Feelings

 Today’s traffic is such a nightmare. Not to mention the traffic at peak hours!! Moving at a snails pace you just don’t know when you will reach your destination. With this in mind everyone is in hurry to squeeze through  , least bit bothered about the person next to you never realising he/ she too is equally in a hurry . And in this commotion the unwanted traffic jam is what you see. You are stuck neither can you come out nor can you move an inch forward. Now you find yourself cursing the fellow opposite you “ isko bhi abhi aana tha , thoda Rukjaata toh kya bigadta”  never understanding that he too is mumbling angrily the same thing about you.!! With this traffic jam  already creating chaos around , you get out of your gaadi  only to see people on bikes from behind squeezing through as if he doesn’t know what’s going on here and blocks  the traffic even more instead of making way for others coming from the opposite direction. It’s almost half an hour now...

  Have you tried saying hi to yourself?? Asked yourself how are you doing?? Had a chat with your own self?? Sounds funny hein naaa!! But I swear it’s a wonderful feeling to be friends with oneself. You don’t need to think twice what you speak . You are not lonely , you have company of you the person you love the most.   First thing in the morning say to yourself , hi me !! Hope you had a good sleep in the night . Just look at the smile that brings to your face. Say I love you to the moon and back, and again you are smiling!! Amazing isn’t it. Not that there is no love around , the world is full of energy love and laughter , but you need to love yourself to realise this.   A lot of work gets done while being in ones own company , it empowers you , energises you, makes you think . Some may call it being alone but no , believe me it’s just being with oneself , understanding  ,learning life’s lessons.   You are the best person to know what your heart wants ...

    Pune a city of renowned musicians , theatre personalities ,a place for artists, young aspirants and equally an educational hub. Naturally I was too excited to be coming here to stay  after my graduation, as my father had a transferable job . So we were here until my father's next transfer . Little did I know that I would be staying here longer as I fell in love with the vibrant energy that the city has.   I didn't know a bit of Marathi then . Somehow we managed to converse  either with Hindi or through the  language of action . This was the time when I got introduced to the typical Puneri  Marathi.Well ,there are different dialects in Marathi too as we have in Kannada.  So when you greet a person and exchange hellos and how are yous , the person would say  chaaan(pronounced in a singing tone )with a smile . And his/her next sentence would be tumhi kase aahaat ?? Sagla chaaaan (again with swaying and singing tone) . I would be surpris...

In today’s  fast changing world , women need to be financially secure. Today’s lifestyle is different. It is a lot more demanding , unpredictable. In such a situation all a woman can think of is to be secured financially , mentally strong to face any kind of   circumstance without fear.   First and foremost she needs to educate herself with the required  knowledge. There was a time when people thought educating a girl child was not required  , now it’s all history. Bina graduation Ke toh koi poochta nahi aaj kal. In fact girls now are career oriented , they want to specialise in various fields.   The younger generation is a lot more informed , knowledgable ,smarter than the older generation. Thanks to technology , I mean not just technology but time too . As I mentioned earlier aaj ka time alag hein .  There are still women who take the option of being housewives  . The point is not about being housewives or career minded woman .Al...

  More than three decades of my life have flown  in a flash and here I  am looking back to the days when we have witnessed  the gradual transformation that  the world of communication has taken. it keeps us wondering how things have changed due to the coming of gadgets.  There's no doubt communication is a lot more easier and speedy  , but at the same are we completely dependent on these devices?? there was a time when we had these instruments and it didn't really matter.  I remember having read in history books or watched on the television serials how difficult it was in the older days to send and receive information or messages , news . People travelled distances personally , and sometimes an important news would remain untold in time.   The concept of posting letters and a post man coming to our doorstep must have taken taken years together to come into existence. Writing lettres had been an easy tool for everyone , it was a medium of ...
