A STONE UPTURNED

THERE ARE ALWAYS TWO CHOICES IN LIFE ,EITHER FACE THE CONDITIONS AS IT IS OR TO TAKE THE RESPONSBILITIES  TO CHANGE THEM

S

so here i am going to discuss with u a stone upturned,an incomplete dream, a journey yet to be completed

It happened one fine day when i was in my dad's clinic attending his patients as he was out of town and a woman"Saraswati" came with a 1 year old baby burning with fever

i took the temp n it showed 103 i scolded that lady 4 not bringing her child earlier n she

started crying ,saying she didn't had money for fees n pills{to which i really didn't pay much heed b'coz its a common site in dad's clinic} 

then she told me her story she was married to a man 3 yrs back with a dowry of 10000 rs n the man ran away with the money leaving her pregnant,she came back to her home did some servant's job in nearby houses n his family didn't care 'bout her daughter whether she was ill or not 'coz she was a "girl"

she went away ,i didn't charge her but that wud not solve her problem ,i gave it a thought a whole night that what can be done with these illiterate,cheated,downtrodden women

n the other day i got a call from one of my aunty that she needed an aaya cum housemaid who can take care of the twin babies that her daughter in law has recently delivered n if i knew someone

there i was god had showed me the way i recommended saraswati's name n she was kept with a good pay'a place to live

after a few days she came with her sister to"didiji who is like god to them" this girl was 10th pass{i thanked god} n wanted to be self dependent like her sister i recommended her to one of my frnd for receptionist's job{n i sincerely thank Dr Sudhir for employing her} 

so guys from there came the idea of"NAARI-AN ORGANISATION FOR MAKING WOMEN SELF DEPENDENT"

i decided to make these women self depndent

but as i said earlier "NAARI" was not an easy task'an organisation that too involving women,many legal formalities n when i became totaly irritated one of my really close frnd adviced me to delay the idea n said"ek aurat ki madad ke liye pehle khud aurat banna padta hai"

n he was correct i was very young and all alone to carry it forward so i dropped this idea for a time being

n one sun morning when i was having cofee a group of women came to my house {guided by ever so dear S araswati of course} n everybody with a common story-cheated,exploited,dowry victims,leftovers

recommended 9 of these women to residential based maid jobs[by my mumma's help of course,thank you mumma n i love you}

so they are earning ,are self dependent n all 11 of them are working hard to live a life of respect

i may not have been successful in giving them an organization but when one fine day "Saraswati"came to my home with a box of sweets 'coz she has admitted her daughter to a nearby school.she fell on my feet n said"Aapne mujhe aur meri beti ko izzat ki roti di hai didiji bhagwan aapko khub barkat de"

i realized i had done nothing i just showed them a way -way to self respect n thereafter all 11 of them carried this tough journey themselves

n hey "naari"wud be there one day working in the field of women empowerment thats a promise i make it to myself n too everybody reading this

i would like to quote Robert frost here

"TWO ROADS DIVERGED IN A YELLOW MOOD
N SORRY I CUD NOT TAKE BOTH
BEING A TRAVELER I STOOD BY
N FINALLY TOOK THE OTHER,NOT SO FAIR
AND PERHAPS HAVING A BETTER CLAIM
'COZ IT WAS GREASY N FULL OF WEAR
YET DOUBTING TO WHERE IT LEADS
I TOOK THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED BY
N YES THAT'S MADE ALL THE DIFFERRENCE"

HAPPINESS

hi everbody
today i m going to talk about happiness
HAPPINESS-a very general term and what does it exactly signify

have you ever hugged a close frnd on his/her suceess,achievement etc ,look into their eyes thats "happiness"
Have you ever seen into the eyes of ur love

when you say "i m always there for u no matter what anybody says trust then takes the shape of"HAPPINESS"

ever thanked someone for care,compassion,n support -u may feel"happiness"
ever seen in ur parents eyes in anything to be proud of thats "happiness"

ever seen children dancing in rain thats "happiness"

the innocence of a child speaks of happiness alll around

n u know whats the most important reason to be happy?just dont find any ,just dont expect anything n u wud be the most happy person 
so wishing everybody moments filled with happiness


LISTEN TO THE RISE OF DAWN
LOOK TO THIS DAY
FOR ITS LIFE,THE VERY LIFE OF LIFE
IN ITS BRIEF COURSE LIE
THE REALITY OF UR EXISTENCE
THE BLISS OF GROWTH
THE GLORY OF ACTION
THE SPLENDOYR OF BEAUTY
FOR YESTERDAY IS BUT ADREAM
N TOMORROW IS AVISION
BUT TODAY WELL LIVED MAKES
EVERY YESTERDAY A DREAM OF HAPPINESS
N TOMORROW A VISION OF HOPE
LOOK WELL THEREFORE TO THIS DAY
SUCH IS SALUTATION OF DAWN

"education is a debt on present generation to be paid to future generation "
hi everybody
today i m going to share with you my experience,my work or you can say my passion
today i m going to share with you"pathshaala" -a school for slum children

a place where i may not teach them to earn bread but definately puts a smile on their faces.n in some nice way enlightens up their lives
it started with this slum on the outsirts of a railway colony where these children were day workers to earn a lil for their family
some did cleaning,some sellling.some were beggers  n dont be astonished some were pickpocketeers too they used to earn whole day n in evening settteled with some kind of addiction be it vicks or some snuff i saw their condition n thought "is this what a life to be"
started with councelling of a grp of children that they shud go to school,not use  addictive stuff n what not u know what the answer was-"didi ji hum nahi kamayenge to ghar me khana kaise banega" n an elder one said"hum log nasha larte hai taaki bhukh na lage"
that was an ultimate shock i realised its not the poverty thats the underlying problem but the illiteracy
that was the birth of paathshala -a tent, ablackboard.chalk.an d evening time
on 1st day only 4 boys then i went into slum to persuade people to send their children
ya the no increased the other day but only boys turned up 
i asked some families to send their girl child also n got the reply "dekhiye madam ji hume apni ladkiyo ko collector nahi banana ladkiya padhengi to kaam kaun karega ghar ka?jo bache aata hai unhe padhaiye nahi to chalte bane"
but then persuading female members worked out n they sent their daughters to study
now 34 of them study appear in state  xams privately n make their  "madamji" aproud teacher 
they paint,they make sculptures n sometimes i feel they are much more talented than me
"never loose hope for bringing out a change "
i wished to make a better life for them n succeded to an extent
somebody once asked me what did i get in return let me tell u what i got
one day i asked these children what they wannabe in future ,some said doctor,some engineer,a girl called rani wanted to be madhuri dikshit n a girl called lakshmi said-"mai aapke jaise banna chahti hu madamji"
so guys this is what i get love,compassion,respect n what more can i ask for
as nida fazli said
"GHAR SE MASJID HAI BAHUT DOOR CHALO YU KAR LE
GHAR SE MASJID HAI BAHUT DOOR CHALO YU KAR LE
KISI ROTE HUE BACHHE KO AAJ HASAYA JAAYE"

BUS ITNA YAAD RAHE EK SAATHI AUR BHI THA

hi everyone
i know u may be wondering what exactly i am trying to say thru this
yes one fine day we wake up from our cozy beds  into a lazy morning n we come to know that 76 jawans have lost their life in dantewada is this "what a life to be" so guys these are the real heroes of our country
a mother has lost his only son,an infant a father, a sister on the verge of her bidai lost her brother, a wife her life her husband n we have lost the real sons of soil
i sometimes try to admire n really cant understand from where comes this extraordinary courage,valor n patriotism its this deshbhakti that caused Major vikram batra to say"ye dil maange more"
its the patriotism that u can see in the innocent eyes of major unnikrishnan,in the strength of those CRPF jawans that went into the core naxalite belt so that we can live safely
why this hatred in the name of naxalism,millitants.terroristsetc ?why cant we live in a peaceful world where our brave men wud not have to lose thier lives just to ensure safety
so every indian salute these heroes
"there is no death, there shall be no death for those who move
onward,united in a spirit of unbeatable hope and courage
 "jab dosti ka diya in sarhado pe jale
jab bhul ke dushmani lag jaye sab gale
jab saare insaano ka ho ek hi kaafila
BUS ITNA YAAD RAHE EK SAATHI AUR BHI THA

I M A DADDY'S GIRL

hey everybody
today i m going to talk about the most important man in my life-my dad
ya i am a daddy's girl
u know why ;cos he is my best frnd,coolest guide.a gr8 companion n above all MY FATHER
from the struggling days of him he never let us know what pain n emptiness he had been through being a child without parents
n when we have grown up to live our own life ,to write our own destiny he is happy to see that lil creature whom he used to feed with his own hand turn into a big bird n fly alone in a new sky
he is nervous, with the fear that wings may not open but never expresses it
ya dad u are in my life an angel, agod's blessing the best gift i cud ever have n 4 me the strongest n the ideal person who has always set an example before me
these lines are for u
"walk a little slower daddy
said a child so small
i m folllowing ur footsteps n
i dont wanna fall

sometimes ur steps are very fast
sometimes they are hard to see
so walk a lil slower
'cos u r leading me

someday when i m all grown up
you are what i wanna be
then i will have a child
who would follow me

and i want to lead him right
and knowing that i can't be u
so walk a lil slower daddy
'cos i wanna follow u
only u

luv u daddy n i may not have said this but u r the hero of my life
n u r bigger than god 4 me

life is to live

hi everyone
this is me-SEHAR n this is what i want to say WHAT A LIFE TO BE?
the most beautiful place is the place we live in n what exactly have we made it
tons n tons of nuclear weapons,enemity,terrorism is definitely not the picture we wud like to show to our coming generations
life is to love,to care.to be concerned ,to share n above all TO LIVE
SO EVERYBODY ENJOY LIFE
meet u again
bye
