34 Bubblegums and Candies is a collection
of 34 real life incidents. Some of them are not everyday stuff but probably
can happen to everybody someday and you will probably recognize yourself in
them. Some are humorous, some moving, some thought provoking but each one brings
out the trials and tribulations of a successful journey called life.
This is one book that will tempt you, making you want to taste it, chew it,
relish it. So what are you going to pick today---a bubblegum or a candy?
This book is on love, hope and other such delicacies. Life
is a bit like bubblegum and candies
Sometimes you have to keep on chewing so that you extract whatever
you can out of it. Sometimes the bubble you blow bursts unexpectedly and you
are left with a sticky mess. Sometimes you just have to lick it slowly and relish
it. Sometimes you have to bite it to savour it. Sometimes you greedily bite
off more than you can chew. Sometimes a hard boiled sugar candy slips down inadvertently
and you bear the pain as it makes its way down the food pipe. At rare times
when you manage to strike just the right balance, a feeling of contentment reigns
supreme.
Life does not come with an instruction manual, but you can still convert it
to a ‘Do it yourself’ kit! It throws you surprises. At times it
trips you and you figure out that the best way to deal with it, is to just lie
there and laugh, before bouncing right back.
