Purely Innocent

Every year in month of August we visit to our temple. For some reason this year I was not prepared. Just on the day we had to visit I just grabbed my purse and drove with kids. With immense devotion and total contentment, I was about to leave the place, My daughter asked me if she could get some money to put for offerings in the temple. Me being a CARD person and in that kind of hurry, dint have anything more than  some pennies.

My recent visit to India had left tons of coins in  my purse. My kids just took all of them out and put it in the offerings box. I tried to stop them saying "These are Indian coins, we cannot put them here!". Promptly I got a reply, "Why not! This is Indian god so Indian coins should work."

I was zapped. I could have gone beyond any measures to explain why, how and so on. But the honest, pure and simple point of view stopped me then and there!

Life is a piece of cake when seen from a honest and pure mind!

A Father!!


Men are more open hearted in accepting new people and new changes in life.

I say this not based on any statistics or research. This is totally my opinion based on my experience and my understanding about relations and life as whole.

Mother's instinct, motherly love ; most of the books , most of the talks are about how selfless, sacrificing and dedicated Mother's love is. There are tons of matter spread everywhere about this sacred bond of 'mother and child'.

9 months of togetherness, five or more months of movements, kicks, twirls and punches make us welcome motherhood with very slight delay and practically no hesitation. Women/Moms literally take nine months to get there where Men/father arrive in a flash of a moment. Given a chance, how many women in this world would be able to relate to a newborn ( not given birth by them physically) just the way a man does when he becomes a father?

This probably is all about how women are and how men aren't.
