India Celebrates its 64th Independence day

Celebrating our 64th Independence day and 63 years of democracy, I take this opportunity to share a few articles on the design enthusiast. First, about the Flag itself. source: wiki

It was quite saddening to watch a program on TV where the anchor was interviewing people and many of them could not answer a few basic question about the flag, and the country in general. None of them knew that the flag was designed by - Pingali Venkayya. (ok, ok...I know we cannot generalize) Is it too much to expect from Indian citizens that they know more about their nation? I know of instances where people mentioned "Vande Mataram " to be our national anthem (leave alone knowing anything about the national animal, flower or the bird.) We can do a lot better than this. 

Jai hind!

My Friend Ganesha

I dedicate this post to Preethi, the young lady behind "KALEIDOSCOPE".

She is a very dear friend and a wonderful person. I am glad to have met her on the blogosphere. She was the first to follow The Design Enthusiast and has encouraged me to continue updating this blog. She extended her love by sending me a special gift.

This Ganesha !!!

Isnt he the best!!! He looks wonderful and looks so comfortable doing his Riyaaz on my plant stand. (He seems to love the money plant a lot!!)

Thank you Preethi, for being the wonderful person that you are!!
