What a day !!
Yesterday! The weather wasn’t friendly and I had slight headache, but still I had so many things in my to-do list. One lift wasn’t working. The working one smelled kerosene. There was heavy traffic on the road….I was supposed to get a document from my son’s school but they said it is not yet ready. Then the gas agency people asked for a supporting document which I do not have. Two disappointments in a row!
Then, all of a sudden, like a pregnant woman, I felt like eating a particular sweet which was available only at a particular store (I have not seen that anywhere else except in their chain stores). I took a wrong route and happened to proceed further at a cross road which forced me to travel about a kilometer to take a U-turn. Then this slow moving traffic with a hell lot of motor vehicles. At the end, I missed the store and decided to get away from the traffic and reach home.
On my way, I decided to buy a somewhat similar tasting sweet from a store near my apartment. I got a good parking, went to the store and they had the sweet I was looking for. I paid the money, collected my bag and went home. I changed my dress , washed my face and opened the box and there lies some pieces of fruit cake !!! Dressed up again, drove to the store and accepted that salesman’s sheepish smile and came back. Before changing dress, I opened the box, and ate one to make sure that the sweet is for real. I thought I just talk to somebody about my day. There was only one person online (others were either busy or invisible or out of touch) I waited for a ‘hi’ from her…one minute… 10 minute….one hour….no, no response…my son was about to return home from his school by 4.15. I was waiting in the balcony. 4.20, 4.30, 4.45….his bus did not come…..Man, enough is enough!
If a day starts like this, we better postpone the things in our to-do list, if possible, to avoid further disappointments. And if we believe in God, we better do a couple of rounds of rosary (at least 108 counts)… It is said that, even Lord Shiva had to suffer the influence of Saturn when he was on earth…Krishna, Buddha, Jesus…they too had their share of bitter days when they were here. It is better we keep our cool, coz some days are like that, we can’t help it.

Illness and God
Illness is not cured by saying the word medicine, but by taking medicine. Enlightenment is not achieved by repeating the word God but by directly experiencing God.

Beautifully Speaking...
I grew up in an environment where I did not hear any swear words from any of the women members (can not remember any male member too) of my family and relatives. It was not part of the middle class people’s culture (We might hear it in slums or among upper class people (but they say it in English)). This could be one reason that I do not like to hear bad words spoken by women.
When foul words come even from world’s most kissable lips, it takes away the beauty…isn’t it so?

Moving Moving
I was out of station for sometime. I love long drives. I was satisfied with my driving. These long drives are one moment that makes me feel greedy for high-end cars and good quality roads. I am a ‘slowman’ who love speeds.
The trip was successful but one strange thing about this trip is that I did not use the camera, not even once, even at the beach. Before the start of the journey, I told my wife that we should take lots of photos and it ended up with no photos (except couple of them taken by my mobile). It’s really a shame that too considering the beach was quite known for filming and neighborhood is filled with film actors...
Only one friend complained me for not telling in advance about my travel. Yes, I should have told. But does it matter that much when a person moves from one place to another in this virtual reality world? I wonder…
What difference it makes when one of my Philippino friend moves to Dubai or one Indonesian friend moves to Singapore? Logically it doesn’t make any difference as long as the touch is maintained. But somehow I feel that there is some difference…I don’t know what or where
Can time tell me that?
Let me wait and see, after all, its official now…I am going to make a big move
