Yesterday it was my birthday
I hung one more year on the line
— Paul Simon, ‘Have a Good Time’

I turned a year older this week. And wiser, wilder, bewildered?
A dash of all the above maybe, I don’t know. What I do know though is that, thanks to the press, I relish the reminder of a little bit of history blessing my very first birthday. Currently on display at my Bandra alma mater are artefacts from Pope Paul VI’s visit to Bombay on December 2, 1964. The exhibition commemorates the inaugural Papal mass on Indian soil at the Eucharistic Congress hosted here.
