I do not have words to explain what we go through at the end of the month!! After the excitement caused by the shower of nominations and the pleasure of reading one excellent post after another, rings the big gong! Its time to choose! Let me put it this way for then every female member (and a few male members too?!) will understand the pressure very clearly--- Imagine we go to a huge and famous sari house..say Pothys or Nallis and we are on a budget and can buy only one or two saris at the most..!! Yes friends, all of you will now understand the pain of it all!!
Having graphically explained the pain we go through, I will proceed to say that thankfully the pain was gradually healed, slowly but somewhat pleasantly. Did you know the healing power of certain scents? All of us who have read a Jane Austen know how the smelling salts work on the jarred nerves of the dainty ladies!! In this case, it was not just the smelling salts, but a plethora of scents that invaded the senses, its intoxication was simply over powering! There was no question of hesitating. Its spell left no choice but to succumb to the sweetness! If in doubt, check it out for yourself...
The winner of the Finest Narration is Parineethi's 'The Pinnacle of Intoxication'!
Congratulations Parineethi!
You left us truly intoxicated with your snippet! The amazing variety of smells and scents we are exposed to was brought to us in a very pleasant and beautiful narration by you. I am almost sure that everyone who read the snippet were bathed in the floral aromas, could smell the freshly brewed coffee and end up smiling at the sweet smell of Johnson's baby!! Johnson??! Your baby! Please continue with your snippets and bring us joy Parineethi, it is my sincere request to you!

From the above snippet we realize how we are surrounded by a wealth of beauty, be it nature or its scents, sounds and the laughter of a baby. Most of us take it for granted and forget its existence in the humdrum of life. We are so busy with our electronic gadgets, cars and planes and go on adding and improving the same for an even more savvier version and pride ourselves about our efficiency. Then one day the same car or plane gets us into a dangerous situation plunging our egos along with it. What do we do then? We look up to the heaven, the same heaven we had forgotten! Realization hits us! That's what happened to Stillwater!
The Winner of the Finest Contribution goes to Stillwater for her "Is it God?"
Congratulations Stillwater!
It was gripping to read your chilling experience which you narrated beautifully. One experiences a certain anxiety and suspense and holds the breath wondering how and where your journey ends. It did take you almost out of this world and made you realize what exists out there, everywhere. You ask ' is it God'! I ask you, what else...?! Whatever name we may give, the Presence is felt everywhere! We hope Stillwaters that you will give us many more such snippets. You have been your own competition as your 8-8.30 snippet was also in the race! We don't tire reading your snippets and hope you don't tire writing them!
