Chingam 1

A very special way to start a new year.
Chingam 1 is the Malayalam new year and this garland was worn by favourite - my Ernakulathappan - the Lord of Ernakulam.

They say that one must ask..Getting an reply/answer is not in our control.

I asked for the mala (flower garland) worn by Him first thing in the morning and I was pretty sure I would not get it as there is a set protocol.

But, but...I got it. Cannot thank some people enough for making my day ..my year...by giving away what rightfully belongs to them!! You know who you are.

What more do I need to know that He is with us?

Ernakulathappa sharanam!!
