Raising a kid





Many parents say that they have experienced a lot or issues and hurdles in coming up in life because of their weak economic condition and often they say this as a reason and end up trying utilizing the maximum time and effort possible to earn a good economic stability so that they could provide their children all the possible facilities etc., which they haven’t had in their childhood hence they make themselves get too busy in the rat race.

 But often not realizing that the time they are spending in buying the luxuries for the children is exhausting the time that they spend with their children. It is not just the parents, now with they entry of the new toys and things, the child would keep him/ herself be occupied and may not feel it much that they are missing their parents. we all know that the childhood is the most vital phase in a persons life and these innocent children would have a less parental support at this phase because of their business.

Parents now-a-days, buy a lot a toys and games for their children. But before buying, they check for the cautions and the age limit written on the carton. It is good being cautious and at this point, they are being cautious but they forget that they are making the child become much more sensitive towards the external environment. Though prevention is better that cure, prevention should not be to an extent that child avoids it. For example, a one year kid, in olden days used to get a crawler that he/she could hold it and gain support in walking. Now, the parents are afraid that the child would fall using the crawler and get hurt so they buy small/automated cars so that the child can be more comfortable and move from places.

Change and advancement is good but only to a certain extent.The mental growth of the new age children is very fast. This is good so is the risk of them getting into bad habits or addictions is…If we could recall once, our older generations had more children in the family any the money used to not so much as now. Yet the parents tried to keep their children happy. Parents used to get one fruit for their four children and distribute it to four of them equally. That time sharing was caring. But now, as there is only one child in the family, the question of sharing has become invisible.

Those days the word we was used predominantly and now a days it changed to me. Are we implanting the seeds of selfishness in our children? Even if there are two children in a family, there are things that are separate for each of them they have their individual rooms, individual toys etc. hence their willingness to share has reduces in fact, minimized very evidently.

Think about it and you will understand the mistake is in us, not to blame the innocent kids that they were sleeping when you came back home from work and all tired.

college life



Hey i see a smile on ur face..the minute we see or talk about college often a small smile appears on our face.....:)

college a community where we spend a part of our life. made friends , had fun fights, been ragged or rag juniors, tease fellow students, help few, hurt few, tensions during exams and result announcing days,  ( loads to pen so lets stop abt feelings n blah) one question i asked many {y u go to college? the answer was 1. to have fun, 2. to gain knowledge and do something for the society or thyself} .....:)


 The next que i asked was wat did u learn. the answer was again. it was loads and loads of theory etc..many in our generation has the craze of bunking classes n going to watch some movie and hang out with friends. College is a time when the "cool kids" disappear. Who you eat lunch with does not define you as a person. There is no such thing as "un-cool."

College really was the best time of our life. Balancing academic and social life is difficult. This balance is something that most likely our parents helped us with in high school in college, we can no longer relied on our parents for structure, rules, or academic motivation. All of these were in our hands. Being at college can be socially overwhelming an array of evening and weekend activities was open to us, including lectures, club/organization events, formals, dorm events,night outs during the exams, taste the flavour of success or failure and of course, parties.
If we were from anywhere other than a big city, most of our friends are probably a lot like us. we may not all share the same personality, but the things we considered "normal" are probably the same. our parents are probably a lot like our friends' parents. They probably even share the same tax bracket. we visited to the same type of restaurants as our friends...:)


 we and our friends probably share similar ideas of what is fun to do on a Friday night. Until we got to college, it rarely occurs to us that life could be any different, until we find yourself surrounded by hundreds of students just like us, with very different stories. we quickly learnt that "normal" simply doesn't exist. One of the best things about going to college is the opportunity to interact with a wide variety of cultures. Students from the other side of the world and the other side of the county will likely both be living on our dorm floor. getting rid of stage fear by constant presentations.

i guess college not just teach us theory. guys look what college has though us. it thought us how to live how to win. i feel it lets us know and understand how we can fit in the world. it helps to understand importance of being good to people, it helps us to get ready for some adjustments,  makes us ready to face the real world, makes us to find the people for life, handle the pressure, importance of being known by people. great memories and expectations. 
now, lets Welcome ourselves to college, where we are now considered an adult....:)


 When we reach your 30s, we would likely look back at our college experience and wish we really could do it all over again.cherish the moments. be happy :)

world

WOAH ....!!!!!

This would have been the first expression on many people faces as they saw the title "world"
i know that for a matter of fact that we cant talk much about the world as it would have no end for the topic.
for me world is really complicated. we strive for peace and harmony and we revolt for them vch means we are breaking the peace. the world is made of people ( i know u guys aint kids to not know the dictionary meaning of this in a blog) vast is the word for the variety of people living.....:)

Sometimes i wonder oxford and thesaurus would have fallen short of adjectives to describe people in the world. all the religions and their preachings r just to say us how to lead a peaceful and good life (though everyone interprets them in their own sweet ways) . but the current scenario of world is entirely different from what it was.....

Almost all the youngsters have this popular notion in their mouth " i want to show the world that i.." .( no comments on this) now a days we hardly use the word "we" most of the time its about i, me and myself. some say " i dont care what the world think"  we can say this only when we stop thinking as our thinking often revolves on the world around us. also remember we die when we stop thinking so better no say " i dont care what the world think's"when u know u actually r thinking about the world.

Remember we come alone and go alone but most important  thing is, to give our life a proper meaning for our existance on the world. only the dominant things (good or bad) we have done in life we be   remembered. you life would me meaningful only if you are deeply missed

live n let live .......:)
