Is abortion an option ??

A woman went to a Gynaecologist with a problem :

'Doctor, I have a serious problem and desperately need your help! My baby is not even 1 year old and I'm pregnant again. I don't want kids so close together.'

So the doctor said: 'Ok and what do you want me to do?'

She said: 'I want you to end my pregnancy, and I'm counting on your help with this.'

The doctor thought for a little, and after some silence he said to the lady: 'I think I have a better solution for your problem. It's less dangerous for you too.'

She smiled, thinking that the doctor was going to accept her request.

Then he continued: 'You see, in order for you not to have to take care of 2 babies at the same time, let's kill the one in your arms. This way, you could rest some before the other one is born. If we're going to kill one of them, it doesn't matter which one it is. There would be no risk for your body if you chose the one in your arms.'

The lady was horrified and said: 'No doctor! How terrible! It's a crime to kill a child!'

'I agree', the doctor replied. 'But you seemed to be OK with it, so I thought maybe that was the best solution.'

The doctor smiled, realizing that he had made his point.

Love

It felt just like it was eight years ago on April 3 2003 when I finally said “something” to “somebody” ... This time I saw her in the metro she climbed at my station , I tried to get a closer look but I couldn’t , I had my doubts she could be the same girl , no she wasn’t; my heart skipped a beat …

I made up a whole dialogue to say if she gets down at my station but she did not.. That’s it.. the moment was lost…

I had seen PS I love you yesterday and though I am way past my teens in some ways I am still a teenager..where I fall for stuff as fast … I would have approached a girl for the first time ( post April 2003) for sure, but well I din get a chance..
It’s just like the “breeze begins to flow” and your imagination begins to run in all directions… After writing this maybe I am considered as a very “filmy” person but I do believe in love at first sight.. I had it eight years ago.. I had it today but I lost her in the rush.. Hope I find her again and u know wat ; I am gonna approach her :):) sometime…

This is a totally different day and I am writing this but I don’t know why is it this a continuation of the previous writeup but it is .. Maybe because I continue with my love theory ahead in this blog.. well I fall in love with things very easily -the nature, my job , people around me but well not with all women though.. ; music -- sends chills down my spine , makes me nostalgic, inspires me , wants me to do more with each moment, live life more..

I watched this movie PS : I love you and I fell in love with this movie and Hillary Swank just like I did with Notting hill and Richard gere or with Remember the Titans and Denzel Washington… and n no of other movies, well I dunno if I am gullible easy to fool but I am always in love with one thing or the other…. And when I am not I feel empty..

I never write down a blog entry on one day this one is a mix of three totally different days. The last one being today..I love reading what I had written earlier and adding to it.. This week I fell in love with RED and Mary louise Parker and Bruce willis , Also with Revolver and Jason Statham and finally with Bob Marley and “Bum Bholey Natha”..,.

And here it is a set of Random entires added to a blog entry… This is a literary disaster I know but one milestone among many which when looked back would make me smile…

A Disappointment ??

daddy mujhse bola…tu galti hai meri…tujhpe zindgaani…guilty hai meri…
saabun ki shakal mein…beta tu to nikla keval jhaag..jhaag… jhaag… bhaag…
bhaag bhaag… bhaag bhaag…bhaag bhaag… bhaag bhaag…
Oh by God lag gayi…kya se kya hua…dekha to katora…jhaanka to kuan…
piddi jaisa chooha…dum pakda to nikla kaala naag…naag… naag…. bhaag…


Well very funny and nice song but if we relate to it , its just an instance being narrated of how we face a lot of rejections and disappointments in life.. If one does not have the capability of taking a loss with courage, then one cannot enjoy a win..
We are always taught to win but are never taught cope up with disappointments in life, in relationships… In the very fast world we focus on ourselves so much that we forget to empathise.. we may deliver long sermons on empathy but when its our turn we simply ignore it… We name relationships from the beginning and hence increase expectations and when they are not met , we face disappointment..

I think its very important to have proper methodology to make people tough emotionally more than physically,, Its been a rollicking ride the last two years, a lot of learning on the professional front but moreover so on the personal front , I have learned to keep emotions at bay now.. not the best of ideas I know but that’s what keeps me going as of now…

Happy mothers day

They say if we clone hitler and put him under different external environment from what he would have lived in as a kid he would not grow up to be a dictator, A person is a product of his experiences and who is more important in formulating these experiences than our parents , especially the mother. The role of a father is a support function to assist the mother in creating a stimulating environment for the growth of the kid( Taking nothing from the father away , but I think the mother has a far more important role to play in overall development of the kid.

When I was a kid I was always instigated to come first, fight it out, never give up , fight every adversity , never say no, be empathetic towards other human beings and animals. I did not realize how this became a part of my personality and I now appreciate the efforts my mom took to always correct me by going however far she can.

I remember the n no of conflicts when I had my own value system developing and there were differences between mine and hers, still there are and well I always had a middle path or my path :) but then a mothers' opinions are always very honest and she would have no bias and say it right from her heart, and as we know the heart pumps the blood to the brain to make it work well , it's much stronger and there is no better source of opinion..

I would have written books on this but I think we all know what I have to write, and their would be redundancy … I just want to wish all mothers a very happy mothers day on this day and keep up the good work..

When Team India Lost against SA - Harsha Bhogle

Remember when you failed an examination. How many people recall that, your class, friends, relatives? You failed to make it to the IITs or IIMs. Who remembers. How many times have you had the feeling of being the best in your class, school , university, state….., you failed to get a visa stamped this quarter…, you missed a promotion this year…, how did it feel when you dad told you in your early twenties that you are good for nothing…..and now your boss tell you the same...
You keep introspecting and go into a shell when people most of whom don’t matter a dime in your life criticize you, back bite you, make fun of you. You are left sad and shattered and you cry when your own kin scoffs at you. You say I am feeling low today. It takes a lot from us to come out of these everyday situations and move on. A lot??? really?
Now here’s a man standing on the third man boundary in the last over of a world cup match. The bowler just has to bowl sensibly to win this game. What the man at the boundary sees is 4 rank bad bowls bowled without any sense of focus, planning or regret. India loses, yet again in those circumstances when he has done just about everything right.
He does not cry. Does not show any emotion. Just keeps his head down and leaves the field. He has seen these failures for 22 years now. And not just his class, relatives, friends but the whole world has seen these failures. We are too immature to even imagine what goes on in that mind and heart of his. That’s why I would never want to be Sachin.
True, he has single handedly lifted to moods of this entire nation umpteen number of times. He has been an inspiration to rise above our mediocrity. Nobody who has ever lifted the willow even comes close to this man’s genius. His dedication and metal strength is unparallel. This is specially for those people who would have made fun of him again last night when India lost. They are people who are mediocre in their own lives. Who just scoff at others to create cheap fun. Who have lived in a small hole throughout their lives and thought they have seen the oceans.
Think about the man himself. He is 37 years of age. He has been playing almost non stop for 22 years. The way he was running and diving around the field last night would have put 22 year olds to shame. The way he played the best opening quickies in the world was breathtaking. He just keeps getting better which is by the way humanly impossible. Its not for nothing that people call him GOD.
But still I don’t want to be in those shoes. We struggle in keeping our monotonous lives straight, lives which affect a limited number of people. Imagine what would be the magnitude of the inner struggle for him, pain both mental and physical, tears that have frozen with time, knees and ankles and every other joint in the body that is either bandaged or needs to be attended to every night, eyes that don’t sleep before a big game, bats that have scored 99 international tons and still see expectations from a billion people.
And he just converts those expectations into reality. We watch in awe, feel privileged.
Well I think its time that his team realizes that enough is enough. They have an obligation, not towards their country alone but towards sachin. They need to win this one for him. Stay assured that he himself will still deliver and leave no stone unturned to make sure India wins this cup.
This is not just a game, and he is not just a sportsman. Its much more than this. Words fail here.....
