                    Drawbacks in life                                                        Have you noticed that in our surroundings if any person is less smart than average, the society treats him as if he is mad or very clumsy. If any person is suffering from pains in knees,yet he is eager for going on travel, the persons around him , instead of encouraging him, they protest him ,ridicule him by saying that he had traveled much and enjoyed much in previous life, so now he should not go out anywhere, but he should remain at home. If there is any bitter incident in anyone's life, after some period,that person tries to forget it and to come out from the effects of that incident,the persons around him , knowingly or unknowingly refer the incident and don't allow him to forget it. If our any friend or relative had done something wrong with us, afterward even though he had realised his mistake, apologized many times,yet we don't forgive him by heart.                         

Yesterday,I met our family friend -a retired person- and as formality, I asked him that how he was, he started to complain about his retired life. His main complaint was that for him now every day was similar to another,no change, no zest. Even on festival also except for some time, the remaining day was very dull for him. While speaking, he referred that after retirement, his all days are of grey colour,and yes, I also agreed with him on the point that days also have colours and various shades.                       Even though grammatically,a day is a concept and so it has no colour, no shape,no size. Again logically, day after day comes and it makes a week, month,a year and our life goes on. So a day doesn't differ from other days. Yet practically we have experience that if on a day, the climate is cloudy for the whole day, everyone feels dull, and as grey colour is symbol of dullness,we easily call that day as a day of grey colour. If there is rain for 2-3 days and afterward t

- Few days ago, I saw a news on t.v.about Asha Sahani. She was living at Lokhandwala in Mumbai alone. Her son Rituraj  is working in America in IT field. It means economically it is very sound family. For one and half year, the son didn't contact her. After this one and half year, when he returned to his mother's home, he found his mother's skeleton, lying on bed in her bedroom. No one knows when she died. What a shocking news! Death in such loneliness! Very horrible! For so many days no one in this world noticed her death!                                                                                                Such news compels us to think upon such progress, which makes us only machine, without feelings, love, attachments. There can be many elements responsible in this case, but this is true that such example is beyond our imagination. In fact just living under the same roof with family members is also not sufficient because many times it so happens that

Experience of trip is always delightful and memorable because we spend a lot of time with nature during trip much time we live with nature. But imagine if the nature accompanies you in your normal journey! Then that journey itself becomes a delightful and memorable trip.                                           Once, I experienced such journey.That journey was not at all arranged as a trip nor it was a long journey.I remember that it was 6th June and we all know that generally the climate is extremely hot during that time. That day too, the climate was extremely hot. I had to travel from Thane to Bhusawal. I started my journey from Thane in the afternoon at one o’clock. It was too hot to tolerate and we all were sweating and feeling very tired. Our train started in such climate and as it was arriving at the next station, we were experiencing various shades of nature. After an hour, the clouds started gathering and slowly became thick. Before Manmad station, the clouds became so thic
