To the "Aunt of 21st Century"

Every family member is unique in their own way. I come from a big family where my mother has dozens of cousins, and all my aunts are my close friends in the family. I talk and share a lot with them more than my cousins. Every aunt plays a unique role in my life. One supports my naughtiness, one gives me strength in my failures, and other helps out to escape from unwanted things. Aunts usually are very important part of our lives. They are the ones who always be there to listen to me.

In this lot, I am blessed with a wonderful aunt (i.e my Peddamma - my mom’s elder sister), she is a brilliant lady, known for her style in the family, a lady with fine charm and intelligence. Though she is 63 years old, her heart and brain is always young. She is brave woman with kind heart and shows pure love on all of us. She has broad thinking, brilliant in facing & assessing  life situations.She is only aunt who can make skype call in our family. 

 

Today I regret for not having her with us :(

I opened my eyes, wiping my tears, 

Looking at the stars, 

A voice from sky said
“Her work on Earth is done.”

Dear Pedamma,

I MISS,

Our sit outs in your lawn and

All our long talks, about your childhood memories

Naughty stories of all mamas childhood

Tiring shopping days

That home facials and pedicure sessions

That long days we spent looking at old photographs and your silk saris

Small scary rides of us on kinetic Honda

Playing dumb charades,movies at Club

Long hours at beauty parlours

That Fear of sharing my secrets

Gossips we share

Homemade panner, milk shakes and special burji made by you.
 

I regret that I didn’t get the chance to say my last good-bye.I didn’t think you could ever leave us so early. I hope this pain would disappear.

 

I know that you are at eternal home with god; he wanted you back. At this time you may be standing at golden gates of heaven and looking down on us. Probably you may be angry on us for crying, we shouldn’t be crying because this is not how you would want it to be.

It has hurt all of us when you left that day and our hearts became sore. But I promise, we try hard and will become strong and get through this and make you proud of us

We will hold all the memories deep in our hearts. You will always be remembered every single day. 

 

WE MISS YOU...

Do we need a Role model?

In walk of our lives, we meet many people, learn many things from many. Sometimes many inspire us to achieve certain goals and few remain as our role models in life. 

Here, what triggered in my mind is “Do we need a Role Model?” someone has yearned for some goals and achieved it with his level of problems and solutions which he has applied. If so, why should one follow role model, isn’t it like following someone else dreams and trying to achieve them .

Are we not restricting our self wanting to be like someone? closing our self and just seeing role model goal as ours? 

Don't just dream that wasn’t yours, Thinking that it would bring  the happiness as it brought to others.

So what do you say?

Take care of yourself...

I feel things are going too fast and I have to try hard to pull time to breath. The other night, I was thinking that, I have reached mid of the year, when I look back I don't remember how the days passed, weekdays go in working at office and weekends with the other core works.Life is busy and it always pulls me in million directions.

I see many young people who are raising their families at younger age with huge responsibilities, probably they never find time to take care of themselves.All their energies go in to helping and taking care of families & other things. I hear from many about their feelings of helplessness to dedicate some amount of time for themselves. Most of the active day goes in  working, few more hours in family cores. They get irritated with the ups and downsin life and lose all control.

I'm wondering how people deal and  How is everyone else doing?

Still the question triggering in  my mind is "Is it bad to be selfish and take care of oneself ?"  to me it is not, one must take care of themselves to help others. Pull out time for yourself, do something which makes you happy. You can rejuvenate and can be more effective & efficient in handling your families & your life.

That is what I feel? what is your opinion?

So, you are not a S/W engineer?

Dialling a number….

Tring tring tring….

Me: Hi

He: hello

Me: I saw your advertisement on the club membership. I would like to know the details as I wish to join for TT on weekend

He: sure madam, membership costs you Rs. 1500 and every month its Rs. 300 and we have trainers too

Me: Oh that is so nice; let me know the formalities, so that I can drop in to your office today evening

He: where do you work?

Me: a Civil engineering company

He: what is ur designation

Me: Urban Planner

He: Oh you are not a software engineer. Sorry madam, this club gives membership to S/w Engineers from MNCs

Me: WTF??(To self)

Me: I asked why?

He: Security & affordability madam and people here are all s/w engineers...

Me: Thank you, better u mention this in your Add to save our time

What do you think about this? I have met many half knowledge people, who think S/w engineering is the only industry that exists. Come on, there are much better ones too exist. If not how other services are being done to the citizens. The wrong impression they have on other industries is disgusting….people think that s/w engineers are the only ones who earn a lot than any one...

 I hope these kind of people will grow up and think about this...

What if there were no men in the World????

In middle of some discussion , someone told according to 2011 census sex ratio is  940 females per 1000 males... My mind was completely  heated up because of  prolonged discussions... when I heard of sex ratio concept I was wondering what if men doesn't exist in this world?

Just imagine, how it would be if God has not created man for woman.... Holy shit.... Think! Think..

It scares me, Imagine living whole life with women.. Grrrrrr.. same old lipsticks, shinny gloss, rose perfumes, pinks & red everywhere, floral printed fabrics, Unlimited gossips... Its pathetic .. 

I seriously wonder if men doesn't exist, then Who will praise us when we dress nicely? who will flirt with us, Who will say its okay baby when we are sick, who will hold our hand in the evening for a romantic walk?who will scold us saying "you dumbo"? who will hold our shopping bags, who will take us everywhere on their bike? How can we use credit card without repaying ? who will makes us feel secure in their Hug?  Phewww.... Ufff.. on and so on...

Coming to the biological threats,imagine..how can we become mothers?? Well do we introduce any new technology for producing babies?  if so, who it would be?

Ahhh!! the world looks so Dull and Sick without men...

Thats what I feel.. what do you all have to say about this??

I appreciate God for creating men  in this world & I Thank him for that :P  ...

P.S: 

1. Term "WE" Refers to Girls &  ladies

2. Office on weekends make u feel sick and u turn out to be foolishly intelligent... this post says it   out.. Ahh I have to kill another 30  min more here :(

3. I am happy that i have put on 2 kgs weight.. Irrelevant to many of you, but still recording it on my Blog TL..

A Beautiful Morning

I promised my friend that we both will get up early and go for a cup of coffee in the morning. But this awesome weather didn't allowed me to realize that the sun is already out there. I opened my eyes, searched for mobile and sent a text  saying "sorry", he replied “that’s fine dear, catch some more sleep”. 

I got up looked out of the window, chill breeze touched my face, felt what a beautiful morning, I sat in balcony with a cup of coffee, listening to my fav songs, watching the flock of pigeons... 

The morning was bright, after a very long hot summer, Hyderabad is having such an awesome weather. I felt to break the routine, but cannot bunk office. 

I felt positive vibrations around me, I thought, I need this harmony throughout the day, 

      So Just for Today ...

• I will be happy and smile at everyone. 
• I will try to accept what I am 
• I will call an old friend and say “Hi” 
• I will say sorry for someone whom I have hurt in past 
• I will help someone who is in need 
• I will be thankful to god & say a thanks prayer 
• I will not let anything upset me. 
• I will enjoy the traffic. 
• I will do my work honestly 
• I will not allow negative thoughts 
• I will not spend too much money. 
• I will learn a something new. 
• I will keep faith in the god’s plans and accept what life brings.

Love & Light to All...

Teach People How to Treat You

Many times I feel why I have allowed someone to treat me that way? Why am I letting it happen that way and be tolerant? 

Just like me I guess many people do think, I heard people saying that “people use me, take advantage of me”, they are taken for granted and get hurt from the other person easily. 

While thinking of this I was wondering if I am complaining about this all the time, there must be something wrong with me. May be I have not taught the other person, how to treat me. 

The problem with me is I am very good at tolerating people for no reason and can’t be rude. Well in return what am I getting? I am sure I deserve to be treated with the same respect as what I give to others. I should define boundaries; it is me who can draw a line to determine how close I can be with a person to maintain a decent relationship. 

So I think I shall be clever and teach the other person, how to treat me from the beginning  so that things won’t go wrong later. 

Bottom line is one must treat themselves as if they are wonderful and shall not allow others to walk on you. Be good to yourself, because if you feel good about yourself then other people will treat you with respect. 

It’s we who teach people how to treat us!

P.S: Today morning,I got up early, was just enjoying nature sipping a cup of coffee in the balcony, a weird random thought/feeling  flashed my mind and this post took birth from there.
