    :hello:Sir,
    I edited my #9 by adding one more sentence as it’s final sentence.
    Thanks and Regards.

    @iyerviji @messedup
    My dear Viji
    Thank you for your second nomination of @Nuzhath 's A Fine Cup Of Tea? - Musings In The Early Morning
    Thank you messedup for promptly seconding it.
    Naushat's musings, be they at early morning or any other time of the day, are extremely interesting ones. She specializes in 'talking' language meaning that when you read her, it is as though you are sitting across and talking to her. Take this for instance:
    That made my chuckle. This scenario was restricted to 52 Sundays in the past and it would be a welcome break from the routine. But if it happens everyday of the week, the experience would be bizarre as she calls it.
    The cup of tea remains the background of her entire story. This reminds me of the famous Tom Hanks movie, Forrest Gump. The film starts with a feather drifting in the wind and settles near Forrest Gump. When the film ends, the same feather which Gump had preserved in a book flies out of the book and drifts in the wind.
    I was as inspired by Nuzhath's blog as I was with Forrest Gump.

    Thanks! I appreciate your feedback. Not seen Forrest Gump. I have seen that Tom Hanks movie where he is a survivor on an island.. FedEx became popular after that movie -- what was the name of that movie..? I forget :(

    Hi
    The link - How to add a "Link" in my post? does not work for me. I clicked the permalink of the post I wanted to nominate. What do I do next?
    Thanks!

    I would also like to nominate this - not sure how to do it though. It is a frank and bold writeup - and pouring out all the apprehensions.
