Unlike books movies attract a larger crowd and reaches out to all sections of the society. They bring to the mass an idea, any idea and can be highly influential. Now this post has nothing to do with a lesson in media studies and society rather it's just about a song I fell in love with called Book of Love. It's probably a very old song but I heard the Peter Gabriel version of it on the soundtrack of th...
