Feel Alive

Today I'm seeing my self as one who has witnessed one of the illegal criminal act and done nothing to stop or protest it. Bhabhi who stays on the ground floor was 4/5 months pregnant. This was the 6th time she was pregnant and she already has 2 sweet girls.  She had to go for sex determination of baby in her womb.  Since it was Pitrapaksha till 14 January i.e. Uttarayan, normally people don't start anything new or do anything important.  Now she went for sex determination on 21st January, hoping it would be boy and she will be relieved from more pregnancies.  I remember the conversation when she told me this. I told her, who cares about all this nowadays. And if it's boy, who knows he will take care of you or not. She said, it's not we who want a boy, but in-laws have a wish. I felt real pity for her that time. I couldn't imagine what she would be going through and what it would have been to abort already 3 unborn girl child.  When I asked her

As we bid goodbye to 2013 and welcome our new life guarded secretly and safely with 2014 , I wanted it to be fun way. Well why not !!! It had been a whole lot of funny year for me. We had a Theme setting at Office today where we had to come up with some sort of Skit / Play Act.  Though not an area of expertise for me, still I tried with better Team, got it proof - read from internal Experts. It was fun, mainly based on recent political developments of India. Though Politics is no less of humor in any Country, still it needed some effort to make it humorous when we talked about it. We practiced thrice. Few friends are meeting tonight on New Year's Eve to celebrate arrival of New Year and bid grand Good Bye to Current Year.  Though I wonder at times, what do we celebrate? Seeing ourselves aging with one more year gone and trying to be happy than be sad or welcoming new opportunity that coming year might hold. Probably the later one. Celebration to hide
