I don't understand - When you all enjoyed yourselves so much, why is nobody smiling in the photo?? Looks like Master Sahab Moin has bade you not to?

He was dead serious even whilst being feted..

I would rather hit my target gently than miss hard.

Well good to see dedicated IFGians go hunting for leather, this proves that "if there is a will there are many ways " and not just a way. Keeping away from rummy rum & roma was indeed a good advice, but what mystified me was verse from masnavi of maulana jallaluddin RUMI. Iam slowly getting into a new cult where MASTERS teach you a lesson in IFGism. Correct me if iam wrong.

> Me thinks that there's a poet within everyone of us waiting to find expression - here's my rejoinder....
I hope for a future, a better tomorrow,
For people who need compassion and care,
I hope that bitterness melts with the touch of a heartbeat,
I hope for the love that we can give one another,
For are we not really everyone's brother?
Cheers

No hope for a future nor a better t’morrow
None to love or share my sorrow.
The bitterness within I shall carry to my grave.
And the love that you speak of forever will I crave…

Thank you Moin dear for a post so full of life and humour.
I probably shared a bit of these moments when I called you up and had a change to talk to Brihaji. So In spirit I was there too I guess
TC
PS : What did Brihaji and I talk about ? Pt Ravi Shankar, who passed away the day before. Brihaji saw Ravi Shankarji from close and heard the man live at Royal Albert Hall, London, before I was born.
