Hi Baby, Just when I was tucking your baby sister in, I could not help but think to myself that I was so lucky that you are my firstborn.

Breathe, Intolerants. Breathe.
This is not a rant about how people are going ballistic over other people who say that India is transforming into an intolerant state. What is happening all across the news channels, facebook, whatsapp and twitter is a show of intolerance at a much deeper level.
