why horla?

I have always been fascinated by fiction and abstract thinking. It takes us into unformed territories which unfold and take the shape of whatever WE think and thats just one brilliant aspect of life. And I came accross Guy de Maupassant's story which sort of shows how very complicated it can be to discern between the real and the unreal once the mind gets stimulated and neurons get excited and sensations are ready to explore just about everything.
And thats how Horla took over the life of its victims...
Its said that being anonymous gives u infinite power, and i aggree...and since this subject gives me loads to think about...hence the blog's title.

Will keep on updating this post for more on my own take on abstract thinking and fiction and sometimes on more 'real' stuff...all discussions and posts are welcome!

crochet ruffle skirt for one year old

Took a sabbatical from professional life and turned to things that stimulate endorphins..... crochet being one of them. Ordered yarn and hooks and started making articles that make me happy. This blog is for those like me that spend hours on browsing patterns to decide what to make with the sheer purpose of learning new techniques and unfolding the magic of making something beautiful from a scratch.  The first pattern I am going to share is a cute ruffle skirt I made for my one year old niece.  The pattern is explained in detail in the video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFm4AlHuoqE I just added one row of slip stitch using red colour as contrast to bring out the ruffles. I used anchor mercerized knitting cotton and 3mm crochet hook. The yarn is available online at  ponycraftstore  and  pradhan embroidery store . Do post your own creations and valuable comments!! Happy crocheting!

getting euphoric about 'euphoria'

This post is dedicated to the band euphoria. And yes, their music succeeds in creating 'the' euphoria' feeling in me. Their compositions are very close to my heart, and one of my earliest memories of getting more connected to music is with dhoom pichak dhoom and maeri. Since their music has such a strong influence on me and blissfully i have something that i can hear which immediately uplifts my mood and wants me to just have fun being myself, i guess i ought to put it up on my blog.(who knows one day one of the band members might actually come across this:D)(fingers crossed) One great thing which i like about their songs is that it seems to come straight from within. The mood of the song speaks for itself. It all seems very natural. And here are some of the tracks i love listening to (and in my to do list, will one day learn to play them too:D) 1) Starting obviously with dhoom pichak dhoom. Its just awesome and sacred and needs no description. 2)Maeri. I loved this...

Dreams...

Dreams are another exciting feature of life...we might have done without them but we are gifted with the power of dreaming and i am really thankful for having this luxury to avail:) When we are too rigid about our approach , and see the world as we are INSTRUCTED to see...dreams are our friend(s), philospher(s) and guide(s).. They have this huge advantage of connecting all that has any trace of a common link...something we are not able to see with open eyes. All the sensations we have are also assimilated together to produce an entirely new sensation. And they are our own personal space. I sometimes picture them as shadows of ourselves as we are ...indulging us in unexplored and sometimes impossible(like elephants flying in the sky) but always amusing realms. Sometimes they mock us like our friends do (like dreaming abt ur lover stroking ur hand while ur blanket brushes past your hand, or dreaming about your favourite music icon singing for you while actually someone has just turne...
