I love taking the walks alone too. One of the craziest things I like about walking is that I like walking through the maddening crowd. Watching people, life and it's busyness. I like walking the quiet places too, but can't imagine any place without at least a couple of people. Walking is such a great stress-buster.<BR/><BR/>And I like your observation: Wherever we live; there must be two kinds of places. So very true!<BR/><BR/>By the way, those pics really nice. I'm sure it would be very nice to have a walk alongside there.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17511337418824516211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17462040.post-72872845127553685512008-06-13T22:41:00.000+01:002008-06-13T22:41:00.000+01:00How are you?

I hope your mom is back to normal and doing well and it was nice knowing about your meeting with old friends and teachers. some pics would be fine if you’re to share the moment :) a break from routine and a change for mind will encourage our life to make it interest , I love being alone in someplace where nature exist more. take care and happy times for u and family.Jeevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14063201530500784222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17462040.post-33192801944276465232008-05-05T06:51:00.000+01:002008-05-05T06:51:00.000+01:00Balaji,Glad to know that Mom is doing fine.I think...Balaji,<BR/><BR/>Glad to know that Mom is doing fine.<BR/><BR/>I think it the mid-life crisis that makes us wonder what life it.<BR/><BR/>True, it's becoming more hectic. There is no doubt. <BR/><BR/>Time to sit back and enjoy! Time to relax...( is it possible? )<BR/><BR/>I remember the good old days without Internet...without all these worries. Not sure what went wrong...suddenly..looks like everything is mechanical.<BR/><BR/>Nice photos..especially the first one...very crisp.Narayanan Venkituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17755584455282379863noreply@blogger.com
