An Imperfect Life

-
1st May is called a "Labor Day" or "May Day" which is celebrated throughout INDIA. In some countries the entire week is celebrated as Labor week.

This week also coincides with 'Maharashtra Divas' and 'Gujarat Divas' respectively, Maharashtra Day and Gujarat Day because the states of Maharashtra and Gujarat were created on the same week in 1960. I don't know about rest of the world but my family used to get holiday on this day - being a labor & working in Maharashtra we never cared about the day but were happy to get a holiday.

But from last couple years I have been celebrating this day truly as a Labor day here in America (without a holiday) after all we are labor here right if this term hurts you then in more polite way lets call it as knowledge workers :)

Coincidentally, this year 1st May was a holiday, not because the government of US started giving it and passed the amendment for a holiday but because it was a Saturday on that day.
After talking with my family members that morning I really got a feeling and m convinced that we are all labors here and live a very normal life of an ordinary worker who always strive to support his family and try to live happily as possible as he can, so for all such people like me out there this is the poem I composed on that day for all of you..

एव्हडयाश्या आयूश्यात सगळ काही करायच ||
उठायच, बसायच | भरपुर झोपुनही बघायच||

OK guys it is not only difficult to write in Marathi but impossible, now lets use the Sonia Gandhi's strategy with due respect to her after all she is the pioneer of this act :)

Here you go again...

Evadyashya aaushyat sagala kahi karaycha|
Uthaycha, Basaycha, Bharpur Jhopunahi pahaycha||

Sagalyan sathi khup kamawaycha, Swatahasathi thoda gamawaycha|
Namratene jag jinkaycha, Hasat hasat, haraycha|
Ektara haatat gheun jag bhar bhatkaycha, Aaptansobat gharich ramaycha|

Pahilya pawsat chimba bhijaycha, bhar unhat hundadaycha|
Kadhi premat padaycha, tar kadhi kathor houn ragawaycha|
Nachaycha, vachaycha, vajawaycha, gaycha|
pohaycha, dhawaycha, khelaycha, bolaycha|
Ladwaycha, rusaycha, hasaycha ani haswaycha|

Evadyashya aaushyat sagalakahi basawaycha|
Evadyashya aaushyat sagalakahi basawaycha||

Painful Echoes..

-
I need a change I need some life, from this white snow and this boring life. Resisting the winter cold with light summer coat I was waiting for the Sun, holding candle of hope He never arrived, but left me alone to leave this world The best friend of earth gave me the pain hence I decided to go for a change. I need a change I need a life, from this darkness of this life Walking alone in the dark tunnel with the hearted legs I kept on promising myself, I will see the light But tunnel never ended for me; it seemed I was going in loop; hence I decided to break the hoop. I need a change I need a life, from all its ambitions from its all dreams Strange things are happening with complications and the room is full of frustration In the mean time I heard some one said these are the indications that I need change. Trying to keep back the voice it tells me again now you have no choice.

Interesting Numerology!!

I found one more name which gives the theory (I don’t believe in) a concrete base. I will explain that to you in a moment. Before we go further let me give you some glimpse of Numerology which you might already know. I have a strong interest in Vadic mathematics so while reading about it long back I came across this theory of numbers, neither I am a firm believer of destiny nor I believe in horoscope but I still believe there are certain things which can not be put in the mathematical express and there we have to feebly believe on such theories. Where word fails to express tear starts isn’t it? Numerology what is it? Many of you might know already, it is any of many systems, traditions or beliefs in a mystical or esoteric relationship between numbers and physical objects or living things. As per Wikipedia Numerology and numerological divination were popular among early mathematicians, such as Pythagoras, but are no longer considered as part of mathematics and are regarded as pseudo ma

Ek Chidiya.. Anek Chidiya..

Remember this ad which all of us might have seen on Doordarshan, where in the writer wanted to convey the concept of being united the concept of ‘Anekta Main Ekta’ (Unity in Diversity). Do we really need it in 21 st century, the so called IT world? Or are we educated enough now and don’t need such ideals any more? Well, while thinking on this topic, I am propelled to see that ad again on you tube and I certainly after watching it realize that this ad still holds very true in today’s world too. We are as a country only 62 years old and the constant hampering of such advertisement is imperative to let people know that we are one - Indian. You might have read about what Chinese think tank have indulged in and what are their future plans to divert us from growing as a super power – I certainly don’t want to go in the details of that topic since this would not be the good forum for that to discuss but the bottom line is if we are least prepared then yes the day is not far where in we mig
