Warrier's Collage on December 11, 2024

Welcome To Warrier's COLLAGE On Wednesday, December 11, 2024 Good Morning A midweek edition to report the change of RBI Governor. Shaktikanta Das completed his six year tenure as Governor and Sanjay Malhotra became 26th Governor of RBI. M G Warrier A Shaktikanta Das completes his six year tenure as Governor, RBI : https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/das-leaves-a-capital-legacy-12886271.html Das leaves behind a capital legacy! Few would have thought at the start of his first term in 2018 that, with a post-graduation in history, Das could have led the RBI to achieve this level of economic, financial, and technological success. History has taught him a lot. Sanjay Malhotra is new RBI Governor : https://m.economictimes.com/news/economy/policy/sanjay-malhotra-appointed-as-new-rbi-governor/articleshow/116141059.cms B Happiness My RBI colleague Shri R Jayakumar responded to my message yesterday sharing his experience of the celebration the family organised on his 75th Birthday. Please read : Making Others Happy Dear Warrier Narayani Ganesh's article on Warm Glow Effect is enlightening. https://m.economictimes.com/opinion/speaking-tree/warm-glow-effect/articleshow/116112461.cms We don't need any gift for our birthdays. God has given us enough and more. Yesterday my family celebrated my 75th Birthday. In preparation for this both my NRI children made sure themselves to be available in the city. My two daughters planned ten days of outing to the South. One daughter wanted to buy me new a pant and shirt. When we went to the show room it took one hour for me to decide on the colour for the pant and shirt. Every colour available in the showroom was covered in the existing sets of dress available with me at home. My daughter got fed up and went out of the showroom. I finally came out buying cloths with similar colour of clothes already available with me but with somewhat different shining texture. My son presented me with a new TITAN watch which makes it to four watches in working condition and another three needing serious repairs in the collection of watches with me.. We don't need gifts. We need only some quality time with children and grandchildren as our birthday gifts.. The trip to Kerala was real rejuvenation. A homestay at a cottage facing the golden beach in Thumba, enjoying the waves and sunny reflection sitting on a chair in the beach sand was real experience. A Poovar Backwaters Boating Cruise (capacity not more than seven) which included Bird watching and gliding along the floating trees, creepers, mangroves and cactus plants and a sip of coffee with hot banana (ripe) bajji in a floating restaurant was a real treat and made me wonder 'this is why they call it God's own country '. Despite unfavorable health I really enjoyed the celebration surrounded with grown up and growing up kids .
