We are on the positive side of zero if you know what I mean (as if there is a positive and negative side of zero).I mean we are back to a zero balance in the bank. Appu says this is the state of equilibrium for us. We are most comfortable and stable with a zero … Continue reading »

Staying on the earth

Posted on 16/02/2011 by Aparna.Burjwal

Shikha and Mehtaab are leaving for Sagar today to deliver the work of Nagaur and Uniyara. Amazing. The work is needed and Silakari has agreed to release a part payment. It will not cover the entire limit picked up from the bank for this job but at least the interest liability will decrease. The Gurgaon … Continue reading »

For today

Posted on 02/02/2011 by Aparna.Burjwal

Silakari of Aakar Consultants refuses to pay us. Refuses to take our calls. The last Shiva spoke to him, he wanted us to fax a letter stating (begging) that we need a part payment. The poverty in the minds of people amazes me. We have finished the work. It has been gruelling to collect the … Continue reading »

Drama. Again. Mr. Silakari of Aakar Consultants is not willing to release our payment. Somewhere he knows that the client, STP Ajmer is not clear about the specifications and that there weill be countless trips to Ajmer and repeated editing which he himself will not be able to handle. And since we have made the … Continue reading »

All that matters

Posted on 23/12/2010 by Aparna.Burjwal

Many times I am tempted to compare my life with that of others. My ‘insides’ with the ‘outsides’ of others. And I have to remind myself that each ones’ race is different. Each ones’ journey is unique and each ones’ starting point is also different. And that any comparison is uselss and baseless. No crisis … Continue reading »

Unmanageability,yet again

Posted on 05/12/2010 by Aparna.Burjwal

Long back when I was trying to pick up a loan from Dena bank and it had been sanctioned by the head office, the branch manager asked me, ‘what is your problem?’ ‘Why can’t you be happy at home?’ I mean that for me epitomises the context in which ‘women’ ( the so called weaker … Continue reading »

A fragmented soul

And the night has been too long. Hopefully, dawn is not far away. A lot has been lost along the way. There is no doubt about it. Whether it has been worth it, is yet to be established. I was in the bank for more than two hours today. The usual drill. Where did the … Continue reading »

Hanging between time and money

Posted on 27/09/2010 by Aparna.Burjwal

The pressure is building up and the next two days are going to be very critical. The bank is being very agressive due to the impending closing (September 30) as also because the TOD taken for the ‘Yashi project’ still stands uncleared. The front of the car is all mangled and there is a huge … Continue reading »
