I am afraid I am losing my “Identity” as my Thamizh writing skills have deteriorated badly in the last decade. I was trying to write something yesterday but was shocked when I paused wondering which ‘ra’ to use for that word ‘ninaikkiren’.

Loads of articles on diverse topics fills IndiaNest.com. So many people want to write and just want to be read. I wish we have more than 24 hours a day to read of all this.

Wool of the man
Covering heart and mind
Hard to let it out
But soul permeates beyond anything
