Back again with the intention to post here what goes through my little head which is enlarged right now because of the WFH, lockdown, home cooking, no time to excercise excuse. We eat healthy all week and then 1-2 dinners we indulge in fried chicken, chicken biryani, fried fish, potato wedges.... fried fried fried with mayo, cheese slices, butter and icecreams and coke. We relish them. And with a movie or web series, Ricky, Bittu and I have a wonderful dinner by recreating a KFC or mall experience! Never been a conscious foodie. All I care about is well cooked tasty food and most importantly hygienic food. It is very hard to ignore the unclean tables or cutlery, forget roadside food.
Back again to promise myself that I will write regularly. I should stop calling it "back again", "here I go again", "time flies" or "long time". It is all about perspective. A person who reads the blog does not care whether you are back or not. It is one read after another whichever month or year it is written in.
Talking about perspective, my first OWN observation was about the words we use. We all know that Sun is stationary, all other planets and celestial objects go around it. Then why do we say these:
- The sun rises in the East and the sun sets in the West (in all languages I know)
- The sun is on your head at noon (as said in Hindi).
Perspective! I will share some gyaan here about perception of TIME: While we look forward to future and look back at past, for Greek people it is the other way. They can see the past (visible) which is in front of them and the future is behind them, which is invisible. To put it in simple words, we travel through time and for them time travels as they remain still. Hmm...
Okay, then, that's it for today.
