Outdated!

 Welcome back.After 3 long years here I am again.

Just came across a blog.Author wrote:how each one of us become outdated over time!.how true.Your efforts,success and fame all just become non entity over time.Whole generation,values,priorities,approach everything changes..In and out.No exceptions.Makes me wonder do we take us really too seriously thinking that we are indespensible to Society?..

Just a thought.If we know our place in time and realise we r just dots in this timeline perhaps we take our life in right perspective..

Empty Nest and a thought on Ranu Mandal's daughter

Hi,

Longtime since I wrote.Both kids(ADULTS!)away and looks like I need to explore life in other dimensions.

Just heard the sensational Ranu Mandal and the rag to famous story in matter of few days!..She got 7 lakhs for "Teri..Meri..terimeri.."song.She was abandoned by her daughter 10 years ago, and left to beg in railways platforms..and as soon asmother's success story got out, daughter is all over her...makes me wonder..of course mother was too happy to accept daughter even after 10 years of abandonment!.Wow..mother's love but what about daughter's?..purely self serving,opportunistic and mind you she might as well abandon mother again if she stops earning..Does Love flow only one direction?

Every Rupee unspent is worth TWO saved

 Hi Samy and Chummy,

Lesson1:

My MBBS days .My father used to send me Rs 500 every month.300-350 Mess bill and 150 for whole month.We used to enjoy tea and Ayyangar bakery puffs in the evening!..But after15th money shortage used to bite me..my strategy was...

Used to go alone for tea and have Chota tea(1/2).No Puff after 15th and somedays used to be very hungry..Some time used to join friends who would pay for me! One Saturday I was very hungry and had no cash..friends were not around..neither could I have asked Dad because it took 7 to 8 days for bank transfer that time..I started looking for every single coin available in every corner of my room and shirt pockets. Could gather about 5 rupees and at last I could have tea that day...Still remember..how I felt..started respecting every single coin from that day!..

Was travelling from Delhi to Bangalore after some ECFMG related work.As it was busy season I had to take a ticket from a agent which was not in my name.The TT checked and fined me..Rs 1000..I had only Rs 300 in my pocket...I was in trouble. they could have got me out of train or arrested me for not paying fine..one fellow passenger just gave Rs 700 for me..He didi not know my name or address but he was from Bangalore...Realised what could happen if in critical times if you don't have even 300 rupees..


Samy,you were born in 1999 at KSA and Chummy was 2 months old(embryo inside AMMA!) .We returned to India in 2001..Thought we have saved enough for life and can have relaxed life after working hard for 3 years in KSA..Amma did not join for work as Samy was 1 year old and we didnt have a job either...Did not know where to join for work,,To start practice or join any Institute...so difficult to get a job..it took about 4 to 5 months..Meantime I had to take bank deposits one by one and many saving were getting spent...tchummydashy2001@gmail.comhat was a difficult time..of course things changed once I joined Manipal in 2003..Lesson was,never take things for granted..I have this much salary,I have savings,I am a doctor..if you don't keep earning even 20 lakh money is not enough !..
Suddenly if health goes down or you loose a job or you resign...things change overnight!!..Pressure comes from all side..

So girls...if you can save Rs 5 by walking instead of city bus please do.You earned Rs 10..If you can save Rs 25 by taking city bus instead of auto ..please do.You earned Rs 50!.But in emergency or if no other option don't hesitate spend as much needed..You don't have to suffer or inconvenience your self.Be smart.Plan.Execute.

Saving habit is a very critical Life skill.Today Rs 1,tomorrow Rs 10...one day Rs 1,00,000..It is just adding zeros..But,money is not everything.But don't spend just because your friend or classmates do or for the feeling what will others say.Be confident of yourself.No one can make you feel inferior as you are trying to be self reliant.If some one does then  it is simply not worth listening to such fools.Mind you...when you are in trouble it is yours alone...Each one has their own..Very few will have time for you..

Hope the point is clear...Develop Life skill 1:Save most of what you  earn but spend what is essential..

With love
Anna

Welcome friends MMC82

Have a great day..

Bye for now..

I have become Rich!.Spent Rs 32 today..thats by ruthless Mr Rangarajan Committee standard!!

Hi,

Mr Rangarajan Committee decided who is poor in India in 2014.. just spend Rs 32 in rural area or Rs 47 in urban area..you will be rich...wow!.. the justifications,economic reasonings,hollow sympathy with poor of India..simply put...shameless and irresponsible.

Its funny... look at how large hearted and liberal Mr Rangarajan Committee was  when it came to deciding Gas price for Amba..i...he took into account  Gas prices in USA,Japan(costliest),Europe and Gulf countries...for the gas produced in our country owned gas fields by contractor Reila..ce..its like comparing price of apartment by comparing sq feet price at a town in India to New York..absolute nonsense,illogical and designed only to help big people/corporates..poor people of India did not bother him then..

It all makes sense Mr Rangarajan..why you are heading Economic Advisory Council and why he is likely to continue..Mr Average Indian(poor/middle class) you have no hope.. You don't count ..you just vote and suffer..Jai Hind!

Interesting story..cheating death

Hi,

Read an interesting story in newspaper..it is about a gardener trying to cheat death...

One fine day the Gardener while working in his garden, realises Death is sitting in the bench next to him to take him to heaven/hell.Gardener runs to the King and begs him for a horse which runs very fast so that he could get away from Mr Death.King grants the same and Gardener rushes towards Kashi..Mr Death's assistant asks him why did he let him go so easily...Mr Death looks disappointed and sighs...you know.. I just want to tell him that I am going to meet him at Kashi while riding on a fast horse...but well fate has its way!.
I understand Death is a very sensitive and scary subject but inevitable to all of us living beings..but still we keep running,searching,researching...to reach eternity it seems.

Have a nice day.

Children of lesser God..rape n murder of innocent girls in UP and where are the protests?

Horrific !.2 girls aged 12 and 14 brutally raped and then hanged in UP..Look at our  response..

1.  Akhilesh Yadav, Chief Minister,UP: Responded to a journalist....you are safe right? why are you
    bothered about this rape?
2. IG,Police,UP: 10 rapes take place in UP every day..! (and still the top cop still at helm of affairs)

3.Our youth/activists: Silent.. no protest..no slogans...every one is busy...who has the time for 2 innocent Dalit girls from a village in UP?

TV channels will forget the incident in 2 days..


Shameless system..This is why we need Judicial,admin and Police reforms..Supreme Court should take suo motto action and take Akhilesh  and his Govt accountable for their dereliction of duty..

My heart goes out to innocent,helpless parents of victims...is Modi listening?
