Another year gone by.............

Yes, another year has gone by without a post....not trying to condone it, but there was a good reason (more of that later)!

However, to sum up......there were the usual activities that add to the USP of Delhi----music programs, heritage walks, talks, fairs...plus the usual political events that take on added significance in the capital of the country.  There are some events that we look forward to every year: the Mughul gardens which are open to the public for a month from 15th February and the Garden Tourism festival----both a celebration of the brief spring, and 2015 was no different. There were also the usual  events as diverse as the Street food festival and Life Positive mela!

At a personal level, it was a mixed year. We made a couple of trips to a favorite destination in the foothills of the Himalayas, and at home enjoyed the company of our canine family (Brownie and her son Blackie) while also mourning Dennis, who was literally killed in Nov'14 by a so called educated senior citizen, an avid dog hater. RIP Dennis, who has finally found peace, after being abandoned by a family who chose pedigree Beagles over him. It was their loss, and our gain, as he walked down the road and adopted us! Dennis enriched us in more ways than one, but most importantly, propelled me to taking pranic healing courses (the reason for the long sabbatical from all forms of writing) specially after we found an animal healer online.

This year I hope to post regularly on events and experiences.....specially for Betty, who has always been encouraging and kind enough to say that she misses hearing about them!
