VIP stories

 
   
 
    Usually everyone scrolls the Instagram News-feed when they have no work. On that day I did the same thing. Suddenly I came across a post which brought back some beautiful memories.
Back in childhood, the toughest job for us, was to go to a saloon for a haircut. Upon that our father would be with us monitoring on the haircut whether it is trimmed to a decent shape or not. That haircut was the most hatred one. 

    But, did any one noticed we had an extra stool on the chair, especially for children. That was a VIP treatment for us. We would get an extra pride by sitting on it. But actual fact was to manage the height they would provide the stool. We loved the water being sprayed on our hairs, which made them easy to trim it. These memories were beautifully sketched by cartoonist @_art_of_guru.

  Yes you can follow him using that ID in Instagram. Well not only that, when I recently visited the Saloon, the barber said me something which was so true. "When you were kids, we used to decide a haircut which suits your face. But now the time has changed. People guide us regarding their hairstyle and at the end it becomes some weird fashion". After saying this he gave a sarcastic smile.

   What he said was completely right. We see people following their favorite Celebrity's Hairstyle. The uniqueness within them has gone. Everyone are running behind some others fashion instead of creating their own. Leave it, anyhow I wanted to share that small stool pride. I think most of them have felt that privilege. This is just to bring back the old times. The photo which I have attached with this blog post is done by that cartoonist.

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 ರ...

Feel and understand

"To understand something first we need to feel"        Actually it is a simple line with in-depth meaning. Many consequences have occurred in everyone's life. We usually judge things from 1 point of view or in other words, our point of view.       I'll give you an example. Consider a situation that you are walking in a road, with a bun in your hand. Some random small child rushes towards you and steal your bun. How will you react ?       First thing you may do is to catch that child, and teach him/her some good manners. or gathering public and bashing that child. or cursing that child and letting go off the situation. But think once in the point of view of that child. That child may not even had it's food since days. May be it was walking in streets with immense hunger and that hunger may have made it to steal the bun from your hand. I'm not justifying that stealing was right thing. But I'm explaining the actual fact. Of cours...

The thread

                  Any relationship is held on a word called Trust. When we start conversing with others, a bond develops. Soon we start trusting that person, if he/she's worthy.  Knowingly or Unknowingly we start trusting people, in spite of being aware that the trust can be broken anytime. It is a magical thing which connects people together but at the same time can break them apart.   It is used as a weapon by so many to fight with others. So you would be thinking why did I attach that image!... I will explain it.       A balloon is filled with air and at the end, a thread is tied just to make sure that balloon doesn't loose its purpose of what it is made for. But in spite of knowing that it can be blasted with a pin, still we tie with a thread and feel balloon won't loose the air.        We can compare the trust and expectations with balloon. The thread ca...
