Commando with a Tattoo...

Blog marathon Blog number 11...

Anu’s Chatter....

Today I read an inspirational story of a man who was lost in one of the Mumbai slums in Thane and he went back home after 20 years to his biological mother....at the time he was lost he was around  6...I have just finished reading a real life story of Ganesh Dhangde a Mumbai slum dweller who lived to become a commando in the Mumbai Police...all the years he was lost from his mother( his father a construction worker  had died when he was a child) he was taken care of by kind strangers and Mumbai orphanages gave him the education and courage and brought  the best in him and he became an athlete of the state level to be re-united with his family 20 years hence  because of a tattoo of his mother’s name ---Manda Dhangde ingrained on his left  underarm, a tradition in the most Mahar-ashtrian villages...That made me think a lot about my country's culture guys. It is in fact a tradition to inscribe a tattoo I understand .....with the family name on small children..its awesome I feel ...its like an identity card ..Dear friends there have been instances of children lost and found because of  a birth mark ...so  a tattoo after birth on a babies body is  really a wise tradition....Well three cheers to Mumbai and its awesome spirit!

Undying Love....of friendship

Anu’s Chatter....

I was not feeling too well yesterday  so I did not go out but just rested in my bed calling  or wishing my friends electronically a 'Happy Friendship Day'..

Two of my  friends from my locality made an exception-----they came over and tied beautiful bands on my hand......that really really moved me..Proclaiming their undying loyalty to the fact that no matter what..they were going to stand by me..

Now that ----I call true friendship...

I am lucky to be blessed by a few such friends who would not think twice before helping me out or stand  by me...

Happy friendship Day.....my friends--- you matter the  world to me!

Friends are like Hot Chocolate and cold ice-cream

Anu’s chatter....

“Best friends are inseparable, much like some of the classic food combinations that will never go out of style. You know that being with your best friend is like a combination of a hot brownie with ice cream? One is frozen cold but melts because of the heat from the chocolate !They are  inseparable and the taste is unique as it is because of the diametrically opposite combinations of intensity....   Yesterday I enjoyed friendships day to the hilt and I came upon this deadly conclusion friends . What a realization!  ...One aunty from my building wanted to know the significance of such days and if it was not a waste of money and time as otherwise people did not care for one another? All said and  done guys...I feel that----

there is no reason why one should not celebrate such days  specially when the feelings of being loved is the one that  lingers for sometime to come specially when we neither have time to look at people and our lives are so mechanical?? It is  a reason to wish and meet those who matter really! So Happy Friendship's Day friends!?

Happy friendship day..

Happy friendship day.....

Anu’s Chatter..

True friendship is a bond that is worth cherishing, a feeling that is to be preserved lifelong, an experience that is to be lived in its entirety every second. 

It is akin to some of the simplest things in life, like a breathtaking view at the boundless expanse of nature, or like simple, elating good food that you come back to, every day.

It's friendship's day folks and we know that this time as well you have set aside all your prior commitments to spend that special time with your GFFs Or BFF's. On my part I made my friends coerce into believing the idea of  my inseparable friendship! 

THAT special SOMEONE!!!! blog-5

Anu's Chatter...

Yesterday I was  talking to my friend  about having that special someone in one’s life  and how very important it was to have that one man called your own who is soooo very there through kith and kin ........dreams along and stands by us when we most want ....a guy ---100% understanding and caring.....”In short” she said   

 “I have everything in Amit...he is my lover , he is my friend,he is the father of my children , my pillar of undivided support,  last but not the least my husband.....I cannot live and imagine my life without him! She finished emotionally.....

“Of course” I say...and went on to endorse her thoughts about how I can relate to what she was saying.....and how ditto my situation was...

Much after our convo ----- I went into a thinking mode( that I always do after some kind of daily brain-storming) ...I took into account the number of divorces happening today in  our society compared to  yesteryears.... ..I came upon these on  a marriage working or failing.....you guys are free to agree or disagree---

1.We have to be similar if we have to stick together --is---- if you are not like me then we cannot live together.....

2.Should be able to change ---is ---if you do not change the way I want of you I don't want you/I will not accept you!

3.Long distance arrangements will not work---if we are traveling for work frequently ---I cannot be loyal to you!

4. I want a all time consuming physical relationship----You should be able to attract me always..or I cannot live with you/ you should have a hourglass figure even after childbirth!

5.Our hobbies should be similar----is---if you read books and write blogs I won’t like it since I am a outdoor person or if you are  watching t.v lying on the bed , you are not intellectual/ you are lazy... 

There could be so many other silly or otherwise  reasons because of which the couples might be separating....you can add on your own for a feedback....

Thank you guys for responding to my blogs this is the 5th on the blogathon...

 Did people think... the way I do?

The kind of questions that  bog me nowadays....are how will I cope with aging, when it finally happens? what will happen to me when the day of my death  arrives? Was there life after death? Will I go to some place called as a heaven? Will I ever be able to see my loved ones? All these thoughts really really trouble me sometimes as they are right now...the worst of the lot is---- How much time do I have....? If I do not get enlightenment as Budha did , was my life a waste? Will God punish me for my sins.... since I have not completed the enlightenment process and push me to a menial birth as it is believed in the scriptures?

Was I aging because I was thinking so much, or aging was making me think so much? Or all this was because of the pollution and Global warming? Funny but research shows that the nature that is changing has some adverse effect on peoples thought processes! Why I  never thought about such things in my teens or twenties??????????Do you have the answers guys do you think the way I do? Write back...

Precious time !

Hi guys ..........this is the third in my blog marathon....because I could not post one yesterday I am posting two today!

Anu’s Chatter-----

The time is ticking away all the time......Time is ticking.... that is what exactly I feel each passing day each passing moment ---------this has been like this with me for quite some time now and that also reminds me that ---time is the most precious thing on this earth! That decided---My top priority on the list is to spend as much of time as possible with the most precious people around me  that includes my  mom ........ I haven't been able to spend as much time as I should have  after marriage .......so I decide to do THAT! Especially now that she will turn 72 this sep....it is the number ONE on my list ! So that reminds me --that time is precious because I cannot bring it back too!

The other precious littles on my list are -----

Visiting an old friend, reading  a good book, taking a ‘alone walk’ on the Juhu beach,spending time with my husband with my fast growing kid.......
