sun, sunlight, rain...

* mornings are bright, sunny and beautiful.
* evenings are cloudy, windy, rainy and beautiful.
* watching raindrops slide down leaves.

* hands are curled around mugs of steaming hot chai.
* finding beauty in 'things as they are'
* learning that sunlight, a wooden table and a hot cup of morning chai is a great combination that makes it to the front page of explore.
* I linger around windows, sinks and wash basins.
* completely bowled over by
this, this and this.
* hope to own a polaroid and a holga someday.
* I think
park weddings are so simple and beautiful
* discovered 'Rumi'
* watching an ice cream melt is lovely.

Enjoy the day and your life.

I feel very inspired by this post, Arch. It is raining here in New York today and I've been in kind of a negative mood, but after reading your post, I feel very touched and inspired. And I ask myself, Why can't rain in New York be beautiful ever? Everyone complains. But I'm going to change my opinion of rain here and do as you say enjoy "things as they are". What a wonderful message.

Hi Arch,

I have a favor to ask of youe are building a family house and am in charge of the living room furniture.

I was wondering if you could suggest me some designs for the chairs, table, carpet, pots, lamps, the works!.We intend to get the furniture custom-made with teak wood--but that's the only thing decided so far.

I checked the Net but it didn't help much..I was looking in the wrong places perhaps. Ironically, what I'm looking for is non-Indian designs, but I'd still trust your impeccable taste.

Your photos are absolutely stunning. I was given your link by someone who's email is called cappuccino and chocolate. They read my blog and suggested I reference you on some of my "Zen Moments". I hope you don't mind if I post your pictures, with a reference to you, of course. Keep up the good work!
