A boy had a fluffy beautiful black and brown coat.

Each winter season, he will take it out from his steel trunk and wear it with pride.

Just wearing it makes him feel happy. When he shifted to various countries, for work, without forgetting he will take the coat with him. And winter coat will cover him.

One day, his friend asks him, you have earned a lot, why not buy a leather jacket and look trendy?

He says, this coat brings back many events of his life at a time and thus he feels connected to all who gave him memories.

Is it not like our face which is always covering our inner self tacitly each season, every season! Each lines on the face indicates various seasons of our life, various memories! Could we ever want to change it?

There are lots and lots of developments which we see daily happening, atleast at the metro cities of India. But Indians usually keep their traditions alive wherever they go, be it town or city.

How?

They keep in touch with their predecessors by say,

1 .  Phone

2. Following the customs

3. Making associations

Even though they get new invites from other customs, they still cherish their own. Thus custom binds previous generation to current. Hence, all feel belonged to one or the other community via customs.

If someone wants to run away, which we see in the current generation, they long for identity after a while. Hence comes the origin of insane identity.

When sick maid cleans all utensils, lady of the house asks, do you need help?

When the child fails in all subjects, parents ask, do you need help?

When a lady is just out of labour room with lots of uneasiness, relatives ask, do you need help?

When wife struggles with so many tasks, end of struggle, husband asks, do you need any help?!!

Many a times these questions need answers with spellchecks auto-off.

 

 

I always wondered whenever pretty leaves had fallen on waysides, why this? It should not have fallen only.

But, its a fodder to other growing trees. So is the fallen behavior of one person fodder to other living souls?

Could the leaf decide not to fall?! Could the faulty person decide not to fall?! No, never.

So, go get lessons each time somebody puts you down. It’s just a fodder for you.

Be merry and grow infinite.

 

Usually freshers and experienced equally say, there is no job, no transparency only corruption and recommendation.

But, how much is our devotion? That is, how much effort we have put to be the choice of the employer? , how much we have prayed to be  placed,?

There are unseen hands which guide us through the process, if we have prayed and we have put our efforts.

‘Kaun kehta hai bhagwan aate nahi

Tum Meera ke jaise bulaate nahi’

Supreme devotion is expected for achievement, be it any arena.

May we all become Meera in the process.

Old people are wiser, why?

Experience.

What if the experience is mutilated one?

Mutilated wiser?

It’s an individual quality be what their age is.

Do not think we can become wiser with age, cultivate good habits so that experience itself turns wise enough.

Kudos to all with wise habits.

Some lump here, some lump there, cancer is everywhere.

Once hero was flue, now its you.

You gain respect, as you come in stages

Not in a go like flue do.

Those in stage1, you love most, as they are back again in stage2, 3 and 4

Flue makes victims, count it’s day but cancer, you make them count their days here;

High time we human race find a way, to throw you out from our way.

 

What strike me is the lost look in his eyes.  The defeat given by destiny when the person much close to us turns history in a second.

Will it be the birth-rebirth ideology which would put us at ease?
Or is it nature playing some games behind the scene. Nature indicates god here. Some hidden tale resting as molecules decides the next bodily existence of the person no more. This thought links destiny to godly matter and even to Hindu mythology of birth and rebirth.

Well, conscious never perish, nor the soul, nor writings, nor presence linked to materials. You will live in present with us through these channels. Moreover,   We will meet you now and then with these features inherent in various human forms. Till we all meet again in the eternal abode where you are, rest in peace dearest Mary. We all love you.

What a non-stop downpour!!

Life comes to a soothing stop when we are yet to get up in the morning. But alarm ring at correct time, no delay there. Machine it is. Car engine someway is better than alarm, it causes lots of noise to start even. It is a friend to rain mode.

Depressing and suppressing rain when it comes to traffic jam. But nerves are cold during rain, thus kind of amicable with rain mood.

I guess all think clearly during cold climates, as no external pressure,  as rain makes everyone think alike. All tune to their inner self and re-invent themselves.

This invention trespasses all negative modes and one could see the real light even if no sun light in sight.

Wishing a happy rain day, as it makes us see clearly from within and by then clouds move away making the sky clearer as clear as our inner self.

These are two beautiful gems who came to our life and brought happiness. They have credits of being the first twins and first set of fourth generation. Hence, they are very very special for each one of us.

The time spent with SS watching butterflies still remain clear in my mind. The patience in watching and great listenining capacity made them the best. They have many friends so close to them now and then.

There are infinite memories and many many more to come. One among is their courageous journey, when they were three years of age. They came holding their hands  together without parents from Dubai to India. First time we came to know Marhaba system to assist small kids to reach their destination.

Their likes and dislikes are given much importance,  as priorities of job changed for each one of us. They were the central point of any decision. Now, after so many years, they are grown up. The individuals they have become is par excellent.

You both gave us reason to move forward and now when you have turned a year older, we pray to see you more and more enriched year after year.

Dedicating to my lovely first kids, Sthu n Sam.
