Folks here i am!!!!!!
happy belated bdays to all who
celebrated their getting a yr older !!!
Niveditaa,,,i like ur sense of humour,,,,u have managed to pump in a lot of enthu wid just one pic,,,pl post some more!!!
havent gone too much into the past wid the blog,,,will do so sooner than later.
Udaya,,,that was really some nostalgic memories u dug up....and managed to revive a load more from the rest.
arun ,,,hope yr mom is doing well,,,
Fai,,,u r the one constant factor d blog can rely on.
not to mention Vims efforts at digging ppl out of somewhere!!!!!!and also nudging me time n again to post !!
btw,,,where is our novelist Nargis,,,missing ???
well,,,Nivedita is not from my lot,,,,i may be a yr younger in school,,,,,,,
it seems that the batch of 76/77 is more energetic,,,
I am currently reading THE POWER OF NOW,,,,,the author exhorts one to ---die to the past each minute,,,,,and refer to it when abs relevant to d present....
and in thisPRESENT,,, Viaml has helpsed us all recreate the past.............long forgotten incidents,,,insignificant they seemed in our young minds,,,,have the power of giving us small bundles of joy,,,,,,insights,,,,pleasure,,,,,,,d joy of sharing,,,,,and best is in this material world,,,we just have to open our hearts and mind.
on a small note to Kausty,,,,money can buy u nursing care,,,and the modern era gives us a lot of facilities to care for the old,,,,but dear its def not GUILT....that makes us care for our parents,,,,but our traditional indian bonding,,,,(becoz of which the blog is on in the first place)
and LOVE and RESPECT for them.....
btw,,,appu dear has her v own nursing home,,,where if need be,,,we can conviniently lodge the our set of parents ,,IF THE NEED BE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
also at this age,,,one does need a lil space to be on yr own,,,,,why even i need time off from Milind,,,who afetr 4 mnths home,,,,,,,,,,has the loving wifey asking him to don the CAPTAINS cap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry Aashu,
I didn't mean to say that we do not love & respect our parents....that I dont think is taught in any culture, Indian or not.
What I meant is that the practical aspects can be taken care of more easily nowadays than that was awailable for our parents' generation, which can be used to give our parents enough space to live an independent and fulfilling life with thier friends and family, while the children can also get space.
As you said.....even you need space from hubby dear !!
Yo chill!!!!!its good to have a discussion,,,its healthy,,,see sometimes,,,we r too set in our mind set,,isnt it??
so when we exchange views,,,we also r giving each other a chance to see the other aspects too!
so pl get the sorry off,,,,,my no's of exclamation marks mean that i am taking it lightly,,,,,so u better watch out for those....d more d merrier!!!!!!!!!ha,ha.
Kausty, you got well rounded views man!
Where were you all these days, Paani Ki Raani?
