Journalism that propelled me into blogging by Dushiyanthini Kanagasabapathipillai
My blog is a non-partisan site with diverse views. It is dedicated to the promotion of ethical journalism—a conscious decision on my part. It captures conflict, culture, events, nature, peace, people, tradition, and other subjects, in articles and photos. I travelled solo to the war zone to capture images—a first for a Tamil woman journalist in Sri Lanka. |

Shows all beauty
Always dancing daily
on the heads of lass
Wherever hidden

Pleasing the eyes
Its scent mixes with wind
while on women's head
making them proud
Wear it on our heads
we aren't fortunate
wonder the men in angst
with the jasmine flower
