Respect:
  • If someone respects you, you like that.
  • If someone respects you, you reciprocate by respecting him/her. (The person concerned may be good or bad.)
So, it is worth respecting people around, your respect is certainly going to be maintained.

Destination Wedding:
  • It is a wedding event generally held far away from residences of the would-be couple.
  • Here, the wedding is hosted in a location where guests have to travel long to reach the said wedding place... the DESTINATION.
  • Guests are expected to stay long for the event.
  • Places are usually grand like Palace, Resort, Beach. In India, Goa, Udaipur and some resorts near Mumbai are typically considered. It is one's imagination and choice.

Elopement:
  • This is a way of getting married... often unexpectedly... without inviting guests to the wedding.
  • Usually, such weddings are without consent and/or knowledge of the parents.
  • Such weddings, when informed to relatives, are often a surprise.
Praise: We are fond of being a man in the crowd of the herd, having a herd mentality, just copying and doing what others do... be it praising Sachin Tendulkar or anybody else for that matter.

We shall never find out our own Hero around us doing great social service worth appreciating and do that.

We often get impressed by someone very easily and carried away to praise, appreciate and raise above oneself. All around us follow and a big crowd of followers is created around a wrong person. By the time we realise our mistake and decide to throw them down, great social damage has already occurred.
Take a pledge this Dasserra:

  • Decide the dates for meeting parents staying away
  • If by chance your parents are staying away from you, fix minimum two to three of these days every year for meeting the parents:


  1. Your own birthday
  2. Your wedding anniversary
  3. New year day morning
  4. Holi
  5. Raksha-bandhan
  6. Makar Sankranti
  7. Independence/Republic Day or
  8. Any date suitable to you every year


Your Relations/Friends and You!

Every relation has three possible situations:
  1. Relation with both Love and Respect
  2. Relation, but neither Love nor Respect 
  3. Relation with either of the two: Love Or Respect
Now whatever one of the above three you find about any given relationship/friendship, the ideal approach is to respond all with love and respect in total.

Just try...

Check whether you have any one of the following:

  1. You have stopped long walks, though you are not physically unfit.
  2. You have started eating more than you were eating for last few years.
  3. You have stopped learning new things and studying.
  4. You have started counting your assets and bank deposits.
  5. You have accepted and started liking your obesity and big abdomen.

If any one of above is "YES", you are mentally an OLD-PERSON needing mental care or your end is imminent.
I say, do not remove shoes outside the house!

People expecting or demanding you to remove the shoes outside their entrance must be sure of a clean and smooth walkable floor, or they should provide an alternative disposable pair of shoes/slippers to the visitor.

What do you say?
Agenda:
  1. ‘Lecture on Organ Donation and Body Donation’ – by Dr Prafull Shiroya (Lokdrushti Trust, Surat)
  2. ‘Problems of a Blind Person & Her/his Development through Modern Technologies’ – by Dipak Raval (National Association for Blind, Navsari)
  3. Felicitation of Organ/Body Donors’ Family Members

NOTE: This is an open event. There are no entry charges. Invite your friends to this event via Facebook.

Present generation young people talk and express their views most of the times in English. But when it comes to expressing personal emotions of love and affection, they sing Hindi songs.


Ironical, isn't it?!
Facebook activeness demands offering/sharing your views and getting the responses from your FB friends.

If you do not share anything, all you are left with is responding your friends views.

Our recent tour of Kutch landed an interesting coincidence. I (Dr Bharat Desai), my wife Dr Bhavana, and our friends Dr Vijay Desai, his wife Meena Desai, Bepsi-ben and Villoo-ben made three nights and four days plan for Kutch - Bhuj.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

An ophthalmologist by qualification and profession, Dr. Bharatchandra Desai loves reading about history, religion, and spirituality. He has written about them and also about 'Anavils' at length.

ABOUT THE BLOG

When I started writing on my blog, I used to ask myself if I should write at all. If yes, why? I would like to share my views on this topic with you.
I write for myself. This may sound egoistic, but it is self-explanatory as well. Because I want freedom from my thought cycle, I get mental catharsis by just writing out whatever it is. While having some serious events with myself, say the death of my mother first and then father, writing down makes a record of my emotions at a given time which I’m never going to repeat.
I do write for my daughter Vaishali, son Rahul and their friends. I want to tell my experiences and let them know about me. I have done this in Life At 60 article series – it is my mini-autobiography, telling all about me. Article on Marriage, Parents in old-age homes, etc. are other such articles.
