Y’day got up soon ,but the day did’st start as normal .... something was missing..In the morning it was cloudly and dark, it seems like a typical rainy day it would be .Bit disappointed as we had some plan to go out… thought to wait for few hours and then to take decision... finished of all house hold works…it looked like the hands of the clock is not doing his duty properly..time was moving too slow..sat in front of system surfed..but boring surfing in early morning....killed time somehow until the time peace showed 10’ o clock..It is not new for me to stay alone ..and again getting up soon was also not new..but don’t know why y'day to kill time it looked like a great task…The moment I saw 10 am in time peace I thought to call one of group to confirm the schedule…there were in all 3 groups excluding me who were supposed to meet at pre mentioned station by 2 Pm ..i called one group to confirm the schedule for exertion as my idea was may be due to weather there are chances of the trip to be cancelled..but could hear from other end..”Namma palace ke kottura mazhaila pona aalunga…kodaiye (umbrella) yeduthutta vanga…”I said fine and disconnected the call…then thought to prepare some eatable ..Indian recipe …the head count as per my knowledge was about 10..so need to prepare quite a bulk amout…as the weather was like it will rain..it was bit driznling that time..so thought to have “Onion Bajji”( tamil)..a stuff which we like to eat in rainy day..
Finished of preparation of the "bajji's"…. packed and then got set and started towards spot….Our plan was to go to a place called Inwangsa temple which is located on Mt. Inwangsan , known for its varied rock formations..T
As per plan I reached the spot though not in time but with a lag of 30 min..group-A peoples were already waiting there..yet 2 groups have to come..after waiting for about 30 min group-B also came.. one more group yet to come..we waited till 3.10 am but no trace of them..hence we planed like few people to proceed earlier towards spot remaining to follow up once group-C makkals reach the spot..I forgot to mention the day which looked as if it would rain in morning now it was just contrary.. Sun was high in the heavens…
As per plan few peoples started towards spot..the funda was no body is aware where the location in exact was just a blind guess…enquired peoples on the way and proceeded futher.. the way to inwangsan was between apartment buildings .after walking for about 10 to 15 mins..we came across Iljumun, the first gate of the temple, standing precariously on the steep mountainside. There is some story about this gate, but I don’t know what exact the story was..i came to know about this story funda as while having conversation with my colleague they said something..but i did;nt listened properly..After entering the first gate.. we found that it does not have a temple-like atmosphere but rather the feel of a mountainside old village…myself together with others were proceeding towards the spot..in between photo session was going..anga anga click..at this point I would like to thank technology so as to explore digi camera’s with which we can capture now n there what ever we feel ..ofcourse economically too…We just walked a short distance ..soon the second team joined us …Proceeded further with usual chit chat..”landhu nakkal “…The atmosphere was too calm… felt somewhat good as the environment was too peaceful.. we were heading further could find some rock on the top..the rock was named as Seonbawi rock, believed to grant wishes.. I came know about this fact only while we were on our way back to home..Previously while going ahead towards top
I could see some ladies n children were doing some sort of pray ..so do I too did.. time gap la wished there ..”vittarvoma enna…”let me see if my wish come true…as wish should not be revealed till it comes true so let me wait till my wish coems true..;) ;)
Futher we walked for about 1 hr ..all were bit tired ..stopped at a place .. thought to have the stuffs which i prepared n got it..i was not aware of other item which was hiding inside the bag.. it was “small kara murukku”( tamil)..the place where we stopped was just behind the rock of wishes i.e "Seonbawi rock".. could find lots n lots of pegions ..shared the stuffs with that too ..had a photo session there ..after finsiing of things got proceeded futher could find in trees some ribbon sort tied ..my guess was it might be same as that of our Indian tradition ..some sort of wish ..told to my friend reg that....later heard from my colleague i.e today during discussion that Even to this day, peoples visit the rock to make wishes. As many childless women in particular visit the rock, Seonbawi rock is also called 'Gijaam', meaning 'rock where one wishes for a child' and other wishes too…
We were heading further when we saw wrist watch it was 6pm so plan to return back...”Pichae mud”’( turn back) started towards subway..the enthu which we had while climing up was lost while coming down..after that done some shopping ..during shopping could find a wine shop..it was looking great with all light effects..captured that too in digi…as in my digi battery was exhausted asked murugan to do.. followed by which had dinner…again treat ..thanks to yuva and vijay who were kind enough to offer us treat..finished off dinner and started towards home…back home... again in routine something missing.. ……….after about 6 years I chatted with my class mate..had nice time with her..finished fo chatting midnight 1 and gone to bed.. again today .. week started….planning for a rafting soon..here is some of snaps taken that day…

I generaly follow eat first rest next..so here goes bajji !!



Firt Gate !!


Wish rock !! ..ok now make wish ;);)
















Pegions ..avanga rajjiyam thaan !!










Wine shop were we stopped to take picture....the effect is not as real..wondering how many bottles at a most a person can have at a time..???

I was sitting in a train, waiting for it to start. Near me sat a small gal and her mother, she was asking questions as children do...her mother was keep answering her question ..myself sitting near them and listening to their talks ..
Gal asked her mother, "amma train yeppo start aagum?"
mother said, "The train will start when we start pushing."
The child opened his big eyes in surprise, "nejama?" "Of course," She said. "Unless we push, it doesn't start."
"appo vanga thallalam," gal exclaimed.
"Just a minute," mother said. "The passengers are not all on. I'll tell you when to push."

Mother watched for the signal light at the station and heard the station master's shrill whistle. Then she told the gal, "Now! Push for all you'r worth."

The gal and her mother started to push in the direction of the engine. They pushed and pushed against the back of the seat .... and soon a contented smile lit up the Gal's face. The train was moving ... very slowly at first, but then gaining speed little by little....
Her mother congratulated the lad on her success. "We DID it! We DID it! She said..

"haiyya train pogudhu" she exclaimed. The Gal looked immensely pleased with herself. Her mother did not have the heart to tell him about the monstrous engine chugging up in front. Eventually the gal would find out for herself with time..

Would like to tell another incident which took place about 7 years before when I was doing my gradutation… During those days after college myself and my sister used to take tuition …lots of children used to come ..in those group of children there was one boy named Karthik..he was our neighbor's boy..

One Sunday evening though it was off day for tuition too but as karthik was having examination next day so unique class was arranged for him on his parent request..
I could remember well I was taking science subject and he has to memorize some animals name…but karthik was not at all interested to study on that day..
Niether I was able to make him study as in case if i say something karthik would say just opposite to resist it..
To have some break thought to divert from subject .. hence started to talk about issues other than subject
I said, " karthi periya aal aagi nee enna pannuva." ( with some excitement)
“nan vandi otuvain” karthik said..
( I don’t know what to say next) ..again
I said, " sari karthi nee neraya mark vangune na class la ellam clap pannuvangala."
“yenaku clap onnum vaindam”he said..
Again to say something …
I said ” karthik nalla padikanum ..nee sikirama padichitain na akka choclate tharuvain”
“yenaku choclate onnum vaindam”He said
That small boy has decided not to study …after struggling with him for about 1 hour I lost my patience and called my sister..my sister used to beat children quite good..”nalla vangunna from her” after that also “tas se mas aagala” he was same as previous..atlast we failed and asked to go to his home..
After lots of efforts we managed to make him to come to track because of his parents request..
Later due to lack of time we had to stop tuition.... most parents came and requested to continue tuition but we have no other go other than to say sorry to them..
That boy who used to speak so much when he was kid is just opposite now he has become quite calm ..
If we analyse children activities we can find variety of behavior… no need for special attention ..then n there we can notice it..
whatever it is kids have their own world..the most excellent stage which we pass through… If we have some time machine ....i am sure most would love to go back to their childhood days..again to go back is mere an imagination..the bitter fact.....


Previous->>

Two weeks before some of my friends planed for a day out...It happned that I was not able to join them ..as a normal practice they uploaded the photos taken on proposed day and floated to all in the group. As being member of the group could get the photo link...
Being weekend now and in my database no new movies to watch ...was feeling bit bore hence thought to have look to the photo link send by them ... in addition to that some other animated forwards which I would maintain for such instances and use eventually …yet I have not referred where they planned for outing ..yes they planned to visit one of the recreation park here...soon after the thought browsed my Inbox got the link mail and with a click to the link started to look after the photos…photos were good..by seeing the photo could guess they njoyed lot..after few more clicks saw a photo which made me to write this…can you guess what that snap might be.. mm it was a photo of a deer behind the bars …soon after seeing the photo the word which hit my mind was FREEDOM..will the deer not be longing for freedom?????




As humans we can imagine what is wrong about withholding freedom from other people… When a child is born.. birth is the first step on the way to freedom… His/her upbringing would hopefully prepare him/her to function freely as an adult later in life....
Human Freedom !!.. is a means and an end to a meaningful life of an animal….. the respectable name given for that is ZOO.. …
The place where animals are discarded from their freedom.... , zoos are cruel because the animals freedom is restricted…. Another argument against zoos is that they take many animals away from their natural habitat but, as many zoo animals were born in captivity, they do not suffer as they have never known their natural habitat….

We normaly hear about zoo in tv channels or can read articles in paper, net etc..once I heard in tv one zoo person said: " Animals are better off in zoos than there natural habitat..
We want people to go away inspired and having had some real connection with the natural world." … where visitors can check out birds and reptiles as well….
so the cost of for human being awareness is animals freedom?//

Also heard from another zoo spokesman his statements were like ..animals in zoos are much better off, healthier and live longer than animals in the wild… In the wild, carnivores live off herbivores…. All animals are very vulnerable when newly born and unable to run away to safety with their parents or herds... Predators who live by hunting often go without food for many days and some die of hunger or thirst…This does not happen in zoos. Animals are provided with food of their liking at fixed hours in their enclosures as guests in a hotel get room service…. Neither they nor their young are at the mercy of predators….

I consider there is not much difference between animal and humans ..we are also animals …. We differ from other species of life in as much as we can think better because we have bigger brains and can convert our thoughts into speech…. And we talk a lot of the virtues of freedom to live as we like and say what comes to our minds…. Our mottos are” freedom or nothing"…"give me liberty or death” and some other noble-sounding sentiments….then y not animals..it is because they can’t speak ..??
Ok let us take a case where some person provided with an well off facility ..say the person is XX( so called later)....ok let it be like well-kept jails. There XX don’t have to worry about where the next meal will come from; it is provided free of charge . XX don’t have to worry about the property or business or about murders or robberies. Support for suitable clothing is available , given time to take exercise and after doing chores assigned to XX ,he is free to socialise with other inmates, play games or read books. In case if XX fall sick, there is a doctor at his back a call to the prison hospital .. XX back to good health. Medical services and medicines are also free. So in this case wil XX be happy to choose this life..as the basic need for human is food,cloth ..more than the basic need is provided to him in the jail….so . Which world would XX choose? And why?

In Zoo visitors have a fascination with throwing stones, nails and other objects at the animals, poke them with sticks, tease them, feed them cigarettes and anything they can find.
I remember somewhere I read Humans are cruel and ruthless.. "The wildest character on earth is the human being. If you want to see civilization, go to the jungle..
So if given the choice of living in freedom in the wild or living in security provided by zoos .. which one would any animal prefer???????

Today is a sacred festival of Rakhi / Raksha Bandhan.(Raksha -> protection n Bandhan ->tie or some knot).. as of all festival this too have some ancient story after it .Long time back there was some battle between gods and demons, and Indra (the king of the gods) was feeling depressed during battle. At that time Indra’s wife Sachi took a thread, charged it with sacred verses or Mantras for protection and tied it on Indra’s hand. Through the strength of this thread Indra conquered his enemies. Since then till today this festival is celebrated.
Through the passage of time festivals are undergoing modifications. Raksha Bandhan is also known as Rakhi. Rakhi has become a sacred festival for sisters and brothers. Sisters tie them to brothers. Priests tie them to people of his congregation.

History also says in those days, many Rajputs sacrificed their lives to protect their spiritual sisters. Humayun received a Rakhi from the queen Karmavati of Chittor and for that, Humayun carried out his sacred brotherly duty and protected her by opposing his own soldiers.

According to ancient traditions, it is customary to have protection threads that are charged with sacred verses (Mantras) and sanctified with rice, durva grass etc.; to have these tied by people who know the Vedas or by near and dear ones. This protection thread saves from sins on the one hand and removes diseases on the other hand. By tying this thread, protection is afforded for a full one year and all kinds of fears are removed.

Nowadays Rakhis are decorated with soft silky threads of various colours, and also with ornaments, pictures, gold and silver threads etc. These Rakhis enhance the artistry of the people. Within these Rakhis reside sacred feelings and well wishes. It is also a great sacred verse of unity. Acting as a symbol of life's advancement and a leading messenger of togetherness.

Dunno about the history whether it is true or not but I belive in this “bandhan” as the ritual not only strengthens the bond of love between brothers and sisters, but also transcends the confines of the family.
It’s been almost 3 years I had tied raki to my brother on this day ..though not in Rakhi day but would do later when we meet and get my quota of money from him..again amount wil be minimum but “athula ora santhosam” (feel happy )to get from him..
My thambi is last in the hierarchy in our family so konjam “chellam “ to us.. I still remember my school days..my brother was so small ..so small, hand ..we used to get up in morning ..make arrangement for puja. Not much just rakhi with diya( vezhakku) and some sweet in a plate in front of swamy..in turn would take “aarthi” and put tika(pottu) with" vibudhi" in his forehead.. then tie rakhi ...that small hand would be covered with rakhi..and he used to go to school as it is..This process started when he was studing in Ukg .. earlier he used to give 2 Rs to us. With time the amount changed but not much but raised to some 20 Rs..though quite a small amount but stil would feel too happy to get that amount from him..with passage of time as all are scattered for job,studies ..just missing the day very much …today in this rakhi day I got up early did puja ..prayed for him..called him early in morning at around 4.30 morning ..disturbing his sleep..asked for gift.. his dialog was
Thambi:” kuduthutta pochi.” After some more talk ..
Thambi:“kya mae kama raha hoon ?” ( am I earning)
Myself: u shud save from your pocket money and shud give to us also I added will get the money when I am back to home..
Thambi: said ok..
Followed by some more talks …
with that when I saw my watch it was 9 am ..winded of the talk saying usual slogan..."Thambi pad thambi................."the moment i start the first word ..he would complete the rest and starts lauging ka ka ka kah…as I would repeat the same each n every time when ever I call..still I repeat the same things.. after finishing off my standard statements detached the call saying have to rush to office..routine day started then….

Aasaiye alai pole,
Naamellam athan mele,
Odam pole adiduvome vaazh nalile
Paruvam ennum kaatrrile
parakkum kaathal therile
aanum pennum mahizhvar
suham peruvar - athisayam kaanpaar
Naalai ulahin paathaiyai inre
yaar kaanuvar?

With passions as waves
we dance like the boat
in our passage of life
With the wind of youth,
by flying in the chariot of love,
man and woman make merry, enjoy
and surprise themselves
but who can guess tomorrow's path
today itself?

Vazhvil thunbam varavuu
suham selavu, iruppathu kanavu

Y’day after work saying bye to all started to home..took elevator came to ground floor..after coming down I could find it is too cloudy and looks like it will rain shortly…just was thinking to go back and get umbrella from office..it was in my cabin.... “aana somberithanam yara viduthu”…shh laziness played there..changed my mind and thought to walk with big steps and reach home before the rain can overtake myself..but it happened other way..i had just passed one crossing..it started to drizzle .. drops were quite big…was waiting in another crossing for signal in that while it started to rain heavly all of sudden…stil waiting for signal..one gal was kind enough to share her umbrella with me ..may be she felt pity on me…crossed the passage her way was just opposite to my way..she said bye and me with a smile thanked her for the help ..then started to run..the rain was too heavy..so thought to take cab..took cab reached home.. .. the very same happened some two days before .. the only difference was I did’nt took any cab that day ..instead gave company to rain… so can find symptoms of cough and cold..hence thought to take some medication .. took paracetamol ..at times I become self Dr ha ha..
Then started with daily routine..put “darna” infront of system…started surfing.. yahoo mail alert was on duty n did his work with an alarm generated by a sound …Dasssssssssssssssss in addition to pop up on monitor..checked the mail it was from my friend….Officialy in some concern chatting is prohibited so in that case we use mail as chat ..may be if company get news about this they may forbid mail also ;) ;)
So started the chat for the day in mail..In the meantime..my classmate also came in yahoo messenger..chatted with her too…she came to cafe after long..we chated for few minutes and then she asked me to wait for a while as she need to check her mails..i said ok..again continued chatting in mail.. as reply will not be immediate in mail chatting as in case of messenger…sitting in front of system is not necessary. outside I could hear thunder sound...kada boda kada boda.. so went to the gallery and opened the window to observe the rain….was viewing outside I could hear mail alert noise ..returned back to seat..Replied to mail …by that time my classmate also was back to chat..chatted with her..she told about other makkals whom she met recently in her Bangalore trip….after chatting for more then 1 hr she left ..still mail chatting was going .. again could hear thunder sound so moved my eyes from monitor and looked towards the balcony window..suddenly I could notice a creepy-crawly near the door..as for me the size of that creature was somewhat big..about 5 t6 7 cm.. that’s it I was nto able to concentrate in any other work..my eye my brain everything was diverted towards that insect..that insect was bit strange..the appearance of it is to some extent bear the resemblance to cockroach but it is not cockroach....may be cousin of it ;)... generally I dare to face things but in front of cockroach,rat especially lizard my brain will not work and I will become to restless ..if it would be the case in my home “avalvu thaan” I would be running here n there..atlast would go inside one room and will close the door..till the insect is cleared from the other room…this clearing work is generally done by my sister or my brother..here no other go I have to find some solution for this great danger which has come like “yaman” and standing in front of me..
Thought for while appo thaan could recollect one song which I was hearing just before seeing that creature.. ( check If u have real player installed in your system ..if no click here..
If u wish to hear the song ..here it goes.... click here ..too much o..ana enaku ella...;)
Then made some courage and went to other room got towel just was waving to it thinking it will go out of room..but it happened other way..instead of going out it jumped towards me..”ayyo ammo..”..i was screaming..then controlled myself keeping my hand to my mouth..soon after that in fear i went out of that room closed the door of that room..then closed my bedroom door also ..was taking all sort of precautious measure so that the insect shud not enter my bedroom in any case…my heart was beating lup tup lup tup…again made guts opened the closed door peeped inside the room ..i could’t trace the insect where it was before…then I looked over walls ,roof stll could’nt find..feeling some what relaxed I entered checking where abouts of that insect.. I could find that insect below the system table..In the mean time I also heard buzz sound ..just checked who is that..that was my sister..i was 3 feet from the table and between myself and the table there was chair which was acting like a protection …if in case the insect which was lying below the table jumps…without disturbing it I chatted with my sister from about 3 feet distance ..but suddenly net got stuck..i tried for some 30 min situation was same....
If I could find some strange creature or things i normaly caputure it..also for long I did;nt use my digi..so thought to caputure that creepy-crawly ..but “manasu la ora bayam” in flash light if it jumps toward me na..with full precautious measure I managed to capture that insect..then again I closed the door of the room where the insect was ruling as king …and gone to sleep..i got 2 times in middle to check if it is still lying there or moved some other place..but that fellow creature..”tas se mas agala”..it was in same place..morning I gathered all guts and thought to kill it…. took my umbrella and was about to throw on it..then thought “ kalangathala y to do some kolai”..thought will do later ..finished off my other works followed by puja when I came back to the room ..it was gone..may be due to sunlight it might gone ..but I still don’t know where it has gone..or whether stil inside the room somewhere..”ore murmam thaan.”.seems to be silly..but "enna panna..next time vida matain..."any how escaped from doing some”kolai/pavam”…..

here is the one with whom i had encouter

After staying for about 2 months in Chennai was returning back home..wondering y I stayed in Chennai romba onnum ella ..was posted as “Vetti officer for past 2 months” and was going for vacation ha ha..still did’nt get ??..was searching job and was returning back home to take a break..ha ha.. Now if I think about those days will grin for a while appadi ora life ..but those times where too hard time for me..sari ora flash back aa podalam..
After lot of struggle I got permission from appa for hunting job at Chennai .planned to stay at my cousin’s home…software market those days was getting down day by day..hunting job was very difficult those days . …still ora “alpasai..velai kedachirom nu..”with bit fear also bit confidence started towards Chennai thinking will sure can end up with some job with in one month…Reached Chennai as per planned stayed at my cousin’s home..Those day standard routine of mine would be morning getting up ..putting “kolam” as my cousin would be busy with cooking breakfast and lunch for her hubby..followed by “chillara works” ..i.e to help her in cooking cutting ,washing etc..after that would give a quick look to paper followed by which would make calls if any contact number mentioned in advertisement else would proceed towards the mentioned spot of walkin’s with a copy of resume and attend Interview..
This schedule I used to follow most of the day during my stay at Chennai..attimes if very tired would take leave..ha ha leave without any prior permission....Some of my college mate’s were in Chennai they were working with some software concerns...during Sunday’s we used to have get together...During one such get together my classmate Padma introduced her school mate Yuktha..similarity between myself n Yuktha was we both from same place..she also came to Chennai for hunting . hence from that day I got some company for searching ,which is better then searching alone.. we used to start in morning and return back in evening..mostly lunch would be skipped.. Days were moving and the “Dabbu” with me was keep reducing..after struggling for 2 month we were frustrated and at last we thought to give up…went to Chennai central got ticket reserved for the return back to home town…
That time I was in touch with my sister friend who was working in satyam..ora alpasai thaan may be he might help to get a job..when we planned to move back thought to inform him..so called n did the same..he was also from my hometown .His parents and wife were staying there .He asked a favor from me ..generally if any one ask any favor wil try as much to help them He want me to take one printer and hand over to his wife .I winded up the conversation that day on phone saying will collect the printer on the journey day itself some hour prior to the scheduled departure time..
Journey day came and packed everything “ennatha periya packing ..yetho did.”.the train depature time was 12.30 pm( appadi nu I was thinking later came to know it was 12.20pm) ..i started by 9 and by 10 reached the station was waiting for Yuktha at station. Our plan was to meet at station at 10.30 and then after passing my baggage to her to start towards T.Nagar and get that printer and back by 12pm i.e half n hour before the scheduled time.Was waiting at station ..waited waited .. she didn’t turned up till 10.50Am..again waiting at the platform looking towards entrance gate..suddenly I could hear a sound excuse me..” konjam endha bag aa parthakareengala.. nan poi sapatta vandhurain…” said one person. ..
Usualy I don’t talk much to strangers if I am putup alone but this guy seems to be bit moderate by look ..
Myself- Sorry I will be moving soon so better ask someone else..
Stranger: Neenga yevalavu neram irupeenga..
Myself: Nan friendkaga wait pannarain so once she come we will move..
Stranger: sari if u move pls ask your friend to look at the baggage with requested tone…
Myself: ennda vamma pochi( thinking in mind) ..and I asked neenga enga poreenga and how u are leaving your baggage to a stranger whom u don’t know.. "eppalam kalam romba ketta kedakku".. ( time gap la oru advice to him ;)"
Stranger: I am working in military now I am going to my hometown for vacation.ungala partha cheat pannura mari theriyala…
Myself: (Militarykum enakum ora link mari ..i like that milatry envornment,……)
His look also seems that he is not lieing. .i mean his hair style… I said ok I will look at his baggage ..stil had some fear..”andha bag la yedhachi irukumo … bom vom” ha ha
that military guy then proceeded towards gate and soon Yuktha also came..
Yenna Yuktha evalavu late aa varura ..asked to her ..when I saw my watch time was 11Am ..gave the bag to her explained about that military guy and asked to give the bag to him once he comes…and I started with big steps towards local train platform …got ticket ..”ennoda neram train varura mari ye theriyala” ..waited for few min ..caught the train reached T.Nagar by 11.30am.. made call to my sister friend ..he asked me to come to his company to get the printer. sari nu I took auto reached his office ..I have not seen him prior. one person with a bigshopper bag came..guessed might be the same person for whom I am waiting for..took the bag ..just said ok I wil pass the thing to your home ,bye(did'nt bothered to talk more as no time )..... took auto reached station(T nagar ) ..i was just speeding up..no energy also to run as not had breakfast in morning…the moment I entered the staion and walkign towards stairs of overpass.. just one train left..adada ..missed it..waited for few min..meantime thinking if I could not catch train what will I do..as all my belongings even money in the bag which I left with my friend ..too tensed…next train came ..got into it which was moving towards Egmore station..was looking watch every 1 min… reached Egmore station by 12.18pm..was bit relaxed thinking train is only at 12.30 so some 10 min to go for depature and i have to cross the overpass which will hardly take some 2 to 3 mins…in the mean time I could find some people running towards the platform …also could hear some signal sound…thought may be for some other train….suddenly I could notice they all running towards the train which has arrived at the same platform where I have to go i.e the train which I have to catch..apparom enna .me also started running..Almost all my energy was exhausted and no energy to climb the steps and follow overpass path… used shortcut method..to cross ..adhe dhaan crossing the track…crossed the track reached the platform..one person asked “ enna train la poganuma… I said XXX”.. he said “sikaram signal potachi ..yedhachi ora compartment la yeriko next station poi change panniko..” i even don’t know the reservation details as ticket was with Yuktha..but could rem the compartment tag S6..usualy S6 will be at other of engine…I got into the immediate compartment near the engine..that happened to be unreserved..and there was no connection to other reserved compartment…I neither know whether Yuktha has boarded the train or not…one thinking if she has not boarded the train I even didn’t had enough money to pay fine in case caught by TT ..not giving much importance to my thoughts got down the unreserved compartment ..by that time train has started moving slowly…ran bit fast with the printer bag in hand…and somehow got into reserved compartment…bit worried and thinking if yuktha has boarded the train or not..proceeded further towards S6…asking the passenger now n there” edhu enna compartment” when I just reached S3 ,I could find the same military guy who I met in the morning at station who has asked to take care of his baggage. .seeing me he asked “Ennanga evalavu sekaram vandhuteenga”…I did'nt bother to reply him instead asked him whether my friend in this train..he said ya she is in train and he was coming to check me if bychance I had boarded the train or not…abbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaaa..got relaxed…my heart was was running lup tup with the speed same as that of jet plane…when I heard that Yuktha has boarded it was like sudden brake…then went towards my seat….met her…that military guy place was in some other compartment..he just came to offer help both ..as we did the same to him earlier..he went to his seat after talking for a while with us.. atlast reached hometown though jobless…..

Y’day was talking to my friend she was saying something which made me to write this..
Day started normal for her ..but she don’t know y she was bit upset..something deep inside some fear..some thing making her upset..did’nt bother much she started for usual day..came to office involved in her work ..if we involve in one thing we forgot the other issues..around afternoon again no mood to work..not able to concentrate in work.. now the unwanted issues taken the priority and thinking was diverted from work and moved towards some other issue…
She made herself cool thinking of the some words which now and there she used to chat with her friends… one of those sentence was
life is like a butterfly u wont get it ...when u are going behind it
but u will be surprised ... at times unexpectedly it comes and sits in your lap..
Some how she killed time went home..started to listen songs..and was thinking about something …It happened that I interrupted her and chatted with her..we were discussing about “Feelings” ..It was my turn to answer ..” Nalla kadiye pottain”..like

We human being feel happy if we get what we expect and we feel good..if we don’t get what we expect we feel bad..This feeling varies at various stages…
For a kid if he gets toy he feel good..if he don’t get he started cring..
For a school children if he gets good mark he is happy if he don’t get good mark he feel for it.. The list is endless..so feelings varies with time ,age and state,stage etc…but y do we feel good/bad beign aware of the thing that it is "life" ..may be because we are human being…I feel like it can be avoided by
1. Not to take things into granted.
2. Dont involve much with the things which are not confirmed.
Hence Expect the unexpected and accept the life as it comes…Also remember “yedhu nadakanamo athu nadandae theerum and yethu nadaka kudatho athu nadakadhu”…
After chatting reg this topic for a while ..we changed our chatting topic thinking enough analysis about feelings..for u also enough reading get back to work he he..yeppadi konnutaina

It was during month of august once talking over phone to my parents , got the great news about my sister wedding.yeah the time came of my sister wedding and the date for the wedding was confirmed in the month of oct.As it was the first auspicious function in my family and me away from home country so I planned to take vacation and visit India in a short trip..
Project here was in in peak and getting leave in this period was bit difficult unless and until I complete my module.As I had decided to go to India in any case so started to work bit hard .. irrespective of week end ,holiday and atlast completed my module and ofcourse boss was happy and got permission for vacation.
Followed by which I started preparation to go to India.As that time I was going for my personal work so no sponser of ticket from company.I have to put ticket from my pocket.. After enquiring with some airlines I decided to go for some cheap airlines irrespective of the comforts during journey. The airlines which I choosen was flying through Singapore thought to drop my friend’s home at Singapore.This schedule was only in mind and not the confirmed one.probability was also there to skip it.Due to hectic work I did’nt get any time to visit Singapore embassy and get advance transit visa for Singapore.Though I mailed my friend will drop to their home incase if get transit visa at Singapore.
Days passed and the day of journey came.That day I was carring over weight n I was well aware of it …went to check in counter did the checkin ..some how managed with out fine.was happy thinking about it .started towards security check and was caught there they asked to weigh the hand baggage and I went to do the same..the weight was bit over than the allowed one ..on request they said though they cannot allow in cabin baggage but will put in checkin instead..i too agreed for it….
again was bit relaxed and cleared security check followed by which boarded flight ..had food n gone to "swarg log.".the same day evening landed at Singapore..enquired about my baggage to the airport authorities ..they told baggage will be automatically directed to the connecting flight i.e towards India ..hence I proceeded towards immigration to give a try to get transit visa…the Q was quite small.. my turn came soon..Upon asking about transit visa..the lady in immigration first refused to give visa..then don’t know what she thought ..she stamped my pp for visit pass and said next time I have to take the visa in advance..i nodded my head and said “ fine sure I will do ..thanks “…
That was first time I landed in Singapore..not much aware of things there …I looked for some public phone to call my friend and inform about my arrival there ….was just searching some shop to get phone card but I noticed that public calls are free for the passengers..called and informed them…by that time it was 8 pm..too tired also too hungry..Just was waiting in the arrival terminal and was searching for burger king or mcdonalds..could’nt find any..soon my friend came..went to home..i was welcomed by the papa.., anni and anna ..had good dinner.."oru pidi pidichachi"…after dinner talked with anna n anni for long….my flight was next day morning..Thinking that there is no check in issues I thought it is enough to be at airport just 30 min prior..and did the same..got my boarding pass went inside the security check..it was 9.00am when i entered the security check gate..flight take off time was 9.30am…they asked to go for baggage identification ..down near cargo where they were loading the baggage….i went down but could find only one box..other box was missing.. I told the same to them and asked about the second box..they asked to wait for a while and then they talked over wireless..In the beginning I was cool thinking baggage might be some where there and will get it .. ..i was waiting near flight cargo ..too hot and it was too noisy . still standing waiting for baggage..just a thought came in mind about the past i.e my college days if i would have selected either for pilot or ground duty officer i would have done same sort of work.."time gap la ora dreams"..it was interruped by officer.. they searched for 20 min but could'n get trace of baggage hence they said ok it is time for flight take off and aksed me to board the flight..” ennada ithu nu” I thought I asked about my baggage and told unless I get my baggage I will not move anywhere. after some 5 min tug off with ground duty officer....they asked to go and meet the manager and talk further about that..so came up and was standing on the entrance of the flight..already flight take off was delayed by 5 mins..they asked to board the flight..again same tug off between myself ,manager ,cabin crew and other authority ..” where is my baggage how it is missed”blah blah ..they said they will check…..for a while in enthu I told ok I will take next flight ..and asked about the next flight timing..there was no immediate flight ..so again changed mind..thinking “if the baggage has to reach it will reach in anycase”..as already they searched and they doubt it was missed at the destination.it was 10am when i saw my watch while talkign to them... half an hour delay in flight takeoff.. one of the cabin crew person seems to be tamil.. he said “ sari ma enga irundhalum onnum prayoganai ella..better to go at Chennai and report there..all passenger are waiting for flight takeoff ..n he requested to board..” sari nu I boarded the flight…my place was some where in last..but as the flight tookoff immediately I entered flight Air hostes asked to sit in the place which was vacant…my bad luck played there also..that place was in front of rest room..abba so irritating it was sitting in that place..no other go adjusted ...all my thinking was will I get the baggage..some gifts ,chocolates my camera accessories all were in that baggage..while thinking that got sleep ..reached Chennai… was waiting at baggage collection section ..aah ethu enna I could find my baggage which was missing at Singapore…got relaxed thinking the second one would also definitely come as I had identified that other at Singapore..aana again bad luck..this time the one which I identified at singapore has not come…actually what happened was during my tug off between manager when I told I will take next flight they asked shud they remove the baggage already in cargo ..i said ok..after that I changed my mind and time span was very less so they forgot to upload again into cargo..
At Chennai I went to "Lost Baggage Reporting" counter and waited for 30 minutes before they answered. They said, i had to go slightly outside the airport and talk to the Air-India enquiry counter. i said, thanks and went to the counter outside the Baggage terminal
In the counter, there was one lady, writing a voucher like form.I told about about the same She asked me to go enquire in the "Lost Baggage Reporting" counter..I was bit frustrated the way they behaved so thought to call home and talk..i called home talked at home. informed about the baggage loss..they said no need to worry try my best else its ok..again went to “Lost Baggage Reporing “ counter..gave the complain in written..they said with in one day it will reach my home town..
Anyway, i went through immigration and took my baggage(got), making guesses that the baggage(lost) will reach safely and caught Domestic flight reached home.
After reaching home next morning I tried to call Air-India office at the phone number that is printed on the envelope that came with the tickets.All the lines were engaged .. i tried to call the Air-India for almost 2 days but nobody was lifting the phone. Once, somebody lifted and said, it was lunch time and asked me to call again. After that, I have tried very hard and it was always busy. Then somehow got line when i asked y the number were always busy to my surprise, she said, some flight came late today and because of that they kept 2 phones out of hook, making them look busy. Is it the problem with the people or the system of guaranteed job security? Does this call for privatising the Air-lines and making our lives better?
When asked about the missed baggage they said it has already reached Mumbai n will reach my hometown next morning..i was bit happy thinking it will be reaching next day..i waited from morning to evening fro baggage but it again did’nt come..upon calling again they said sorry it is still in Singapore and some baggage problem I have to pay some excess baggage charge..i don’t know what to do..the excess baggage charge was quite big amount….then I called my friend at singpore and asked to enquire about the same..with his great help the baggage reached India after 15 days when I was about to start back …In the mean time marriage function and all were over..it was bitter experience in my life in between a happy occasion..
