Reason , season and evergreen

There are 3 types of people.

People for a reason, a season and forever.

People for a season:

There are few people whom stay with us for a short span. Perhaps it may even be a day, like a co passenger in train, a person next to you in a long queue. We speak well with them. We share much without even knowing that we are sharing our much with held secrets to them. We realise it after opening up everything to them. The journey would end so soon that we forget to take their phone number or mail ids. And however hard you try, you cannot get in touch with few. They are people for a season. Very few people from this category tend to remind in our memories forever.Though physically they are not with us, the short span of memories we shared with them remains long.

People for a reason :

There are people whom we meet accidentally. In fact, in the first meet we do not get close nor get much intimacy. As days pass by, they become connected to us almost in every phase of life after that. They Aid- and- abet us so much at whatever we do. Suddenly they move away from our life after a point of time.

In few cases, we try hard to hold that person. We put in all the efforts to make them stay in our life. Even after trying so much, phase comes where we ourselves let the person move out of our life. Don’t worry. Even if you hard tried hard, they would have left one day or the other. Don’t Panic. They are people who are for a reason. Life has to go on. You can lament but nothing can be changed. Accept the reality and live the present.

People forever :

Wow! They are the people who do not go out of your life even when you push them out J.They are evergreen. They stay connected to you wherever they are. Even when life has taken you in two varied paths, they stay connected and remain close. Be thankful for such persons. They will be for you always.

I’ve spoken only about positive people. I mean people who made you smile, tease, laugh . Am speaking about people who gave energy , enthusiasm, life , cheer and joy. This category equally applies to the negative people. I do  not want to  think about them nor discuss here. Let’s ignore them.

Today, spend quite some time to think about people-

Whom you have lived with throughout your life     and also about

People who have added life to your living.

Live in the Present. No doubt! But once in a while, recall the past.

Where do memories go when relationship dies?  Search for them.

Write me about this post. How it made you think.

I would love to know them from you.

Raksha Bandhan

“The construction of a house in neighbourhood was going on last year too. I made a bungalow out of the sand used there and my brother knocked it down and I knocked my brother down and then we had tea together.”

Brothers are special gift of God. Especially if you are a girl, having a Brother means having a lifetime gift. From my childhood, I have been sharing so many childhood memories with my Brothers. If you are regular reader of my blog you would have known this by now.

My brothers are sweet and always ready to fight. We have fought with each other so much. My brother has even shown me the tip of the death. (Risk ellam enakku rusku saapudra madhiri:-P). With those fights comes the bonding. The bonding of love & Care.

My brothers are everything to me. They play the role of my friends, my father & mother (in some instances) , my competitor , my teacher, my companion, and also body guards J . Am so much indebted to all the love they shower on me.

When I meet new people I tend to call them as “Anna” –Brother. I feel it as a word of warmth. Not everyone knows the power / meaning of that word. Many don’t deserve that word. As I grew up I realised this , and from then I don’t call new people with that word. Only when I really feel the affection they give I use the word “Anna” to call them. Today I can say that everyone whom I call so shares a special bonding with me.

They encourage me so much. They support me in everything I do. They stood by me in all my difficult times. They understand me better than my Parents.

Brotherhood is something which everyone cannot get. I am indeed lucky to have so many brothers in my life. Each one has a special place for me in their hearts and I do have special place to each one of them. To all my brothers, Happy Rakshabandhan !!  I wish them to have all the joys of the world.

Planning a Tour

            Do you know how much difficult it is to plan a tour ? That too when it involves 10 to 15 people.  Day have to be convenient, dates have to be well planned, place plays a very important role and last comes the budget.

            In many instances family tour becomes inevitable. But tour with friends is a mere choice where we never feel like using the option “NO”. As I always say, friends share the same wave length. Even if not same, they love adjusting for each others.

            If one friend drops there are so many chances that other frogs also drop their plans L . It is really tough to keep all people intact. Each person’s opinion has to be considered in every matter and majority wins in almost all instances.

            Once we start to plan a tour we should be prepared to hear a ready “NO” from few. A ready “Yes” from many. But as the plan continues with discussion on date and number of days people tend to drop the plans. They start remembering other commitments which earlier they forgot. They start prioritising other occasions than the tour. Some emergencies arises which do not let people to proceed as they wish. Finally when we count the number of people it’ll be 2 to 4. @ would be people who organise the tour (as they themselves cannot drop) and other 2 would be lovely hearts who wish to be by the side of organisers.

            Somehow after convincing everyone who is about to drop the plan, the date and day undergoes so many changes. Here booking the means of conveyance and place of stay cannot be pre planned as the tour itself will not be finalised till last 2 days.

            So after planning all the other itenaries – places to visit in the location selected has to be planned. Kilometers has to be known, time has to be calculated and weather has to be analysed. Possibility of rains and storms may spoil the entire plan. After this the starting point has to be decided when each friends are put up at different cities. Travelling has to be planned from a single location otherwise the fun element would be lost. There is no point in asking everyone to report to the tour spot themselves. So that travel to a centre spot has to be taken care off , from various cities.

            No one’s feelings should be hurt. One cannot dominate  all others. No one should feel out of place. All these really matters for the success of the tour. People who owns this nature must be chosen for the trip. Odd men should be left out.

            This is how a tour is organised. It is not a piece of cake to easily bake. It demands so much of patience, enthusiasm, responsibility and co-operation, support from many. All these were undergone by us.  We dropped the entire plan and again rebuilt the plan. At last we successfully made a trip to coorg for 2 days with 11 people.

Dear all  members of the tour- let’s say

Hip Hip Hurray!!
