Taare Zameen Par

A hearttouching moving, well maketed, which was the need of the hour...

Every child is special, infact every person, as is said, 'Child is the father of Man…'.There are many films made on this subject….Its so true…Beauty conscious people starve to keep fit, and some starve because they have no choice…..child laborers, mentally retarded people, orphans, illegitimate kids…some among them get special concession, what about others, there are those amidst the normal people, who really deserves special care but often gets neglected…..

Children need to be motivated, and not pressurized. It is mere ignorance that some parents boost about their talented children, without realizing that its Gods gift…Anything could happen, anytime, anywhere…..

11 children died in Delhi, this March not able to withstand the examination pressure.

I remebered a small conversation between a father & Son:

Father: At your age, Abraham Lincolon was sitting under the street lights and studying.

Son: At your age, he was the president of US....

Children should not be compared, but best out of them should be brought out.

Anjali, Taare Zameen Par, and Black….at times films like this keep me going….

Failure should never go to your heart, and success should never go to your head, both make a person to fall in life.

Havent you heard the story, of a Guru, telling his disciple on the last day, ‘ Now my son, don’t forget, there is God in everything, everyone’.

While returning home, there was commotion on the road, all of them where going in the opposite direction, one small child came to this young student, and asked him too to follow as there was a mad elephant coming from that direction. But he did not heed that childs advise. The elephant came and hit him, some how he just escaped death. When his Guru came to see him, he asked Guru, you said there is God in everything, everyone, why did not God save me? Guru said, God came in the form of a kid but you ignored him.

Now God has come home in the form of Vaishak, Godu and Solu, or Gopan Kunjachan, Kavitha.…..

Vice today, is virtue tomorrow. When others drink, smoke, flirt or do something negative, it’s a big mistake, but if its own son!!! Hide it, or Justify it, that’s society. Same way is with succes,it goes so much into head, that people forget the need for elders blessings, gets indulged in it so much, that they need a failure to make them realise its importance in life...Or is it what they say in malayalam : Ariyatha pulla Choriumbol Ariyum? Well hope movies like this will have an influence on the society, and it would not be soon seen and forgotten.

Vagmon tour....A refreshment.....

After having just completed The Painter of signs, By R.K.Narayanan,which was an average one, though was pinned up to it till the end, no doubt......

On Saturday we the AFL team from our office went to Vagmon for a one day trip....setting out at 6.15 in the morning from Kakkanad, others getting in on the way, reached there by 10 am. Majority also wanted to go to Thekadi, so didnot get on to Kurusumala, went to a church, tea estate behing, Mutta kunnu....the breeze there was not letting us go....We felt as though we would be gone with the wind...into ..Where??? Then the Pine garden, ....and off to Thekady, but didnot get the tickets for boating, had lunch, and on the way back, stopped at Kulamavzhu dam.....Enjoyed the day with two kids, Bablu, and Anjali, and our wonderful network and tele team....Majority of the day was spend in the Tavera with Manikandan driving, and on the way back, after Sreeja got down at her house, there was a small reminder from God....Every cloud do have a silver lining....A scorpio hit the Tavera from behind, and the drunk scorpio person, fled away......

I enjoyed everybit of the speaking of the songs, the drive with scenic beauty of varied nature around, the cock screw roads....dashes avoided, elephents and much more......

Human mind is such that, they find time to do all that they want, as per their priority, and complain that they dont have time to do any thing...especially the things they dont want to do..right..By any ways, it depends on once priority, thats it....for time is the same for every one......

Within a week had seen so many things.....

2. Birthdays...
3. Reading of three novels....cant imagine...the one that was lying in the shelf unread for last 6-7 years...completed it in just 3 days.....
