Story of a small plant

 I bought a Jasmine plant from the nursery home. Nice Fragrance.  I wanted to take good care with great enthusiasm for gardening .I read books,watched videos and discussed with common friends.  Meticulous watering, some organic manure.  A few good flowers and the plant started withering. Worried, I got some more ingredients for it's healthy growth. But alas,the poor plant deteriorated.  Every body declared it hopeless .But I didn't lose hope. I just stopped adding supplements. Only water once a week.  A few days later,small green shoots appeared and soon the plant regrew stronger. This incident is so similar to our lives . Any new environment or a new phase brings difficulties for us to cope. Over thinking and over enthusiasm is not good for healthy growth . Life comes with its own ups and downs.  Never lose hope. Always be positive.  In difficult times,just stay calm and steady.Hang on. Times will change. Newer opportunities will come.Sun ...

History at 21

 Shafali Verma. A fighter. A role Model. A player starting a promising Cricket career at a young age of 15yrs. Fought hard against all odds...had to prove her gender too. She got her Cricket to shut mouths and give back to all fingers pointing at her....questioning her credibility.  She was dropped off the World Squad inspite of good performance in other formats but lacking form in ODI. Her parents supported her in her lowest phase of disappointment.  Her parents encouraged her to play Domestic Cricket. Polish her skills.Work on her form and fitness. A wild card entry into Indian Women Cricket World Cup Squad replacing an Injured player. And the 21yr skilled Cricket player created History yesterday.  She excelled with her batting,bowling,wicket keeping..... Bravo Girl. Take a bow. You taught everyone young kid out there..... Never take a failure,rejection or drawback as a Punishment.  Take that time to work harder.Polish skills. Analyse short comings. Be prepare...

Pillars of Life

  Sincerity and Dedication. When I was in school,my teachers would teach me to improvise till perfection. Whenever I would deliver perfection, my teachers would get emotional. When I reached college, my teachers would only advise " Just being intelligent is not enough.Your work should justify the sincerity and dedication towards the subject." When I was pursuing Post graduation in Anaesthesia which was going to be my profession lifelong,my Professors said" Knowledge  of the Subject and Passion of the Field is not enough.Sincere,Dedicated  Hard work will help you be successful." Wise Words of Wisdom . Initially taught by Parents at home and then Gurus in school. My both parents have been highly educated and very hard working. Dedication and Sincerity towards their Professional careers. When I started my Anaesthesia private practice and entered the rat race where Commercial viability reigned supreme mor than Knowledge, Skills,Passion,..... Reality of Practices ...

Election woes

 A Biscuit and the Giver. Every morning as I go on my regular walk,at some corners ,there are benevolent givers feeding bits of Glucose Biscuits to hungry stray dogs.  Daily the givers and the beneficiaries remain the same.This has been going on for years. There are many stray dogs roaming around in the area searching for food. Only the stronger ones come to grab the biscuit pieces.  The weaker ones are pushed aside. Neither do the givers bother to give good shelters for these stray dogs nor is the Government caring for their survival.  A Facade of Benevolence.  In Life, with Humans, too ,the outlook towards the poor and needy by the Government establishments and Society is so similar.  Instead of providing means of livelihood and basic needs which will improve the survival of the growing poverty in our country,the mentality is mere Facade of concern and Benevolence.  Elections bare this truth about sycophancy of leaders and society.  Free cash,fr...

Sanctity of Sacred Union.

  Polygamy and Infidelity. Recently a podcast on OTT platform had some celebrities share opinions on relationships with respect to cheating. The older generations apparently was okay with physical cheating over emotional cheating. Polygamy and Infidelity in a relationship is not new. History has shown battles being fought over this. Mythology has stories on Polygamy and Infidelity. Indian constitution ( barring a certain community) officially finds Polygamy against Law. Till recently, Infidelity too was criminal offense. But not so today in court of law. The difference between Human race and Animals is respect and trust in relationships. Except for few races of Animals, commitment in a relationship is missing. Human race stresses on Commitment and Loyalty. Most countries don't legally allow Polygamy. But African continent and some religions support Polygamy. Infidelity in relationships- Physical and Emotional both though is not anymore a criminal offense, it's becom...

Changing With Changing Times

  Changing With The Changing Times. I am an Anaesthesiologist by profession. I have been doing freelance private Anaesthesia practice for almost more than 2 and a half decades. In initial days of practice, ignorance about my field and about the procedure undergoing was seen in many educated patients too. The illiteracy levels were high. No social digital media. No marketing too by Hospitals and medical field. Times started changing. Digital social media took the whole Society hooked up to their phones. Lots and lots of important information about everything became available. This boosted Awareness of many things amongst public. Awareness of medical diseases,screening and treatment facilities available. Hence,today,I am finding public approaching Hospitals themselves for routine screening and investigations. Many are availing the various treatments for many issues.unlike yesteryears patients had to be coaxed to get themselves realise about the seriousness of the underlyin...
