_A Story in Everything I See!_

“One thing I couldn’t figure out was, while the rest of the family and friends were
appreciative of my newly found talent of writing, that too at the ripe age of 70
years, my daughter’s hackles would always rise at the sight of my printed articles.

First I assumed it to be jealousy. But later, when I decided to compile my articles
and publish them in the form of a book for posterity and she offered to correct 
the proofs, I could somewhat understand her attitude to my creative efforts.

Basically, the difference between the two of us lay in the fact that while I was
brimming with ideas, finding a story in every everyday event, she was an experienced
editorial person in charge of an internationally known and well produced science
journal.”
