It looks like there is no escape from the new tag game and I have been tagged by spk100.
Please continue the game:
8 things i am passionate about:
- Reading – right from my childhood, I devoured everything in print. This, however, did not extend to my text books. Whatever time I can spare, goes into poring over magazines and books.
- Music – I am very conventional about my choice of music. It is only the golden oldies and classical (western or Indian) for me.
- My house – Call me a cleanliness freak but I must have everything in order especially the bathroom.
- My family – I am willing to sacrifice everything for my loved ones. Quitting a well paying job was just one of them.
- My country – I am a true Indian in my thoughts, and feelings. I can’t imagine living in another country. Visits are fine but settling down is another matter.
- Nature – I love nature. Nothing comes close to being lost in the wilderness.
- Animals – I can spend hours talking to cats and dogs and enjoy watching their antics.
8.Travel – travelling to new places is a passion I can’t ignore. I must have been a gypsy in my last birth.
8 things I want to do before I die (in no particular order)
1. Travel the world.
2. Have a great library at home
3. Spend time luxuriating in lush green settings with no clocks and mobiles in vicinity.
4. Write my memoirs
5. Hold my grandchild in my arms.
6. Start an old age home.

I really don’t have any particular words I use repetitively, except maybe –
1.Great
2. Shit
3. Perfect
4. Damn

These are the two things I like about this tag game....first is about the dreams....second about the true self. Somethngs are common but don't want to name them.
enjoyed the post for its simplicity and authenticity.

Dear Tanushri,
Some of your 8s find an echo in me. Your quest for spiritual enrichment prompted me to write this mail. Wonder if you read about my workshops! If any of the topics interests you, do let me know.
In love and light,
Chitra
