The Seventh Day

Year Twenty ten.
Day Seven.

It's cold. I'm not merely referring to the cold wave conditions in the northrn hemisphere.
It's a cold year indeed.

Thousands of Worldspace subscribers and staff left out in the cold. And that's not the one tune I'm playing on my harp.

Notre Dame Communication Centre, the pioneering television production training centre in Bihar, started in 1977, is winding up its programme and will finally fade to black on March 31, 2010.

Unable to keep up with the changing times, and the superfast technology turnover, the NDCC will be taking a bow. Training for video production will stop, but the communication ministry will continue.

The first seven days of January have been bitter-sweet. It's difficult to have to say goodbye to a way of life all of a sudden. One starts getting sentimental, and of course, suddenly realises that things taken for granted assume so much more significance when they suddenly start to fade away.

There is of course, the fact that each year bring with it many opportunities and new beginnings. And I am sure the days ahead will bring a fair amount of sunshine as well.

But right now.....

It's cold.
It's raining in my heart.
