Before I left to the office, someone near my house wanted to know where Rabindranath school is located. I corrected him saying it is Tagore School and not Rabindranath school and directed him.
On my way to Office, I remembered I had to inform my colleague about Rabindra Sethu in Kolkata and how Tagore is made to remember through symbols such as these.
I reach office and log on to google.co.in to find that Google's logo has rabindranath's sketch today. I click on it to discover that today is his birthday! I thought it was a nice way to give him a tribute.
It is when one comes across things collectively like this, that he/she is more eager to appreciate rather than find deeper meaning.

Um.. May be it was the day to salute him, on ther other hand, it could be just that you noticed it all in one day.
A friend of mine got married to a girl from North Karnataka and he was surprised on one day as to how many things he came across which are related to North Karnataka. He has been observing the same everyday, but he had failed to notice it till he discovered that his wife is from North Karnataka.
I think, it is our cognition combined with coincidences :)
A few months from now you might buy a pair of elite spectacles, listen to a maverick ex-cricketer blabber on TV, lose a Vadivel CD and get to run 10Km - and then realise who's birthday it is.
Believe me, that will be appreicated.
Hey, this happens often. When you don't know something you are ignorant to its presence. When you become aware then it kind of strikes you blatantly in your face and makes you wonder how you were unaware of it so long.
