maple in december...
Maple tree, one of the most beautiful trees in the world. It is always symbolized for humanly emotions like love and emotions related to it like obsession etc etc. A maple leaf flowing in the water or flying in the wind signifies sadness. Likewise this tree has a life span which is similar to human life.
Let’s start it with the Spring- Spring season strats in january till march is when the maple starts blooming, but obviously not the flowers but the leaves. It can be compared as what we say, taking birth; not knowing what actually you are going to experience, purely a dawning of a new soul to human.
Later by the Summer- that is during April may June... It takes it’s greenly figure. the period when we are provided with every necessity and needs, the only time in life where we are completely free of real tensions..no worries.. no agonies just stretchng up the eyebrows for not doing home works, or fearing examinations, competing fellow students. The years keep on going until you finish with your academics. The only period in life you wish truely from heart to be a grown up so that you can escape from bad scores, punishments, mommy’s angry red bulls eyes :)
By the end of summer it starts to blossom... small small flowers appears in between the leaves which will plunge out in a few days like momentary, meaningless happenings in life.
Next is Autumn- the era of colors. The maple leaves turns to yellow, orange and red colors, which is really a feast for eyes. The beauty can’t be compared to anything. Most probably by the end of your college almost all are fixed them up with their future partners, or it’s during that time when the teens are free from their teenage itself and also from books, referrals, assignments, seminars all studious stuffs. They enter their first step to LIFE where the fruits of responsibilities to
parents, society and to themselves reap. With the 1000 Billion $ worth papers called certificates they sets out in search of best places to get occupied in job, in thought of living the present and earning and saving for the future. Life is anyways fruitful with new job, new place new kind of life style. In the beginning, every fruit tastes sweet, but the same sweetness troubles you later on. We all know that the same food served for days creates a sort of dislike which makes you say... awe!! again this nasty thing?? This is also the time where you fight for your dreams- wealth, power, fame etc etc, your brain on flame to cope up with the tough situations. We gains, loses, loves, hates, everything happens in life in this particular autumn season.
And finally the Winter- (October, November, December) the fine lovely colorful leaves turn brown and starts to tarnish. The maple starts to shed
its gorgeous feathers. In winter there isn’t enough light and the photosynthesis does not takes place. And we human faces total body disorder- skin shrinks, wrinkles all over the body, Cholesterol problem, diabetics, BP. Heart, lungs, kidneys, liver every organs malfunctioning. We struggles to recollect everything, the past blurs putting a side the remnants of our good healthy days unknown to ourselves. Like the maple tree in the cold with its weak branches becomes the firewood, burns in the fire and its smoke merge with the air in the atmosphere… we also finally reaches the grave melts in the soil and disappears to nowhere…This is life…
December always smells weird. A kind of loser feeling circulates inside our hearts. Is that that we lost a year from our Life? I don’t know… Any way let the maple tree with her new hope bud and blossom again in the spring next year…

A dream for the future!!!
[11th December 2014]
Tringggggggggggggg!!!! …the alarm clock rang together at three houses in the colony of Crispbase hill at Bangalore. It was 6am in the morning.
As usual the warmth of the bed didn’t allow munnu to settle her on her foot to start the household chores of the day. But with a pleasant stretch she managed to wipe the sleepiness and jumped out of the bed. The first duty after waking up is nothing, not even washing the face but rushing at the telephone and ringing the two laziest women’s in the world; achu and paachu. Like the woman’s protection society members says the other two part of the soul of IK4. She made the call on conference pressing the ear piece tight on her ears to make sure that the call is done. “Ow yeah they had picked up the call, Thank god!” she murmured. But all she could hear was the dirty snore of achu and the moan of pachu. With the most affectionate voice munnu said “hey gals get up get up it’s already 6:15am we gata cook, wake the small kids and the big kids (husbands he he), make them to leave to offices and schools respectively no much time left”. A terrific voice broke out saying “oh my god, I have a meeting with a client today morning, this manager post really sucks". No wonder that was paachu who recently got promoted as Assistant Manager at the Corpus Bank. The treat for the same things was scheduled for today itself at the Vanilla Hut Restaurant at the Beach. The Next one to shake is achu the irresponsible one, both of then started to call “achu wake up, times up baby, just 16 more hours to go to bed again! Wake up now”. No use! Hmm. Suddenly munnus brain worked saying “hey achu, did you forgot that the treat for paachus promotion was planed for today” the word “treat” stroke her ear drum and she sprang up from the bed with widened eyes and the sign of exclamation above the head “TREAT???”. Yes achu. How could you forget the foody plan??..
Achu: oh yes. Thank god so we don’t have to cook for the dinner today.
Paachu: No no no you are absolutely wrong baby. The party will be just for us. We three will be there. No kids no husbands.
Munnu: Exactly, We will leave them at home. Idiot you don’t know that all such parties were celebrated with three of us first and later we will arrange a small dinner for friends and relatives later??
Achu: Yes I know.
Paachu: Then how did you ask that?
Achu: I was sleepy.
Paachu: Sleepy?? So you will forget the usual rules?
Achu: ??? Err I am sorry
Munnu: Paachu we can forgive this time.
Paachu: I am leaving you this time just because munnu said.
Achu: heeeeeee
Oh Shit! Its 6:30 now. Come on what are we waiting for lets start the battle. The three ladies kept the phone and ran. It’s really hard to write it all here. Believe me. What all happens in every house in the morning hours, It’s really unexplainable. I would rather put these signs instead – “!@$#%^&*(_(&&”.
Everything was done somehow by 9am. Cooking, bathing the kids then dressing them up, filling the lunch box, feeding them all, Ironing husbands dresses- “huh why cant they do this atleast by themselves, we have tones of other junks to do, this men are ridiculous!” :(. In between all the hurries theses three too made them well to go to their offices. Unlike other families the kids and the husbands will leave home first. And these unusual friends will go together, that too in rickshaw, sacrificing the facilities of luxury cars. [he he he].
Munnu on time got out from her house and waited out side, while achu was locking her door.
Munnu: Whats paachu doing?
Achu: Don’t know, might be examining her on the mirror.
Munnu: Yes meeting with the client.
Achu: Was saying, it’s an old NRI lady
Munnu: ah she will be screwed up in the evening
In between (Munnu took her mobile and ringed “what are you doing there?” “Nothing, just adjusting the sari; new one no? The cotton stuffy, it’s always terrible to manager when use first.)
Achu: God what ever happens with the client, I can’t postponed the treat.
Munnu: you are always crazy about food. Why can’t you think work is important than the treat.
Achu: what rubbish, how come work important, munnu? Neither work nor food is important. The treat which means; we three of us alone for some time including some foods is important.
Munnu: mmm mmm ok ok. You are always an expert in twisting sentences.
Paachu: what are you girls arguing about?
Munnu: nothing just some food matter (blinking her eyes at Achu)
We caught a rickshaw and directed the places to stop. Its now time for a chat.
Paachu: I don’t know how I will manage that old lady.
Munnu: Hey no worries. It will be easy. Just hear her needs and suggest.
Achu: Good luck dude for waste of time.
Paachu: Oh no achu please don’t tell like that I got to get this client, shit I am getting nervous.
Achu: Nervous? at this age? Don’t you feel shame to use that?
Munnu: hey you can’t proclaim like that. I still remember your first days at this office. You were so nervous and made at least 5 calls in a minute and we were comforting you.
Paachu: yeah. He he. You were complaining “the staffs are all too arrogant, they gave a huge task, I got to make new deals, o what will I do? I will resign.” Etc etc
(Munnu giggling uncontrollably)
Achu: (with a weird smile) yes, we almost passed 4 years. The years kept going. We became so busy.
Munnu: Do you both remember our train journeys? All wonderful days. No tensions, but didn’t know that, those were the peaceful days of our life.
Paachu: What’s wrong now? We are still together no? Thank god!
Achu; Yes but the lost days are lost..
Paachu: All we can do now is making these days setting good memories for some day in our future.
Munnu: Yeah say; after 05years we will be thinking ‘hey 05years back we talked the same way as we did today’.
Achu: Why does past always hurts.
Paachu: Stop it now don’t go further. Let’s talk something else. Ah achu, tell how’s this saree?
Munnu: Good color da. And this cotton saree is always good for bank people. What we say an “Indian official look”.
Achu: “India official look” new word to the dictionary.
Paachu: I agree with munnu. Indian officials wear cotton sarees, especially the govt officials. Isn’t it munnu.
Achu: what ever. Wear what ever in which you are comfortable.
All together: yaah that’s it..
Paachu left at Bank road while the rest of us drove to mg road. Both of our offices are there.
We got busy I our official stuffs. In between the planner/reminder one “munnu” put a call conference again at the lunch break. Say girls what we will cook if we go for the treat today? Our kids will starve and husbands too.
Paachu: Ayyo we ddint think much about it
Achu: yes. Shoo now bring a plan. Munnu think fast da.
Paachu: I have an idea. Little money consuming. Any problem?
Achu: what? Tell fast.
Paachu: We will order the food. He he he funny isn’t it.
Achu: oh who don’t know this idea?
Munnu: hey that’s the only possible way buddies.
Paachu: you don’t talk much ok. You couldn’t tell it first no?
Achu: it was in my mind. I thought you girls will be having better ideas.
Munnu: laughing- now stop it. This is the only way, achu you call the “South Indian Meal house” and order food.
Achu: ok .I will do that. But what to order? Give me the list.
Paachu: 02 kerala rice with fish curry for me.
Munnu: yes we can order the same for everyone.
Achu: paachu will (neelu-[Nilambari]) molu eat a full meal? One is enough no?
Munnu: oh my kanjoos. Its better be more than fewer.
Paachu: yes if anything left we will send it to your house for Bruno (doggy)
Achu: ayyeda..our bruno wont eat waste. ;)
Munnu: ha ha ha she cares Bruno more than nuno [Narayan] (her son) now stop fighting.
Paachu: (laughing) hmm so do everything as we said.
Achu: at what time you both will leave
Munnu: me at 5:30. you come to my office,achu.
Paachu: Ok you girls join ther. I will reach Vanilla directly. Cant think about the dumb traffic.
Achu: yes.hmm around 6:45 we will reach there. Paachu if you reach first please don’t mind to wait us.
Paachu: podi pulle [meaning-grass] he he
Achu: well how was the meeting paachu.
Paachu: what to say man. The lady shifted the meeting to afternoon.
Munnu: Bad luck. Anyway handle her well.
Achu: please try to please her before 5:30.ha ha
Munnu: (laughing) he he yeah..
Paachu: I will try to pack her.
Achu: you are an expert in that.
Paachu: munnu one more thing, when is niru mon[Nirupam-munnus son]PTA meeting.
Munnu: Its on next Monday,chettan will go..hmm ok then. Let’s complete our works.
The call ended.
We three had lunch fast and get back to the works. At around 5:15 I completed my works. Started to wind up and at 5:25 I left my place I walked through the busy crowded M.G road to munnus office. I waited at the reception and got a word from the receptionist that she’s with her team members, giving some instructions about a new project. Hmm this is the problem with the Project Managers. They call for a conference at any mid night. But the team members are lucky that their PM is the cool lady “Munnu”. Finally she came out speaking on her mobile phone. I didn’t interrupt.
She gestured to call the cab halted in front of her office. We got in. Munnu gasped and said “what a life no?” I said “what da life’s always like this, think ours is better”
Munnu: yes. You are right. The taxi stopped at a thousand signals. On the way we called paachu, and she told she left office just now.
We both reached at the Vanilla Hut Restaurant this location we always choose for specials occasions like this. A calm and quite place, completely different from the teen-style. It’s made in a different style. It has an extension of space over the water and its open air. The flooring is of wooden and you can hear your foot taps while you walk. Each table is at a good distance that assures privacy for gossiping. We took our table. Settle our bags on one chair. We could see the setting sun. While we make orders she rushed in. with a foolish smile she sat on her chair. Paachu suddenly broken in with the topic of pangu, the one who’s abroad.
Paachu: Hey girls pangus gona be a mom once again.
Achu and Munnu: is it? Shes carrying, she never told us.
Paachu: yes.she tried to call us last week but didn’t get it.
Munnu: yaa.i remember saw her missed call.
Achu: huh. Its time for her second baby to come..he he
Munnu: Feels to see her.
Paachu and Achu: yes. Very badly.
Munnu: Why can’t we call her now?
Paachu: best idea.
Munnu dialed her number and after few seconds she picked the call. Saying da I am at the hospital. Made an appointment for check up.
Munnu: Its oke. We will call later, called you just to say that we are missing you.
Pangu: Me too. Wish to see you all. I will be coming by next month second week.Pls tell paachu and achu also.
Munnu: Wow that’s big news. Yeah its better you come here. It helps you to take better care from mother’s house.
Pangu: hey the nurse calld out for me. Let me go and catch you all soon. Love you
Munnu: Love you too.
Call ended
Achu: What she’s telling?
Paachu: is she all right. Heard something like hospital and all.
Munnu: She’s fine, right now at the hospital for the check up. and she’s coming to native next month.
Achu & paachu: wow that’s great news
Paachu: She’s a poor stupid. no?
Achu & Paachu: hmm yeh.so now its time to schedule another treat after pangu comes.
Munnu: let her reach here first.
The waiter arrived with the dishes. The bowls of hot yummy fried rice and noodles came. Paachu gave me a naughty look. Eatables are ready on the table. Now what are you both waiting for? – munnu asked.
Achu jerked in and said “did you forget that on every special day you promised to allow us to have beer??”
Munnu with a crooked smile answered: when did I promise that? I don’t remember.
Paachu: you cant do like this.
Munnu: ok ok. I am not going to break the promise, you both are allowed today.
Paachu and me called the waiter loudly with excitement and ordered for two bottles of beer and one bottle pepsi.
Munnu: don’t you girls think that you ordered pretty much?
Achu: na I don’t think so. Its just two bottles. And half of a beer bottle is just froth.
Paachu: aysa hai. He he
Munnu: hmmmmm mmm..
The bottles arrived and we poured it in two glasses. and pepsin in another glass for munnu. We raised our glasses and said “cheers”. The food was delicious, we were involved in a lengthy talks comprising about every topics. Our family/ relative talks, kids/ school/competition talks, talked about visiting native, Husband/ his work, planning for holiday trips, and finally we came to the final topic of ours, our past days. The days we left over in the past, the days in which we could hear the whistle of the engine and the announcements at the railway station, the cracker days, the fights with the co- passengers, the travel on the steps in the evening, the vada-coffee -idly breakfast and lots more. We never knew that this once in the future we will sit like this and discuss all this recollecting one by one. The effect of the beer made me jovial than usual and it made serious effect on paachu. I laughed and chuckled while paachu made serious shrugs. We both started to confess to munnu, even though we know that all the small small mischief’s we hide from her are known to her. I snatched the bottle and poured, while paachu said. Its enough for you, I am totally tensed I will have the rest. I was taking the biggest gulp handed the bottle back to her. Munnu stared us with her kind loving face said: hey both of you please lower your voice. This is an open air restaurant. Everyone is noticing us. It’s not our old rusted train compartment. And it’s going to be 8:45pm we got to go home. Saying this munnu paid for the bill.
Oh yesss…paachu come on lets move on..are you fit? Paachu said: na na..no effect. Achu: Yeh for me too..this beer is not that good.. we lost our money..paachu:who lost whos money?? Munnu paid the bill..achu: ya munus money = achu +paachu money..evryone laugh out louder.
By now it was dark and the street lights on the shore line was all on. The breeze was stroking our hairs. We felt like we went back a 5 years and reached 11th of Dec 2009. But with eyes half filled we all realized that we can’t go back to those smooth, good, lovely, easy days again…
Tringggggggggggggg!!!! …the alarm clock rang together at three houses in the colony of Crispbase hill at Bangalore. It was 6am in the morning.
As usual the warmth of the bed didn’t allow munnu to settle her on her foot to start the household chores of the day.

Achu: (with a weird smile) yes, we almost passed 4 years. The years kept going. We became so busy.
Munnu: Do you both remember our train journeys? All wonderful days. No tensions, but didn’t know that, those were the peaceful days of our life.
Paachu: What’s wrong now? We are still together no? Thank god!
Achu; Yes but the lost days are lost..
Paachu: All we can do now is making these days setting good memories for some day in our future.
Munnu: Yeah say; after 05years we will be thinking ‘hey 05years back we talked the same way as we did today’.
Achu: Why does past always hurts.
Paachu: Stop it now don’t go further. Let’s talk something else. Ah achu, tell how’s this saree?
Munnu: Good color da. And this cotton saree is always good for bank people. What we say an “Indian official look”.
Achu: “India official look” new word to the dictionary.
Paachu: I agree with munnu. Indian officials wear cotton sarees, especially the govt officials. Isn’t it munnu.
Achu: what ever. Wear what ever in which you are comfortable.
All together: yaah that’s it..
Paachu left at Bank road while the rest of us drove to mg road. Both of our offices are there.
We got busy I our official stuffs. In between the planner/reminder one “munnu” put a call conference again at the lunch break. Say girls what we will cook if we go for the treat today? Our kids will starve and husbands too.
Paachu: Ayyo we ddint think much about it
Achu: yes. Shoo now bring a plan. Munnu think fast da.
Paachu: I have an idea. Little money consuming. Any problem?
Achu: what? Tell fast.
Paachu: We will order the food. He he he funny isn’t it.
Achu: oh who don’t know this idea?
Munnu: hey that’s the only possible way buddies.
Paachu: you don’t talk much ok. You couldn’t tell it first no?
Achu: it was in my mind. I thought you girls will be having better ideas.
Munnu: laughing- now stop it. This is the only way, achu you call the “South Indian Meal house” and order food.
Achu: ok .I will do that. But what to order? Give me the list.
Paachu: 02 kerala rice with fish curry for me.
Munnu: yes we can order the same for everyone.
Achu: paachu will (neelu-[Nilambari]) molu eat a full meal? One is enough no?
Munnu: oh my kanjoos. Its better be more than fewer.
Paachu: yes if anything left we will send it to your house for Bruno (doggy)
Achu: ayyeda..our bruno wont eat waste. ;)
Munnu: ha ha ha she cares Bruno more than nuno [Narayan] (her son) now stop fighting.
Paachu: (laughing) hmm so do everything as we said.
Achu: at what time you both will leave
Munnu: me at 5:30. you come to my office,achu.
Paachu: Ok you girls join ther. I will reach Vanilla directly. Cant think about the dumb traffic.
Achu: yes.hmm around 6:45 we will reach there. Paachu if you reach first please don’t mind to wait us.
Paachu: podi pulle [meaning-grass] he he
Achu: well how was the meeting paachu.
Paachu: what to say man. The lady shifted the meeting to afternoon.
Munnu: Bad luck. Anyway handle her well.
Achu: please try to please her before 5:30.ha ha
Munnu: (laughing) he he yeah..
Paachu: I will try to pack her.
Achu: you are an expert in that.
Paachu: munnu one more thing, when is niru mon[Nirupam-munnus son]PTA meeting.
Munnu: Its on next Monday,chettan will go..hmm ok then. Let’s complete our works.
The call ended.
We three had lunch fast and get back to the works. At around 5:15 I completed my works. Started to wind up and at 5:25 I left my place I walked through the busy crowded M.G road to munnus office. I waited at the reception and got a word from the receptionist that she’s with her team members, giving some instructions about a new project. Hmm this is the problem with the Project Managers. They call for a conference at any mid night. But the team members are lucky that their PM is the cool lady “Munnu”. Finally she came out speaking on her mobile phone. I didn’t interrupt.
She gestured to call the cab halted in front of her office. We got in. Munnu gasped and said “what a life no?” I said “what da life’s always like this, think ours is better”
Munnu: yes. You are right. The taxi stopped at a thousand signals. On the way we called paachu, and she told she left office just now.
We both reached at the Vanilla Hut Restaurant this location we always choose for specials occasions like this. A calm and quite place, completely different from the teen-style. It’s made in a different style. It has an extension of space over the water and its open air. The flooring is of wooden and you can hear your foot taps while you walk. Each table is at a good distance that assures privacy for gossiping. We took our table. Settle our bags on one chair. We could see the setting sun. While we make orders she rushed in. with a foolish smile she sat on her chair. Paachu suddenly broken in with the topic of pangu, the one who’s abroad.
Paachu: Hey girls pangus gona be a mom once again.
Achu and Munnu: is it? Shes carrying, she never told us.
Paachu: yes.she tried to call us last week but didn’t get it.
Munnu: yaa.i remember saw her missed call.
Achu: huh. Its time for her second baby to come..he he
Munnu: Feels to see her.
Paachu and Achu: yes. Very badly.
Munnu: Why can’t we call her now?
Paachu: best idea.
Munnu dialed her number and after few seconds she picked the call. Saying da I am at the hospital. Made an appointment for check up.
Munnu: Its oke. We will call later, called you just to say that we are missing you.
Pangu: Me too. Wish to see you all. I will be coming by next month second week.Pls tell paachu and achu also.
Munnu: Wow that’s big news. Yeah its better you come here. It helps you to take better care from mother’s house.
Pangu: hey the nurse calld out for me. Let me go and catch you all soon. Love you
Munnu: Love you too.
Call ended
Achu: What she’s telling?
Paachu: is she all right. Heard something like hospital and all.
Munnu: She’s fine, right now at the hospital for the check up. and she’s coming to native next month.
Achu & paachu: wow that’s great news
Paachu: She’s a poor stupid. no?
Achu & Paachu: hmm yeh.so now its time to schedule another treat after pangu comes.
Munnu: let her reach here first.
The waiter arrived with the dishes. The bowls of hot yummy fried rice and noodles came. Paachu gave me a naughty look. Eatables are ready on the table. Now what are you both waiting for? – munnu asked.
Achu jerked in and said “did you forget that on every special day you promised to allow us to have beer??”
Munnu with a crooked smile answered: when did I promise that? I don’t remember.
Paachu: you cant do like this.
Munnu: ok ok. I am not going to break the promise, you both are allowed today.
Paachu and me called the waiter loudly with excitement and ordered for two bottles of beer and one bottle pepsi.
Munnu: don’t you girls think that you ordered pretty much?
Achu: na I don’t think so. Its just two bottles. And half of a beer bottle is just froth.
Paachu: aysa hai. He he
Munnu: hmmmmm mmm..
The bottles arrived and we poured it in two glasses. and pepsin in another glass for munnu. We raised our glasses and said “cheers”. The food was delicious, we were involved in a lengthy talks comprising about every topics. Our family/ relative talks, kids/ school/competition talks, talked about visiting native, Husband/ his work, planning for holiday trips, and finally we came to the final topic of ours, our past days. The days we left over in the past, the days in which we could hear the whistle of the engine and the announcements at the railway station, the cracker days, the fights with the co- passengers, the travel on the steps in the evening, the vada-coffee -idly breakfast and lots more. We never knew that this once in the future we will sit like this and discuss all this recollecting one by one. The effect of the beer made me jovial than usual and it made serious effect on paachu. I laughed and chuckled while paachu made serious shrugs. We both started to confess to munnu, even though we know that all the small small mischief’s we hide from her are known to her. I snatched the bottle and poured, while paachu said. Its enough for you, I am totally tensed I will have the rest. I was taking the biggest gulp handed the bottle back to her. Munnu stared us with her kind loving face said: hey both of you please lower your voice. This is an open air restaurant. Everyone is noticing us. It’s not our old rusted train compartment. And it’s going to be 8:45pm we got to go home. Saying this munnu paid for the bill.
Oh yesss…paachu come on lets move on..are you fit? Paachu said: na na..no effect. Achu: Yeh for me too..this beer is not that good.. we lost our money..paachu:who lost whos money?? Munnu paid the bill..achu: ya munus money = achu +paachu money..evryone laugh out louder.
By now it was dark and the street lights on the shore line was all on. The breeze was stroking our hairs. We felt like we went back a 5 years and reached 11th of Dec 2009. But with eyes half filled we all realized that we can’t go back to those smooth, good, lovely, easy days again…

what is LOVE??
[ From ages the most commen question existed in human mind was nothing but this "What is LOve?".There are only very rare people who live single nd die single in the history.what does real love look and feel like? we can say that its whn two people seem to knw each other fo ages nd even in their previous lives. They can go on talkin nd talkin nd conversation nver lacks topics nd never gets dul. Or people dnt have to say nything becos they understand each othr without words. nd those moments, minutes nd even hours f silence ar never uncomfortable. True love is whn partners complete one another, when they ar together its peaceful, the whole other world with its sufferings nd problems doesn exist nd nothing even matters.]

[current time 12:56pm,Tue 08th Dec 2009]
the above seen is wot i wrote a few months back..and bcez f lack of time..kept it in the drafts itself..i thot i need to think a lot to write about love..i thot its something very tough..but to be frank..the concept has changed for me.. accordin to my belief,.thers nothing much to describe about "LOve"..Love has only one defenition in my dictionary now and thats "understanding"..my kootharas myt hav broke out f a forceful laugh,,readin it..i know..hmm..he he i m superprised at myself fr tis change..
lemme come back to the topic ;) ..love can never be fully described thats it.It's different to everyone in some way..In love you need not to be get forced by your partner to do somthing..yu automatiocally chages..wot happns is,your love says his/her wish and you tends to follow it..somtimes not knowing that you have sank up to your neck in love..its understanding which binds love..and its love which ease trouble times..Its not important to stay togather..nd love travels faster than light = (exactly 299792458 metres per second) he he :P . well i cudnt calculate d correct speed of love yet anyway [estimated spped of travel is 1234567891011121314151617181920 m/sec].. i guess,this cud be right heee.. :D .. you dont have to talk or touch,u ill feel their presence..i am embarrassed as you all are..and somtimes its tough to realize that my ethics and strategies are all wiped out from me..in know its a shame..but its a SWEET shame.. i never thot i wud go againts my conscience,..but love is that powerfull that it twist you..bend you..coil you..wrap you..roll you..pull you..push you..turn you..wrench you.. and all you will do is..be quite and act the commands..you are a "puppet" and you will be manipulated by LOVE..
All i want to say is,this is the first time i am experiencin wot true love is..it cant turn the whole world upside down as it is said or written in books..but sure it gives an aim in life..it chages even ones attitude..sometimes it can act as a remedy to kill idleness..
Lemme atleast announce to my circle of IK4 world that my search is completed..i reached my destination..

a QuesTioN..." WOt ar WE DesTineD fOr?"
Hi koothars after a break ur machu s bak wit her pencil nd eraser to start messing up d wall heeeeeeee :P . As always, today at tis moment too I m wondering hw fast d days nd months are movin. Once I hav been through a blog which showed d death meter in which d seconds kept on minus from the total duration of Life...it’s true nd I realize it now…we are losin our pracious time granded ..WE ALL ARE LOSERS infact..he he he..i used to feel that something is
Draining from me…i concluded .. that wsa TIME...I dont Fear death, but fearin about how to survive. We all are at the point of exhaustion....
I used to complain that no matter whatever I do, things kept turning out wrong. Then I started to blame God for how he has abandoned me.I know there would be people who are least blessed than me and still views themselves as capable and competent. Don’t know why I am always on the negative pole. ;)
I have not achieved anything I wanted in my life and I always blame myself for that,now i figured out where the problm begined. the fact is everybody including u nd me.. believe that we are destined for more. Inside, in the core of hearts, we know that where we are in life now is not where we should be…not where we dreamed to be. We never realized our destiny.
Our fault is nothing but we never work for our dreams;no complaints!!!!coz i kno some of us are tied in family commitments while others in some other vows. May be it’s because we are born in such a place where women are seen as caging creatures. And for the same reason we are afraid to act as we wish. The society is diffrent, people are braught up with some odd beliefs nd Prejudices. There are limits in protesting too. However I believe we are enjoying our best, at least a thousand folds better than any other girls in our place. We enjoy Sunday outings, we go for movies, we go where ever possible within the boundaries and I am proud for that. As our greatest Paulo Coelho says it’s all about destiny. We must find what we are born for. But a question mark [?] still remains there. How we will find it? Lemme just undergo a study about it. Give me some time... he he he
Wordings of a great person as follows:
[Anyone can make great strides towards advancing in the direction of their destiny – but it takes a definite shift in attitude, a definite shift in action, and a bit of courage…]
Are we capable to do as what says with in the above square brackets? Well lets see what we can do after November 29/2009 our day. I know like me, you girls also started count down!and the Veega trip..we must not change the plan..and As I commented for munus last post lets just plan fr a lunch somewhere where we can discuss about our past days since we made the pledge. Let’s estimate how many changes we acquired in the period… start to list it babys!!
["We are travelers on a cosmic journey,stardust,swirling and dancing in the eddies and whirlpools of infinity. Life is eternal. We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other, to meet, to love, to share.This is a precious moment. It is a little parenthesis in eternity."
— Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist)....]

A day to "Home of FAITH"
This is a short outline about a days experience to a child care centre run by a Christian missionary in Cochin. The idea was put forward by our dearest soumya(munnu)- the one who always keeps her hands open for people who needs any kind of support.
Unlike other days it was a day which kept me frantic from the day break itself. I traveled alone to Cochin since paachu was absent- busy celebrating her birthday with her husband at Bangalore and Munnu who left the place early by the first train. My inner self was totally frozen with the thought of being unsuccessful in everything, after arriving at my destination station I managed myself to pull myself out of the hugh stream of commuters. As always I preferred to walk till my work place. Walking alone is one of my favorite habits. I find it as a time for decision making. The thought about changing the job rolled up and down inside my mind. As all these days, today also I was bad at work, killed every valuable seconds lost in thought keeping all those pending works accumulated to be a mountain of burden for some other day.
By about 11:30am I got call from munnu reconfirming about the visit to the child care centre located at Kakkanad, Cochin. I was actually not aware about what I was going to experience there, even though I have seen it in some movies. Even if I always think about donating or helping people who lacks support and are been ignored by the society, It was for the first time in my life I have been to such a charity related place. I couldn’t contribute anything apart from my presence today but made a decision that I will save form this neglected ones further.
I left my office by 2 pm soon after having idly from my colleague’s lunch box. The sun was hitting on my brains so hard that I felt my vision was getting blurred. I got in to the bus and paid for the ticket to palarivattom where munnu directed me to reach. Everything has a particular usual fashion of its own even the traffic at Cochin; it was terrifying as always. I stepped down at my stop while a silver color versa was waiting for me from a few minutes earlier. I joined munnu along with her two friends- who worked with her in her previous company, two youth with a different light in their eyes. Such people are jeopardizing from the phase of earth. We drove through the neat roads to kakknad where the famous info park is situated.
We parked our car on the pavement in front of “Home of Faith”. Like all other Christian establishments this place also had a well set garden in front of it. The other three people in my company were frequent visitors of this institution. We were greeted by two sisters; Sisters Anila and Sister Tresa with a simple smile on their lips. The glitter in their eyes made my soul chilled. Noticing the familiar faces, some kids rush out from their classes and climb over ishaq who appeared so kind to those children. Two boys who seemed smart came forward to me and grabbed the packets of chocolates we bought from the reliance fresh market in-between the drive. All the children were handicapped. The first scene itself made my heart sank. This visit was an eye opener for a person like me who always highlight the simple drawbacks, the faults which can overcome putting a little hard work. As compared to them we are blessed with everything. We are capable to walk, run, sit, stand, write, read, eat, wash, play, everything by our own. “We are emperors of Independence”. A boy called bipin showed us the way to a class room where other boys were in. Seeing the small boy distributing the chocolates other kids also gathered around to receive their fraction. I felt myself getting liter. We sat down on the floor with those kids of god and enjoyed the conversation. The most pathetic situation is being seen as a mess by those whom you love, those kids were left over by their relatives because of the same reason that they were born in atypical physical condition. I couldn’t bear the wetness under their eyes, that too in this small age, at which a child require full care and support from his/her family. We bathe in extravagance, always spoon fed never know what real suffering is. I will say the greatest wealth we possess is our physical condition -The blessing with no disfigurement. We never think about those who are physically or mentally challenged, how they survive. We are bored of the luxuries while a group of god’s creations same as every one of us are struggling to meet their basic needs. The trip made a Hugh change in me. Since then whenever I am sad I will think about those miserable faces which have the traces of uncertainty. I am happy for a single reason that I could help three of the kids to walk-who are incapable to walk by their own. I felt their core bouncing with delight when their icy feet get in touch with the warm skin of Mother Earth. At some moments we never know the grains of hour glass grabbed so many minutes from us. We were approaching 4 o’ clock in the evening- time for us to leave the dwelling of God. I never felt I can cheer up someone only with my presence, but that day I felt proud that I could do it. I consider it as an achievement. If ever I feel I have no one to care me, I am sure I will return to this place for ever where I can give care receiving just love in return.
We started to set up ourselves to leave. It was indeed a difficult fact. We managed some how to induce the kids that we will come the next day. Some eyes were already soaked by that time. I felt a strange wisp of air at my chest. The others were used to this feeling but as this is the first time for me it troubled me for the rest of the day. I am feeling grateful to myself for having a better life. I thought, the problems I faced were the worst in the world but it was nothing as compared to theirs. I could hardly raise my hands to wave them.
We got in the vehicle. I didn’t have the courage to turn back at them once again. I took decided, that as long as I am in control of myself, I will return and make visit of this place again and again. As we drove across the big building lined roads I was mind over flowing thinking about a plan to support this kind of organizations, were life is quite unusual than ours.
I am happy that there are institutions like “Home of faith” to encourage them and to give hope and support for their future. There is another foundation called SOS Children’s Village at Trichur where they take care of orphan children’s in a peculiar way from other orphanages in the country. A place which made us loves to stay there at least a night. Here they assists children in schooling and growing, and teaches them how to be successful, stable adults in the working communities when they leave the House. It is constructed in a different manner. They have several houses in the compound. In each house a “Mother” too who will look after the kids. It’s unique. The idea is brilliant. A truly homely atmosphere... Thank you so much munnu for taking initiative and energizing us to take resolution in beginning servicing children.
I invite everyone for your valuable support. Please find the contact details below:

I was actually not aware about what I was going to experience there, even though I have seen it in some movies. Even if I always think about donating or helping people who lacks support and are been ignored by the society, It was for the first time in my life I have been to such a charity related place. I couldn’t contribute anything apart from my presence today but made a decision that I will save form this neglected ones further.
I left my office by 2 pm soon after having idly from my colleague’s lunch box. The sun was hitting on my brains so hard that I felt my vision was getting blurred. I got in to the bus and paid for the ticket to palarivattom where munnu directed me to reach. Everything has a particular usual fashion of its own even the traffic at Cochin; it was terrifying as always. I stepped down at my stop while a silver color versa was waiting for me from a few minutes earlier. I joined munnu along with her two friends- who worked with her in her previous company, two youth with a different light in their eyes. Such people are jeopardizing from the phase of earth. We drove through the neat roads to kakknad where the famous info park is situated.
We parked our car on the pavement in front of “Home of Faith”. Like all other Christian establishments this place also had a well set garden in front of it. The other three people in my company were frequent visitors of this institution. We were greeted by two sisters; Sisters Anila and Sister Tresa with a simple smile on their lips. The glitter in their eyes made my soul chilled. Noticing the familiar faces, some kids rush out from their classes and climb over ishaq who appeared so kind to those children. Two boys who seemed smart came forward to me and grabbed the packets of chocolates we bought from the reliance fresh market in-between the drive. All the children were handicapped. The first scene itself made my heart sank. This visit was an eye opener for a person like me who always highlight the simple drawbacks, the faults which can overcome putting a little hard work. As compared to them we are blessed with everything. We are capable to walk, run, sit, stand, write, read, eat, wash, play, everything by our own. “We are emperors of Independence”. A boy called bipin showed us the way to a class room where other boys were in. Seeing the small boy distributing the chocolates other kids also gathered around to receive their fraction. I felt myself getting liter. We sat down on the floor with those kids of god and enjoyed the conversation. The most pathetic situation is being seen as a mess by those whom you love, those kids were left over by their relatives because of the same reason that they were born in atypical physical condition. I couldn’t bear the wetness under their eyes, that too in this small age, at which a child require full care and support from his/her family. We bathe in extravagance, always spoon fed never know what real suffering is. I will say the greatest wealth we possess is our physical condition -The blessing with no disfigurement. We never think about those who are physically or mentally challenged, how they survive. We are bored of the luxuries while a group of god’s creations same as every one of us are struggling to meet their basic needs. The trip made a Hugh change in me. Since then whenever I am sad I will think about those miserable faces which have the traces of uncertainty. I am happy for a single reason that I could help three of the kids to walk-who are incapable to walk by their own. I felt their core bouncing with delight when their icy feet get in touch with the warm skin of Mother Earth. At some moments we never know the grains of hour glass grabbed so many minutes from us. We were approaching 4 o’ clock in the evening- time for us to leave the dwelling of God. I never felt I can cheer up someone only with my presence, but that day I felt proud that I could do it. I consider it as an achievement. If ever I feel I have no one to care me, I am sure I will return to this place for ever where I can give care receiving just love in return.
We started to set up ourselves to leave. It was indeed a difficult fact. We managed some how to induce the kids that we will come the next day. Some eyes were already soaked by that time. I felt a strange wisp of air at my chest. The others were used to this feeling but as this is the first time for me it troubled me for the rest of the day. I am feeling grateful to myself for having a better life. I thought, the problems I faced were the worst in the world but it was nothing as compared to theirs. I could hardly raise my hands to wave them.
We got in the vehicle. I didn’t have the courage to turn back at them once again. I took decided, that as long as I am in control of myself, I will return and make visit of this place again and again. As we drove across the big building lined roads I was mind over flowing thinking about a plan to support this kind of organizations, were life is quite unusual than ours.
I am happy that there are institutions like “Home of faith” to encourage them and to give hope and support for their future. There is another foundation called SOS Children’s Village at Trichur where they take care of orphan children’s in a peculiar way from other orphanages in the country. A place which made us loves to stay there at least a night. Here they assists children in schooling and growing, and teaches them how to be successful, stable adults in the working communities when they leave the House. It is constructed in a different manner. They have several houses in the compound. In each house a “Mother” too who will look after the kids. It’s unique. The idea is brilliant. A truly homely atmosphere... Thank you so much munnu for taking initiative and energizing us to take resolution in beginning servicing children.
