The Goddess of Learning

A sincerely sung vandana rewarded with a motichoor laddoo at school. Yellow clothes. Wishful, wistful genda phool stolen from Saraswati's white feet and tucked into the Maths textbook. The advent of final exams and this big chance to seek divine intervention.

My textbooks today? My computer. The Chicago Manual of Style. The Illustrated Oxford Dictionary. The window near my desk. The rusting piece of lettuce in my fridge. E-mails from my parents. Marriage. And my reflection.

Here's a virtual genda phool for all of them. May reality always be as multi-layered and may it always look just this pretty. And may it be a capsule for memories when it dries up and grows old.
