My Views and Ideas: Life and Parenting

Countless number of packed boxes ready to move ! I never knew moving can be so tedious. Last couple of weeks I have been busy in planning, packing, making to-do-list and crossing each item after finishing them. This to-do-list seemed an endless job. How busy I was, that you might have noticed by my sporadic posts these days. Now the good news is that I have finally moved and now there is another endless to-do-list of unpacking. Choosing appropriate place for each item needs lots of planning and brooding. Every item has to be in the right place to look pretty and show your sense of taste .Not being an internal decorator, the process of setting each item at proper place took me several attempts and finally I found a sweet place for each item. However, this will keep going for a couple of few more weeks, of course at an easy pace. However, the most surprising thing is that in this moving process, I discovered few brand new muscles in my body :)), which I thought never, existed. Such a...

July 19 th was my birthday. My husband and I have our birthdays in the same month and that gives me a little bit of convenience because until my birthday the decoration will be still there which I did for my husband. In addition, the whole month I feel very festive. Perhaps very different from the usual husbands mine is a little special. His ways of celebration are different and his way of wishing is different .He has no knowledge of how to show his emotions directly. However, his discrete way of showing emotions and love has made him so lovable to me .Some what both of us being of same nature type makes us a perfect couple. Nevertheless, I being a woman still have some of the womanly showoffs and etiquettes and that goes very well with our socialization and in maintaining our friend circle. No matter how sober my husband is but every year he will buy me the prettiest boo key of flower and a lovely card. I have no idea how much time he spends but every time the card he gives me, c...

Many people had difficulty in accepting my views about problem with girls to drink in my previous post( Drinking culture ). I have not one but several reasons for that and for me each one is equally important. I am not against drinking culture but in my mind there should be a well-defined boundary when to stop, and your body tolerance .I am not against European or American drinking culture, however I think drinking should be under certain limit. Perhaps in following that belief I do not understand why anyone will want the pubs to remain open after midnight. For me this attitude is not conducive to our personal developmental environment, work environment and eventually not at all for certain health issues. However, above every thing I am totally against girls drinking so often and as a way of socializing .I am not a misogynist, I believe in gender equality but just by indulging in certain activities do not make one gender better or equal to the other gender. Apparently ,I do not b...

I was listening to the BBC documentary on Exploring issues, which is affecting people around the globe. The issue was about alcohol abuse in Kenya , America and India . What triggered my thoughts when I listened to the young people, standing in the pubs drinking and talking to the correspondent in Bangalore ? There main viewpoint was, when there is accessibility, afford ability and availability why should not they indulge in drinking when the other developed countries like America and Europe are so famous for drinking culture. I was shocked to listen to the interviews of some of the folks out there in Bangalore . Obviously most of them were youngsters, and above 18 years old. Most of them were men but women of the same age group were not behind either. When these people were asked if they would like their parents to know about all these activities, all of them said that this is a tough question to answer. Therefore, inside they know that what they are doing is ethically wrong. ...

July 2 nd was my sweetie’s Birthday. The most waited day of my whole year. He is more like a kid than a grown up man. So I also celebrate it with all my enthusiasm and make him feel as if he is a tiny little kid. I decorated the house with balloons and colored paper. I also made his favorite sweet Gulabjamun and samosa as a savory item. In the beginning I thought I would just make rasgulla because that is the easiest thing to make. He loves rasagulla. The time he got up he warned me to be extra nice to him as today is his B’day. Here is our conversation on that day:- "Listen Sweetheart today on your Birthday we will cut Gulab jamun instead of cake" “Honey will you let me eat what I want today” I said “sure sweet heart, what ever you want” “Will you also let me eat as many samosas I want?” “Yes of course” “Will you give me 12 gulab jamun and 4 samosas” “Yes I will” “sweetie this way you will become very fat very soon” "Who cares it is...
