My first birthday without either parent. Feels quite strange.

For the last two years I had been with Amma here in India, and she had been able to wish me, even though in Dec 2005 she was so weak she was having difficulty writing.


I found one of her hand-painted cards, and would like to think she would have given it to me with birthday wishes this year.


It was incredibly sweet of Aniruddh's mother to gift me her fabric painting of Ganesh last week, perhaps the best gift I could have had.
