August 15 @ Kamats

Two years ago on August 15, my father's book 'Return Journey' (cover, my review) was released. On way to his book release function, Bappa had photographed school children in a small village observing India's Independence Day, and written a wonderful letter to me on how inspiring the day had been -- kids belonging to various castes, creeds, religions, and tribes, celebrating a nation's liberation, also reminiscing August 15, 1947, the actual day India had become free. One of these days I must find the letter and re-read it...

It was on a August 15th that I arrived in America (in 1990, for graduate studies in Computer Science).

Every year on August 15, I donate blood.
