Why Make them orphan?

Even today after almost 24 years I still recall the day with a heavy heart when I had to leave the new born baby wrapped in a blue soft towel in the lawns of the hanging garden in Mumbai, without being able to help despite my willingness. We had gone for a stroll when I saw a small baby and asked my husband to accept and adopt that child, on that my husband retorted, "what would you tell others especially my parents?" I had to drop the thought though with much indignation. He was absolutely right. I always wanted to foster many girls and train them in all the skills so that they never have to feel inferior or take a negative decision in desperation. In any country I don't think any mom would leave her baby like an orphan anywhere else but imagine under how much agony a woman has to take such a drastic decision and how much guilt she will carry lifelong for her mistake? Had seen a movie where the mother of a grown up I.A.S. son feels bad on an occasion for her son...

Attitudes Need Change

What is the definition of a relationship? Any type of involvement in two persons can be called as relationship. Since ages we have been fond of love stories. In almost every state one love story is famous and many hit films have been made. Watching these films shows our liking for love stories.

The bygone days

I wish I could be reborn again to enjoy my growing stage with my ever loving zinda dil mamaji who never for a moment left his zest. We were so much fond of him that it seemed like a competition to be around him, with silly reasons just because we loved him so deep. I remember preparing paan for him which mamaji used to relish lot, I just applied lots of choona and kaththaa without realising its result on my dear mamaji's tongue, he also took and chewed it. I was on 9th cloud with happiness and later when I came to know how much he suffered of my overflowing love I felt miserable but he didn't utter a word about it to me. I still remember the resonant singing of Jagjit Singh gazals which he loved much and anytime it would be in the air when he was at home. the memorable notes..yeh daulat bhi le lo...Wo kaagaz ki kashti wo baarish ka paani... Being with him was simply a joy. Be it watching him wash his milk white dresses with lemon and besan for stains or taking bath over our ...
