Some Sentimental Things…

There are some sentimental things which some follow some won’t…

• Cutting nails inside our house will lead to quarrel between the family members.
• Lending money/things after 6pm won’t improve family’s growth.
• During Eclipse time, pregnant ladies are told to be much careful as a small scratch by nail on their skin will lead to defect in child’s appearance.
• If girls won’t wash their hands immediately after eating, then their marriages will delay.
• If a coconut which is kept for pooja (prayer) is not good, then it indicates some bad news for the family.
• If a cat crosses in front of us, while we are going for some important work, then it is said that there will be some obstacles.
• If a lamp lit in the pooja room, shuts down itself, then it’s not good for the family head.

It’s not like am following everything… I just listed some things that I have heard and not meant to hurt anyone…. Am sure, there is more like this… Enjoy….

Water Stagnant & Drainage Issues…

Drainage system plays a very vital role in cities as there are mostly buildings… Nowadays Apartments are the one we often see.

It has the advantage of occupying many families within a limited space. Also, the fun in apartment life has no boundary that too as kids. Families will celebrate all festivals together whatever it may be. Distribute food items, with love. This creates a very nice bond between them. Also, it is safe to be in apartment. If in case of emergency, many neighbours will be there to help us.

In addition to this, we have some disadvantages too. If families have babies, then that’s all. Babies won’t sleep due to the noise created by kids while playing. These create lots of problems. Also, maintenance plays a very important role in Apartment life. Every family has to contribute in maintaining cleanliness which is a major issue. Also, if drainage system is not well in Apartments, then that’s it. We have to dispose the drainage water frequently..

If cities don’t have proper drainage facilities then it results in water stagnant which causes many diseases… That too in rainy season, it is worst. Below were the snaps that I took near our apartment.

 I didn’t mean to hurt anyone. I also didn’t say that all Apartments and Cities are like this. Just sharing my thoughts….

White Spider...

I just clicked some snaps of a white spider which i saw in our rest room door. Please bear with this as am not an expert in clicking... just a learner...

My True Love…

You and I

Were alone

Holding me together

You were so close to me

I can feel your breathe and warm

There’s no one to mind our presence

I can see my true love right in front of me

What a wonderful feel, as Iam the world’s happiest person

What a startle, all my wishes are coming true

How come my wishes coming true always

Had a doubt, wait a minute

Where else will come true

Opened my eyes, got it

Always in

Dreams

Merry Christmas…

Christmas… As iam Hindu, I used to go to my friends house to celebrate Christmas with their family in school days. One of my friends, even teached me a prayer song which I sang in their house with them… I felt very happy…

Jesus Christ… Watched him in many movies and read about his sacrifice for the sake of mankind… Felt tears for his pain…

For me, “God” is one, whom we all used to call and pray in different names as per our wish…

During college life, watched many of our buddies decorating wonderful Jesus Cribs in their rooms… We really enjoyed it… We have so many festivals but this one is very great celebs for you all… We too enjoy this by watching so many programmes and having sweets and cakes…

Guys… Wish you all a very Happy Christmas…

P.S.  If I hurt anyone’s feeling pls forgive me as I don’t know in depth about Christmas…
