I miss you...

There are loads of cards on display when you go to the " I miss you" section of the greeting card shop. There are different types of e-cards which help you express your "missing" feeling err... I mean " I miss you" feeling. You might have sent these to your best friends during your school time after she changed the school because here papa got a transfer to another city. You must have spent money and given these to your BF/GF durign your teenage times etc. How much you might have actually felt, how much you actually meant can never be equal to what a mother feels when she is separated from her child, may be just for a few hours.

These words hit hard on me when I call back home to check on my daughter and hear her babble dadddaaa mammaaa to my mom-in-law. She does not say that she misses me, nor would she understand my world of words. But she cuddles next to me all night waking up umpteen times to check if I am next to her. I hug her and shower kisses on her as soon as I reach home. Its just that no card or present can replace your actual presence.

God's love... its so wonderful

I was humming this song of course in my mind as I sat seeing the carved eyebrows of the dentist who was peeking into my crowded museum-piece like mouth. How every part of our body, especially our face is designed.

God is a very good designer. Imagine what it would be like if our teeth were to be as long as our fingers and vice-verse?! This, less than 1cm teeth gives so much pain in the first place. If each of my tooth were as long as my fingers then the Doc would have taken more than 1hr to just excavate it !!! and 2 hrs to fill it and imagine the amount of pain... hmph. Ahh...so hard to even think of that. Also, what would the devices look like, the mirror, the tongs, forceps etc? What would a root-canal treatment do to you? And not to forget, the costs of all these treatments.

Thanking God, now I gargle, brush etc ... and take good care of God-given oh-so beautiful teeth :-D [do u see them?!]. Aren't they now shining like Raju's मोतियों जैसे दांत !!

No-change Saar…

There is an ad on the TV, forward-preface can’t remember, but it shows the lady at the cash counter giving back chocolate to a ‘not-so’ good looking customer instead of rendering change and …

But this trend is oh-so fast picking up that you better shop for a round-off value else you end up getting unwanted chocolate at the grocery shop, dried and all-dead coriander at the hopcoms and so on. What kind of a gimmick is this?

I remember teachers rounding off our marks so that we might look a little cleaner when showing our test papers to our mothers and mothers further rounding off the % to look cleaner in front of the neighbors. But now all the shops, toll-gates and anywhere where you spend money round-off to the nearest available not so useful item. So here I heard my hubby’s cousin making a big fight at the small-town’s super market. He returned back the chocolate and told the counter lady to “keep-the-change”!!! What would you want to do ?
