Remembering Maa

Image
 Maa It's been 5 years now emotionally and 1 year physically that you left us. 5 years because you were never the same after Papa went away. I have seen what a devastated, depressed person looks like. I never saw the same sparkle in your eyes when you laughed, never the same zeal in doing anything. I never in the remotest of my thought imagined that I will ever see you like that.   Since 2014, I never prayed or bowed before Goddess Durga as she took away my father first and then you in 2019. I kept complaining to her for not seeing our pain and loss until few months before I realized that she saw your suffering and your pain which was much beyond ours. You taught us everything but you missed to teach us how to live without you. I have lots of things buried in my heart because there is no ears around for me.  Today i came across this poem which matches my grief. I am certain that both of you are together now, I am sure both of you are still tirelessly praising each ot...

The theory of aging

Image
  Between 30s and 40s Have you hit this landmark called 40 ? Or, are you heading up to.  The age is just a number but this number surely teaches us a lot of things when we are moving upwards. Here I am sharing my learnings and experiences to move upwards gracefully and living happily.  1. Stop pretending to enjoy things you actually hate. Haven't you tried living for others in your late 20s and mid 30s? Don't you regret it now? (think..). So, now w hy are you going to a kirtan or a kitty party if you don't want to? Stop making others happy and think about yourself first.  Learn to say NO. 2. Find a hobby. When was the last time you went for a walk alone? When was the last time you finished watching your favorite movie in one go? Did you stitch anything in the last few years? Dance? painting? So, now its the time to thinks about these things once again. Children have grown up, they can take care of themselves. So, get up , your hobby is calling.   ...

This song always makes me cry

O Ri Chiraiya Nanhi si chidiya Angnaa mein phir aaja re O Ri Chiraiya Nanhi si chidiya Angnaa mein phir aaja re Andhiyara hai ghana aur lahu se sana Kirno ke tinke ambar se chunn ke Angna mein phir aaja re Humne tujhpe hazaro sitam hain kiye Humne tujhpe jahaan bhar ke zulm kiye Humne socha nahi Tu jo ud jaayegi Ye zameen tere bin sooni reh jaayegi Kiske dum pe sajega angna mera O Ri Chiraiya, meri Chiraiya Angnaa mein phir aaja re Tere pankho mein saare sitare jadu Teri chunar satrangi bunu Tere kaajal mein main kaali raina bharu Teri mehandi mein main kacchi dhoop malu Tere naino sajaa doon naya sapna O Ri Chiraiya, meri Chiraiya Angnaa mein phir aaja re O Ri Chiraiya Nanhi si chidiya Angnaa mein phir aaja re O Ri Chiraiya...

Independence Day

Jai Hind...Jai Bharat... Hamara Bharat mahaan.... Heard and said this several times, however, not feeling it from dil se.... Today morning at 7:30 sharp, I switched on my TV and heard our THE great PM's speech, it was good to hear him, as he rarely speaks. and then, suddenly found the answer to why TV is called an Idiot Box. Then heard NaMo for a couple of minutes, and then I switched the TV off.  The only difference between those was that one rarely speaks and the other one always speaks...mostly the same subject. Now, there is nothing exciting on TV to watch on these special days. Even, DD , now, doesnot show patriotic movies. Feeling absolutely bored, irritated, frustrated, and annoyed. Even  my all time favourite FB failed to impress me today. Boys (read men) are metioning this day as sad, as 15th august remains to be a dry day. This is why, they are SAD!!! What to say, what to feel, what to write... Jai Hind....once again...

Gift a Life

I always wanted to be a blood donor, however because of my low hemoglobin, never been able to donate my blood. Currently I am getting curious about Organ Donation. Organ Donation is still an alien belief in our country. There are many myths regarding it. Some say, you don't get the donated organ in your next birth. For ex, if you donate your eyes, you would be blind in your next birth! Let's not forget:   “…it is said that the soul is invisible…knowing this you should not grieve for the body.” Bhagavad Gita, chapter 2:25 “Of all the things that it is possible to donate, to donate your own body is infinitely more worthwhile.” The Manusmruti So, we can conclude that religion permits organ donation. The only thing required is our will and a thought to save a life after we die. Let's think about it...
