Somebody's Mother

"Super... Absolutely super taste" - these lines were reciting inside me as Gulaab jaamun dissolved inside my mouth. Suddenly my mother called me.

My mother was preparing objectives for lesson plan on a poem. She asked me to analyse and tell whether she could add some more point's to it. I started reading the poem.

A lady, specifically old lady was described in such a way that readers can imagine her in front of their eyes. Consider a situation where your mother at her old age is trying to cross the road, but no trespassers are willing to help her. You would certainly think why all those are lacking in kindness or helping nature.

The same situation occurs but one boy comes forward to help her. She describes him as laddie (Scottish word for young man). We should appreciate that boy's kindness. May be everyone who passed her without noticing the urge of help, had that humanity.
But the boy executed it at right time.
This makes a big difference!! At last that old granny praises and wishes him.

Here the thing is that we should not neglect any body who is in need. We should think that she may be someone's mother or else any important person. While in the same way may be our own mother can get help like we did.

That appraisals from so many granny's like this old lady, stands us apart from that trespassers.

Let us be like that boy, purity in mind and humanity in heart.
(Poem: Somebody's Mother by Mary Dow Brine)

ಗಾವೋ ವಿಶ್ವಸ್ಯ ಮಾತರಃ

ಗಾವೋ ವಿಶ್ವಸ್ಯ ಮಾತರಃ ಎಂದರೆ ಈ ಜಗತ್ತಿಗೆ ಗೋವು ತಾಯಿ ಇದ್ದಂತೆ. ಸರಳ, ಮೂಕ ಮತ್ತು ಉಪಯುಕ್ತ ವಾದ ಜೀವಿ. ನಾವು ಎಷ್ಟು ಪ್ರೀತಿ ತೋರಿಸ್ತಿವೋ ಅದಕ್ಕೆ ಮೀರಿದ ಪ್ರೀತಿ ನಮಗೆ ಕೊಡುತ್ತದೆ. ಅದರ ಹಾಲು ಎಷ್ಟು ಪ್ರಯೋಜನಕಾರಿ ಎಂದರೆ ಅದಿಲ್ಲದೆ ನಮ್ಮ ದಿನನಿತ್ಯ ಆಹಾರ ಪದ್ಧತಿ ಸಂಪೂರ್ಣವಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ನಾವು ತಿನ್ನುವ ಎಷ್ಟೋ ಸಿಹಿ ಪದಾರ್ಥಗಳು ಹಾಲಿಲ್ಲದೆ ತಯಾರಾಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದರೆ ಈ ಹಾಲನ್ನು ಉತ್ಪಾದನೆ ಮಾಡುವ ಡೈರಿ ಫಾರ್ಮ ಗಳ ಸಂಕಷ್ಟ ಯಾರಿಗೂ ತಿಳಿದಿಲ್ಲ . ಅವರಿಗೆ ಆಗುವ ನಷ್ಟ ಅಷ್ಟಿಷ್ಟಲ್ಲ. ಇದರಲ್ಲಿ ಕಲಬರಿಕೆ ಮಾಡದೆ ಇದ್ದರೆ ಅವರಿಗೂ ಉಳಿಗಾಲವಿಲ್ಲ. ಅಂತಹ ಪರಿಸ್ಥಿತಿ ನಿರ್ಮಾಣವಾಗಿದೆ. ಮೊನ್ನೆ ತಾನೆ ಸಾಗರದ ಸಮೀಪದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಒಂದು ಡೈರಿ ಫಾರ್ಮ್ ಗೆ ಭೇಟಿ ನೀಡಿದೆ. ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಅವರು ಎದುರಿಸುವ ಸವಾಲುಗಳನ್ನು ಬಿಚ್ಚಿಟ್ಟರು. ಅಲ್ಲಿ ಅಂದಾಜು 300 ದನಗಳು ಇದ್ದವು. ಸುಮಾರಷ್ಟು ಹೈಬ್ರಿಡ್ ತಳಿಗಳು. ಉಳಿದವು ಮಲ್ನಾಡ್ ಗಿಡ್ಡ. ಅವರಿಗೆ ಅಂದಾಜು 600 ಲೀಟರ್ ಹಾಲು ಉತ್ಪಾದನೆ ಆಗುತ್ತದೆ. ದಿನಕ್ಕೆ ಒಂದು ದನದ ಮೇಲೆ ಅವರಿಗೆ 200 ರೂಪಾಯಿಗಳನ್ನು ವ್ಯಯಿಸಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. 300 ದನಕ್ಕೆ ಅಂದಾಜು 60,000 ರೂಪಾಯಿಗಳು. ಪ್ರತಿ ಲೀಟರ್ ಗು ಅಬ್ಬಬ್ಬಾ ಅಂದರೆ 40 ರೂಪಾಯಿಗಳು ಎಂದು ಭಾವಿಸೋಣ. ಹಂಗಾದ್ರೆ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಬರೋದು 24000 ರೂಪಾಯಿಗಳು. ಇಲ್ಲೇ ಅವರಿಗೆ ಎಷ್ಟು ನಷ್ಟ ಆಗ್ತಿದೆ ಅಂತ ತಿಳಿಯಬಹುದು.

CA$H-less!

We are in digital age, where most of the daily task are carried out by 0's and 1's. Even cell phones have been evolved into smart phones from past decade. The smartness of these cell phones helped us to step into digital age. I remember when these UPI transaction was not in the picture, we used to visit nearest ATM to withdraw cash and then rush into some general stores to get change. It was very difficult to get smaller denominations for shopkeepers, when some one gave ₹500 for small tea. Especially, shopkeepers used to give chocolates for the remaining smaller amount of money. If ATM runs out of money, then we are doomed. Oh Gosh! Now we can't even think life without UPI transaction. Somehow we can say that these kind of small problems has been solved using UPI transaction or digital transaction. I totally agree with this and was thinking in the same way. Ah! This is our mindset. To be honest, I only realized when I started spending my salary. This U

Stop COVIDIOTS and don't be one

Hi readers, it's been an year, since I haven't posted on blog. I know COVID times was extremely difficult for most of the people. Most of 'Work from Home' professionals were among the blessed ones to continue their job with less difficulty. Other dependent businesses were badly affected. People living in semi urban or rural areas were less likely to notice COVID cases compared to metro or urban areas. The first wave of COVID 19 had affected badly and we can see what toll the economy had to pay. Even after creating awareness by respective health board ( I know the fact that everyone hates the way they spread awareness before every phone call ), some people just blindly ignored the consequences and still doesn't follow the rules. Wearing a mask & maintaining social distance is a very basic thing that even an illiterate can understand. But some educated people still continue to spread fake news through social media forwards by mentioning "The vaccine may kill
