Somehere in the distant past, after an indulgent holiday with the body and mind fully recharged, a dome drink beckons me near a the airport terminal.

Thoughts of ageing the wine in the midst of the lush and dark storeroom cellar of sun-drenched HDB storeroom and finally presenting it to my future wife - seems priceless for the future...

04 Sep 2011 - after the birth of Matthias, the vintage Dome of 10+ years was remembered and presented - it was drunk without the passion and majestic moments as i had imagined years back...

This set the impetus of the cells in the main conrol center racing.... its time to capture all my memories and experiences crafted up there in the form of a blog so that it can be part of the distant memories even though some things can never be much appreciated or so as one may think...

Arrival of prince Matthias


Returned familiarity of the anxious moment, when 2 years back we awaited the arrival of our first born Samuel, now we await the arrival of Matthias.

Confidence surrounds since we had already went through it once, yet being confident is one thing, reality is another.

At 0137, Matthias arrived healthily into this World. A thunderous cry follow... ha ha...(awaiting the moment) he is quite different from Samuel - in the way he signalled his arrival. Samuel arrived in serenity and refused to cry even though the nurses pricked him with a needle.


The ultimate partnership of happiness surrounds dad, mum and child when suddenly a part of the moment became shrouded with unease. Flowing river of blood gathers on the floor and mum is bleeding all of a sudden. Panicked filled room, nervous nurses, paled mum and dad was heralded out of the room.

Who can ever bear such spectacle? I was worried and pace around the delivery suite, burning a seared track in its path - such exaggeration but i will not want to ever relive such moment....


Fast forwarding and today mummy has since recovered and is doing well. I am grateful that everything turns out well in the end, grateful for every good night and day, grateful for healthy sons so i offer my gratitude and love to the divine.
