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 moment she has become very risky, because now no one can imagine how will she behave.Her family members have to pay attention towards her for every moment.
        I know a third person,who for the whole life was physically and mentally very strong person. But, now because of age factor, he is suffering from paralysis and so for every act, he has to depend upon others. Such condition is also very painful.
             At the same time, I also know some totally opposite examples. I know an 85 years old man, who is today also very strong and stout. Today also, he goes to farm  at 10 o'clock at night to watch after it  and remains there for the whole night. I know another old lady of 82 years, who was cooking for her family till last month of her life. She became bedridden only for a month. I know more 3 - 4 persons, who were physically fit at the age of 85 and really in that age, they were so active that they were really ideals for the young generation.
       So what conclusion should be drawn by us? Which precautions should we take to be healthy in oldest age? This is true that every person desires to be healthy and fit in his old age. None likes to be bedridden and dependent upon others. But is it possible for everyone or is it only God’s gift?

PURITY

  Even though, adulteration is crime, now a day, there is adulteration in almost every thing. There is adulteration in eatables like oil, ghee, mustard, turmeric, chilli powder, pepper, salt, honey, saffron, pulses,panir, ice-cream. There are chemicals sprinkled on vegetables to look fresh. Many times, fruits are rippen with the help of chemicals. Many times, apples are coated with wax to look attractive and fresh. Many times, watermelons are injected with chemicals to be sweet and red. In farms the farmers are using so much fertilizer, that it is affecting the crops and that crop is becoming injurious for health. In gold and silver jewelry, there can be adulteration of  alloyed metal. If we become ill because of the adulteration,and we take medicine, there is adulteration in medicine also. In short, today, purity has become rare.       This purity hasn't become rare only in eatables and other things, but also in mankind's relationship. So ma...

Colours of the days

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 o...

Normal journey became a trip

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...
