Ms. Suzy, knocked the officedoor of MD of Anand 'O' Anand Ltd just when he was having his lunch. (Mr. Anand was health consious and followed a  strict diet regime. He followed a healthy schedule everyday. Starting his day with a morning walk followed by regular exercise, having healthy breakfast and proper intake of juices with good food throughout the day. Generally, no one dared to enter the cabin during lunch break and interrupt Mr.Anand.) He was a foodie, everyone knew. When Suzy slightly opened the door, she was surprised the food was on the table and there were drops of tear in the eyes of Mr.Anand.... When Suzy asked the reason, he narrated........... When I was a very small... somewhere in I/II standard, I remember I had a high degree of possessiveness for my dabba. Whatever was mine, I never liked to share with anyone. We used to love the biscuits,  pastries and chocolates send in by parents (in fact we were taught to be selfish for our da...

I am sure the above three photos must have brought back your childhood memories back in a flash.  The story continues........ After collecting the caps, the cap seller moved and as one says narrated his story (read experience) to his son, that very night and everyone in the family had a hearty laugh. Now, after few days the son took on the responsibility of handling the business. He was passing through a similar jungle and as warned by his father, he decided not to rest in between. So, at the outskirts of the jungle, he sat beneath a tree, had his lunch and decided to have a nap. Just when his eyes regained consciousness  he could not believe what his eyes were seeing. The same story being repeated. All the monkeys had taken his entire booty and were merrily enjoying. Now, the son was not  worried for he knew the trick to get back his entire lot. He immediately threw the only cap on his head and was anxiously waiting for...

Its me... a Rain drop....   The time our journey started from within the cloud We were destined to travel in a crowd Every other droplet was a friend, no one a foe Had this simple thought, where are we supposed to go Travelling from such a height made us scare But everyone of us was enjoying the travel in the air One spoke, I should fall in a farming land Help the farmer to enrich his share of sand Other said, I would be happy to nurture a tree which helps the human race to survive without a fee Next came the voice, I would be happy to serve anywhere we may not get all that we wish for here or there This was very true, as majority of us would be of no usuage Drained down along with mud deep into the sea or even a drainage The lucky few among us would land safe without any hurl the luckiest one who falls in a shell and  become a pearl We all are the same in all aspect Our value depends on the company we get

We friends, who were bitten by the social service bug, decided to visit an old age home this sunday. Being the first time for me, all different thoughts surrounded my head and naturally made me restless yesterday. Could not sleep properly due to anxiety. (as happens for all first-timers!!!) Naturally, I was the first to reach the meeting point too in the morning. Once we reached 'Maitri Old Age Home', the first hour passed away like a minute with the trustees of the old age calling upon all the house-mates for breakfast. We voluntarily served the breakfast to all and even cleaned up the vessels as a good gesture. Next everyone there assembled in the ground as they all knew they had visitors. The Old age Home provided shelter to around 70 people. We had practiced few songs, dances and one of us had even practiced mimicry of few Bollywood artists. Though none of us were perfect, our imperfection made them go head over heels. We were all happy to see them...

A teacher is one blessed soul who goes through all emotions in one academic year. Throughout the year, he always enjoys the tag of being 'Hitler' (one needs to be strict enough for the students to pay attention in the classroom). So Being Angry Young man is shadow of the personality of a teacher. Some days of the year, he shows the brighter side of his life, wherein he laughs or passes on jokes in the classroom, cheers up the entire students while teaching which makes the lecture more entertaining. During examination days, he plays the role of a motivator to the core. As the connectivity with students increases, the more examples are in stock in the minds of a teacher, which when shared at right moment, helps students to overcome the tide of anxiety especially those related to appearing exams. In the modern world, with more and more youngsters taking up the challenge of being a teacher, their role in a student's life has grossly increased  as students can easily put ...

Today morning it so happened that I went to attend d marriage of a distant cousin accompanied by daughter and parents. Specially mentioning marriage because a young mind tends to get bored while watching all the customs except if it is your friends marriage where you are sort of king in control of many aspects of marriage. Here parents introduce you to oldies (read relatives) with all adjectives in the world for you and you have to keep a smiling face throughout. Thank god, I was already bundled into nupital knots else the proposition would have altogether different, with each person looking like a hawk searching for next easy prey. As I said earlier, my inner self took control over me soon and I asked permission to leave early from the scene. Coming out of the marriage hall, I quickly caught the first rickshaw I got and told him to take me to the nearest railway station. While being in the rick I went down the memory lane..... When we are young our attitude towards life is total...

Valentine's day, Valentine's day, Valentine's day You are so unique because you make everyone pray Your craze starts right from school days in the modern world No surprise that old aged and youngsters are involved in your fold St.Valentine never knew his message of love would be so popular that fundamentalist will have to protest against this day by creating panic and fear But love, as it is very simple, honest and clear finds a way in the hearts of youngsters in remembering their dear Definitely, youngsters should always know that love is such a pure emotion on the d-day, true lover even lacks words to express his love, being in full tension The problem today is many have taken things for granted among some of the youth The 'moral police' being agitated try to discipline everyone in east, west, north or south A simple solution is enjoy the day with the beloved ones as much as you can As a matter of fact no one can cause any damage to love or cre...

Every person living in this world needs 'power'. The 'Power' to survive, the 'Power' to struggle, the power to overcome sorrows, the power to get up after a fall. As everyone agrees, the mental power is bigger than physical power. The yogi's  had this divine knowledge and they overcame almost all their obstacles by themselves. Even those who have power needs to be reminded of their inner powers at appropriate time for them to take full advantage of such inner strength (Yups.. you guessed it right... The Powerful Hanuman) Everyone of us is a stuffed with lot of power unknown to us. We make use of it too, again unknowingly, when appropriate time comes. Even the laziest creature on earth, whose biggest passion is sleeping, raises to the occasion much before time the day he has to go on a picnic. If the scheduled time to start is 5.00 am on a chilly morning, rest assured 99% members of the group are guaranteed to assemble much before time. (We should ...

Mr. Ravi a daily laborer, used to travel to his workplace by walk. Thinking about all the adversities of life he faced in daily life, he stopped at a railway crossing. A railway crossing, a signal are places on roads wherein every person, rich or poor, has to stop. No amount of any kind of influence can help you get over the other side easily. Such stops are important more so because everyone can continue his process of thinking which he generally does while travelling by road. Gazing each other is one of the best ways to get over time. Like others, Mr. Ravi too was involved gazing people around him. Just then, a person arrived on bicycle near him. The next thought obviously that came to his mind was 'How lucky this chap is to have a bicycle?'. I will put in all efforts and earn some extra bucks to purchase a new bicycle at the earliest. No sooner, the bicycle rider stopped, he gazed around to find a person on a two-wheeler. Not being an exception, he too thought, 'T...

The advantages of being flexible are always more than expected A flexible person as compared to a stubborn is more accepted Being Flexible means always ready to adjust as per situation Here, personal  wishes and choices takes a back seat without litigation A flexible person adds to option of a captain of any team For he can perform any task and make the captain beam A Flexible person adds to the overall value of self and  his teammate It motivates others to follow him, thereby brighten the team's fate However, Being Flexible is not an  everybody's forte or an easy task For it demands regular sacrifices and to hide true emotions behind mask Further, all the sacrifices of a flexible person may go in vain if the efforts put in by him are doubted as if he is to make a personal gain Naturally being flexible is bound to bring a bad name in the beginning As others feel it is pampering the bosses, for the sake of their praising Others envy the pres...

           All the readers of my blog, an unique experience that I had in the past one week is worth a mention and hence this note today. One of the newest school in Kalyan (East) currently in peak form announced distribution of forms for Nursery on 28th January, 2013 from 8 am to 10am.            Now, what impact does it have on the minds of the concerned student... Nothing :-).. Honestly. He is hardly concerned where his parents are going to send him to build his career, to build the career of another nation builder.... Whooo!!!!... but the apathy of their parents is worth mentioning. Some poor people (not in money terms),  cannot curtail their anxiety, nor can control the anxiousness (this is a serious problem), assembled near the school gate right from 26th January, 2013 evening.... You may be thinking what a great deal. They have to actually spend the next 36 hours at the same place including two nights and one day....

The work that brings peace to heart The work that brings rest to mind The work that brings a smile on the face No matter how much laborious  No matter how much time consuming No matter how much pain staking The work while being done makes one forget the moon and sun The work on completion Brings about complete satisfaction Irrespective what the world says Still your mind appreciates May be a routine for an outsider Still you hear your heart beats clearer Is your creativity; Is your vision Is surely a matter of your pride, satisfaction There are many views for being satisfied One school says 'Never Be Satisfied', With what you have achieved As it is a point of your being held back from progress Whereas others say, 'Be satisfied with what you have achieved As you need to be contended at some stage of life without stress' Forget what the world says about your decision It is going to bring you cheer and satisfaction ...
