Its been ages.....have lost track of my blog id as well....but thanks to google..here I am...I'm tired...some strange will is keeping me going. Div is gone....but where..? Actually no...she lives with me..all the time here. Shucks....I'm amazed at this fiece motherhood...what is that that holds us together so strongly? And why? Then what about those who tuck their babies in public dustbins? What happens to their senses? Are circumstances so powerful or are minds so powerless? Ok..let me not get into this....I hate it when I get emotional....for what? Shucks!

BTW...have you guys noticed that at signal lights the number of eunuchs have increased...my..they are all over the place. Earlier they left us women out of their crazy pranks..but these days they don't spare us either...they ask you for money with their hands on our heads ..lol...and if we don't gove them anything they curse...and if you understood their language...God help you.

I'm just wondering..what can we do to help them? I'm sure they can be employed somewhere? Or do they prefer just what they are doing? I have heard of some of their clan doing well for themselves. I hear that they are actually an organised lot. Here is an interesting read. http://www.humanrightsdefence.org/eunuchs-of-india-deprived-of-human-rights.html

Paroles: Notes to my daughter - 4

That was a long long break......phew...yeah....it almost broke my bones. BTW guys, the marriage went off quite well.....no major hiccups to complain except that now my kitty has dried up....I'm broke.....but all the same, it was fun....
So here I go with life's lessons.....she may not even bother no? She thinks being married is ...ahh...you have transformed...into what is my question! Anyway baby...here is what I intend saying....be a go-giver.....give and feel that wonderful feeling.....no, no....not great gifts or expensive perfumes.....give the needy....the arms that stretch out to you, the eyes that seek help, the slurred words that are actually wanting to ask but not able to...those job recommendations that you can, that dress that you think will look nice on her....the extra bag of rice that he may need, that ripe mango that she is eyeing with such want, a warm warm hug to the love starved.....oh..the list is endless.....GO, BE A GO-GIVER! And see the difference....tell me if you felt that way when you can.

'Paroles': Notes To My Daughter - 3

You've heard this before and you will hear it again...but as moms' are nags..here's me saying this again...'Never say never'!
If your boss fires you, smile, look him in the eye and tell him..working with him was real good and leave courteously. Never mind the volcano in you waiting to erupt..who cares about the invisible! If your friend contradicts you....let him....no one ever wins an argument. Don't walk out of any place in a huff....no point. Don't slam the door on anyone...you may, at some point of time...have to knock on her/his door. Don't say you hate a dish....you may just develop a taste for it sooner than you thought. Hold back when you are forced to say..'Never'......it's not that hard.

'Paroles': Notes to my daughter - 2

Hey....listen...."Respect even the most insignificant thing you have..if you don't, they will sooner or later move away"!
Right from your pair of footwear and night clothes....thank God for them and respect them. Don't slight things away...if you do, they will go away before you even realise. The more you respect and thank God for giving them to you, the more abundance you will attract. Take good care of everything you are blessed with.
So go ahead...do the thanking and attracting.....and be genuine about it!
From mama's cup....cheers!

'Paroles': Notes To My Daughter...1

Time and again I try tutoring my daughter. BTW, she claims she knows a whole lot like many of her breed....they are a breed apart no? Hmm....well...as something engraved on paper is more effective than 'unheard words', I though it would make sense to start a series of 'Paroles' that I hope she will read at some point in her life..through her junkets! My dialogues are drawn out...not my engraves....and you are welcome to disagree!
"Anything that needs to be done under wraps is not the right thing to do!"
Think about it...hey man.. ofcourse you need to crap behind closed doors!
And well....I don't agree that parents are all eyes and can detect what their kids do. Yes.. experience does reveal things to us that kids try concealing..but believe me...the breed is a manipulative lot hun....so spontaneous they are! Just let them direct this energy positively and the world will be full of Einsteins and Shakespears. So yeh..dwell on this and check on those things that you are shy of doing before people.....you will know it is something spooky. Come on....this is not Rocket Science...you know it.
More 'Paroles' soon....cheers for reading this one...

Guinea Pigs Go A Hunting....

The guinea pigs have all left...or rather were asked to leave. The office is quiet...food coming in at the pantry has reduced...a section of the office is in darkness and the ac is switched off. The remaining g. pigs who are able to endure some more are asked to occupy just a portion of the huge office. At one corner, one of the pigs is trying to gauge the worth of the equipment...I overhear that it runs into a few lakhs. I mentally calculate and tell myself that it would not cater to many in terms of payments. BTW...we are told we'd get paid soon...I'm not sure who is happy. Yes, we now understand what the term 'recession' means....simply put..it is making paupers of us...no money in the bank or pockets. We settle for roadside 'chai' and a teeny weeny packet of 'hot stuff,' which is now a treat. Earlier, 'Coffee Day' was the 'hadda.' We've fallen.....like friends of Lucifer....but actually WHO IS LUCIFER? Everyone has the answer....right you are! We pay for another's mistake...the one committing it still has his bank 'half full'...almost as if he saw it coming...so why didn't we see it ...'coz Lucifer's are smarter than us...they know others can be taken for a ride.....and guinea pigs are always there for the taking! Welcome to an old world! Let's look at something new...see you soon....hey...have you heard that something called the 'swine flu' is spreading through many countries? Hmm....who cares..it would do the debt ridden world loads of good....!

We, the guinea pigs...

Now who is doing us a favor? They tell us we'd be paid our salaries for four months and then we'd be asked to pack off.....are we ***** whatever.....and we are still waiting for a final word....On one hand they say they are short of funds...and salaries for 4 months for all the staff here...is that a joke? Are we their guinea pigs? Use us, experiment their bombastic plans...and throw us away like used torn tissues? My brain is clogged....clogged with pain and stress at the colossal neglect of us ...human force...

The lifting experience!

If you happen to use a 'lift' that overlooks the street it's fine.
Most lifts or elevators within mirrored enclosures can be quite a 'lifting' experience. I believe these mirrors within elevators were a result of many heads that worked together. A brilliant idea you say? Well...! it serves as a distraction to divert ones attention to something she /he loves the most...herself/himself! And yes, the time consumed in the mirrored space is forgotten until the door magically open. Oops, were you caught in an act meant only for your mirror?
And have you experienced the 'not so comfortable' silence too? Sometimes you want move away to avoid the uncomfortable closeness and then want to tell the guys rushing in to hold on and take the next one. Ya....and you don't quite want to show your self indulgence and pretent to be in deep thought...actually surveying the unkempt toe nails of the one next to you. Ha! And have you observed....it is usually the men who instantly begin to settle their hair as they watch themselves with great admiration? Ha ha! The next time you are in the elevator, smile into the mirror....and look at the various expressions of the others as they watch you.....quite a 'lifting' experience. You may as well appreciate the various forms that God creates tirelessly! Have a great elevation!

Leaving me in dire straits!

Phew! Did I even think of it? Never! Till it thumped so hard on my head that it hurt like hell and I thought I'm transforming into a unicorn! My 21 year old daughter decides to get married! Phew again....!!

A single mom....I was just basking in my glory of having raised my daughter; quite successfully I thought. During times of 'no jobs nowhere', she gets placed in an MNC! Phew....what luck I say, rolling my eyeballs as high as they would reach! Everyday day, back from work we'd talk about people and what we did at work and I was so pleased with myself.....my whole system packed with 'smiley'atoms!

Three months and she declares that she is going to wed! Phew! I smile thinking she's just joking...she still is my innocent baby...but no...she says she is going to marry...and the guy is abroad! Aw! Ya? I look at her and think of my bank statements, my credit card bills, my personal loans, my 14% cut in salary and then I think ...oh well....it just takes a signature in a thick ugly dog earred book to get married...why the heck should I think of my kitty? I hear a distant voice..'and mom, I want a traditional marriage'! Phew! I choke! 'Just keep it simple' my baby's voice adds, tutoring me on 'what's simple'.

I'm still trying to keep things simple..the marriage is going to be next month.....only simple souls invited....and those who are..no boxed gifts please...only envelopes! Do come!
