At My Desk



"Never it was this cold", was the SMS I received from my son, who is in London on an official work. Sitting in Delhi, I once agree with him, because Delhi may have seen the worst winters before, but I remember one winter during my visit to Delhi way back in 1973 January. I was living in a camp under tents in a vast open area. Icy winds blowing to make our life miserable. I slept in my uniform, fearing the freeze over night and sleeping under the thick layers of many blankets.

But as I recall that January 1973, I still brace myself to the chill with in the four walls of my home. This is global freezing for you right now.

  1. Nicely written. We all have experiences like this. But yes, this year the winter is bad or should I say good?
