<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In fact we are so busy looking
at our goals, celebrating success and achievements that we seldom listen to ourselves. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">On the contrary we look towards others for authenticating our self..... </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Why it is so ? Why we need to look at someone else…???<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In all the chaos of everyday
life as we run here and there from morning to evening… Right from the moment we
leave our bed till the time when we fall again on our bed.... </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Do we ever take single
quite moment for ourselves…???<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">A single moment where we can
remain with ourselves only.... <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Just a single moment…..</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">A moment when there is no reflection but just to be..... <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">A moment in which ME and only ME exist, doing nothing at
all....... <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">YOU just YOU.....and I just ME......<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 18px;">No one nearby... </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 18px;">Neither physically nor even in thoughts.....</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">In fact there is not a single
moment which we can call as MY-TIME...</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">During which we can remain with no
one else but only silence.... </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Silence they say is great healer......<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Being silent does not mean
keeping mum.....</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Being in silence means, "being with yourself....</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">talking to yourself."</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 13.5pt;">Silence, which allows you to look into your inner self….<o:p></o:p></span><br />

time of prayer has come, so that people can stop their worldly affairs and come to
the mosque to pray. There was a time when people had no wrist watches, no smart
phones, no printed time tables etc. Hence Azaan was certainly required to let the
people know that it’s time to pray. The scenario is no more same now, we have
so many gadgets and apps to remind ourselves for prayer timings, and hence I
personally feel that loudspeakers are not something that is going to have any
effect on our prayers, whether we have them or not.</span></b></div>

worldwide religion. Not to mention that, there were no loudspeakers during life

However, </span><span style="background-color: #fafafa; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">as a developing nation, India has
observed endless social problems, one leading to the other.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;"> Some of these problems have their
roots in our colonial past while others are related to demographic changes,
socio-political conditions and cultural processes. </span><span style="background-color: #fafafa; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">However, every social problem is inter-related</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;"> but for me </span><span style="background-color: #fafafa; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">one major social problem is corruption and it is the sole
cause of many other social problems. If this is not dealt at an earliest, it will lead to many other
social issues as well and will continue to be a hindrance in development of the
country.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; line-height: 115%;">In
fact the word “corruption” has become so popular in the present Indian society
that even a totally illiterate person, having no knowledge of English alphabets

disease and utter out this word with utmost ease and accurate pronunciation.<span class="apple-converted-space"> Actually, </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">India,
the world’s largest and most stable democracy is worst affected
by the menace of corruption. In such a large country with a population of over
120 crore belonging to various religions, the corruption has spread so widely in almost every sphere of life that i</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">n fact corruption has become a part of our national culture. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 115%;">Our nation has vested the power in the individual and he has left no stone unturned in order to get rich quickly.

Our growth would be tremendous in all the spheres and we would be an "independent economy entity" within a short time period. In fact the black market economy, corrupt bureaucrat, industrial malpractices and dishonesty in administration have led to the generation of a parallel economy whose magnitude is much larger than our national budget.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-57IhCLEazEo/UNLdLSEjzpI/AAAAAAAAA-Y/QxcVHFY9tkI/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-57IhCLEazEo/UNLdLSEjzpI/AAAAAAAAA-Y/QxcVHFY9tkI/s320/1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">(image source-google)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We all know that in ancient Indian scriptures, woman was given a glarified status. She was an embodiment of shakti, no religion ceremony was complete without her. Savitri, Parvati, Sita, Ahilya were the role models of Indian society.....In later days, during the freedom struggle Aruna Asaf Ali, Sarojini Naidu, Kasturba Gandhi, Sucheta kirplani and other women played excellent role for the libration of their motherland from the Britishers. They fought against all odds, so that at no point of time their commitment or energy could be derated with those of their male counterparts during those times.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With the advent of the technology dominated era and commercialism our women have also changed. The shy n not so bold female in the saree have been replaced by a youthful, fashion conscious and smart girl in jeans and T-shirts. Whenever needed they are more hard working and sincere in all the walk of life and more productive than their male counterpart and no one can deny that at present women have been playing major roles in politics, economy, household, society and nation building.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Today we have woman as a speaker of Lok Sabha, a woman chair person of the ruling coalition govt and not to mention that just couple of months back we had a woman President too. Not only this, recently when Saina Nehwal and Mary Kom came back with those glittering Olympic medals in their hands then there was a status update on social networking sites saying "Performance of Sania Nehwal and Mary Kom is enough proof to have more n more girl children in India...."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But unfortunately every time we start making an opinion that the condition of woman have improved, there is Guwahati or Delhi type of unfortunate incident, where a girl is molested n stripped by a mob or gang reaped and the status of women in the society suffers a jolt. The most important thing is, the incidents like Guwahati n Delhi makes one to believe that our women are not safe even in the educated urban environment.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There was a <a href="http://www.dnaindia.com/bangalore/report_one-woman-raped-every-34-minutes-in-india-study_1504823" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;"><i>report</i></span></b></a> by The south Indian Council for Human Rights Education and Monitoring in Feb 2011 which says "One woman is molested every 26 minutes, One woman is raped every 34 minutes and one-fourth of the 15 million girls born every year don't even get to celebrate their 15th birthday....." Now after looking at this report one can easily understand that its not only Guwahti or Delhi which has witnessed such fateful incidents but such things have been happening in this country at regular intervals, irrespective of the states n cities....But as a human what do we do....???? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, the moment such things happen, each of us start condemning it through all means, including dharnas, candle march etc.... Even our own blog world starts over flowing and showing its concern for the victim n their family but after couple of days or weeks, each of us get busy doing our own business and its the victim who only continue to suffer n goes through the mental trauma through out her life.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I remember it was the same scenario when the girl was molested on the roads of Guwahati, everybody(sitting in dining room) was ready to kill the culprits, all the news channels were busy discussing the whole story day n night....it was like now or never....but what happened after few days, as usual every thing became normal for the entire nation.... Did anyone ever tried to peep into the life of the victim, how is she coping up with her life...???</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Whether she got justice or not...???</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Did any of us ever tried to know whether culprits got fixed or not....??? or,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Did we the Civilised Indians ever came again on any social platform asking to the authorities that why culprits have not been fixed yet....???</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">No, we didn't... In fact, we never do that, perhaps we tend to forget such things very easily and its only get reminded to us when something similar happens somewhere again.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Unless we change this attitude nothing will change.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Its not that we lack the laws to protect women, in fact there are laws which literally protect them right from womb and through out their life. But the fact is, even after having these laws women continue to suffer at the hands of the system n society. Perhaps our great nation is still struggling to have proper mind set to use the laws and deal with those people who commit such sinful n brutal act....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Enough is enough.... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The time for talk is over.... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Its high time to take some action, to stop this shame.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Each of us know this fact that decay and death are inevitable.....We all very well know that our Karmas(deeds) would bring us befitting rewards or punishments depending upon their nature and intentions, as there is this common saying "as you sow, so shall you reap"...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But the unfortunate part is that even after knowing all this, most of us use our powers and influences for the destruction of our opponents n competitors. Actually we forget that there could be reprisals.... And that too these reprisals may not be from the victim only but from the Almighty himself. After all God is the great paymaster.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even history has so many evidences and we can very well see that whoever looted the masses and deprived them of their lives, properties and dignity, they never lived in peace in the latter stages of their lives.....</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For example, "Alexander the Great" invaded India and conquered it with the help of his men(that include the traitors of our nation). He looted the masses and butchered thousands of innocent people....After all his ill-doing in the most prosperous nation of those times, he left India and fell sick while he was going home in Macedonia and even the best medicines could not cure him.... His mother called the doctors treating him and asked about the reason of his son not getting any relief from the disease. The learned doctor took her to the sea beach and threw a dose of medicine in the ocean water. The water frozen within few seconds, then the doctor told the queen that "see even this strong medicine is not giving any relief to your son and he did not have any medicine better than this."...... </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In fact so intense was his dysentery that he could not survive for long due the severity of the disease..... What I mean to say is that even "Alexander the Great" was not spared by the Almighty for his wrong done.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In fact each and every religion support this theory that we all have to pay for our sins one way or other. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But unfortunately we the human(so called) does not understand this fact and resorts to all kinds of immoral activities for making money and getting whatever we aspire to get. Since time immemorial, man has been ruling with the help of the 'swords n guns' and has exploited his weak counterpart by overlooking the fact that diseases, loss in business, accidents, natural calamities are the natural sequels of his karmas. May be perhaps we forget that our every misdeed or good deed would be judged by the Almighty.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In short, our action shapes our life to come. So all of us must beware that we build our future life in the right way. So let our field of life be sown with the seeds of good deeds, so that we may reap a rich harvest of happiness.....!!!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">(image from google)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Take a look around, how many men do you see having those thick n shining moustaches and moving comfortably with their rough-tough looks....yes, you are very right, there are very few now a days who like to pose themselves with those thick n shining moustaches. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Interestingly its not only those who are in their 20s and starting a relationship but a large chunk of men in their 40s can also be seen lining up for clean shaves, waxing and even going for laser removal of hair on their arms, legs and chest as well.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Believe it or not, men were not always this way. In fact there was a time when these men proudly used to say "<b><i>Moochien hon to Nathu Laal jaisi...vernaa....</i></b>".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Did you ever thought, what happened to our old fashioned, stubble, unkempt hair men, who were able to get dressed in two minutes....????</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Are our guys tapping more into their feminine sides....????</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Is it the organised and aggressive marketing trend, forcing men to go for all those things which were once considered GIRLY....???? or,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Is it that, women themselves wilfully feminised men to make them less masculine, so that these chocolaty looking men can be less challenging to women's ambitions....????</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Though women themselves can answer that well, but in my views its not so and I personally feel that "just as men prefer women to retain their femininity, women love for men to take care of themselves but retain masculinity....." </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, how did this pattern shifted from a rusty masculine look to a chocolaty one....????</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, if you ask me, my idle mind is simply coming to the conclusion that "its only that men are just turning into better looking men" and their is nothing wrong into it as long they are able to retain their masculinity. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">BTW according to you, what can be the reason behind this transition of men, from rusty to chocolaty....????</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It seems </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">that </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">yesterday </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">only I met you, but as you know, I started this journey with you exactly two years back and during these two years you did so much for me. In fact you made my life so much better that now I know a lot more about myself, hence I take this opportunity to thank you for broadening my horizons and I will be forever grateful to you for that.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I must tell you that during this period, my journey with you have been awesome which has given me an </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">opportunity</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> to discover a new ME via YOU. You are the first thing that I mention as my hobby now a days and it feels great to see that I have posted 90 posts </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">so far, </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">including this one. Though it could have been much more but there are </span><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2012/07/time-most-precious-commodity.html" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">times</span></b></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> in our lives when we cannot do what we like </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">most</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">to do and this is what happening with me since last couple of months. Actually its the circumstances that force us to change our </span><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/10/our-priorities-and-their-outcome.html" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">priorities</span></b></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> during our journey of </span><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2012/05/purpose-of-human-life.html" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">life</span></b></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and at the moment my circumstances are somehow not allowing me n you for </span><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/06/holding-together.html" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">holding together</span></b></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But if you ever feel that I have forgotten you as I am not able to post frequently then you are little wrong. I would like to tell you that at-least once in a day a thought of APNiBOLi passes my mind and my frequency of posting may have reduced but I can assure here that you will always be a part of me..... I can proudly say that APNiBOLi has been one of the best things I have done so far in my life and even the thought of it brings a spark of happiness in me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dear APNiBOLi, it has been such a pleasure to share </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">with you </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">some of the things that I <a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/06/expressing-love-with-time-n-technology.html" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">love</span></b></a> in life. Let me tell you that its not that you provided me </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">only a </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">platform for sharing ideas and thoughts but you also gave me an </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">opportunity</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> to create a community of like minded people.... Y</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ou might be having an opinion that its only <a href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/irfan.uddin.54" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color: red;">me</span></strong></a> behind your success, so let me tell you that there are many people who have supported and participated in my journey with you and without whom our journey would not have been so fun. Hence I take this opportunity to thank all of them(the silent & the loud ones) for their visits and for sharing their views. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So a BIG THANKs to ALL my blogging friends and </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">to</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">all those silent readers out there, for inspiring me to keep on blogging. </span><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/09/i-wish.html" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><b><span style="color: red;">I wish</span></b></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> n hope that my ongoing relation with all of them will continue in future too and will get stronger day by day(insha allah). Once again I would like to extend my sincere thanks to all my blogger friends without mentioning their name because they all know who they are.....</span><br />

<span id="goog_960238081"></span><span id="goog_960238082"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-E0CZofzqzII/UGSb0fgNERI/AAAAAAAAA8E/ZB5N8Nbl-ZE/s1600/images.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-E0CZofzqzII/UGSb0fgNERI/AAAAAAAAA8E/ZB5N8Nbl-ZE/s200/images.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We all travel from one place to other and this act of moving from one place to other is called <b>journey</b>. And if you observe, you will find that different people like different act while they travel. Some prefer reading books or magazines.... Some of them like indulging in conversation with their co-passengers.... Some simply snooze....</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">etc, etc.....</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> But off late I have found that there are plenty who like to listen music during their journey. One of the reason may be that "variety of electronic gadgets are available today at affordable price and they are easy to carry too".....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Though in older days also when these gadgets weren't there, people used to carry their battery operated radio-transistors. But now because of easy availability of these tiny gadgets, you can find more n more people with an earphone plugged into ear and listening their favorite songs even if they are riding bi-cycles or walking besides the road.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Music, as we all know is the soul of Indian culture and Hindi songs are the important part of Indian music...... And undoubtedly Hindi movies provide us immense variety of songs for every situation n mood in our life, same way there are plenty of Hindi songs based on the philosophy of journey itself.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, no one can deny with the fact that <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wZDU-DDTOU"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wZDU-DDTOU" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Zindagi ek Safar hai Suhaana, Yahaan Kal Kyaa Ho Kisne Jaana</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">..... and rightly so, as they say "Life is a beautiful journey filled with uncertainties......" </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There are people who simply believe in the </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">philosophy</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v8XJ8zJEjs"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v8XJ8zJEjs" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Nadiyaa Chale - Chale re Dhaara, Tujhko Chalnaa Hoga</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">.... and these people always try to sail through all the difficulties they have in their way and even if they are left alone during their journey they keep on moving and say..... </span><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5UJCk98Co8" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pflINcgXW9Q" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Chal Akela - Chal Akela, Tera Melaa Peeche Choota Saathi Chal Akela</span></a><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Similarly there are times when we are not very sure about our destination or even if we know destination then sometimes we are not so sure about reaching there and then we like singing <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGlYPII3JJg"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGlYPII3JJg" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Hazaar Rahein Mud K Dekhi, Kahin Se Koi Sadaa Na Aayi</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we know, in this journey of life, people come n go....and each of them leave behind their memories for their loved ones, as this song says.... "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiY_Xd4Xrx4"><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiY_Xd4Xrx4" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Aadmi Musaafir Hai - Aata Hai Jaata Hai</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Remember this song from the movie Imtihaan <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsBPLFr3i5k"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsBPLFr3i5k" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Ruk Jaana Nahin Tu kahin Haar Ke</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">...... you will find this an inspiring one, specially if at any point of your journey, you just start feeling like tired or depressed..... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On the other hand when your journey is a pleasant one(<span style="font-size: x-small;">i wish it remain always</span>) and you are enjoying it like anything then you can very well tune into <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYEJ2LBpzkA"><span style="color: black;">"</span><span style="color: red;"></span></a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYEJ2LBpzkA" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Suhaana Safar Aur Yeh Mausam Haseen</span></a><span style="color: black;">"</span></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And the list is too long.... endless infact...... So, its not possible for me to include those many wonderful songs here on this journey theme. Therefore I have included only some of them according to my subjective choice...... But as you know, the mode of journey can be any....even by foot.... and its the spirit of travelling which is important.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So friends, this weekend when you go on a long drive, just don't forget to carry your i-pad or whichever gadget you like, just load it with all those fabulous songs subjective to your choice and enjoy every moment of your journey. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Have a melodious weekend.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: center;"><br /></span>

</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vVJEd9kOQp4/UEdqClgbctI/AAAAAAAAA5U/K86DUjeduA0/s1600/letter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vVJEd9kOQp4/UEdqClgbctI/AAAAAAAAA5U/K86DUjeduA0/s320/letter.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we know, way of communication has changed remarkably during the last decade and its getting faster day by day, thanks to ever developing technology..... In fact now we are at the stage where we can communicate </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">instantaneously </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">with our dear ones, no matter in which part of the world they are living. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And in this digital era when each of us are living every moment of our life being in touch with our 'family n friends' and when our life revolves around technology, I sometimes miss those old fashioned hand written letters. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I know, I am probably weird but seeing the handwriting of my 'relatives n friends' is something which I miss a lot these days and somehow feel that letter writing is a dying art now :(</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Though we all enjoy sharing information and emotions through emails and SMSs but I am sure that our gen-next must be missing those colorful handwritten love letters which has been replaced by the latest innovated ways of <a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/06/expressing-love-with-time-n-technology.html"><span style="color: red;">expressing love</span></a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I remember, I used to write lot of letters during my college days. The habit actually started when I left my home for studies. After leaving home, letter was the only affordable way to be in touch with 'family n friends' because it was not so easy to afford phone those days... I remember while going from home after every holiday, my Dad used to give me a bundle of new postcards with the instruction to post at least one a weak, so that he could know how I was doing with my studies and other activities. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even after arrival of email's I continued writing letters to my Dad and while going through his stuffs after his death, </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">to my surprise, </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I found a bundle of letters written to him by 'relatives n friends' and not to mention there were few written by me to him. It is really an unexpected record of tales and observations by different people who were communicating with him regularly, so you can imagine my excitement when I discovered that treasure in the form of hand written letters.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">While these letters would not mean much to anyone else, to me they are priceless...I simply love looking on them, touching them, crying over them...Though people may feel that its nothing more than being emotional but going through those written stuff is something that I love doing often.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I said, may be I am weird, but I feel that no matter how much personal we try to be while typing emails or composing those emotional SMSs, there is always a lack of feeling and emotions into it, when we compare them to hand written letters. In fact whenever we write a letter, we let our feelings flow to our finger tips and pour it on paper...And when the person on the other end reads those wonderfully written words, can easily feel our emotions and connect with the thoughts we had while writing those words.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But over the period of time, I have also become a tech-friendly guy who can not stay anywhere without his 'keyboard n monitor' and feel suffocating if the environment is not filled with those invisible rays of </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">magical</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">wi-fi...And I must admit that of-late even my language skill has become a hybrid between eloquently flowing description to short electronically generated correspondences filled with </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: xx-small;">(emotionless)</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Smileys and <span style="font-size: xx-small;">(meaningless)</span>lolls......</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But thrill of receiving a letter from 'relatives n friends' is still the same for me and all those people are really special to me who can pick up the paper, write their feeling and pour their heart on that piece of paper.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">BTW, when did you last received a written letter....??? and,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you had written your last letter to someone....???</span><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ObsnQmFmgeo/UC6MpVZLvsI/AAAAAAAAA44/_qqdVahF0nI/s1600/images.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ObsnQmFmgeo/UC6MpVZLvsI/AAAAAAAAA44/_qqdVahF0nI/s1600/images.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(image source - google)</span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Issues and topics which help eradicating social evils are always something we like to talk about because we believe it generates awareness among the mass, but the sad part is that most of us are busy 24x7 only in discussing these social evils and never ever try to put our thoughts into action.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But there are people around us who think n act differently and who don't believe in mere lip's exercise but actually dare to step aside and follow a path which is not so easy for most of us to follow. And it is unfortunate that these people have not been recognised by society as well as by the authorities for what they have done and most of them remain unsung heroes through out their life.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Even our media(print as well as visual) never bothers to let us know about these people who have made a difference to themselves and to society, perhaps our media people have no time for such causes because they are busy in following and showcasing the issues which are trending and mostly related with our celebrities. And they do this because we as viewers also have a tendency to follow n listen these celebrities, no matter how much shit they do or talk.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But about a fortnight back on 5th August, I saw the debut episode of a TV show <b>"Lakhon Mein Ek"</b> on Star Plus. The show is based on the true inspiring stories of real people, who are as common as we are but they don't merely talk or discuss as our celebrities do sitting in air-conditioned studios, rather these unsung heroes believe in their acts but somehow they have not been acknowledged for what they have done.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of these unsung heroes is <b>Akhtari Bai</b>, whose story was shown in the first episode of the show "Lakhon Mein Ek". She is a widow from Ranchi, who makes envelopes for her living. By selling her hand made envelopes in the local market she could hardly manage three square meal for her family and yet she never thought twice while adopting those abandoned girl children who had been thrown by their own parents. Not only did she adopted them but she raised them like her own two children and never ever differentiated them from their own children. For sure she is amongst us, she is a common human as we are, who faces same day-to-day problems like we do but her love for abandoned girl children and the sacrifices that she has been doing through out her life to raise those adopted children makes her special. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Her life story is really heart touching and inspiring one.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In a society which is full of selfish people, Akhtari bai lives with a difference. I salute her and her noble deeds. But i am feeling very sorry to say that even after two weeks of the show, Akhtari Bai could not get any space in the media and no one bothered to know about her. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Is it because the show "Lakhon Mein Ek" is yet not popular as "<b>Satyamave Jayate</b>" was or because the anchor of the show is not someone like <b>Amir Khan</b>, who can make any damn show hit n popular with his stardom....?? </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Whatever may be, for me people like Akhtari Bai are real celebrities who are working day n night for humanity even with their minimum resources.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And BTW don't you think that all </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">those </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">celebrities </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">sitting in the air-conditioned TV studios and talking big-big things about "</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2012/06/save-humanity.html" style="color: red; font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: red;">human n humanity</span></a>"</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> should take a lesson from people like Akhtari Bai and start doing something in reality without being surrounded by TV cameras....???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br />
</span></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As we all know India turns an year older so its Independence day today and as usual people are singing Patriotic songs, tweeting Patriotic </span><a href="https://twitter.com/pen_irfan" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">tweets</span></a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> and no to mention hoisting national flag......And it feels good to see how much we love our Independence that we got after so much of hardship and sacrifices made by our great freedom fighters.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">No need to say that we all love our country but over the period of time I have a feeling that ours is not an easy country to love, where even death has become a sort of business, since the doctor signing the death certificate, the police Wallas and not to mention the morgue, they all want some amount of donation from the family of deceased to expedite the whole thing.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Actually the system in which we all live is so horrible that it always ensures to remind us that we live in India where politicians are a joke and people responsible for law n order are simply barbaric n inhuman. So there is lot that is not right and can be better with India....</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We don't have regular things like electricity or good roads and even good leadership to lead us.... In fact these things are almost non-existent and we always complain about it, actually we leave no chance to curse n abuse our authorities for those shortcomings.....</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But, what have WE done...???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yes, WE.....</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What have we done for India as an Indian...???</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 17px; text-align: left;">Frankly speaking I did nothing apart from cursing our leaders n authorities.... :(</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 17px; text-align: left;">And YOU...???</span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For example, when it comes for cleanliness of our cities we simply blame the municipal authorities and even I agree that they are not doing enough, but what we are doing from our part to keep our city clean....NOTHING.... Rather, the garbage coming out from our houses is simply thrown on road sides and we don't even bother to put it into the dustbins kept by the municipal authorities...... Likewise there are many more such acts that we do and we should not and must not.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It is easy to blame the Govt n authorities and compare ourselves with other countries, how they are doing better....But while doing so, do we ever think what are we doing from our part to make India a country like others are..???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We must not forget that India have a long way to go, but is it going to get there by constant bitching and moaning...??? NO..... Change is needed, and this change will have to come from our part by changing our attitude towards our duties for nation building, as we have our attitude regarding our democratic rights.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, let's do our part and when we say "Mera Bhaarat Mahaan", we must think of what we can do to make "Bhaarat Mahaan" in true senses.... We all admire our love for India and its tri-colour on Independence Day but the important thing is that we must try to retain this love for all 365 days.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Come, lets celebrate India's Independence day with great enthusiasm by hoisting flag and saluting it, but make sure that there would be no flag lying unattended tomorrow on road.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />

</div><div style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">As far as Indian weddings are concerned, because of our social structure arranged marriages are more preferred or we can say this type of marriage dominates the Indian culture and society. On the other hand love marriages are always considered forbidden by a majority of people in our society. May be because they don't want to look at life from the angle known as modernism. Though over the period of time the percentage of love marriage has also increased drastically, may be because our gen-next is getting more and more exposure of western culture. But still love marriages are considered inferior by majority of parents in our country and somehow they have a feeling that arrange marriages are there to last long as compared with love marriages.</span></span></div><div style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><br />
</span></span></div><div style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><span style="color: #333333;">Some of you may not agree but I personally believe that destiny also plays a role in bringing those two people together who ultimately go into a relationship which fulfill their need for intimacy and emotional nourishment. And its only because of the destiny that many people who thought they would marry only for love, ended up in arrange marriages or vice-versa and lived their entire life happily with their respective life partner, in short type of marriage didn't had any effect on their married life. So friends, what I mean to say that "as long as your better half doesn't become bitter half, it doesn't matter how you marry, what matters is how you live with your spouse after marriage so that you remain a better half and not bitter half", because whatever it is "</span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/LoveYaArrange/"><span style="color: red;">Love Marriage Ya Arranged Marriage</span></a><span style="color: #333333;">", once you are married, a marriage is just a marriage and</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;"> to make it successful, one should always....</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>Listen with the ears of tolerance !</i> </span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>See through the eyes of compassion !</i></span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><i><span style="color: #333333;">Speak with the language of love !

Anyone who is planning to marry must be mentally prepared for the commitments and responsibilities coming in after marriage....And if at all there is a second thought about it then he/she must not go for marriage unless they make up their mind</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">The fact of the matter is, every marriage is a social event, so it has to be arranged....And arranged by whom is not important but to make any </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">marriage</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">successful what is important that one has to have love in it....That love happens before or after is entirely a matter of chance.

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">So, the best way is, "</span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">arrange the love in your marriage, no matter what type of marriage you undergo....</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; line-height: 22px;">"</span></span></div><div style="background-color: white; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;">After all "<b>a successful marriage </b></span></span> <span style="color: #333333; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>requires</b></span></span> <span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 22px;"><b> falling in love many times with the same person....</b>" (</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">Mignon McLaughlin)</span><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you know during this blessed month of Ramadan we abstain from food, drink and other physical needs during the day light hours. Essentially this is the month of cleaning up our lives, our thoughts and our feelings. In fact fasting is not merely physical but is rather the total commitment of the person's body and soul to the spirit of fast. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Apart from all those uncountable benefits what I personally like about this blessed month is that "while controlling on hunger, thirst and other physical needs one gets a chance of practicing to have a control on his/her nerves and in turn on their emotions"..... And I personally feel that once we learn to have a control over our nerves then we can very well restrain ourselves from committing those sins which we sometimes do under the influence of our nerves.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And if you see around then you will find that most of the ill-happenings are because people at that very moment just could not control their nerves and it is the sudden rush of blood which causes them to do those sinful acts.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What I mean to say here is "people who do not know to have a control on their nerves or emotions are frequently get engaged in fights, substance abuse or even unprotected sex which can literally put their life into danger.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some of you may say that emotions are needed in order to live life fully and even I admit that.... undoubtedly emotions are very powerful as they largely affect the way we think and act, but for some people emotions can be strong enough to take over what their brain actually wants to dictate. In fact loosing nerves overrides logical reasoning and results in performing all those unreasonable and sinful acts.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Actually at times our emotions can encourage us to do bad or even worst things, so learning the way to control them is essential and to control our emotions we must practice to have a control on our nerves.... And with the grace of almighty God, during this blessed month I am happily practicing the technique to have a control over my nerves.....!!</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Friends,</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Yesterday I saw a short movie on YouTube. The name of the movie is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCdo6oUv0qQ/"><strong><span style="color: red;">"asl plz"</span></strong></a> , and the story of that short movie is somewhat like this.....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">There are two characters into it, a boy and a teen age girl....Somehow they meet over internet and start chatting with each other, using their funky chat names...over the period of time their formal chat changes into romantic one.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">After knowing that both of them are from the same city the boy started insisting to meet her and finally that girl also gives her consent for the meet. Hence they mutually decided for a meeting and the venue is a cabin of some cyber cafe.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Now a scene appears there on the screen where the girl is sitting inside the cabin waiting impatiently for the boy to come....After few moments the boy also appears into the cyber cafe, with a red rose in his hand and knocks the cabin door.....Slowly the door opens and the moment they see each other "<i>they are simply shocked</i>"......</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><b>"Yeah, shocked....because they happened to be own brother n sister"</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><br />
</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Further movie goes into the flash back showing them living in the same house and sitting into their respective rooms they used to flirt with each other through internet....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Watching this climax scene even I was shocked too. It was like facing the truth rather bitter truth of our society and my idle mind was thinking that "where are we heading towards....?"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">In fact, over the period of time, a big chunk of our youth have learnt to present themselves like what they are not actually and somehow they like to be identified with their funky chat names glittering on their computer screen.....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>Don't you think that they as an individual are changing so fast in this ever changing technology supported environment that they are even on the verge of losing their own identity, which is really unfortunate.....!!!</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i><br />

</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While cleaning and re-arranging bookshelf today, I got one of the diary written by my father. </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Apart from writing short stories and poem in urdu </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he was very fond of writing his daily-diary in </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the form of </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">beautiful rhyming notes and while reading those short but precise notes </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I feel like talking </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to him..... </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways coming on to the subject......</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">While reading those pages my idle mind was thinking that why do someone writes daily-diary </span><span style="background-color: white;">or why do we write our personal blogs...??? And personally </span><span style="background-color: white;">I</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">feel that </span><span style="background-color: white;">apart from many other factors one of them is, <i>"when we write something, we just want to keep those </i></span><i><span style="background-color: white;">moments on pause into these pages, so that if someone go through these after decades, </span><span style="background-color: white;">he/she may feel like living in that time and feel those moments."</span></i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Though we all know that no one can stop the time even then by writing diary, <span style="background-color: white;">by drawing sketches on canvases or by clicking photos we often try to catch-hold that particular moment n time.....</span></span><span style="background-color: white;">As a matter of fact its not the 'time' that we are holding into these pages or canvas, </span><span style="background-color: white;">rather it is the impression of that particular time which we keep there.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">In fact, time has got so much important role to play in our life that we often start </span><span style="background-color: white;">measuring</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">distances in 'time' and not in meters or kilometers.... </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Look at it.....</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">"</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">दिल्ली से लखनऊ की दूरी आठ घंटे की है" </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">( <span style="font-size: x-small;">Delhi se Lucknow ki doori Aath ghante ki hai</span> )</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"> </span></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here we are not talking about the distance in terms of Kilometers but in terms of time....WHY...??? </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is just because whatever may be the distance, its time that counts more </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">for us. And through out the journey we keep on looking at time, so here time is more important than anything else.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Similarly you can easily find people saying..... </span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"</span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">हवाई सफ़र ने दो शहरों की दूरी कम कर दी है"</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">(<span style="font-size: x-small;">Hawaai safar ne do shahron ki doori kam kar di hai</span>)</span></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Now, we all know that distance between two places can't be reduced and in fact </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">when we travel by air, </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">it is </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the time taken in the journey that gets reduced....... and to reduce that journey time we spend more money, again time is more important here than money.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">n our day-to-day life also, we often find people saying....</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">क्या करें वक़्त ही नहीं मिलता"</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 28px;">(<span style="font-size: x-small;">kya karen waqt hi nahi milta</span>)</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;"> </span></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On the other hand, there are others too who manage their time so well that they </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">have enough of it. As a matter of fact we all have 24 hours in a day but the thing is "how we manage these 24 hours...." </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And if you observe then may find that our mind also keeps us reminding to maintain the 'time' and complete </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">our assignments before its deadline.... In fact <em>it seems like there is a virtual clock in our mind which keeps on moving </em></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>and hence we wake up in the morning and get ready for our work or college in time</em>....... </span><br />
<div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now the question is "What is time...???"....... </span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Is it a materialistic thing, an energy, any physical status or nothing at all and only a myth.... Or simply it is the ticking of that clock hanging on the wall.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Well, whatever it may be "a myth" or "a reality".... we cannot deny that it has become the most precious commodity into our life and if we closely look at the clock on that wall, we can perfectly feel it ticking away, marching on in the same direction with horrifying regularity...... and its this horrifying regularity of time which always keeps us on our toes to synchronize with its speed as much as possible.....</span></span><br />

He has the most versatile and resilient body among all the living organisms. Undoubtedly his sensory organs are one of the best among all the living creatures, and top of all man has the most advanced brain among all the living things on this earth. Definitely this particular creation of almighty is a wonder of sorts. Even God himself must be very proud of creating man.....WHAT A CREATION....!!!</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But problem starts when we as a human start thinking that we are immortal and feel proud of our money and other materialistic assets. we just don't indulge in the human process of self-respect, rather we take pride by involving our self in the wily procedures that make us feel proud, arrogant and haughty. We start under estimating our brothers, sisters, colleagues, neighbors and in fact every second person around us.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We always hear and read that all men are born equal but hardly see in our daily lives.....On the other hand we can easily see that poor are exploited by rich and the weak are given a very shabby treatment by the powerful lot. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In fact the clash of egos has been going on since man was born on earth and started living in groups and history shows that the battle for supremacy were always fought between the groups. It must be noted that group battles are very common among all the animal species, does that mean we too are animals. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At times we may see that even animals have hearts and souls for their own species........ Where as our history of fights in the name of cast, color, region, religion etc is enough to prove that somehow we human lack into it..... SHAME ON US.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The world is changing at a very fast pace. Commercialisation and free market mechanism have created enormous wealth. And where wealth accumulates human certainly decay. The morality of the individuals in a materialistic society has been corrupted beyond compare.We are ourselves to be blamed for this catastrophe and only a serious introspection by us could save us.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We must not forget the ultimate truth that each and every one has to die one day or other, and <i>when <b>"six feet of land or a funeral pyre make all of us equal"</b> then </i>.........</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Why cannot we cut down our egos and become empathetic towards all those who interact with us...???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Why cannot we help our poor brothers and sisters so that they also live their life with dignity and comfort....???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If each one of us either be buried or cremated then why so much of hue n cry over the mortal issues and objects of the world....???</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

Bete.....whom do you love more mummy or Papa...???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bete....Your mummy loves you more or Papa....???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
heyyyyy...hold on, I am not asking it to you all....</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In fact these are the typical questions that has been always asked by our over-affectionate aunties when we were kid. These over-affectionate aunties never think that how can a child love one of his/her parent more than the other.....or how the love of one of his/her parent can be more or less than the other.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But when it comes to parental love, then mother's love is something which is always on the leading side, may be because fathers are very cool in showing their love and affection that they have for their kids.....but we all know that fathers are no way less when it comes to love their children.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You may agree that somehow or other mothers seem to be hogging the spotlight whenever its Mother's day. In fact its an open secret that we all spend days n weeks for planning a prefect Mother's day gift, whereas for Father's day we don't seem to put much effort into it....and being a father I can tell that even Dads don't mind this, perhaps they are too cool for this.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyways, today is Father's day.....and I am missing my Dad a lot...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I would like to thank my dad for all he did for me and want to say that <span style="color: blue;">"so what if you are not here with us physically, we always feel your presence around us....I will never forget the values n morals you taught me to live this life, which would not have begun without you......"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Happy Father's day to all of you..... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know its very painful for people like me whose fathers are no more here with us.....Big hug to all of you......</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<i style="font-size: small;"><u><span style="color: blue;">"A successful marriage means falling in love many times, </span></u></i><i style="font-size: small;"><u><span style="color: blue;">always with same person"</span></u></i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It seems like only couple of months back I had written this <a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/06/twelve-yrs-of-togetherness.html"><span style="color: red;"><b>post</b></span></a> here, but looking at the calender, I find that its one complete year now... This is how life goes, days after days, years after years, in short "<b><span style="color: red;"><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011/12/life-goes-on.html"><span style="color: red;">life goes on</span></a>"</span></b>....and no need to mention that like every one else, we also had our good times along with some really <b><a href="http://irfanurs.blogspot.in/2011_11_01_archive.html"><span style="color: red;">bad</span></a></b> time during this year.....At this very moment once again I would sincerely like to thank all of you for your moral n emotional support, it really helped me a lot to come out from that moment.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As we all know that marriage is the process by which people who love each other make their relation public, official and permanent...though in our case, we started loving each other only when our parents made this relation public and official, as it was purely an arrange marriage.... I wish it would have been other way... :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyways, coming to the point, marriage is joining of two people in a bond that last till death(<i>leaving those who cut short this bond by divorce due to their own reasons</i>), and over the course of this relationship that can last as many as seven or eight decades, a lot happens....personalities change, bodies age and romantic love waxes n wanes and at times conflicts between the partners does arises....In fact no marriage is free of conflict because its just not possible to find another human being whose every habits and preferences aligns perfectly with us, so it depends on the couple how they handle that conflict.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Actually the fundamental challenge in any relationship is figuring out how to negotiate with their partner's irritants in a way that does not effect their relation and keep the two of them connected. Moreover my personal experience of these many years has taught me that if people want to stay in a relationship then as an individual something needs to change and it starts from our self.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Few days back I was reading somewhere that "marriage offers people a substantial happiness boost"...and according to some research reports "strong, warm, fulfilling interpersonal relationship makes people happy".....</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now one may say that a lifelong bond with a friend or sibling can also make people happy, then why to marry with an strange just for the sake of happiness when that happiness can be felt without getting married.....well, in my view apart from living all those relations, leading a married life is also necessary because having spouse apart from momentary happiness also confers many other goods on us, like -- children, intimacy, domestic n financial support and above all companionship in our old age......</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, enough on that I think..... :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Allow me to leave here.....<br />
Its time for us to spend this moment together ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have a nice weekend,</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our life is a journey and during this entire journey one can't stop even for a while. This entire journey is not just a matter of failure or success..... In fact it begins with the birth and continues till one die... Does it mean that the aim of the life is to simply move on till our death.....No, it can't be....!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then what is the meaning of this entire journey...???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Actually when I think about it, I find that starting from childhood...Adolescence...youth and then getting old...all is set...and at any point of time if someone try to remain in any of these stages then its just not possible...absolutely not possible.....</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Now my idle mind is thinking that if every thing and every stage of our life is set by<br />
nature then how to make our life meaningful and valuable...??? Because simply living the whole span of life is in no way an achievement, In fact its a natural process and every living thing on this earth lives its span of life....So what we as a human should do to make this journey valuable...???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At times, for fulfilling our dreams and getting our ambitions achieved, we just keep on running behind the goal and while running blindly into this race, we just don't notice that when n how our VALUES...MORALS and IDEALS have started losing its breath.....</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, can there be an end of our dreams....our ambitions...???</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, I personally feel that its always necessary to have some control over our ambitions....Now one may argue that to succeed one should have ambitions and i do agree that one must be ambitious butttttttt my point is he/she should never be overambitious. <br />
<br />
Actually one must learn the technique to resist him/herself from entering into the blind race of life kn this materialistic age because our life is precious and its not at all to simply run behind goals blindly.... In fact during this entire journey there has to be some space for satisfaction, so that our VALUES....MORAL and IDEALS remain intact and at no stage of life they start feeling breathlessness......<br />
<span style="font-size: 16px; text-align: left;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="text-align: left;">So in my view the purpose of life(apart from different beliefs or religious explanations) is to complete this journey with integrity without damaging our Values, Morality and Ideals.</span><br />

While going through the newspaper I found it surprising and difficult to believe, that someone like Mr. Digvijay Singh is talking about active participation of youth in Indian politics by replacing older lot of politicians. After further going into the news it was clear that his statement came in a function where he was trying to establish his own son into politics. So in a way he was pleading in favour of his son and not for the entire youth of the country. However this is a separate debate because this post is not about dynastic politics rather its about the <i>"Youth vs Old in Indian politics"</i>. So for the moment his statement regarding active participation of youth into governance needs to be taken as face value.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you look at the current Lok Sabha its average age is 53yrs and this is a matter of concern because such leadership can hardly be expected to address the aspirations of a country which has got the largest youth population in the world.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Let me make it clear here that neither I am against these oldies nor I am questioning their administrative qualities and abilities, undoubtedly most of them are well experienced and highly qualified. In fact we should not forget that these people have the biggest thing to provide to the youngsters and that is their experience but what they lack is the desire to change attitude, where as our youth's biggest strength is their desire to change attitude.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now if there are only youth in politics then things are going to suffer from lack of experience and hence repeating same mistakes that had been made earlier..... On the other hand if there are only old people then we may have to face a "No Action" like situation where lot of ideas may dwell upon problems rather than taking action with full of energy and determination.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hence instead of arguing for youth or old, it has to be both...... The plus point in proper combination of both into governance can have two kinds of people working together.....i.e</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1 ) <b>YOUTH</b> : Full of energy and enthusiasm to take any action with full determination.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2 ) <b>OLD</b> : Having heaps of experience from past events.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Therefore for the upliftment of the nation, the old age people as well as youth should work together. They should co-operate and understand one another.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In fact its not only the Lok Sabha but we should have a right mix of young people in every department of the government organisations, because the old people can provide inputs and give feedback on how exactly the system works and the young can implement the same and take risks as they have age on their side.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moreover by having proper blend of both, at least a signal would be sent across the youth of this country to come forward and take steps in the right direction to lead the country.</div>
