HE Final Episode

Dear Sridhar,

Thanks for the excellent FB.

True, Lalitha. Not only people here are open and different. They also shower love on me as if I were a member of their family. In Mahakavi Kalidas there is a song, "kuzhandhaiyin kodukal oviyama?". Since I am considered a child of the family, my "lines" are considered as a drawing, an art form.

Sridhar, honestly you have become a part of my family and I feel you as a very close friend also. My mil is so surprised that now I rattle tamil writers names hitherto not in my book at all. My little one knows you, cheeniya, chitvish, krishnamma, ac etc. If I open the system, she will start commenting "what amma you are talking to Varalotti or Chitvish?" Showering love as if a member of the family is not correct you are already member of so many families here.

Our prayers are always with you & your family.......No doubts please.

You are right, Malathy. We should be grateful to Malathy-Jey for providing us such a wonderful forum to meet and discuss.

You know something? Thanks to my meticulous time management I could save save an hour or so today. I had a million projects vying for my attention. But I ignored them all and started reading the manuscript for my spiritual book. I had given the title, "Kadhaludan Kadavulukku". My publisher might choose "Ethanai Kodi Inbam Vaithai Iraiva..." or "Kadaalaki Kasinduruki"

You know for a mother all her children are good. You might have heard the saying Kakkaikkum Than Kunju Pon Kunju.... Well I found the manuscript good. The book deals with a serious matter - our love for God and His love for us. I have interspersed the chapters with my short stories. Only those short stories which talk of God's love or love for our fellow beings. Even after two years, it still looks fresh.

But let me wait and see.

thanks once again for all those words.
regards,

Dear, dear Lalitha,
I thought I was the one who can make people cry with my words. And you paid me in my own coin. You made me cry with your words of affection.
Yes, what you say is true. We are a family.
love,

The title which you suggested seems more apt for a short story or novel. It may mislead readers to thinking so. May be that is why the publisher wanted to change it. But certainly, the title should be the first one to draw a would-be reader's attention.(At least, I first go by the title! Next , I look up at the back cover. If that impresses me too then I go to the foreword and the heading given for each chapter. If I find that what I am looking for is there, then I go for the book!).
Some how I find the publisher's two titles quite impressive when I am looking for a book on spirituality.Whatever the title of the book, I have added it to my book watch list! Though I have not been able to read all the books I purchased in this years book fair, certainly I will be reading each and every one of them some time at my leisure. I am not able to read spiritual books when I am worked up with lots of pending work. I am not able to concentrate well. So I prefer stories and magazines like Tuglak , India Today and Outlook for bed time reading!
Wishing you all success once again,
Warm Regards,
Malathi
P.S- Please let me know when the book is published.

Dear Sridhar

That was an excellent finish. I really loved the ending. I already feel the presence of an PRIYAM next door. Swamiji's quote on naturopathy to technology was really a good piece to read. Thanks to you for delivering such a good piece.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading every piece of it. Infact as malathy madam said i have made a binder so i can enjoy reading it after a while.

Thanks Sridhar

Dear Vidya,
Thanks. People use to say that it is difficult to write or paint when someone is peering over your shoulders. But with a few thousands of wonderful women looking over my shoulders actually I was able to write better than what I could have done otherwise.

I am very happy you enjoyed the episode and the story, Vidya.
Thanks once again for the kind words,
regards,

I don't know if you will believe me, but I read this entire tale in one go. I hadn't realized how long it really was when I had taken the decision to read it whole. So, it took me the better part of the morning and a part of the afternoon to finish it. It is a nice story, it has a peaceful and quiet message at the end. And I am leaving with a sense of fulfilment. I don't want to say anymore, because clearly a writer has put a lot more into the composition than what a first reading reveals to the visitor. But if your objective wast to reveal the nature of love, as the Curtain Raiser made me believe, then you have definitely achieved it.

I wish you all the best.

Dear Ojantrik,
You made my day with your words. My God! You spent a morning and afternoon for my story! I am moved! May I be made worthy of that, Ojantrik.To be appreciated by a better writer is any writer's dream. It came true for me today.
love,
sridhar
