About the fit

We are always beating ourselves up about whether we are the best at this or that or not. I always do. But today as I was thinking of someone for a certain role I considered someone who I never thought very highly of. However it's some culmination of characters in the person that made them perfect for the role. Made me realize that no matter how imperfect we may feel in the various shoes we try to fit into, it's the core of what makes us that's so precious to all those that love us in the roles we play in their lives.

R2I update

We finally got our USC interview letter on Friday. DH and I have it scheduled for the same time on the 12th of Dec. So, that's one thing that can be checked off very soon. The house is still on the market with practiclaly no showings. If nothing works out in the next month or so, we might take it off the market and put it back on in March. DH and I talked over the weekend about plan B, incase the house doesn't get sold by May. Nothing to panick yet. My dad has been looking into some schools in Hyd and will be getting the applications in Nov-dec timeframe, so, he's on top of it. It's a luxury to offload some of our responsibility to others in the family. All this time, DH and I used to take care of every single thing in life, from schools to biils to vacations, what else could you do, right! Ofcourse it's a very fulfilling experience, but I think we'll enjoy taking help from the family when we move back. More later...

A mid summer quencher

Under grey skies speckled with a slight drizzle, weaving through the tree lined apartment buildings, watching street vendors pushing their colorful fresh vegetable carts through and the occasional aunty and uncle sipping coffee in the balcony with newapapers in their hands - loved the morning auto ride in the city. Thirsty Hyderabad, in the middle of it's sweltering summer seems to have gotten a good drink last night.

One step for space X and a giant leap for our future generation

What a momentous day! Elon Musk has once again persevered, proved his mettle. Since I've recently finished reading his biography, my respect for him has just increased that much. Like Steve Jobs said - "people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do." All the innovations he's made - the all electric car, tapping solar energy, economic space travel - are inching towards the sustainability of our future generations. I feel pity when I see people amassing wealth, properties for their children and grand children, while hoarding plastic bags from vendors, trashing plastic bottles, washing their precious cars in flowing water jets, wasting food....plundering the earth and hence the very basis of the existence of these generations. Cannot fathom the insensitivity of these people. More on this ranting later.
