Monsoons

I love the monsoons.

Not because they provide a respite from the sveltering heat or because I was born in the monsoons but also because it also throws your health out of gear to enjoy a day off from work once in a while to sit and blog!!!!!!!!

And then there is a rainy day concept! Whenever there is a fear of my city getting deluged, the best thing that the authorities and the so called administrators of the city can do is to advise people to not to get out of homes!!!!!!!! Am I surprised that none of the official warnings come out in the name of any political leader!

Or is it just a coincidence that none of major political outcries and hullabaloos are created in the season of monsoons? Monsoons provide a respite from politicians too in my city! But it is the police force and the municipal commissioners which are at the receiving end.. It is the busiest season for them…..Poor folks! Terrorists and drainage not only physically drain them, they are also at the receiving end of all the flak received for mismanagement…..I sympathise with them wholeheartedly.

Nonetheless I still love the monsoons….the sound of lightening, the tip tap of falling raindrops,

The greenery around, chai and pakodas!!!!!!!! And then the bhuttas round the corners…..it’s a season to indulge……
