    Dear Meenu,

    Your grandmother follwed the words of the great saint Kabir who said

    " Malik itna deejiye , jaame kutab Samaye,
    Main bhi Bhookha no Rahoon, Saadh bhi Bhooka na jaye

    Meaning, lord give me so much, that i dont keep hungry, nor will my guests.

    And yes all the blessings of the people she fed so lovingly, are bearing fruit in your life, for the blessing of the hungry, who are fed, are very very powerful, though at that time, we may not feel so.

    Your FB was not long, it was lovely.

    and yr signature below i just noticed, is so wonderful, that dont ask god Why me, ask him try me.A new one for me, but superb.

    For we ask God, to give us strong shoulders, so that we can support others, to give us enough, so we can help the others who are not so fortunate.For we are all his children, arnt we, Meenu ?

    thank u so much.

    Regards

    kamal

    Dear Lakshmi,

    Yes i agree, if we can make a difference in just one life, it is enough.That is why i never feed beggars on the roads, fo they have many patrons, same iwth temples, they have Amitabhs to give them 51 lakhs, help those, to whom no one goes to.

    Regards

    Dear Ashwini,

    thank u dear.This was a known person to us, whose rich days we saw, and they helped Dad a lot, gave him lakhs if credit, in goods, in the mid sixties, and now to be reduced to this state was heartwrenching.

    Thanks.kamal

    Dear Jaya,

    Yes when u expect in return, then that giving is selfish, like u give to a Dharamshala, and want yr name on it, that is useless giving, an act of egotism.

    Thanks.kamal

    and i ammissing yr namesake Jaya, she has just disappeared from indus.

    Jaya, where are u ? Kamal misses u one hell of a lot,. come on.

    Dear kamalji..
    ---Bangalore has "DEveloped" in the wrong direction... but Hubby is from here so its my home now.. I'm From Mumbai and can't adjust to any other place...
    ---Well, unfortunately my dad passed away in 1992... (pancreatic cancer) ... and My wonderful Father in-law passed away in dec 2008... both of them had a great sense of humour and hence I like to read your blogs as they have a touch of"them" somewhere...
    --- Boss definately doesn't like me blogging during office hours... Boss happens to be ME!!:thumbsup I'm in charge of the branch here...
    Till you decide to revive honeymoon with harshaji....ciao

    Dear Kamalji,

    Even comedy has a sad side to it. No doubt you have earned the label of being a comic bolgger etc. but this is a side of Kamalji that we all respect.

    Not ,many people would honour their father's words. Specially when times are though.

    Blessings in every form are welcome Kamlaji.

    Honest, my little one is a perfect example of this.

    Hope you are now going to go back to your old ways.

    Regards,

    Corallux

    What a beautiful thing you did for the lady, Kamalaji.

    You must be teaching that to your children and grand children.

    God bless you.

    Peace on Earth.:thumbsup
