The special season...

Babetude is May Day born. This year it was made special by lots of wishes on social media and meeting a beautiful aunt born on the same day. Then she met two other gentleman, one from the US and the other from Delhi. The day was spent thanks to a dear loved one in the peaceful island of Tobago with prayers, peace and good food. The flowers came from NYC from a lady well wisher. She loves her bird like a child and has got another one too now. The pics are adorable Hoped and prayed for better days. Will keep trying too. May will remain a special month. It would be good to have a May born, preferably child by God's grace.An incredibly success story was born in the Taurean zone too. Good to know that. Actually Babetude has blogged less because she's been busy with her first book followed by short stories. She's doing well, but there' still a long way to go. By God's grace.

April Blues...

Babetude remembered this young, bubbly actress who went away soon in April of 1993 when she was a little girl. And wanted to do a post in honor of the old acquaintance on April 5... Easter gave some hope of new life. But then in April 2012, another very bad news from B'wood hit her and hurt her. The person concerned wasn't related, not even known, but when one is humane it hurts. This shocked many, it was so bad. Babetude couldn't bring herself to even talk about it. People tend to remember these sad events or tragedies in other's lives only for a while. Such seems to be life. Sad... But hopes for justice are always there.Justice should happen more in the world. Amen.

Happy Birthday to the Venus of Indian cinema...




जन्मदिन मुबारक मधु बाला
सालगिरह की हार्दिक शुभकामनायें


14th February was the day, the one who was christened the Venus of Indian cinema was born. Yes, Madhu Bala was born on the day that celebrates love though it was not celebrated India during those days.

Her beauty and acting skills were immense but her life was tragic. She still lives in the hearts of many fans, well-wishers and rule their hearts.

As a recap, here's Babetude's tribute to this ethereal beauty who got her looks as a gift from nature,unlike most showbiz woman of today...Some are right when they say- God doesn't make her kind any more!

Happy Indian Republic Day

"No society can possibly be built on a denial of individual freedom."
Gandhiji

Happy Indian Republic Day to all Indians and those who live outside of the country like myself.

May the country uphold more values such peace, prosperity, justice, equality et al.


Do check Babetude's very tribute to the true heroes from last year...

An appropriate poem for a day like this---
Where The Mind Is Without Fear
by Rabindranath Tagore
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way
Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit
Where the mind is led forward by thee
Into ever-widening thought and action
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
