I’m missing it…!

Gimme love and care; Mom, I’m missing it;
Gimme scold and strength; Dad, I’m missing it;
Gimme silly fight and forgiveness; Sis, I’m missing it;
Gimme laugh and shoulder; Friends, I’m missing it;
Gimme hugs and kisses; Darling, I’m missing it;
Gimme culture and heritage; Ma-land, I’m missing it;
Missing all the best I had.

Cultural difference (America vs India)

     As soon as I landed in this country, the first thing I noticed is the dignity in the rhapsody of people here. Never been noticed such dignity anywhere in my country as far customer service is concerned. The above statement doesn't mean that I bugging India or Indians. But when I am concerned about the generosity I grade up my homeland to be higher. This doesn't mean I am neither proud to be an Indian as every country has its own pros and cons. So, besides pride or any other positive and negative feeling for a country I'm writing this in points of aspects.

   As I believe love being the important factor that makes us termed as human being. I would say that bonding here is temporary rather being permanent. It might be confusing for many that what I term it as temporary. My terms here are a view over the mass and its my duty to mention here that there are exceptions everywhere. Everywhere I go I see most of the people's bondage in a relationship between the two here is like "chewing a sweet gum" whereas in India it was like "Daily-rice and dhal". I observed this while working in a shop here.

  As money being the next important thing where everybody aspires to acquire more, I see people here are less concerned about savings. The policy of taking insurance which waives any medical fees, a minimal work effort everyday brings the money that is needed for survival, a pretty good education costs less, 5-days work and 2-days enjoyment policy, easy transportation and many more things I can stack up to acquaint why people here saves less. I could say this way of life brings pleasure as they are less concerned about tomorrow. Whereas Indian family policy about money is exactly opposite to this as we are more concerned about tomorrow. I could say this way of living brings pleasure at times of regression. But in every geographical location there are money exceptions in both cases.

   As far as entertainment is concerned, the people here spends every last penny for entertainment. No matter how much it costs if it fits their entertainment interest. As Indians are more concerned about the savings, the entertainment arena gets a quite more money from masses but not from an individual. Cinema being the main entertainment for Indians and this is not the case here.

  Education - I believe, the best utilization of available resources by an individual gives real means of education. I cannot say education in India is poor, at the same time, as a child cannot gets educated by its own and thats where we depend upon schools, notebook education lacks practical applicability. But this is not the case here, every school teaches in a pragmatic manner and I find here is where India is losing the real potentials sometimes by grading talents only by the process of "mugging up and vomiting - exams".

   I believe that culture also depends upon the political setup. So, here I go some lines with politics. Every country has its own political flaws and it doesn't matter whether it is democratic or military-based or dictatorship or whatever but the range in flaw makes the difference. I believe the political system goes well only when it goes hand by hand with judiciary department. I'm not acquainted here to explain the setup of the government but the difference of two great democratic nations. So, I here go with an analogy between politics and judiciary; "America - Hand on hand with little gap between fingers, India - judiciary in political pocket".

   I think I made most of the terms here clearly and if anyone who couldn't understand any of the analogy here can ask in comments. And these are the major differences I found out and I might add postings regarding this when I get more stuffs on it in the future.

My friends

My two thought sharing friends.
They will often fight among themselves.
One is a lean guy and another guy with broad and flat front.
No matter how they look, I adore, purpose and execute them.
I'm not an euphemist; they really worth this fiction.
Let me introduce them.
World call them pen and paper.

I'm tired of stopping superstitious acts

   I am really tired of superstitious acts that has been implemented on me these days. Nonetheless, my mom being a great believer of god usually impose some superstitious acts on me often. I sometimes accept those to keep my mom happy. Most of the times I would be reluctant at it as I do not wish to encourage such kind of irrational acts.

   I here give you my fellow buddies one of such act I recently came through. As usual my mom went to temple and fortunately she met a priest in that temple. She asked him as what kind of poojas she has to do to make my life flourish (My mom asked him as one astrologer told her that I will be with Raagu or Kethu for coming 10 months; I don't believe in those stuffs). She had been told some of the things to do to bring me to a refuge.

   The things that has been told to do was the most funniest I ever heard of and I hope you people will also laugh after reading it. Mixing up fried groundnuts with salt and making a goat to eat it alongside with some mantras sung; this has been the thing he asked my mom to do to make my life flourish. I really laughed at thinking of doing such irrational act. But my mom really wanted me to do it. I refused for the first time. She again insisted me to do it. I almost aroused with anger to shout at her. And finally I left it undone as I wish not to encourage such impractical superstitious acts; no matter how angry she was on me.

   I was happy that at every instant my mom proves that she will be always besides me in uplifting me to a greater side by trying her level best. At the same time, I wish her not to follow the preaching of anyone blindly and I always try to stop such acts but I end up as a loser. If I behave in such a way to keep my mom happy it might be not be the right way of non-violent revolution that I am doing these days and it loses its value.

   I always think of how to stop these kind of irrational preaching and to protect people from such priests as I wish that these things shouldn't be uprooted at any cost. But I finally ended up with conclusion not to stop the preachers rather this revolution needs people to think rationally. I will not stop at this. I need some other ideas from you to make this happen. Share your thoughts about this post and possibly ideas to make people think rationally. It would be great if I can change mind of at least one person by your ideas.

   Expecting comments from whoever read this post. Thanks in advance.

என் வினோதமான ஆசை

சிறு வயதிலிருந்தே...

  உன் பிஞ்சு நெற்றியில் முத்தமிட்டு ஆரத்ழுவிக்கொண்டே
       உன்னைக் கொஞ்சி பாசம்காட்ட - உன் தந்தையாக...

  உன்னிடம் எப்பொழுதும் சிணுங்கிக்கொண்டே
      சண்டையிட்டு நேசம் காட்ட - உன் அண்ணனாக...

  உனது சின்னச்சின்ன தவறுகளையும் ஏற்றுக்கொண்டு
      உன்னை உயிரினும் மேலாக பாவித்துக்கொள்ள - உன் அன்னையாக...

  உன்னுடன் சந்தொசங்களையும் துயரங்களையும் அனுபவித்துக்கொண்டு
      எந்நேரமும் உடனிறிந்து பார்த்துக்கொள்ள - உன் தோழியாக...

இவர் அனைவருமாக இருந்திருக்க ஆசைப்படுகிறேன் - ஆனால்
இதில் எதையும் நான் இழக்வில்லை இழக்கப்போவதுமில்லை

ஏனெனில்

எனது வாழ்வாகியிருக்கும் உனக்கு நான் யாதுமாகி இருப்பேன்...

I love this moment

I redress the past mistakes;
Yet I feel like enthusiastic child even after the long hurdles I passed through.
My mind says "Ahem, This is not permanent.!!" But my heart says" Its neither temporary.!!"
Not hassle-free but I don't care what they do as I'm happy now.
Yes. I live and love this very moment.
