Be a Santa

By -
Unfair.. Why does Santa go to homes of only those who cud actually by themselves get what Santa brings them? Why does Santa not visit homes of those who actually need them? Why doesn't Santa give gifts to the poor and the drained? How could the Santa be so biased? Very unfair...

Who will get gifts to to houses where Santa doesn't go? Should the children of those houses stop believing in Santa altogether? Should they forget about and stop believing in childhood too? Take birth and take the world straight as it is. No Santa, no Christmas, and may be no God too..!!

Well this could be your chance, may be you are a Santa, may be you are God himself. You don't need to be God but you could try and be a Santa!! That's not tough. This year, let us rebuild lives. This year, let us nourish the childhood we have so fond memories of, in someone else's life too. This year let us make a child happy, let us protect childhood. This year make a child believe in Santa, by being a Santa. This year let us BE A SANTA to someone's life.

You don't have to donate money, you don't have to take out time, a small gesture of generosity will do. A chocolate to your maid's/driver's/helper's child would do, or a gratuity to a child laborer getting you samosas in the daily tea shop, whatever suits you best. And please don't forget to pass on the message to everyone around. Let us roll a movement "BE A SANTA."

Doesn't every child deserve a MERRY CHRISTMAS?

Just a thought..

A Letter to Mom by a Baby Girl

Dear Mommy, I'm in heaven now, sitting on Gods’ lap. He loves me and cries with me, for my heart is broken. I so much wanted to be your little girl. I don't quite understand what has happened. I was so excited when I began to realize my existence. I was in a dark, yet comfortable place. I saw that I had fingers and toes and I was pretty far along in my developing, yet not near ready to leave my surroundings. I spent most of my time thinking or sleeping. Even from the earliest days, I felt a special bonding between us. Sometimes I heard you crying and I cried with you. Sometimes you would yell or scream, then cry, I heard daddy yelling back. I was sad, and hoped you would be better soon. I wondered why you cried so much. One day you cried almost the entire day. I hurt for you. I couldn't imagine why you were so unhappy. That same day, the most horrible thing happened. A very mean monster came into my warm comfortable place. I was so scared, and I began screaming but there wa

THE D... my first night @hospital

By -
The ‘D’ October in Muzaffarpur was like a disease in approbation that made u dream of being under one of Alice in Wonderland skies and stuffed your nose with aroma of fresh air with a tinge of jasmine, but today it clogged his lungs and made him shudder from every nerve and sweat from every pore of his body. It was midnight and the fragrance outside didn’t seem to relieve him of the heat or humiliation within. Tonight desperation added a new element to his restless discontent. It rode his nerves like a hissing snake looking for somewhere to sink its fangs into. ‘Tapp’ fell another sweat drop on the glass of his specs. Hurriedly he took off the specs from over his big worried nose and gave another mighty push on the chest piece of the stethoscope placed on 12 year old Armaan’s chest. Shook his head in cringe. Another push… ‘Huh!!’...a sigh in guilt and he returned to his chair next to mine. Dr. R. Prasad or RP as we used to call him, from the Dept. of Emergency Medicine, was a man o

THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

By -
I have always loved her. Always. Day or night, through all seasons, from dawn to dusk and to the next dawn again, whether I am awake or sleepy, studying or partying, her love has stayed with me like some omnipresent fragrance, hypnotizing me in every moment of my day and every dream of my night. She looks so simply pretty, so unbelievably gorgeous. I’ve seen her in many disguises, she is like some royal queen in that marrige-like decked up look, and like some angel in that pretty flowy nightdress.. But she’s looked mesmerizingly pretty when she’s without make-up, careless, when she lets the lucky air play with her long hair, open and her locks growing from side of her temples. She lets a lock or two fall on her face, letting them drink from the flow of soft beauty; these locks sometimes try to kiss her lips and at others try to curtain her eyes, bathing in the cool innocence, naughtiness flowing from her eyes. Oh! And her simplicity I’ve seen her whole nights, that baby look on her fac
