I am reminded,of my grand parents today, October 31st,2011..dedicate this Halloween day,towards their memories ..lOving/unConditional caring/underStanding.. the true legends.. par excellence by any standards.. be it Physical challenges/Mental challenges.. they have proved/shone like a POLE star beyond comprehension/words ..to the current generation,broken/shattered/divided or separated easily.. with some simple words/physical trauma..I could sense their
pain/helplessness when seeking assistance, be it financial /for medical/
humanitarian assistance...and their thirst to live another day, was
clearly visible in their eyes, even on their death bed...inspite of all odds of survival..financial/psychological/physical...I am no match to that generation
of legends....in terms of will/simplicity/determination...to live/tackle head on, any given situation, with a family, of more than fingers in the hands to count..to a recent comment made by my father...it is very difficult, under current circumstances! I was spell bound!! for a moment.. for what?? In an era of modern medical advancements /economics/ease in living??..where fast food ordering for breakfast/lunch/dinner.. is turning out to be the norms of the day..I am reminded, of the taste of black coffee, served with love, still lingering within my taste buds..and reminds me, of the anguish in the eyes, of my
grandmother..looking for a tint of milk/scrape pinch of sugar, to add
to the drink, exhausted out by dawn of the day,during one of my surprise, unexpected knock on their door..the taste of simple food, furiously competed amongst us their dearest grand children's, visiting for a vacation still lingers on..unmatched to the plenty/relative abundance of today..Where do I stand today...in my relatively plenty..of house Sq.Ft/food/ health/wealth/entertainment options....hats off.....only to my
legends again..unmatched soles..applauded/adored/illuminated, beyond any
comprehension/words..rest left to childhood memories, of the lucky fortunate.
Do we have a granny/grandpa day.. why not celebrate at
least..Halloween day, in their memory..and stimulate the depressed
fallen economy/minds..who could endure pain for days.. to my generation in
all respect..
Blackout in relationship .. Hats off to my legends again..the real fact of life, is to
understand/know/cherish a person, takes a lifetime in reality..in our modern fast life, like our fast food/instant coffee..expectations to relationship,
are now bench marked at the same level..ruled by magazine stories/gossips..relationship made/broken, to market oneself/used as a publicity stunt to gain attention.. resulting in disasters in relationship.. values in/within families, now being gauged on wealth/power/influence in society..forgetting the real treasures within grasp.. children/husband/wife/grandparents/relatives/friends/colleagues at work..as one of the sayings goes..the smell of once orchard garden flowers, are taken for granted..
I have set a benchmark to self.. to know a person, at least 10% needs 10 years.. be it parents/husband/wife/children/ friends..do I have the patience/desire/will..??the fact being, even a lifetime is insufficient for the later analysis..The only golden rule of thumb, for better/reliable/strong..IPR/ family relationship.. is..JUST remEmber.. when one points, 1 finger at the other,remember..there are 3 fingers pointing to self and 1 pointed up..analyse the later/former, before making the final verdict/judgement..things will fall into track,as a train needs both tracks to pull/carry, its bogie's ahead successfully..it is the same, for a family/relationship, to bloom to its full potential, then common sense/truth/faith will prevail. As in majority of family relationships, there is never a complete family package,it is to be contended/satisfied.. within the given/acquired/obtained.. relationship/package.
How much is enough..?? is the next question..??a million $$ oh!!!
Now it is the generation of billion $$ ?? No stink without sweat/no cooking odour in house, if kitchen not used..which determines, the basic foundational charactor of an individual/family..which is hyped by perfume/modern marketing gimmicks and many blindly, fall pray to these, in the name of civilisation/modernity..forgetting old is gold too..What to do then?? A blend of pAst+presenT=recIpe for future..so work hard/cook , use deodorants/perfumes, to relate to past and the present,than being just ignorant and unwilling for a change..the fact being..'CHANGE IS A UNIVERSAL CONSTANT'.
