A morning ride.

Today we went for a small ride which was to entertain the new joiners in ecoRiders( the bicycle club in Logica.) on the way I found a wounded snake. This is the first time in my life I have helped a snake. I lifted it by its tail and placed it near a bush in the road side. It was a nice feeling.

Cycling in early moorings’ is fun. I always feel if I were free enough to ride an extra mile. But to a married man there are limitations. You cannot be away for long as your child will miss you and would start crying. So need to reach home before it get wourse.

Wonderful people, Blinds

I was in front of Divakers hospital, Jayanagar, parking my car in the road side. I was taking my child Claire to hospital as there was some pus formation in her ears. I saw some of the students of Samarthanam (blinds) walking by the road holding each others hand.

When they reached me I asked them where they were going. I saw one of them smiling, and she said we are going to Samarthanam office. Then I asked do you know me?
To my and my wife’s surprise, one of them said, Joe uncle !
They played with my child for some time and invited me to there office nearby. I asked for excuse and left.
It’s been a month I met them in Logica. Still they remember me by name, and recognized me by my voice. Sad part is that I could see them but still I do not remember there names.
