I love looking at where my visitors are coming from, what they like to read and what they search for when they come looking. From the straightforward “lakshmusings” to “men wearing pattu paavadai” or “dance in the rain” […]
Rupa of Random Musings believes Musings is all about being a good spot to chat. A place that fosters communication and allows for free expression of thought. Well! She didn’t exactly say so in that many words but that is what I would like to make of the award she has presented me with. Thanks […]
