Compromises..

Somebody said- “Life is not all about compromises “...Akash got a weird smile , when Maya said this. They are working in the same BPO. Now having a coffee break  after a long session.

Maya , age 21 is smart, pretty, and very much ambitious about life. she has a very clear idea of what she need from life, and what she want to do in life. And, the the job at this call centre is just a break  for her. Akash was still thinking about what she said just before,..and letting him have enough thinking, Maya went to get coffee for both.

“life is not all about compromises” ..may be its true, but except the case of Akash..For him, what was in life was only compromises..compromises...

It was when he lost his father, and mother married again..When he had a sister and brother in mother’s 2^nd marriage, he lost his part of parental love.. He lost his first love, before he confess it, as they didn’t allow him to join her school but in a boarding school after his 10^th. He lost his best friends, when supporting another friend, who backstabbed him later. He couldn’t study his favourite course, as there was no support from family. And he made a compromise again when he had to marry a girl, just because she was wealthy, but not educated or good in anything. It was his step father’s idea to get him married with his friend’s daughter, just for the money they can give as dowry.. And  now,he is alone giving  up everything behind, and working in a call centre ,  that is very far away from home...Now he is living..just living...

He stopped thinking, when he saw Maya coming with two coffee for them..She don’t know his story. Nobody there know that..and he don’t want to tell them. “ and he said “Maya, what were you talking about..?something about life..and compromises or something..?”..

A big realization from a little- part 2

  

Meenu got so much angry. She accused them for not giving her freedom, she said “I am not a kid any more, being a grown up girl, I know, what is good and what is bad for me .It is not a big deal that you both done for me. Every parents do that. I need to go, and I have come home only to get money for that. If you are not ready to give it, I know what to do.”. Her parents are startled at her behaviour. Each word from her hit them, as a huge blow. They couldn’t respond at all. Meenu, then hurriedly packed her bag and set out to hostel. She didn’t mind to hear her parents calling her back. She was just out of her mind..

“Are you alone or Is there anybody with you?”.... Meenu just woke up from her thoughts. She looked for the person who asked this, and found that the question was actually not for her. She found a little boy, of some 10 years old standing next to her seat. It was a lady, sitting with her asked the boy, whether there is anybody he come with.

The boy looked so innocent, and was a little hesitant to speak up. But the lady asked again, and he said “I am alone, and nobody is with me”. That was really surprising, a 10 year old from a village, travelling in a city bus with nobody in the place of a guardian. In the cities, the things are different anyway. This is not a city, but an ordinary village, and the bus is heading to the city. That’s why everyone got surprised including Meenu. She thought, may be he too had some quarrel with his parents and setout alone. But, he is too little to take a decision like that. Her mind is now turned in to the thoughts about him, and she is becoming calmer than before. Then, another lady asked where his parents are, and why they send him alone. The first lady asked whether he had some quarrel at home. Everybody now want to know his whereabouts. And he made everyone surprised telling his story..

A big realization from a little - part 1

She was looking outside the window, but actually not watching anything. A lot of thoughts are flooding inside her. Her mind was wandering somewhere. She was having a mixture of emotions; she was angry and was feeling to shout loud, at the same time having an urge to cry as much as she could. But she can’t. She just can’t because there are a lot of people nearby, she can’t cry or shout publically. Her name is Meenu, a 20 year old sweet girl, doing her graduation in a college far  from her hometown.

She has been at her home for two weeks on vacation. Now, going back to the college hostel. Her parents are very fond of her, being their only child, and reluctant to send her in a distant college. But, thinking about her future, the finally decided to send her way from them.

At first, Meenu was also very sad to live away from parents, but gradually she joined  the flow. She was very thrilled to join such a big college, meeting children from different places in the country; finally she has become one of them. She got so many friends; her attitude towards life got changed, She is not an ordinary village girl anymore. Her thoughts are changed. The frequency of calls to her home got decreased., and she speak very less to her parents now. She think them as old buddies, who can’t understand how to enjoy life.

Now she need everything expensive, branded things, to be in an equal level with her friends, who are from rich families, and come college just to show off. When she got a vacation, she came to home with an idea of getting something from them. She need some money, for a trip with her friends. She need it for buying some new trendy dresses and accessories, and some more things too. The money she asked was a huge amount to the parents, and they also didn’t agreed the idea of the trip with friends.

     She gave me nice task too..I also have to tag some of my friends and, answer some questions.And, you know what? I have to prepare a nice question too..to go as a chain..

    So, Here comes the rules..

   

1. You must post the rules.
2. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post & then create 11 new questions to ask the people you’ve tagged.
3. Tag 11 people and link to them on your post.
4. Let them know you’ve tagged them..

The 11 questions,that  she had posted are as follows..and  my answers too..

1.)      If you could have any superpower, what would it be?

If I have any super power now, then I wish I could, renovate my house, just like my dream house..I would like to have a ' Naalukettu' (the court yard should be in middle, surrounded by the rooms in the four sides). I wish ,If there can be a lotus pond in the middle, in which the rain can be very beautifully,make the drops scatter..There should be a 'padippura' instead of a gate in the east side..And, the house furnished with lots of wooden works..And there should be a room, which can be called as my own library,having shelfs full of books to read..an armchair in the same room, near the window..

mm....oh..its going like there is no end..so coming to next Q:

2.)      What was your favourite childhood television program?

         I remember some of the programs that were on TV  in my childhood days...one of them was chantrakantha, which was about a princess named chntrakantha, who was caught by some evils, and put her in a cage. And, her lover comes to save her...This was my favourite program, even though ,it was not actually  made for kids..

   I used to watch some cartoons like  Hercules, Adventures of Zinbad ,etc..Zinbad was my favourite..

3.)      Have / had any celebrity crushes ?

 I like many celebrities like Sharukh Khan,Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan,  Mohan Lal, Prithviraj, Vijay,Sooriya....and the list continues..but, when asking about something like a ‘celebrity crush’, then I can point to two other stars..one my favourite hero john Abraham, (I like his smile a lot..loved his movie ashayein). And the next one, and the latest and more favourite....it is ‘Arnav Singh Raizada’( you know him if you watch ‘Iss Pyaar ko kya naam doon’ in star plus..).i am rally addicted to this show, and  became a great fan of him..

4.)      If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would you go?

       If I could go anywhere, then I would like to go to Himalyas and visit ‘Kailas’..the abode of Lord Siva ..

5.)      Name 1 thing you miss about being a child.

  One thing I missed most, in my childhood was My Grandparents..(I miss them now too..).But, at that time I needed them more.I think so..

6.)      Name the one comic/book character that you loved the most and why?

     The  comic characters which I love most(even now), are Soothran and Sheru in the story ‘Soothran’, in “Balarama”. I just loved them both,..they are so funny, the sheru is so innocent..actually (idiotic innocence)..even there expressions in the pictures make me laugh..

7.)      What is the one thing that you are dying to try but haven’t had a chance to do so yet ?

     I wish..I want to be writer..

        This may be strange to anybody hear this ..but, I really want to write a book. Now, it is not the time, and I am not good for a try now,..so ...waiting for the correct chance..

8.)     Do you have a role model – someone you want to emulate? Whom do you admire the most?

                My role model to be as a good person is none other than my better half, as he has some of the best qualities which I don’t have. He  has got some nice principles in life..I admire His willpower to achieve anything, he want..and the way how he can stick firmly to his point, and the way he love and care all our dear ones.. I am so proud to be his life partner..

         


In my career, I want to be a professor, and I have a role model to be a good teacher. I am talking about my favourite miss, Mrs. Shaija. She showed us, how a teacher should be, how a lecture should be..So, Iwant to be a good teacher like her..

9.)      What do others make of you?

Most of the people who know me , consider me as a kid..They find me as a girl, who is friendly, easily got attached  type, studious(me not really)very sentimental, and show maturity on correct time being a kid other times..

10.)  Have you ever gotten into a fight or punched someone ?

  I often make fights with my siblings..(there are three younger than me in my home), and nowadays, the most of the fights are with my betterhalf..I also make some small fights with my parents also..Oh, how can I miss my sister in-law here? We also make some small fights..

     But, these are not all any ‘Fights’ na..?

  I had quarrelled with one of my closest friend too..But, I never have punched any one..(Except my family..I punch them all, whenever I get a chance..)

11.)   For Girls – If you woke up tomorrow to find out you are Brad Pitt, what would be the first thing you’d say upon looking in the mirror???

For Boys – If you woke up tomorrow to find out you are Angelina Jolie, what would be the first thing you’d say upon looking in the mirror???

  


I will say..” Oh my  God”..and scream which will wake up my better half from his nice sleep...

The  last question is to be from me..and here it is..

12) Is there anything, that others complain about you..?

     The only thing, others complain about me is, I am so  lean..day by day, I am becoming more like a ‘skelton’. They accuse me that, I eat and sleep very little, and worry too much for nothing.. May be they are true..I also, want to improve myself..mm..just let my project to end..then see..

So, these are my answers and one question..
