Am I as important?

Yes I asked myself this question so many times while shopping with my aunty and elder sister were moving from one garment shop to another for preparing some dresses for my wedding. OH God. The occasion is expected in November. And we had been strolling for more than 3 hours in market for the prepration.Both of them; my aunty and sister were continuously talking about my dresses and the color that suit s me most. What kind of style I should follow. I myself was looking at every dress with a prospect that how it will look at me.Even when we came back from this shopping venture and were sitting at auntie’s home.my cousin brother also took part in the preparation of my dresses. He was so concerned that would suit Arooj and that wouldn’t.

I was confused whether it’s me who is important or the occasion.

‘’The moment your parents send their daughter way makes her that much important.

Though, throughout my life I have experienced sheer importance of myself in almost every kind of gathering. Yet this importance is getting bitter for me.

I don’t know why…..After sorting out this query, will soon discuss with my respected friends.

Hi,

I suppose all parents and close relatives would like the bride to be looking like an angel from heaven on the wedding day and it is not surprising that so much preparation and discussion goes on in the selection of the wedding dress. The family's prestige,pride and importance are also involved in how the daughter looks at the time of the wedding. They take so much trouble,so much time and are ready to spend huge amount of money for the wedding dress. In Kochi wedding saree show rooms are special places and always very crowded.

Best wishes,
Joseph

Enjoy. It is you that is important, but it is also easy to get lost in the importantness... if you know what I mean. Others loose you. you loose yourself.

Remember to enjoy.

H M,

It is you who is important as they are not just talking of wedding but you. Best of luck for days to come. We too had got married in Nov and it is going to be 40 years now.

Take care

Where is the climax of life?

Image
For every reader the climax of the story is the most interesting phase. This very point always remains surrounded by bulk of conflicts and burning problems, still we feel attracted ourselves towards climax. Apparently it shows that man feels conformable among challenges, but reality is something else. We want climax to get appeared because we want things to get settled. We want them to arrange themselves in rather smooth manner. We always expect that after this climax, all conflicts will be removed, problems will be solved, controversies will be erased, and exactly in the same way we want them to. But, is it really happen with the climax of life? I should have rather asked whether there exists any climax in life or not. in this real drama of life ,one can never be able to get stuck with a single climax and hope of the swaying peace afterwords, as life is an amalgam of climaxes .It deals with one conflict and keeps ready to offer another. When I was a child, I was told that after ...

Time has changed!

My often depressed looking cousin was looking more depressed last week. He was wondering around without any purpose. Then open his cupboard, and started searching for something. After a while he was sitting in front of me looking inside in his wallet and counting money inside. I asked why he is so depressed and looking at his wallet in this way. He said that few weeks back his girl friend’s friend got a latest mobile. I asked that what it has to do with him. He said that after having a look of that mobile, his girl friend is demanding for the same model as a gift on her upcoming birthday. The cell did cost pocket money of my cousin of five months (as he is a mere student so far). I just tapped on his shoulders (as a person with light pocket is not supposed to more than that) and came out of his room. So this is the mode of action of our relationships. There was a time when for a beloved a single rose presented with love and sincerity was more than everything. A lover spen...

     I just come back from my father's home.Yes;my FATHER'S HOME. Sounds weird ,a home that has been mine from the last 26 years now it is related to me just because it is owned by my father. It happens all the time,with every girl /woman.(technically a married girl is a woman yet not ready to leave the title of girl) ). But now it happened to me and I experienced how it felt.The place was like before,dressing table,book shelf, cupboard,kitchen,etc etc etc.but my things were not there.dressing table missing the shades of lipstick i usually put on as it is in the use of my sister.Besides this i have brought all the stuff with me at he time of wedding.the book shelf was getting deserted day by day as during every visit i bring one or two with me. kitchen is not ion way I used to keep it.salt,chili powder,garam masalah, turmeric powder,every thing has changed its place.ma...
