You quote me verbatim.
Yes, I'm indeed very fond of you.
Troubled souls like yours are a delight to pester!

Hi Deep,
I am writing a comment on your blog for the last time. This is to inform you that I have received your message very loudly and very, very clearly. The message that those mails that I sent you, far from being entertaining, funny etc. (the way others found them to be) were not received well by you. I was just joking in an earlier comment in which I said that I would continue to send these mails to you. I am not going to do any such thing. I failed to see the extent of the problem that those mails were giving you and also I did not understand the hints that you dropped earlier as I thought you were not all that serious about it. You on your part could have also written a seriously worded letter and posted it to my mailing address stating the problem instead of posting not-so-serious sounding messages on our yahoo group. This way I would have stopped sending those mails earlier. Forgive me for all the trouble I have given you.
And regarding your earlier posting in your blog about me, I would like to say that you should be more mindful of what you write about somebody. You know I am not all that bad. Deep, if you cannot write anything sensible about me, please refrain from writing about me at all.

Really yours truly,
Sameer.

A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men.

The year that was

I'm wearing a rather striking shirt, one that makes me feel like a clown fooling around in a graveyard. Roving eyes latch on to me and make me too conscious of myself. Checkered in red, grey, black and maroon, I've excused myself into donning it and looking silly for two reasons. It's Friday and…more importantly, the last working day of the year. Tailored half-a-year back, I never had the courage to wear it, not until today. It's that time of the year when it's time to reflect on the events that transpired. Last year ended on the worst possible note. Dad had expired and I was numb with shock. The repercussions rippled halfway thought this year. Things were so abysmal initially that I had lost the will to live. Acrid in everything I did, I was immensely angered by time phlegmatically flowing through its cadence. It was as if Dad meant nothing to anybody. What right did people have to live the way they always had when Dad was no more? Why was much of the world still
