Awful loneliness

-

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 if there is no love among the family members, they can't understand  each other’s feelings nor the intensity of another’s sorrows. So in society there are so many families in which apparently all is well but there are so many injuries and hurt in everyone’s mind.                                                                                                                            

On such background, I know two examples which show that yet there are some hopes. I know a family in which mother became patient of diabetes and all family members left drinking tea, because the mother liked tea and the family didn’t want her to get tempted. In another example, nowadays, son and daughter-in-law in many families shift to a city for their child’s better education leaving their old parents back in village. But I know a son in a village,  who shifted to city with his children, wife and his widow mother. So let us hope that in every family there will be such sons.

WEAK-POINT OF PARENTS

When I saw in news, that Daud is in depression because of his son, there was no surprise for me. Because now, this is admitted fact that everyone can fight against the whole world, but not against own issues. So Daud who in his whole life fought against many nations and against the mankind, became helpless towards his Son. So taking disadvantages of this truth, many times, the children emotionally blackmail parents and compel the parents to behave according to their wishes.         In childhood, many among us ,had seen the movie “ Molakarin”. As I was child,I wasn't understanding why that mother was tolerating the behaviour of her son and of daughter-in-law. Why was she forgiving her son and loving him? Afterward I read the story of Hirakani. Moreover I read news about a mother that when a tiger attacked her son, she fought with that tiger and saved her son. Then I came to know that for the sons and daughters, the parents are always ready to ...

CREATIVITY

There is four years old Mini living near my house. Yesterday she came to my house and took me to her home forcibly to see her Rangoli. In fact there were only four five zigzag lines to which she was calling as peacock . But for the first time, she had drawn Rangoli, and there was great happiness on her face. When I saw her Rangoli and was praising her to encourage her, her grandmother came in that room with a delicious dish of banana pury. She told me that she had made that dish for the first time, and everyone in their house liked it very much. There was also the same happiness on her face like her granddaughter. It was the happiness of creativity. Yes! Creativity in every field gives the same happiness to everyone. That's why the poor person when builds or prepare a hut with his own hands, there is this happiness on his face as if he has built “Taj- Mahal”. If such creativity is praised by people,that artist's happiness increases. But he gets same happiness from his creatio...

GOD'S GIFT ?

Two days ago,I met our one relative. She is 85 years old lady. I have been looking her since 40 years. Till her age of 80 year, she was very active lady, doing her all duties in family, as well as in society. She, regularly exercised for an hour every day. She put in to practice all tips for health. So overall, she was very fit person and ideal person in society. But now, because of age factor, she is unable to stand, to walk and she suffers from gasping. Now she is very weak. So really it is very painful to see her present condition. The more painful thing is that she herself is aware about her past and present condition.             I know another old lady. She has crossed her 90 years age. For the whole life, she was a lady of calm and quiet nature and always taking precautions that there should be no nuisance to others because of her. But now, because of age factor,she has lost her control on her brain. So, now, for every m...
