At heart I am a very emotional person. I am<b> passionate</b> about many things in life... <b>1. Nature:</b> The rainforests, the mist, the mountains, the green grass-covered hills, the mossy stones, the waves lashing against the rocks on a beach, a beautiful sunset, the colours of the sky...I am passionate about all these! <b>2. Louis L'Amour Books:</b> I am an avid reader of Western books...especially ones written by Louis L'Amour. I really relish them...reading the same page twice sometimes!! (Ofcourse most of his novels I have read atleast twice!) <b>3. Humanity:</b> I love that feeling of oneness--Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Jains celebrating Holi, Id, Christmas and all other festivals together...! Stories of rapes, riots, murders etc upset me, and make me go into a 'Where are we headed?' kind of mode! <b>4. My family: </b>I have a wonderful wife and an adorable 3-year old daughter. My life revolves around them! There's so much more to be passionate about...! <b>I love life...</b>its ups and downs, its simplicities and its complexities, its monotonous moments and its exciting ones. I love them all. Well, this is me, to start with. The rest of me you will be able to touch on through the reviews that I write! So...happy reading!. Outdoor games, Trekking, Nature, Browsing the Net, Reading Westerns, Music--Listening and Playing...
