TRIBUTE--(2)

  I suppose myself very lucky, because I got so good and generous father-in- law. He, really gave me support like my father. 40 years ago, this man of previous generation, encouraged me for more education and for my carrier. In Fact I was graduate at the time of my marriage,and according to the customs of that period, it was prestigious for the family, and after marriage, in every in-law family, it was expected that after marriage, the lady must give preference to the households and not to carrier. In such circumstances, he told me that I must take more education and start some honourable job, as I was scholar in my academic life. At the same time, he didn't compel me to choose any specific carrier. When I decided to take degree in law, he was happy. By chance, my guide in that field, was his friend.
         He also admired my cooking. On every festival, our family was joint family. And after gent’s  dinner, when we all ladies in family,took dinner, as a head of family, he always enquired whether every food item is sufficient for us and his more remarkable habit was that he was admiring the best food items of that day, then whoever might have prepared it.  What a positive encouragement for us! In my life, I noticed that this habit to admire the ladies of home, specially daughters-in-law, for their cooking skill is very rare. He had five daughters-in- laws, but he never scolded any among them.
       Some days ago, a newly married girl met me. She was complaining about the torture by her in-laws. She complained about her father-in-law that he was always abusing her, and for two times, he slapped her. At that time, I remembered my father-in-law's behaviour with me and I realised his greatness.

ON JANMASHTAMI

  It is believed that God always behaves ideal. So almost our all myths when tell us about God’s incarnation as a human being, they draw His character as ideal in His childhood and in young age also. Only,God Krishna is shown as behaving according to the age like a human being. From His childhood and in His throughout whole life, there is a mischievousness, which is very much liked by all human beings. Perhaps so, everyone feels more attachment for Krishna. Because, even in old age also even an ideal and disciplined human being likes mischievousness, though he himself could never behave so. In childhood, Krishna played fully with his friends, even stole curd and butter from milkmaid's houses with friends. At the same time, being God, he killed many monsters also. In young age, He played “Rasleela”with the milkmaid's. When He helped Arjuna to marry with His sister Subhadra, very mischievously he deceived Balaram. It means God Krishna is the best combination of God and human be...

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...

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...
