Madhavikutty

Aami..Madhavikutty..Kamala Das..Kamala Surayya..Known widely by these names,I prefer to address her as Malayalee's own Madhavikutty.One beautiful,strong and determined woman,she has inspired me a lot.Her unexpected demise made me break into tears.I felt a sudden numbness all over my body.Eventhough I had only read one book of hers,her personality plus writing style was something I adored.I did not move my eyes from the television screen in which most channels reported about her and telecasted some old interviews.I sat there and wondered what her soul would be doing then.Where would it be?I then felt jealous of her beauty which was so natural even at her old age.Now recalling the stories of her I read,which mentioned Naalappattu tharavaad,her ammamma,the village and even Calcutta and the school there,I wish I too lived during that time,when the world was just so different and a lot more peaceful.Now she comes in my mind more often,so I have decided to start reading s ome books of hers.

My first post

Even though I have had this account for long,its only today that I made up my mind that I should start posting.During this rainy season when I think back to my past,I wonder..what will happen to all my memories?The happiness,the sorrows,the frustration I faced..everything..I need to share it with the world.Once born,all should be ready to face death at any moment..I can never agree to the saying "Memories lasts forever".What will happen to all my memories once I'm dead?In this world,even the deadly Alzheimer's sweeps off our memories.So,while writing this,I want to share my life,my opinions & culture with the people around the world..If not,simply to write away everything and hoping that it would be read once by someone,somewhere..
