Balloon

"Madam, Please buy me a balloon. The same beggar kid of the previous post asked me.

Should I repeatedly give him money or asked him to stop begging?

Money for junk food?

"Madam, Please give me Rs.5/- so that I can eat 'Kurkure'."  A beggar kid asked me.

Should I give me Rs. 5/- for eating junk food or no?

GF's name on hand!

I heard this interesting joke on fm radio.

Once a teenager pierced his hand with a sharp knife and wrote his girlfriend's name. After that he started  crying.
One of his friend asked, "What happened?"
With great difficulty he could only reply, "S........Spelling mistake!!!"

Will he write his GF's name on his other hand? ;)

LOUDSPEAKER

In the morning, loud noise coming from a distance woke me up earlier as a result I had an acute headache. All day I couldn't take a nap just because of the noise from the distant loudspeaker. Although they were playing nice songs but I couldn't enjoy them because they were disturbing me and I couldn't concentrate on my work. At night I couldn't sleep because of the irritating loud noise as I need calm and peaceful place. I closed all the doors and windows of my house and drew curtains thinking that it might help me as the cloth absorbed noise. But there was no change. To pass time I updated my facebook status as

Man's worst invention is 'LOUDSPEAKER'!

Musical instrument?

Hi Readers.
I am back after a quick break from blogging. Sorry, I was busy to even write about it. All those same problems in business and life made me busy, very busy. Anyways I am back and I will try to write regularly in this space.

I and the kid were watching this old classic movie 'Naseeb' starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha, Hema Malini and Reena Roy. As soon as this song begun, the kid asked me "What is the name of this musical instrument that Reena Roy (female actress) is playing in this song?"
I do not know the answer.

Dear Reader, do you know the answer?

Life in a cage?


I drank water from the pot. I didn’t like it as it was warmer because of hot climate outside. Scorching heat made me low. Chirping of birds diverted my attention and I looked towards the sky where I saw three birds exactly like me flying freely. It was only me who was caged and couldn’t fly. The other birds were so happy and lucky and I so unhappy and unlucky!

Suddenly a shikra, a bird of prey came from nowhere and sat on my cage to catch me but couldn’t harm me because of the iron bars between us. It flew away and caught the little one while the other two birds could only scream.

Should I be happy or sad as I live in a cage?

Lap of neem tree!


A peepal sapling has grown in the lap of a large neem tree.

In your opinion, peepal should be transplanted in the field or it should be allowed to grow naturally in the lap of neem tree?

Plants in bottles


One of the corner of my house looks like this. These three bottles contain plants in water and something colourful to beautify them.

What are placed at the bottom of all these bottles to beautify them?

2007


In December, 2006 when I picked out a card from tarot deck was ‘The Hanged Man’ the twelfth card of Major Arcana which shows a man hanging upside down from one foot. He was suspended from a tree. It means transformation, turning around and seeing all the things in new light. A total reversal in life was ahead!
In 2007,
  1. I left my job to learn taxation.
  2. Due to some unavoidable reasons I joined my family business.
  3. For the first time I became owner of a property.
  4. For the first time I fell in love.
  5. I enjoyed my first date.
  6. For the first time I attended a high party.
  7. I learnt share business which I always wanted to.
  8. I met my mentor, guide and best friend.
  9. I bought my first laptop.
Out of these three are lies. ;)

Which year will you consider as turning point of your life?

Wrong parking


On morning walk I saw a new white colored car decorated with vibrant plastic ribbons and a swastik (auspicious sign made by red paste on new belongings) was made on its bonnet. Wow! A brand new car!! Nice Car!!! But what it this white paper on the front glass on driver’s seat side???? A few more steps and now I could read it.
WRONG PARKING. TYRES WILL BE DEFLATED.

What do you think security guards should spare brand new cars or no relaxation for anyone?

Soothing whistle!


I was walking on the side path of a mall and heard soothing whistle. I was too absorbed in my thoughts and calculations that I didn’t bother who it could be. I walked a few more paces and this time whistle started and continued for a long time. Who could whistle breathlessly for such a long time? I turned my head towards the sound. Oh! It was a caged bird!

Knowing this, should I be disappointed or happy?

Organic Spinach


“Do not throw away the four removable plastic containers. Give it to me. You can throw away the outer cover that was used to hold them as it breaks in two pieces and can’t be utilised anymore as a dry fruit keeping tray.” I said and took the four little plastic containers, filled them with soil mixed with decomposed manure and put the spinach seeds in them. I watered them regularly and organic spinach grew ready to be cut.

To beat the inflation prices and to get the vegetables grown without fertilizers and insecticides do you think the only option left is to grow them in what ever available containers/ land or there is any other option also?

Jakhoo Temple


“Look! Look!! Now we can see Lord Hanuman clearly.” A middle aged woman told her son.
“Yes.” Her son replied with his eyes fixed on it.
“It is Jakhoo Temple. There are monkeys every where.”
I overheard this conversation while travelling to Shimla with them in toy train. It was my first time journey by train to this city. Earlier I had visited this city a number of times by car and followed the same route as the path of train and road were side by side but never noticed the idol of Lord Hanuman.

If we travel alone by car our knowledge is somewhat confined for the surroundings whereas if we travel in public transport with lots of people then we come to know about lots of things which otherwise went unnoticed. What do you think?

Pic : It is taken from the toy train showing beautiful view of  Shimla city and Lord Hanuman (orange color idol) at the top right corner of it.

Home Science


One of my batch mates was not interested in doing B.Sc.(Home Science) but was left with no other option except it as she couldn’t get admission anywhere else. Surprisingly she couldn’t develop liking for this subject and most of the time it gave me the feeling that she was doing it unhappily. Recently I came to know that she was a School Lecturer in Home Science.
Whereas I was keenly interested in doing B.Sc. (Home Science) and I didn’t apply for any other course because I wanted to do this only. I made a good career in this field but due to some unavoidable reasons I left this field and entered our family business. 

One who is keenly interested in a particular field has to leave it whereas the one who is not interested in a particular field is continuing career in that particular field. Why?

BURFI!


After watching interesting promos of movie BURFI! I wanted to watch the ‘first day first show’ of this movie. Unfortunately I had to attend an unexpected business meeting on that time. For the past ten days I was busy with business attending meetings and more meetings. I was unable to watch it even though a theatre at walk able distance from my house is showing seven shows per day.

Am I lucky that I am so busy in my professional life that I have no time to watch even an Oscar nominated movie from India or am I unlucky that I can’t find time to watch such a good movie?

Photoshop


While surfing old pics in my computer I found this pic which I clicked some time before in hills. It is a temple under construction.

Do you think by using photoshop I can remove/ erase the electric wire spoiling the beauty in this pic or no?

Conquering mind


“When we try to concentrate our mind to a picture then our mind is thinking about that object. No doubt, with practice we can reduce the size of that object to a point but still then our mind is thinking about that point. If that point remains in our mind that means we can’t make our mind ‘Thoughtless’.” Some years back a person asked me. “What do you think can our mind be thoughtless?”

Poster Competition Judge


“After visiting all of our clinics in Gurgaon and Manesar in which all the posters were displayed made by our teams, which one you liked the most?” The owner of Ross Clinics, a chain of multi-facility health clinics asked me.
I pointed towards this poster and said. “I liked this the most.”
“Any specific reason, Ms. Judge?”
“All the posters are pretty nice. But as a judge I have to choose one and only ONE. Right?”
“Absolutely!”
“I liked this poster very much as in it a map is drawn to show all the branches of Ross Clinics as well as there full address is also written. And that will be quiet easier for the clients to find and locate the branch of Ross Clinics nearest to them in Gurgaon and Manesar.”
“hmmm…”
“I will also suggest you to ask Rossmates to make the replica of this poster and display it in all the other clinics. Keep adding more branches to it as and when you open the next.”

Dear readers do you like my decision or no?

Interesting persons


Previous post continued ….

In jam there were two persons whom I found interesting as they were enjoying the situation by keeping themselves busy even in this gandevala jam whereas the rest where irritated with the 'No movement' of vehicles. One was a middle aged lady who was solving sudoku puzzles in a book. And other was a young guy who was clicking the photos of traffic jam from every angle either to send it to his boss as he could not reach on time or uploading it on facebook to share with friends to receive their humorous comments.

What else one can go to enjoy this type of situation?

Irritating traffic jam


From the past four and a half hours my car was in the traffic jam with the result my car had only covered two hundred meters on NH No. 8 which is famous or rather I must said notorious for its kilometres long traffic jams, bahoot he gande vale jams. To divert my mind from the irritating jam I watched green fields of bajara, herd of cows, birds of different sizes and shapes, white butterflies moving here and there, not knowing where and flying clouds in blue sky. Luckily after 35 minutes car moved further and stopped near a shop. Many people who were along with me in that traffic jam got down from cars and bought mineral water, cold drinks and chips from there to quench their thirst and hunger. Seeing the rush, I analysed that by the evening that shop owner would have the sufficient money to open the McDonalds in that place. I had the sufficient water and meal for two days with me so I won’t be contributing in this noble cause.

What one can do when caught in this type of traffic jam; write a blog post like this? ;)

POWER PUMP


“I can’t understand whether the front tyre of my car is punctured or the pressure of air is low in it?” I confusedly utter these words.
“It is not punctured only air pressure is less.”  The kid said after his careful examination. “Wait a minute.”
He ran inside the house and brought a bicycle pump. “My parents gifted me a racing cycle and this air pump on my b’day. I will correct the pressure of air in your car tyre with this pump.”
“This will not work. It is for cycle not for car.” I said.
“It is power pump not an ordinary pump.”
He ignored me, uncapped the nozzle of car tyre and tried to do what he wanted to.
Disappointedly he said “I am unable to adjust the nozzle with the valve of pump with the result there is leakage while filling air.”
“I told you that you couldn’t fill the air with this ordinary pump.”
“This is not an ordinary pump. It is power pump. POWER PUMP!”

How can I convince him that even with POWER PUMP one cannot correct the air pressure in the car tyre?

Right to Information!


“Do you know how to fill a postal order?” Ms. ‘F’ asked.
“Yes. I do.” I said and helped her in filling that form.
“Actually I am filling an application under Right to Information Act (RTI) for the first time and postal order is to be sent with it.”
“What do you wish to know?” I curiously asked.
“Salary of my husband! I am fighting with him in the court!!”

Do you think it is the use or misuse of Right to Information Act?

Shares of Infosys


“Is share market is down today?” I asked Mr. ‘U’ who was watching a business news channel.
“No. It is up, only a few points.” Mr. ‘U’ said. “Infosys is Rs. 75.26 up right now as the decision of a case comes in their favour.”
“I sold all my Infosys shares on the last working day of share market making a small profit.”
“If you have hold the shares for just one more working day then you would have made good profit from them.”

Should I be happy as I made a small profit or should I be sad for not holding the shares for one more working day?

Height of saving!


I placed some biscuits on the newspaper in front of a street dog. He didn’t it. I waited and watched from a distance. A young man came near the dog, let the biscuits fall on the ground by pulling the newspaper from one side. To my surprise he folded the newspaper, put it in his pocket and went away.

Has any reader seen any person doing more saving than this one? ;)

How much it costs?


An elderly man boosted about his financial prowess. “I have four flats in this society, six flats in that society and…….” I calmly listened to him. “I have 500sq yards of plot in Gurgaon. Do you have any idea how much it costs?” He inquired me or to check whether I am listening or not?
I was silent.
He repeated again a bit louder. “Do you have any idea how much it costs?”
Lazily I said, “It depends upon where it is situated.” 
Instead of understanding the deeper meaning of what I meant, he uttered. “It is situated in the city of heart.”
I controlled my laugh, the most difficult task to do on this Earth.
This is 475th post. :D

You n situations

I read these lines somewhere on net.


Difficult and sorrowful situations and experiences come to all in life. In the process of experiencing them, some people become bitter, some better, some weaker, some stronger. 
What YOU become depends on YOU, not on the situation. 


What are your views on this?

Back ache

"I am utterly disappointed to see your blog as you have written only a few posts in the past month while I was away on vacation." Mrs. 'G' said.
"I am having severe back ache. The doctor advise me to slash my reading as well as writing hours. I haven't read my blogger friend's blog from a very long time just because of the same reason." I replied..

What can I do so that I can read and write like before?

100 rupee currency note


I opened the pocket of my purse to give change to a shopkeeper. I picked out one hundred rupee note and was bit surprised to see it. Who gave it to me? I couldn’t remember. I put the note back in my pocket and gave another note to the shopkeeper.

Whom do you suggest I must give this note to a relative or a friend?

Electricity Board


“What is the name of these flowers, they are so beautiful?” Miss ‘S’ asked.
“Electricity Board.” I replied.
“What??!??”
“Actually 21years back I went to my friend’s house who lived in the quarters of Electricity Board. I brought a cutting of this plant from there and planted it which only had green leaves and some more green leaves. In 21years I first time saw the plant blooming. That’s why these flowers are so unique.”

Does any of the reader know the correct name of this plant?

Easy or difficult?


Mr. ‘H’ : All u need is to ask a question and the comments start popping up on ur blog!
Me : Ya! A question which answers can’t be found on wikipedia! :)

Do you think it is easy to ask a question which answers even wikipedia doesn’t know or it is really very difficult?
