Mother..!!!!!

She got up at 6.00 AM that morning.. it was the day after her daughter's marriage.. last evening, she had dropped her daughter off in her in-law's house, with visibly happy tearful face, and blessed her with a good life ahead. Today, early in the morning, she wakes up to see a house empty, with pin drop silence. Three days back, this house was full of noise and people around, the bride - her daughter was running here and there, dressing up, applying mehendi, chatting with people, deciding what to wear, etc. She has been running around her daughter to make sure her daughter is comfortable at all times. And now, the same home, with no sound, with no life, the mother looks at the decorations made in the house, everything looks very pretty, but nothing is meaningful now, her most lovable daughter is not there...!!! Oh yeah.. her daughter is now someone's wife..!!! A contented mother, who is happy that she has done her duty correctly by choosing a perfect match for her daughter, at the same time, a mother who is missing her daughter more than anything in life..!!!
She slowly gets up, thinks of making coffee for herself, then starts remembering those days when the first thing in the morning, she used to scream at her maximum voice to wake her daughter up...!! She thinks of those golden days when her daughter sleepily pulls her next to her and talk with her..!!! She thinks of those moments when her daughter made her a cup of coffee..!!!!!
She started becoming a little lonely when she knew that her daughter got a job in Bangalore and she is going to stay away from her...!!! But she was damn happy for her... you know, she is not like any normal mother who says sentiments are more important than anything. She is a lady of practicality. She made her daughter understand the importance of education, the importance of knowledge, the importance of a career. She was her daughter's inspiration..!! Well.. she herself is a teacher by profession.. teaching for the past 20 years.. and trust me, she is not an inspiration only to her daughter, but to every other student she had come across..!!!
She has always thought that her daughter was her only support in life.. mentally, physically, emotionally or whatever you call it..!! Now she feels as though, her entire strength is been pulled out from her...!!! Of course, she understands that this is what is life and she is very happy for her daughter... but she is not able to accept the fact that her daughter is not around her anymore..!!!! Mothers...!!! Goddess..!!!!!
She thinks of every trivial thing her daughter has done to her... even after going to Bangalore for work, she and her daughter used to be on the phone every night for hours, she now thinks whether it will be possible!!!! Her daughter used to come home atleast once in 2 weeks, for her daughter cannot be without meeting her for such a long period, she now thinks whether this will happen again ever!!!!
She knows her daughter's temper and she is worried as to how her daughter will manage in her in-laws house!! She knows what a lousy cook her daughter is, she wonders how her daughter is gonna manage things!! Man... how many things can she worry about..!!!!!!!!!!
She herself is a daughter, a lovable sister, a wife, a teacher, she is a doctorate, she knows the world, she is in contact with most of the top most people in the industry, but when it comes to her daughter, she is totally, emotionally bonded. She is with full of love, full of care, full of emotions, full of concern..!!!
Hats off to you mom..!!! Love you forever..!!!!

Naadi Josiyam... That is what they say!!!!

Last weekend, me and my hubby had gone for a "Spiritual" tour, (as we call it) to down south, in Tamil Nadu. We had gone to places like Kumbakonam, Mayavaram, Tanjore etc. In our 2 day trip, on sunday we had gone to one Sivan temple called Vaitheeswaran Koil. It is around 17kms from Mayiladuhurai. Here the Lord is supposed to protect people from health issues and people having any kind of health ailment, if they come and pray here, it is believed to be cured..!!! Such is the power of the Lord here.

There is something much more famous than the Lord himself in this place. It is called "Naadi Josiyam". Heard about this..???? So.. what is this?? what is so special about this...?? Well.. It is said that, when you are born, your destiny is already written for you - what we call as "fate". Its just another form of astrology, but which is believed to be the most accurate of all..!!!!

This kind of astrology, tells about you, your family etc, by reading ur fingerprint (mostly the Thumb print). Your fingerprint is so unique that it can totally "talk" about you..!!! Sounds good right.. :)

We, just out of curiosity, went to this place and wanted to see how the entire thing works. My hubby gave his fingerprint to this man (I escaped off!!!!), and that man says, there will be a set of "olai chuvadi" (scripts written on leaves on those olden days) matching for this particular thumb print and he will filter out the actual "olai" written for my hubby by asking us some questions and matching the same. Weird na..??????? Anyways.. he asked us some basic questions for which my hubby answered, and it came to a point where he himself told that - it is written in the "olai" that my hubby's wife's name will be "Prithi"....!!!!! I was shell shocked..!!! We never told this guy my name or my hubby's name, but he reads the entire thing out from the "olai"..!!!!!! We were really stunned..!!! And this guy keeps reading, talking about my hubby's family, his background, his nature of job etc etc.. and everything turned out to be true...!!! God..!!! How the hell is this possible...?????

I am a firm believer of God and i strongly believe in something called as "fate" or whatever you call it as. Moreover, i believe in science too..!!! I did a project on fingerprint processing in my final year, in which i exploited the idea of the fingerprint being unique for each and every person, and used the same for cryptography. When i was researching for my project, i found out that characteristics of the fingerprint, and how it is said to be unique for each and every person..!! All these are proven facts..!!! Do you know that, even twins fingerprints differs..??? Amazing na..????

I also read somewhere that the actual meaning of Naadi Josiyunm is: Naadi – means approaching…We approach the Rishis through Naadi josiyars to predict the future for us, which they have already done 2000 years back. According to the Rishis, life is full of Mathematics…So using horoscope, they calculate each and everyday happenings for us…If we don’t have any horoscope, the person, who reads the Naadi, [called as Naadi josiyar] takes the Thumb impression of us and with that he predicts our future. Interesting eh....????!!!!

Why did i suddenly wrote about this..?? This astrologer guy told lots about us, our family, our occupation etc and it was kinda eating my head..!!! Is this concept of naadi josiyam true or is it just that these people are smart enough to pull words from our mouth..?? Dunno..!!

There is a very famous proverb

I Believe it because I Hope for it. - Leon Blum

This is what happens in most of the cases i guess.. But one thing i learnt after going through this entire stuff is - Be positive and have faith in God. I feel God is not only a supernatural power but also your guide who will help you in taking the right path in your life..!!! Its just that the path is already set for you - your fate, your naadi or whatever..!!!!! Just like we have Guru (teachers) in schools, in organizations where we identify some person as our role model, in our everyday life where we see our mom n dad as our guide, we can also view God as a Guru who will help us, guide us and save us in all scenarios. This will help each and everyone of us in all means..!!!!
