#Year2020_ it taught me a few things; that spiritual growth is a necessity and not issue based; it increased my values of belief, faith and understanding of God of my understanding, belief and faith. It also taught me ,he walks with me and carries me when I'm tired. Therefore I'm
not afraid of him. Prayers were answered , the pandemic helped me kick the nicotine addiction, oh, I'll deny the urge creeps up once in a while, but it kills itself. After my mother passed away ,I felt so alone, not lonely, but alone, and God through pandemic made me understand
Values. Values of and for things, people and above the necessity of learning to live, with what's available and not search beyond; the fascination for reading caught up with me, and I did take up serious reading. Kept myself abreast of what I needed to know but never found time
to ensure that. People were helpful and caring and loving. The little relaxation of the lockdown, had me visiting temples, and, surprisingly , found people wanting me there too,the unknown became known. Doors opened out, debris flushed out,I got into serious attempts of
#Suryanamaskar, every Sunday, without fail, more concentration and focus on Nithya parayanam, thanks to RAJAN, took up reading DEVI BAGAVATHAM, and boy it opened my eyes to a lot. To begin with, I stopped looking at anything only from my perspective. Secondly it taught me to very
seriously look into the views of others , especially the family and the extended family , from their perspective too - resulting in smoothing out a lot of issues. Oh yes, the year also carried with it, death of people whom I'm fond of, losing someone close and not being able to.
see the mortal remains ,to show your love and respect was and is painful - yet it was a lesson, too - nothing is permanent , indeed. I've not seen my sister and her family and my daughter and her family , except in video calls, and that hurts; the consolation is their care and
Love for me, I could (which without the effects of pandemic) I wouldn't have - to them my well being - was of more concern. Yes , the year was and had its ups and downs. A year which I may not forget to the end. I've always believed fighting nature is futile & I still stand by it
My spending time here, increased, met some wonderful people, some I've learnt to ignore(a lesson learnt through pandemic), and above I need to thank one and all , like rock, virtually , but emotionally bound. I simply say we move from 2020 to 202won. Indeed. Regards.God bless all
#2020hasbeenayear that no one expected it to be so tough all over the world... once in a life time experience indeed and none of us wants to go thru’ this again...Yet, it brought a whole different perspective to our lives, the way we live, the way we work, the way we treat others
No doubt it made us stronger but with a realisation that we are nothing against Nature, it let us go back to the basics and understand the value of families, friends and many other things that we take it granted!
Thank you for being my great friend, well wisher and well wisher
more during this year that tested our inner strength.. Heartfelt thanks to you especially for bringing that emotional connect that I needed during this period! May be its all virtual this year but all the love and care shown are real..
#Rajinikanth I fail to understand - people made noise , at his non committal attitude; now there's a hue and cry that it'll be hands down win for DMK. The speculations made , makes me ponder , why these people are ignoring the significant part of his communique ?. Yes quite a few
are breathing a sigh of relief - but these are professional politicos. How many are assessing ground zero? I saw a tweet closing #UdayS gaining ground - the reality is they're grounding him, as the functionaries are not willing to spend. His aunt attracts more crowd then he -
I've seen it in person - live in more than 3 points. Are people talking about MKS not willing to attend meetings in Devar dominated areas ? Someone else is taking of AIADMK - Sasikala - speculations are good, indeed; the people at large ain't fools - to them keeping DMK away is
2019, till May 02, was ok. On that day, by around noon time, I got the biggest shock of my life - I lost my mother in my arms. I'm yet to get over it, but God of my faith and belief, has managed to pull me through, so far. The rest of the year, it was focused on rituals, and so.
on. My mother in the last of couple of years, has been talking to my sister and me , about not going to Benares, for her annual rites, but to have it done in Sakkarai padithurai, in her native, we kept telling her , when the time comes,we will look into it. The onus of a high
Responsibility as the defacto head of the HUF fell on me and honestly I was not fit for it. It's huge task, managing emotions of people and I'm not good at it. However, God, in his mercy has been kind enough to give me a helping hand. Socially I had ostracised myself, and moved.
I was amazed at our Honourable Prime Minister, during his interaction with the farmers , not once did his voice break. That he tore the opposition apart, is nothing new, but the stats he presented today, took me by surprise. I've been watching politicians,effectively from 1967/8,
& for the first time , I see a statesman , holding the office of the PM, and not a politician. Believe me, 11 years ago I did not believe that we as a nation, will have such a person, dedicated, sincere, simply implying - I've nothing to lose but the nation has everything to gain
A couple of months ago, identified around 7 strays (1 we lost), the test were given injections and cleaned up too - these were all strays in and around my place of dwelling and the vet Dr. from the govt.vet hospital , a nice guy. Normally I leave a couple of huge
Bowls of water at the gate, for them. Then came rains, my portico was open. The recent twin cyclones, my place has become a sort of abode for these 6. My pet bullies me into feeding them too 😭 & this began with dinner, now it's lunch too. First walk in the morning, they run out,
3. Come back by 11 to rest on my steps and the portico gate, I now have a rain shield , which goes up to the road. Feed time, my pet blows the conch - that too before I sit for my brunch / lunch. I'll not deny I'm enjoying it, but sooner or later I'll begin my travel and I'm
#SurgicalOnslaught by @narendramodi today, ripping the opposition apart, and the kind of data presented, without once referring to titbits, I've no regrets , that I not only voted for him, but did my little bit in 2014 & 19; I see people lamenting that we gave 303 , not for
2. Folding hands (this was a jibe against the PM), - just remember your individual votes , possibly increased the margin of a win in your constituency and as a whole you're not take credit for 303 given to BJP, it was collective effort; I've stated this before and I'm reiterating
3. it here, yet again - as the PM of the nation, he cannot act on whims and fancies. If you've not understood that, then you're still politically naive , and you've no clue as to how the government functions. Personally I feel at gut level, this extraordinary patience shown is to
