Dear Visitor
“Welcome to My World. My World of TITANIC”
It all started in summer vacations of year 1994. At that time I was just 10.
The first time I heard the word TITANIC, was from my brother when he was in high school.
That day he came up to me and told me about one of his chapters in his English book about a ship which sank after a hitting an iceberg and many people died in that accident.
Though it is not at all to get fascinated about however I felt like reading that chapter.
It took me 2 days to read it all as I was imagining how each and every incident would have happened.
Simultaneously, I felt the beauty of the ship, that fateful night and the agony and pain which broke the silence of Atlantic Ocean. Somehow I started relating myself from incident as I was in that ship.
I became one of the million fans among the world but the impact was in depth of my heart. It actually was, when “Titanic” the movie released in 1995 that made me a die-hard follower of that drowned ship.
I started searching for relevant information and collecting stuff related to the ship. Even a bit collected was more than a gold mine for me.
Initially the support I got was zilch. My family & friends started to divert my attention and not supported my passion as they couldn’t believe that a school going girl is wasting her time for a non-living luxury linear which in 13000 miles down the ocean and so far away from real world’s reach and even for my expectations.
Especially with my father, for him spending time for that not existing thing and to be that querulous for the searching and purchasing the stuff related to TITANIC was the waste of my time and his money.
Beyond the entire unsupported environment and circumstance, I took it as a pledge and started with all dedication for collecting posters, data, pictures, newspaper articles, web searches, movie clippings, movie song, collages, envelopes etc.
Soon I realized that it was not that far for everyone to see my passion towards TITANIC.
Family started giving immense freedom and support to explore more about it and friends also contribute their bit of info into the great ocean of my love for TITANIC.
So I got the comfort zone to talk to them and express my feelings about my passion towards it.
My friend s started calling me “Titanic”. On all my books except my name there was only Titanic initials, which became my symbol.
Standing at half of my life time, I would have changed a lot but titanic is still my first and last love.
It is my passion that drove me towards establishing this website where I can display my collection and share my dream with the world outside.
This site contains all the relevant info that I would have collected since my childhood.
I named it “Dream of Titanic” as since the beginning of my passion I use to dream about the ship and it is still my dream to go those thousands of miles under the ocean to see my Titanic lying on the deep grounds of Atlantic Ocean.
