Dear Adharv, With a dose of energetic and enthusiastic feedback, you have made my day. The story began in my head with an intense appreciation of the various senses the snack Bhelpuri is able to deliver! I am happy that the younger crowd has also been able to appreciate this Soliloquy. I will be glad if there is some meaningful takeaway from this story.
Aama, I agree. To change is difficult but not impossible. When it is done with a smile the resistence reduces and the flexibility increases.
Geeta, I like and accept my kids views/thoughts and their attitude because I don't like most of Indian society norms. Sometimes I become sandwich between kids and my husband. It gives me mental stress but I support my kids always because I have confidence of what they are doing is right thing.
Dear Mistt, Your faith in your kids' decisions is in a way, your faith in the upbringing and guidance you have provided them. Ensure that the sandwich doesn't turn into a gooey chutney. This is the dilemma many women face. (Bhelpuri madhyalo sandwich ochhesinde! Chaat centre open chesestama?)
correct ah sonninga guruve (rightly said) Any time chesestamu...nenu ready gurugaru!! MAke sure it tastes yummy
Wonderful narration. I love the comparison of life and Samudra Manthan. To get nacter of peace , hv to swallow the poison of pride and disappointment . Simile of bhelpuri and puffed rice are amazing.
You thought we are bad kids Aparanjigalu gurugale. no out syllabus question frown:) You don't give a chance to say anything madam ji nivve ella helbidthira and ur stories are always filled with valuable lessons for life. Nothing could be missed. Time never wait for us...so all I would like to say live happily and love yourself. Adjustments and compromises are required. Adjustmnt alone shldn't be life. Kalake thakka hage navvu badhalagthane irubeku.
