Everything is artificial..
enigma | General | 25 December 2005, 12:45pm
I know that people are artificial when it comes to expressions, feelings, jestures wagera..but one thing that has come to light recently and which i have observed is that people do things just to get praise and recognition and not out of desire to do something..you may think there she goes again...its understood if someone does something to get a promotion or for personal development but for such a selfless pure act of kindness also do we need to be artificial?
Its a fact guys..people in big positions just do charity for the heck of it. They go to the orphanage and just dump the stuff for distribution and dont even distribute it themselves nor hold the childs hand or pat them on their shoulders. yaar when u cant feel for something no point in doing it. They would be sitting at a distance and would just make sure that the stuff is distributed..but was just thinking be it without any feelings still they are buying stuff for the kids...be it whatever.
Duniya he aise hai, kya kar sakte hain bolo....................................................................
Are you doing the right thing is the question we should ask ourself rather than pondering about how people are. But this was my observation in the recent weeks. I am going to spend some time with the kids today
Sorry to bore you folks again and again...becoz i felt that what was the point in doing something where ur soul is not involved especially for someone who does not have anyone smiling back at him or patting him on his back or holding his hand. They do not require the stuff yaar what they want is our smile and they want us to be their gaurdian angel........

Keep The Faith

There is always darkness in the heart and not always what we wish for can we get. Sometimes it prevents us from living as we wish. We can't imagine other people's pain It's hard for us to share it but today i thought the pain i was experiencing due to ill health was very less compared to what someone very dear to me was undergoing.
Life is what we make out of it. It is because of such nice people in the world it adds to the meaning of living your life. Just becoz some tell you that they have changed their feelings with the passage of time its not the end of the world..instead we should take it as a learning point. The world has nice people its just that we need to meet them.
End of the day what matters is we have people with us who care for us and make us happy. Empathy still rules i guess..being there for a person makes so much of difference.
Ok i know you guys would think okay again she is going on and on..i will sign off but all of you just "KEEP THE FAITH" the world is indeed beautiful...
Cheers

crackpot

Every human has worth!!!! everyone on this earth is born to contribute in his/her own way. I hear a lot about the term underperformer when i am at work..that really puts me off. Contribution of each individual is important. I was just thinking and remembered this story
"An elderly Chinese woman had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which she carried across her neck. One of the pots had a crack in it while the other pot was perfect and always delivered a full portion of water. At the end of the long walk from the stream to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full. For a full two years this went on daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water.
Of course, the perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection, and miserable that it could only do half of what it had been made to do.
After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the woman one day by the stream.
"I am ashamed of myself, because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house."
The old woman smiled, "Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot's side? That's because I have always known about your flaw, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path, and every day while we walk back, you water them.
"For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, there would not be this beauty to grace the house."
Each of us has our own unique flaw. But it's the cracks and flaws we each have that make our lives together so very interesting and rewarding. You've just got to take each person for what they are and look for the good in them".
So this story is for all my crackpot buddies who feel low and down..come on cheer up. Everyone has the potential but depends on various parameters to emerge on top.
So never never feel let down,,you never know how important you might be.

The day started with me being woken up by someone who is very dear to me..otherwise would have continued sleeping
I was excited as i was going to meet the kids today..picked up the stuff for them along with the goodies and reached the place..
Thought for a while where are the funds going..dusty environment, no drinking water,no proper hygiene, no footwear..kids just playing on the ground barefooted. They all gathered near the car thinking who had come..i went in an auto with the stuff loaded in the car..
I was taken into a big room where the kids would come to have their meals for the afternoon..i went inside..off loaded the stuff and waited for them.
At around 12:45 some 50 kids came jumping around and looking at the packets..one questioned as to what i had bought for them.
Their incharge made them sit down in a row..started the distribution..many of them did a namaste to me..i folded my hands and blessed them.
I asked one kid to distribute the goodies to everyone..some were like should we take the stuff for our friends..i did not know the exact count so would have to buy stuff for some children who had gone to attend college.
Everyone were holding their towel, pillow etc and wanting to rip apart the packet as to what else could there be..
Hmmmm i did not feel like coming back..promised them i would make a visit soon..one small kid held my little finger and asked me when was i coming next..
Before i get senti again i want to thank a few people who have been with me throughtout this experience and even if they have been far far away have been so close to enjoy the moment with me.
As 'Mass' said there has to be a beginning and someone would take it from there..
A smile on the kids key faces made my day boss..

I have got back to my daily routine again. I had a promise to keep to the kids and here i am..yesterday morning went and bought some stuff for the orphanage and the school. I am doing this little thingy for them tomm..want to see a smile on their faces.
But was thinking ke is this like going to solve their problems to any extent whatsoever. Dont know what to do to make their existence happy and worthwhile.
Folks dont think i have gone bonkers and thinking too much and i need to get a hold on myself. I am happy but meri wat lagi hue hai..
Will tell u all what happens tomm..till then cheers
