Hello, I am back again!

It's been a long while since i took time off my 'sweet blogger abode'. Now I am back again. Maybe hopefully i will try and keep you posted about what's going on in this seesaw like game called life. Sometimes you are up, at times you are down.

The world is never the same again and i don't expect it to be. It will keep changing. everyday. As long as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

In this span of three or so months, in retrospect, among those memorable events that happened, a particular mention may be made, the killing of the Kasom Khullen SDO Dr. Thingnam Kishan Singh along with his two subordinates by some hoodlums of NSCN-IM group. It was a heart wrenching moment for me in particular. And the general Manipuri Public felt the same pain of anguish of losing a rare gem from the 'soil of jewels'. And even after three months of the heinous crime, the government and concerned authority has failed to deliver the appropriate justice. It's the sorry state of affairs in the remote state called Manipur where there is a serious drought of justice going on presently.

We also saw the Lok Sabha elections being held across the country, india and the UPA government under the leadership of UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi and PM Manmohan Singh got re-elected to run the country for another five year term.

Looking at the whole worldwide, the common thread that runs across the globe is the phenomenon called recession. there isn't a part of the world that's not attacked by this monster. The whole world is reeling under its spell. Many companies laid off employees, the joblessness is rising every other day on a worldwide basis. it's a cruel economy out there. being in the financial market space, i know the extent at which it has devastated the lives and the world economies globally. Many analysts predict this downturn may not recover even into the first quarter of 2010.

And the recent demise of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, due to his untimely heart attack can be mentioned. Even if I do not know much about this guy, seeing the global phenomenon that's happening around him after his demise says a lot about this man.

On the public memorial for MJ on Tuesday, the late pop star's 11 year old daughter, Paris Jackson says it all when she says with full of tears in her eyes, 'Ever since I was born, daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine. And I just want to say that I love him so much'.

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years - Abrahan Lincoln
