I started this blog to capture the memoirs of my grandmother.She handed me this old, worn diary from the past eighty decades with the hope that I would somehow translate the pages, continue the story, and share it with our family.

Dear Dan, this is the most valuable gift to Doshamama. Avinash has been keying in some of her poems and sending across to all of us. Both of you deserve congratulations for the happiness you bring to her - something which she surely will appreciate. We too get a better glimpse to her life and struggles in facing the challenges, that we - the next generation posed in front of her with our own behaviour and utterings.....
