Dear Mr. Anonymous

Dear Mr. Anonymous,

I think it is time I once again attempted to communicate with you. I have been consistently getting a lot of nasty posts on this blog, under the pen name "Anonymous". Initially I was pained and hurt by this show of hostility and did at one point try to reach out to you. But found that dialogue was not possible, since you would not write directly to me. After a while I learnt to take it in my stride and, believe me, that was a BIG thing to learn... I suppose I will be always grateful to my unknown benefactor for this.

Subsequently I instituted a policy whereby I will delete all meaningless hate posts without a second thought. However I still find that the posts have continued. This could mean, either I am very famous (which I doubt) and I get a zillion page hits (I don't have a counter on my blog, so I have no clue)....which I seriously doubt, or it means that you are REALLY communicating to me, and not to the "Audience". I have tried to go back in my life to see if I could have possibly hurt to the extent that they could continue to write stuff like this to me. Other than my wife, I cannot think of anyone else! :)

So Mr. Anonymous, if your objective is really to communicate with me, I encourage you to come out from your cloak of anonymity and speak to me directly. I don't have any great powers, so I am sure that I cannot harm you seriously. However if the only response to this attempt to reach out..is another post on my blog, then MY only response will be to delete it without comment.

I trust that you will have the faith to face your demons directly, rather than to shoot around the corner.

This is the home that my grandfather built about 22 km from kottayam. I am thinking of renting out the cottage for people to come and stay if they want to. I will try to write a more detailed web page later. I will also add some more pictures.
