It's all about trust honey!!!

I may not distrust too..but can there be anything in between?....strange....but then, is trust built? or does it just happen?....like few say love happens....for me love is not an instant feeling...it grows..so should trust be like that?...grow overtime?.....donno....too many conflicting thoughts, too less a time to analyze....so why think n waste time:).....

Happy Sankranti 2010.....our rangoli....

My friend Antara and I made this rangoli...I have been making rangoli from childhood, a telugu tradition..but for my friend, a bengali, this was the first time:). She was pretty excited.. The night before sankranti, we googled for a nice design that was interesting as well as easy to make....finally we got this large size one and I improvised it when we made this. ..we used yellow, orange, maroon, pink, and green to make these...and it took us around 4 hours to complete this...It felt pretty nice to be doing it...and Antara loved it too...:)...
