Because you were busy struggling with life , or because perhaps you were an alcoholic like me when you had children , but the bottle took away most of your time away from your children your home and your wife..God seeing your repentance and the way you reformed your life like I have done gifted you another chance for making up , he gave your grown up kids children and enlightened your soul as a grand parent .. bought back the moments you had missed , the neglect of your doting daughter , the many Moharams , that you did not take your sons , all these and many moments that are completely sad and irretrievable .so a poets god who is not a god of fire and brimstone and a father of the Universe ..gave you new words for your poem ..for the birth of your grand child..

So sometimes a strangers picture shot at Bandra Bazar Road can trigger a tearful response to lifes innumerable mistakes ...and here a picture takes an about turn , it becomes a sculpted soul of a blog...hidden beneath a layer of street photography.
