Memories…
A place full of fresh fragrance
be it steaming coffee or sandalwood essence
A place where friendships start
over water-coolers cues or a passing warm smile
A place where the corridors echo with
tunes from guitar, sarod or regaling solos from nightingales
A place where politics, ambitions and relationships
are debated and discussed over the mess table
A place where the passages resound with
laughter and mirth of verve and vivacious women
A place where individuality is nourished
and femininity blossoms
A place where you can be the woman
you are…
and discover the women you want to be
Our beloved Cauvery!
A respite away from the cacophony of hospital
