I wait in peace...

The morning breaks,
And warm and bright
The earth lies still
In the golden light--
For Dawn has scattered the clouds of night.

God's handiwork
Is seen around,
Things great and small
To His praise abound--
Where are the signs of His love not found?

All things must pass,
But God shall still
With steadfast power
His will fulfil--
Sure and unshaken is His will.

His saving grace
Will never fail,
Though grief and fear
The heart assail--
O'er life's wild seas He will prevail.

Joy shall be ours
In that garden blest,
Where after storm
We find our rest--
I wait in peace--God's time is best.

"Shall I begin at the verse that grandmother
says gives her a feeling of hope and confidence?"

The doctor nodded his assent, and Heidi began,--

Let not your heart be troubled
Nor fear your soul dismay,
There is a wise Defender
And He will be your stay.
Where you have failed, He conquers,
See, how the foeman flies!
And all your tribulation
Is turned to glad surprise.

If for a while it seemeth
His mercy is withdrawn,
That He no longer careth
For His wandering child forlorn,
Doubt not His great compassion,
His love can never tire,
To those who wait in patience
He gives their heart's desire.

.....................................................

All things will work for good
To those who trust in Me;
I come with healing on my wings,
To save and set thee free...

Happy New Year 2006!

Wish you and your family a very happy, fun-filled, safe, successful, prosperous, healthy and fruitful year ahead!

May your dreams and wishes come true!!

God Bless!

Chn-Ban-Chn-Try meet!

Had gala time during a meet at my home jus for fun on a weekend and decided on a trip to banglore to meet Akshay. We had a very nice time at home. It was last OI meet for Deeps. So went out to dine at Olive. Lavan gave a banging entry by breaking a plate. The real fun at dinner was Sudh ordering for some italian dish and relishing it in his own style :P.

On 23rd, The Night came and we atlast! boarded the bus comfortably and reached blore on 24th Morning. It was very sweet of Kris and Aks to receive us from Bus-stand. Refreshed ourselves and went for breakfast at a place called Dwaraka. Was a nice place. Tsunamiya too joined us for breakfast.

Lavan went off to meet one of her friend at Forum, while me,smri and sun went out for some shopping. On the way ate "Death By Chocolate" at Corner house. Was simply awesome!!! One should never miss to eat that when they go to Blore.
In the afternoon went to La Casa where Chetna, K7 and one other guy also joined us. It was a funny place.. took some "Interesting" snaps there.

Had a chat session at Kris house and later went to place called Chocolate for evening Tea. Was a pretty decent place and had very good fun there. Finally boarded another bus and reached Chennai on Christmas morning! Was a real nice trip and enjoyed a lot!!

Evening met Prasan at Woodlands drive-in. Was really excited to meet him. We were surprised to see him sooooo silent in the meet. Met Mayur,Smri, Lavan, Prasan, Badree, Parth, Sudh and Mithi. Mayur was too sweet in taking me to Sri Krishna Bavan to get some sweets for my brother. Then left her at her home and had a small chat with her. From there went to Deeps house to bid him Bon voyage. He was to leave to US that night.

Rushed back home with lavan to pack up things and leave for Trichy. Went to Koyembedu bus terminus at 10.30pm and found a bus waiting for us! Luckly got two very comfortable seat and went off to sleep. Lavan dozed off immdly. Reached Trichy at 7.15am. Caught an auto and reached Ashas palace. Had breakfast and went to Srirangam. Had a wonderful darshan. Next went to "Thiruvanaikaaval", "UthamarKovil" and "Gunaseelam". On the way back home, went to some Dam. Had real fun there. Took so many snaps and reached home bit late for lunch. Had a small nap and evening to Uchi Pillayar kovil, did some minor shopping, went to Ashas grannys house and their theater. Reached back to Ashas Palace, took snaps with their mega size Chirstmas tree.. had dinner and rushed back to bus stand and boarded a Viedo coach :D. It started with "Iyengaaru veetu azhage!!!" what a lovely song :P

Reached chennai at around 7.15am and hurriedly got ready to go to ofis!
