Of Long Forgotten Dreams

Stories are fascinating little bits of history that play out in several ways. Sometimes they are reflected as kaleidoscopic refractions that catch one's attention fleetingly and at other times a string of experiences that stay forever. Long forgotten dreams, is an endeavour to showcase the alluring tug that I always felt especially as a child which unfolds even today when a story either stirs my soul, gets me thinking or takes me on intriguing flights of fancy. Punctuating these experiences was the persistent urge to share the 'feeling of feeling a story'. A good story strikes like a bolt of lightning, yanking one out of eons of slumber, or perhaps light as a feather it leaves an imprint that surfaces every now and then. Reminiscing and retracting: reimagining and refurbishing is the bedrock of all the stories in this collection of Long forgotten Dreams ensuring that the reader reaches a destination of choice as they maneuver through its intrepid pages. Life is more often than not a Catch 22 situation: therefore 22 short stories have been carefully written, shaped and culled out of the threads intricately entwined in my heart and mind; each unique and independent in its own way yet with a very distinct thread running through them: holding all the independent and fiercely different characters together; sometimes places calling out loud and clear, sometimes just subtly making sure the reader notices the change, the fluttering heart, the quietude of a moment and the solemn and surreal, woven like an elaborate flying silk carpet that touches the clouds, bounces upon the rainbow and quietly sails away...
