The Eye of Sauron: The name

seems a wierd name for a blog, but there's an interesting(??) history behind it (interesting or not, well that's for u to judge) ... i was looking for a nice jazzy hip name for my blog ... but just when i needed it the most, my creativity deserted me. So i turn to a friend and ask her to suggest a name... how was i to know she'll use it as an opportunity to take my case and call me a kanjoos. And i'm back to where i started...in the middle of nowhere. The next thing that comes to my mind is the nickname given to me by my friends at XL ... 'The Eye of Sauron' because of my ability to spot things they fail to notice (like girls in a crowded place ;-) ...or maybe because despite wearing glasses, i can see better than many of them..... on a more serious note, it all started with 'The God of Small Things'. While reading it, (might not be corelated though) i realised that there are so many little things happening around us which we fail to take notice of. While running after bigger material pleasures, we tend to ignore the small joys of life.

Flashback to u'r childhood- think what did it take to make u happy.... a couple of marbles more then u'r friends, a small butterfly flying around in the garden, jumping in a puddle after rain.

But this blog is also about something else .... things which are not a 'feel-good' stuff. It is about the darker side of the 'darklord' ... the evil behaviour of people i see everywhere, things which can frustrate any sane human being, the hypocrisy, the masks, the attitudes....well the list is endless
