This week we celebrate the birthdays of Gandhi and Shastri. Two honest men Indian politics has ever seen. What I appreciated most in Gandhi was his sense of self-criticism and his ability to speak/write about his weakness in public. I don’t think normals can do it then or even today. In Shastri, his simplicity and ability to remain sane while in power and give up the power when required amazes me. It just seems too farfetched in today’s society.
Sometimes I am surprised that I am the first generation graduate in my family. And so much change has happened in one generation. Imagine the folks who have had the generational advantage.
I have had a couple of air quality sensors. But none of them have a variety of sensors, AQI calculation, and local open data access. Finally, I found IQAir AirVisualPro, which suits my requirement like a glove.
We are back in Bangalore. The air feels different, for sure. Bangalore has excellent weather but the air? I don’t know anymore.
Echo and Pathu like long walks. I do like long walks with them. Usually, it isn’t easy in Bangalore with lots of traffic. But here in Thrissur, they go for long walks on pretty roads.
We celebrate September 5th as teachers’ day in India. It used to be significant when Amma was alive and working. She used to get a lot of gifts from her students, flowers (especially roses), Cadburys five star, peacock feathers, Coffee Byte toffee, etc. She used to say government primary school kids are the best. Personally, teaching has been a fantastic experience for me. It has made me more empathetic.
