Grammatically speaking

Yes, I have discovered that usually when we speak ...I mean an average Indian...recognised by the fact that she can understand and read and write English..yet our knowledge of standard English is limited by the fact that either we do not have good magazines and literature available (...that we by choice do not read) or it is that there are lesser people to even talk to in English...leave alone Standard English...I was good at getting marks in the grammar exams...I am bad when i speak...sometimes my shallow grammar knowlwdge(=IGNORANCE) takes a toll as even when i know thw correct word...i can't use it as i do not know which of had, have, has or rather or do rather or do well...etc should I be using. Well, I hope I am the only one...but I know there are several others facing this problem!!!
Another thing, I just read one of my old bookmarks...it read those famous line of the alchemist in the eponymous novel by Paulo Coelho "We have to take advantage when luck is on our side, and do as much to help it as it's doing to help us "- This he calls the Principle of Favorability Or Beginner's Luck...And It is True!!!
I am waiting for the rains...but I am able to reconcile to this heat and Dust and testing times-because as ugly as they look, so much beauty they promise to usher in to our lives!!!:)

Happy New Day to you!!!
