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...

Some Door

  Some door may open somewhere.. A very talented actor entered the film industry. His first movie became a hit.Expecting all doors in Bollywood would open for him.....but nepotism hit him hard.He tried a lot but his career graph instead of sky rocketing took a nosedive. Dejected,he joined security job becoming personal bodyguard of the superstars. He started his own Security Agency. Things slowly started picking up.He got a television soap offer.That became a big hit. Years of Television as the costliest Lead and later OTT platforms gave him great roles. An inspirational story for all those Talented people out there. When one door is shut on your face.......if you are genuinely talented and hard working..... Some door will always open for you somewhere. I heard one such actor speak " When things aren't working your way,never lose heart nor your focus.Because when suddenly opportunity knocks at your door one day,you must be well prepared to welcome it." So true. ...

My Life....My Choices.

  My Life..... My Choices. This blog is not critical nor condemning people and their unconventional choices....especially Women. I saw an old English movie,Kramer vs Kramer. Also a Bollywood movie, Akele Hum Akele Tum,based on the English movie. The Woman leaves her young kid with her husband ( who was always busy in his own professional life) to pursue her dreams and aspirations .Once she becomes financially strong,comes back to seek custody of her child. Society and the movie ,then and now,condemned the heroine, who was projected and judged " Selfish". When I was small, family had a person, who spent her prime years in pursuing a PhD degree in her field. In mid 40s,she met a divorcee on Matrimonial site,and they got married. A decade later,had a ugly divorce. In early 60s,she met someone while on vacation and remarried  . Those times,Society and Family condemned and judged the lady and also the 2 men for the life they opted and the choices they made. Whether yesterd...
