In a place like Mumbai, this happens everyday, with a twist in the tale, the stalker is ignored..

The sub-conscious mind awakens us from the hotchpoth thoughts and protects us from those tears which are going to flow forever. She listened to herself and gathered her present and secured her future.

Hi Devika,

Great piece of writing......true , that i too felt all the emotions flitting thru Jaanu.....and what an apt title, The Stalker.....enjoyed your style of writing very much. It was very feminine and you brought out the reality of life so well......was i glad that she ran from there before she gave in to temptation!

I wish everyone can listen to their sub conscious at such times, will definitely save us from a lot of upsets in life!

Great job, keep penning , you are a great writer!

Dear Sudha,

Thanks for the words of appreciation.I am glad you enjoyed reading it . This is a very patent topic these days and there is an alarming increase in the number of cases of infidelity , so thought it apt to write a story relating to it.

Regards,


Devika

Devika,
Nice outpouring of your ideas in your own way.

In my younger years, I used to think, 'does everybody have this inner voice', which later on in my life I came to know that it is called 'conscience or sub-conscience'.

Dearest Lata,

Thankyou so much for the wonderful words of appreciation.
You dont have to worry ,you already have such a wonderful conscience what with your idea of celebrating the IL anniversary in an orphanage. I am very touched by your great gesture. Hope you guys have a great time!!

Regards,

Devika

Dear Srini,

Thankyou so much for writing in. Yes we each one of us have a inner voice , a conscience which helps us to lead a life where the mind is without fear and the head is held high!

Regards,

Devika

Dear Devika,

Your title inspired me to read this. It was really worth it. You should really take the advice of Cheeniya sir seriously. You have really got a very good gift....please make good use of it.

I just cant believe that there is such a gifted writer in you. You bring out the emotions of your characters as vividly as if we feel them ourselves. I am certainly of the view that you should take up writing very seriously. I can see that you will be creating waves in the near future. I suggest that you seek guidance from seasoned professional writers like Varalotti in IL to polish your rough edges, not that there are any
The stalker made be dumbfounded. I agree with you it is our conscious that always guides us when we are at the cross roads and have to take an important decision in life.

Dear Lalitha,

Thankyou for your kind words of appreciation. Each and every word coming from the reader means a lot to me . You are very right . Our conscience always comes to our aid to ease out our dilemmas in life , but we need to seriously listen to it.
Thankyou very much once again.

Love,
Devika
