घर असावे घरा सारखे !

घर असावे घरा सारखे !

घर हे माझे नि तुझे,
एक एक काडी जमवून विणले  जसे .....

भांडणे - चिडणे - रडणे, परतुनी प्रेमात पडणे,
अशी घट्ट वीण विणणे, जन्म भर घरा साठी झटणे......

चार चौघांच्या घरा सारखेच घर हें आमचे,
स्वागत होईल येथे सदैव तुमचे......

ऊब प्रेमाची, आदराची घरास या,
जिवा भावाची माणसे येथे लावी माया.....

खारीचा वाटा मुलांचा हि यात,
दंगा मस्ती हास्याने शोभा वाढवतात.....

घर असावे घरा सारखे - म्हणतो ना आपण,
माणसांनी - नात्यांनीच घराला येते घरपण!

Which diagonal lane?

 What should I wear? The most customary question that haunts every woman. And it was our school reunion after, nearly 20 years. So I had to look my best. It's a different high that you get when you are confident among the school friends and classmates, whether it's carrying yourself dignified enough or it's conveying that you've attained a position for yourself. Specially to the ones, you used to compete with. When, I never compromised on my rank in school, how could I compromise on my appearance and presentation to the same set of classmates? So I picked up an elegant dress and accessories to match. And Vollaa! I was ready to go. Driving your own car to the venue is dope on another level. I didn't know the locality so I switched on the maps. The 'Map lady' started with her instructions, in that monotonous voice. And let me tell you, the way this foreign woman pronounces Indian names of roads, it's sometimes hilarious. You've to keep looking down, zo...

Smile please!

 "Please stand straight dear. Why do you always try to pose in some weird stance?", I yelled at my 10 year old. Since he was a baby, he seldom liked being clicked. Well, for his single one's, he smiled or giggled, but for a family pic, he usually is seen crying or rubbing his eyes or looking down, customarily. It was a big task to click a decent picture of four of us, even after he became a toddler. The elder one would gladly pose with a broad smile. But when one said 'Smile please' before clicking, this naughty youngster, without fail would jump, or pose into a dab covering his face or be a superman or spiderman or something or the other. In some photographs, he is literally swinging in air, I am actually holding him by his arms, just to make sure, he is in the frame. Now that he is grown up a little bit, he tries to pose sometimes. But on some instances, he loses his cool just before being clicked and we can clearly see his angry face in all the photographs that...

When the going gets tough, the tough gets going!

 Most difficult part of being a mom is seeing my kids in pain. Sitting at the bedside of my son, in the hospital, watching him fight his pain after a surgery, I am impelled to think - where did he get this strength from? At this young age, how can he bear the throes? Is he really this strong? Is he doing so to make me feel less wearisome? Or is he a Braveheart? Yes, I know, he is fighting the odds! But as a mom, watching this, my heart aches. I can't undo anything neither can share his agony. I can hold his hand and make him feel secured and say, "Don't worry mom's here". In the hope that he gains some strength to cope up. My younger son, back at home - without his mom around - also fighting his own little battle against obstacles - doing things on his own - standing high - not letting his mom worry or fall weak. And yes, vanquishing - winning over his fear too! As a parent, I have to teach them to endure, hang in and persevere. It is not going to be easy to see t...
