Slumdog milloniare

Heard,read and watched this movie finally,liked it .But a big question that has come to my is "Is that the real India that's shown there?"Of course ,not .I live in Delhi and I swear you can see drastic change here in the last 2-3 years.I mean ,you just go out and see,low floor buses with LED displays,A/C public transport,Metro the lifeline fo Delhi which is spread all over and has made your ride so easy and quick,multistorey parkings,Malls--which brand do you want,just ask, fly overs all over-- 31 new added in last two years.What else do you want.Even I have stayed in US for nearly 2 years.I dont find Delhi lacking anywhere .Rather Im happy that my daughter is growing up here ,eating fresh fruits,veggis and milk with no preservatives and harmones added on and her big problem of constipation has totally disappeared .As far as cleaniness is concerned,the area in which I live is very clean.Then is that the true India thats shown there .But what I find that Indians themselves are responsible for this kind of stuff.For instance,my brother in law is in US for last 6-7 years now and I had observed him criticising our country whenever there was a get together of his friends,making fun of system,society and culture.I never approve this kind of approach.
I think we Indians need to change our thinking drastically and if you doubt,come and see Delhi.

A Visit To Mughal Gardens(President's House Garden)

So ,this weekend was great.Saturday after coming from my yoga class I started turning pages of the newspaper and found that mughal gardens are opened up for public for 15 days.These gardens are very well maintained gardens having more than100 varities of roses and various herbs and bonsai.Immediately made up my mind to take vanya there .My ultimate aim is always her enjoyment.So started preparing for it ,thought about next day's menu to be taken for lunch and prepared rest ofthe things ...mats,bedsheet ,plates,glasses etc.Asked my dear friend also,she also agreed to go with us with her husband and son who is vanya's very good friend.So ,sunday morning was very hectic ,preparing poori,chana ,subji and rice as my friend was getting chicken and noodles.I had thought of preparing halwa also after a long time as vanya and bobby like it but couldnot because someone else also likes it very much due to which I have completely stopped preparing those things.Mummy prepares sll those things .........getting back to trip again,we started around 11 am and in half an hour we were there ,stayed there for 2 hours and then went to India gate ,played cricket there and then had food.Good long full day trip of nine people.I have made it a point that the vacuum that I feel in my life should not come in my daughter's life .I also try my level best to fill up that gap carefully that's why I called my friends family also to go with us.Managing life at times is difficult than solving a sudoko.................u really have to do so many calculations but what I know is that at the end of day we all came happy and tired.

Daughter's dance

What a day today?My little one has participated in her school's annual function (oops!but she calls it animal function) but its a new experience for all of us .She has participated in a dance and she has to dance with her partner there but experiments go at home also.She randomly tells any of us to be her partner ,explaining all steps that you have to do with her .But the problem is height difference ,so we have to bend down and come to her level and dance .My God ,today even I had to dance with her for more than an hour and now my knees are paining like anything.Is it that Im getting old?A big NO to that please.I am very particular about diet,exercise and yoga.Then whats this?Whatever ,whether I'm able to fold my legs or not,whether I'm able to walk or not but Im really exicted.My daughter has once again told me to dance at my fullest as I used to do in my school or college days.
Is that a mother - daughter relationship?There are many things that I understand and many things that she understands,we really dontneed any words to understand each other.Thanks to a person in my life who has inspired me to be very good mother.................God Bless him.

Grandparents................

Thought of writing about my parents,who are garndparents now of my almost 6 years old daughter.Oh my God,I really can't believe........ can such transition comes in you when you become a GRAND PARENT..........I mean a complete phase transition.My dad was very strict with me when I was young.I still remember a proper timetable to be followed for school,studies and food along with playtime.A big NO to chocalates,chewing gums etc. ,I think because of that my teeth are in good shape even today but I really find him very different with my daughter.Extra love and care she is getting from my mom and dad ,they love her like anything .I was surprised when I saw her eating chewing gum one day and who got that for her ,her dear grandpa,as promised.They simply try to fulfill all her wishes and i feel as if now I stand nowhere in this house.But I enjoy that.My daughter is getting ampleof love,May God bless her.We really dont need anything now........................Shall I be the same when I will become Grandparent?

life......is that so easy

Back again ,couldnot write for long time as my daughter had been very sick.I had thought to live life at fullest right on 1 jan but again things never go the way you want but this is life ,i have learnt this very well.On 11 jan,when doc's had told me that vanya might not be saved ,i was in the state of shock but now i never surrender without giving a tough fight and this time it was my daughter,how could i take it...................Standing day and night with her for six days ,running to every possible doctor and by the grace of god and with love of my parents who are no less that god to me ,my daughter is fine now ,smiling,jumping once again.Again life seems easy ,wow....
I have forgotten all my sleepless night but One thing i would like to mention here is that the word FEAR has almost gone out of my mind may be because i have been through a very crux situation earlier and i have now started believing that things that r bound to happen ,do happen
Today got a supportive mail from an old friend also,liked it .His saying about a ray of hope was wonderful....................well wishes of such friends have really helped me and made me very strong .
Oh,ya!forgot to mention,started reading Ruskin Bond stories ,wonderful.
Just now finished with chetan bhagat's novel also,liked his way of writing things casually though i find Ruskin more deep in expression of emotions.
