‘I love people’
It was the first time ever that I sat face-to-face with someone who had outstripped by 30 years the life-span of three score and ten allotted us by the psalmist. I had met “Grace Auntie” in the home of her niece, my school friend, Dr. Gladys Vanniasingham (nee Sinnetamby), when we were both considerably younger and it seemed fantastic to me to meet this gracious and mentally alert personality again as she approached her 100th birthday on August 7, 2008.

Stones symbolised through dance? This is the novel theme that will be brought to life when Naomi Rajaratnam’s ‘With My Feet’ brings to you, ‘Living Stones’. And what you will see is how precious stones and metals will be depicted through dance and classical and modern music. “The dances will be about jewels,” said Naomi, adding, they will depict gold, pearl, diamond and 12 other stones.
