The String

  The String Connecting The Beads. I had a dance program. My mother stayed up all night ,wove beautiful white beads together with a string and made a necklace matching with my costume. The string tied with a knot behind my neck. The necklace enhanced my entire get-up .Beautiful shining white beads adorned my neck. After the dance,my friends flocked around me and eagerly touched the necklace to feel the beads. One of them tugged the string...... The knot wasn't strong.The string broke. All the beautiful beads fell scattered all over the floor. As long the beads were held on together by the string....the necklace adorned my neck. The string broke..... The beads simply fell apart. Relationships between siblings and extended family members is similar to the beads and the string. The parents and elders in the family are like the String which holds everyone together. Once,they are no more....the siblings and cousins grow apart and the entire family just like beads simply segr...

  Satiety and Hunger. Dr Tripti Milind Galgali Hubli. Stretch your legs according to length of your blanket. Post Independence, majority of us have been through tough childhood and compromised growing up years. Once,we start earning, major part of income is segregated on the 1st day of month towards savings- Fixed deposits, Equity and shares,Real estate,Insurance.... Means of Savings to secure our future and help us in Emmergencies. But do we " Spend" . Indians don't spend much. Savings is imbibed into us since childhood. Hunger and Satiety. We are taught to eat only when hungry.For good health,we are taught to restrict our Satiety and control our Hunger. So,in life,too Indians are educated to control their Spending.

Satiety is missing in the dictionary of their life agenda. They stretch their legs longer...

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 ...

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...
