Awesome... Simply awesome. The past coupla days have been some of the toppest ones in B'lore. I'm loving it!!! (Hence the title for this post ;) ) I've spent quite sometime with Aneka (CSI CEans would be knowing her!) and it's been really good. She came home on a morning, last week. side comment >>> That's when I realised... Having a gal over is SOOOO much different from havin a guy (Jochu!) over... The house needs sprucing up!!! Sam, ya got budget fer that???? <<< I've met Anek's aunt (wid whom she's staying) and her aunt's kids. They're pretty cool people and quite friendly. I was at the Christmas eve lunch/party (no booze) at my cuz's place.... Met quite a few new people. Then discovered on Christmas morn that most of them attend da same church as I do - All Peoples Church!!! How cool is that??? Christmas day was really cool. I finished church with Aneka and I was jus droppin her off near her place when my TL called. He s

God's rockin me. Pretty hard.... And in a good way, this time around. Life's finally settling into a fast-paced, God-centred momentum.... Written two awesome songs in the past week. The Haunting was written as a follow-up to the crucifixion of Hope, while Beyond The Veil was written for the momentous occasion of Mishtu's marriage. Do check them out by clicking the 'New Songs' link to the right... Apart from this, I'm getting more involved with the All Peoples Church. Atleast, I hope to. I really don't agree with everything that is taught there... But that is the case with any church. I cannot have a perfect church. Let's see... I believe that the Lord wants me at this church for some divine purpose, and that's enough for me at the moment. I've committed to helping out with setup prior to the services... And I'm thinking of getting involved with "The Sanctuary" ministry - started by one lady-member - which is a coffee shop, library,

Last Thursday morning (7th Dec), Jochu (Joseph V) landed in Banagalore. I brought him over from the station and took him around the city a lil bit... He was totally awed by all the labels/brands factory outlets at Marathahalli. Then I dragged him along while I enquired about some home furniture and interior decor items at three furniture & style shops ;) In his own words "Daniel, you are tempting me!" And of course, the experience has given him certain ideas of his own for entrepreneurship.......... After all that, we went and bought some veal kebabs and sheek kebabs (from across the R. Station) and added a coupla drinks (Appy! NOT anything else). Jacaba (Arun J) and Varkey (Varghese I J) joined us that evening at my place.... Jochu and me were waiting for them at the corner of my street. When those two showed up, there was such a huge scene!!! Hugs and kisses all around.... No, I mean literally. I asked the three to pipe down, but ... to no avail. We sat in my room and y

Hiya. Jus a quick note to say that two new songs are up. One is inspired by two of my friends who are going through really tough situations... The other is about the dinner I had with Billy Y. Please do go through these two songs... You can access them by the RSS feed link to the "New Songs" on the right side of this blog site.... :D God bless!

Well, I've been alone at home for more than a week and contrary to popular opinion that I would go mad being home alone, I've been enjoying myself. Of course, my neighbours might not have had the same enjoyment...... I've treated them to the tunes of Walt Disney, Steven Curtis Chapman, Rebecca St. James, Matt Redman, Petra, Jump 5, some Tamil Christian stuff, OST - The Lion King, FFH and the PraiseBand. It's a wonder I've not had any complaints so far! I've been having a pretty good week. Work's been going on OK due to my huge and major trust in the Lord. So it's really good... I'm able to face up to it. I met Billy Yesudian last Saturday. He had come over to Bangalore to help out with the Steve's Gym outfit for an outreach programme. Of course, he knew me already cos Arul had intro-ed me to him. So he was actually introducing me to ppl as "This is Dan. He's a song-writer." You know..... I know that I write songs. But to hear of it
