Oru Naal Oru Pozhudu from Anthi Manthaarai

Saturday. Household duties inspire me. They spark and spur more, today, the first of the two rest days given. Managed to do a whole lot of stuff since morning. Cleaned up the house - the kitchen (both, dry and wet) to be exact. Gardened. Watered the plants and sowed the revered Thulasi plant. Settled the laundry. And, also made a caramel pudding, which will be served during tea. Phew!!!!!

We need 4 hugs a day for survival. We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. We need 12 hugs a day for growth -Virginia Satir, family therapist-

Hahaha. This came from an article I read. Cannot stop laughing. That is a whole lot of hugs. 24, all. Which makes it a hug every hour - average.  The author ends his article with these words, "It only takes a hug, a heartfelt and warm embrace, to change the lives of others. Try it, it works....." Simple, but altering.....
And, hugging actually benefits, by reducing heart disease, diminishing stress, promoting longevity, strengthening social ties, lowering blood pressure, lowering heart rate and benefiting the hugger and the huggee equally. Cool, isn't it ? 
Why all this brouhaha over hugging????? Shalu - smiling sheepishly..... Go figure.
Iman Annachi's program on Adithya Channel will begin in another half an hour or so. I love the way he handles the audience. How he keeps a straight face in the funniest situation. It has since become my favourite show. 
This song is a beautiful masterpiece by ARR. Mind blowing lyrics which begin with the awesome, "ஒரு நாள் ஒரு பொழுது உன் மூஞ்சி காண்காமா உசுரு அல்லாடுதே...." This is what I will call my semma situation song.
Go have a great week ahead.....
Take care. God Bless.
