My client's mother called.....

" Raghy, I can't manage my son.. I know, I am talking about my own son... Can you manage him from now on? I am burnt...."...

I have 25 of clients like her son.... For example, I was talking to my client this afternoon.. " No, I won't give my address to you... you will get the cops on me... Raghy, I like you... I will come to the clinic to see you every time you tell me... but, I won't give my address".... It feels like I got 25 children......

I am going to cheat here... I may not post songs all the time.... it could just be a scene.... sorry....

There is something wrong with me tonight.... I seem to get attracted to scenes over songs...

I am drunk.. I can't fight it...

It's a bad idea when I feel 16 when I am 60.....

It was radio Kuwait at 11:30 AM Indian standard time....

Vijayan came to me... " Rama, listen to this Radio Kumait".... I listened... 1974? ....

You know I really don't like to see any discrepancies...... I just like to travel the next 1,000 miles in peace and quiet...

Dear Sri. Vaagmi,

I appreciate your concern. Thank you. I am delighted to see your post.

I thank you for the information about Thiruvalla. I fell in love with a ' Kavu' very long ago. In the early 1970s itself. I love that serenity even today. I will visit Thiruvalla. I also like to visit really 'not so famous' temples.... I just like to go there, sit in a corner making an attempt to join the serenity. I am planning to go to India twice next year of which I am going to go all alone in one trip. One veshti and one jippa... I will keep in touch with you.. I don't know any good temples... your direction will be valuable.. No, I am not trying to find religion; I am trying to find the heredity...

Do you know you are the first person to ask me to address my drinking? ( other than my wife Amirtha, of course..) I really appreciate it. I respect your words... From January 2018, I will give up 25% in respect of your suggestion. That is, for every 4 week ends, one will be dry.

Thank you for sharing your experience about your Upanayanam. I really enjoyed it. One of my friend's cousin had such a wonderful Upanayanam; I know, I attended it. Of course, I will never ever forget my Upanayanam.

You have been kind to me all the time. Thank you. I know it is nothing to do with Vadakalai ( I think you are a Thenkalai Vaishnava)... You know I only grew up there...

This is Friday night... night of songs... Dear Vaagmi, this is the song for you... I hope you would like this song... I usually keep my eyes closed, let the music flow in me....

Dear Raghy,

Thank you.

Now please listen to this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vt9UgG_lLHU

When you hear it don't you feel someone is wishpering that song in your ears - just one to one?

Sensitive minds are also pathetic ones because for them the pain and pleasure are always several fold enhanced because of their sensitivity.

How nice it would be to unload all the accumulated knowledge and experiences and free of those fetters, to stand near your window and enjoy the setting sun in all its red glory and be lost in it like a child. That is possible only if you have sensitivity uncorrupted by knowledge and experience and you are ready to shed tears unabashedly.

And this song also I enjoy immensely. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhLITYiC_3U

Every note and every period of silence in it make me pensive and silent lost in another world for long. That is perhaps the beauty and power of music.

Sadashiva Brahmendra has a special place in my mind. i have been wanting to visit his samadhi at Neroor near Karur for sometime now. I think I will go there after I reach back India.

Meanwhile try to stick to your promise. God bless you.
 
Dear Sri. Vaagmi,

Raghy's words are equal to any promissory note... I promised.. I give up 25%.... My wife will be intrigued.. but once she knew who I promised, then she will understand..... She had a lot of respect for you....

Where I live.... " Non Government Officers" ( NGOs) provide support to the needy persons in the community. One of clients needed NGO support.... But unfortunately he was unlikely to pass the assessment...

The co-ordinator of the NGO persons kept refusing me.... I kept trying at the rate of two to three times a week.... I didn't think it was too much to try for my client....

One of my collegues... asked me.... " Raghy, you won't give up? Would you?".....

I don't even know what giving up means.... If I want it, I will try... try.. try....

My colleague asked, " Raghy how come you keep trying?"

I said I have no shame.

My collague gave me an amazing reply......

I thanked my colleague for that great reply.... Here is the reply.. " May be u r becoming pure hearted hence u say u dont have shame"....

Thank you...

It was 1970. in " Chennai Vanoli Nilayam" every Wednesday, between 10 PM and 11 PM, there would be songs from latest movies... One great song was from the movie ' Sorgam' .... the song was 'Pon Magal Vandhal'....

My sister asked... " How much do you like?"....

I thought about and said " I want Rs.1, 500 every month!.... I want 50... no.. 100, 000 in my account.... ".. I stopped.

After 1 minute, I said " I want a big house too!"... My sister laughed.. " Okay... take some time... Tell me all the things you want"....

All the things you want...... Any body wants..... I want too....

Once every three months I submit a case review for my clients. Multi Disciplinary Professionals take part in it. Consultants, Registrars, OT, Social Workers, Psychologists.......

In my previous job, I encouraged my clients to attend.. most of them did....

One young man, very fit.. about 29 years old attended... He was very comfortable with me... I managed to unlock his inhibitions..... he just opened up... my client's name was Don....

Consultant Psychiatrist NK chaired the review....NK asked Don after many other questions... " Don have you ever felt hurting any one?"..

It was supposed to be a formality question..Don was settled.... But Don said... " yes"..

NK asked " who did you want to harm?"... Don said " Raghy.... about 1 year ago...."...NK asked " How did you want to do it?"... Don said " I wanted to stab Raghy in the kitchen with one of those long kitchen knives"....

I was asked to refer Don to put under Forensic Order.... I refused... Don recovered a lot... In the end, Don did well, kept out of trouble...

Next is a scene... not a song.

Quigley was a sharp shooter.... Sharp shooters became snipers....

So, who is a sharp shooter/ sniper?

Shooting an object 1300 meters away is a difficult task... most of us may not even see the target....

Here is Quigley...

A tribute to the late Shashi Kapoor.

A beautiful song where the tune of the 1st stanza is a slower version of the "Yellow Roses of Texas"

We make many journies...... often times, others don't know about our journies.....

Sometimes, or journies are restricted in our dreams...

One of my clients lives in the middle of the business district. Roadside parking is limited to 15 minutes max. My boss refused to pay for the parking anyway…” you are a Clinical Nurse, Raghy! Solve it!”… So, I resorted to parking at a shopping centre nearby. The trouble is, I have to validate my parking ticket… to validate, I have to buy something… 1[SUP]st[/SUP] time, I bought 2 kilos of sugar….. from the second time, I bought chocolates… But, I don’t eat chocolate.. I left them in my bottom drawer and gave it to my colleagues in my bay… then to my colleagues in my team..

Now, at my table, the bottom drawer is the” Chocolate Station”… anyone in the whole floor can get their chocolate fix at my desk… Simple rule.. I have no time; help yourself; save your thanks… Every afternoon after 3 PM all the female staff would show up… I even saw the director of Nursing helping herself..

My chocolate is the soothing music…

It was during an India trip…. We were at Mysore. So, we went to Brindavan. That was the first time for me. I went to see flowers. I enjoyed some flowers.

In Toowoomba, every year there is a competition in the last week of September.. Flower show.. The best street would get the prize…. At Toowooba at that time every where, there would be flowers.

I like soothing music and flowers… lots of flowers….

We were young. Early teen years…. My friend had a crush on a an employed girl… That was crazy.. we used to go with him to see the girl in the morning and in the evening…

I met her when I was in my early 20s… she was married.. she could not hide the humour/ pleasure.. she asked in front of her husband.. “ You had a crush on me, didn’t you?”.. I bent uncomfortably in so many places…

But it was good while it lasted though.. It seemed she liked it too…

It was like this…

“So…. What is his basic presentation Raghy?” asked the Consultant Psychiatrist “ I can’t make head or tail of his mental state”..

I said “ I met him on Monday. He is getting better”. “ If he starts talking about Allan Border of Justin Langer… I know he is unwell”..

“ Raghy, I don’t think I can endorse your way of Mental state assessment. But, I should say, your client is very unwell”..

Oh well…. Aren’t most of my clients?

" You were lean and mean when I met you. You aren't the same now!" complained my wife.

" What? my BMI is under 25! what's your problem?" I asked.

It seems she has lot of problems. Never mind..

" Who will look after us when we get old?" she asked. I said " I will look after you. I will possibly outlive you:..

She was very quiet for a long time. " Thank you" she said. I looked up. " Thank you. You said you will look after me"

" Now... who will look after you when I am gone?" asked she... I laughed....
