Dickens said in 'The tale of two cities' that it was the best of the times and it was the worst of times and lemme rephrase taking a cue from it that it is a spring of hope after a winter of despair. Aptly applicable for the current slowdown in almost everything. But there is a silver lining at least for those who have a wee bit of savings. Earlier how much did you pine to learn guitar or sitar? Now is the time for it even if you are idle technically speaking. Did you get less time for your family earlier due to hectic work schedule? Know more of the finer nuances in your family and child(if applicable)and let them(wherever applicable) know that affection can be showered in other ways too besides doling pocket money(Disclaimer: Do that if they desire so and conditions apply):). A friendly hug can do wonders which money possibly cannot redeem either. Enjoy gardening if you love nature and see the delight of pantheism. Do window shopping in malls without regret that you could not buy something because at EOD none can buy everything and the regret can still remain. Move beyond the lux quotient of megapolises and take a long ride to the countryside by eco-friendly neighborhood bicycle. Drop nearby a dhaba and have a sumptuous lunch. Club Mahindra resorts might pale into insignificance in comparison. When was the last time you saw with leisure lush green pastoral 'shashyashyamala' Matrubhumi? 'Janni Janmbhumisch Swargadapi Gariyasi'. Ergo, take a bit of time off your hectic schedule and listen to your home town that beckons you for a while at least. I wanna to hum a song from 'Virasat' that says 'Main barson bad lauta to jana yeh gaon geet hai sadiyon purana'...
Meet old pals 'balsakhas' and feel the delight that Krishna used to feel whenever he met Sudama. Verily, there are many Sudamas including me waiting for you to come and to get and to give a friendly hug after a long, long time. St Joseph ke dost Kameshwar Yadav, Pankaj Saran, LFS ke Rakesh,Suraj, Anjani aur bahut dost hain jinse milne ka man karta hai. Uski abhi bhi ummeed hai.After a long, long time.Sabse jyade to ek special hai naam nahin le pa raha hoon jisse milne ka man hai aur kahne ka man hia'Tu hamar hau'. Prem ka shikhar hi Ishwar hai shayad. Kya karen? Bachpan ke din mat bhula do puri tarah se doston. Bahut kuch hai likhne ko kya karoon simple pleasures of life bhi hain enjoy karne kabhi-2...
