Nine at night is the right time for all domestic troubles to flare up - especially those involving children.

Whether they are a hindrance to the parents who want some time of their own in privacy or whether it the pending home work or whether it is some other problem they always surface at the muhoortham of 9 at night.

The children howl in pain and cry "Valikkuthu! valikkuthu!" I am totally at loss at the nature and spot of these punishments.

There would be no sound of slapping or beating. Do they pinch hard or rap on the head with knuckles or twist their arms, or meddle with the marma sthaanam ....God only knows. :scared:

I hate this nightly out bursts and feel helpless in not being able to stop it.

1. I can never be sure from which house the sound emerges.
(There are 16 flats in each wing at four levels ) :(

2. Even if I can locate the house, I won't be able to climb up the stairs to go and talk to those parents.

3. I do what I can do to save myself from feeling wretched and miserable. I plug my ears and pray to God to give tolerance and good sense to all the parents!

That is not the end of the story. I am 99.99999% sure these children when they grow up and have their own kids are sure to pass on this punishment. :(
 
Kids learn a lot from their parents and other people they associate with.
It need not be spoken words always. It can also be the unspoken words
exhibited by the facial expressions and body postures of those people! :(
 
We have earned our body, our disposition, our diseases and our destiny by our karma. Getting good parents and getting good children are also earned by our previous karmas.

"kolaiyum seivaaL paththini" is an old adage.
"Kolaiyum seivaaL petra annai" is the new adage! :(

 
"Bhaaryaa roopathi chatru!" was the old adage.

But a roopavathi is a chatru not just to her husband
but also to her children from a series of marriages.

When her children and his children fall in love
there is bound to be bloodshed and foul play! :tsk:
 
Here is a question worthy of being asked by Vetaal to King Vikram!

What happens when a stepfather steps on his stepdaughter

and makes her his stepney - as a spare to her mother... his Nth wife???

Many things can happen and do happen. :dizzy:

The step daughter may deliver a child who is her daughter by birth

and her sister by relationship - since it is born to her stepping stepfather.

The Nth wife is in a dilemma too since the baby is legally her grand child

since it is born to her daughter. It is her daughter since it is born to her

husband! Small wonder such children are passed off as siblings.

The baby when it grows up will wish that it were never born in such a family!
 
Animals do not have such problems - since they forsake their children once they

are old enough to fend for themselves.They do not have a concept of virtue

(kaRpu) and suffer from remorse as consequence of their actions.

But the animals live by their instincts and they are not responsible for what they

they do since they have been programmed by Nature to behave in that way.

It is the man - standing on the topmost rung of civilization - who lives neither by

his intellect not by his instincts and stands out like a sore thumb in the beautiful

creations of God.

In the animal kingdom if there is kill it is ONLY for procuring food...

not out of jealousy... not out of shame... not out of cut throat competition

and not out of insatiable craving for sex or money or power!

அவங்க 'ஒரு மாதிரி ஃ பேமலி' அப்படின்னு சொல்றீங்க ?
'ஒரு மாதிரி' அப்பிடின்னா என்ன மாதிரி?


குப்புசாமி:

அப்பா 'மாதிரி' அந்த ஆண் பிள்ளை.
அம்மா 'மாதிரி' அந்தப் பெண்பிள்ளை.
குழந்தை 'மாதிரி' அந்த வயசுப் பொண்ணு.
பேத்தி 'மாதிரி' அந்த குட்டிப் பாப்பா.
இதை வேறு எந்த 'மாதிரி'ச் சொல்ல முடியும்?
நீங்களே சொல்லுங்க பார்க்கலாம் ! :rolleyes:


அப்புசாமி, குப்புசாமிக்கு மீண்டும் நல்வரவு! :)

It depends on the age of people whether they suffer or enjoy inside locked rooms.

One should belong to the right age group of the right sex to enjoy their company behind locked doors.

Did you see rajkapoors film BOBBY where dIMPLE and Rishi kapoor get locked in
 
How to distinguish between good and bad neighbors??? :confused:



நல்ல அண்டை வீட்டுக்காரர்:

அங்கும் இங்கும் நடமாடுபவர். :roll:


பிறவகை அண்டைவீட்டுக்காரர்:

அங்கும் இங்கும் படமாடுபவர்!!! :scared:



 
Life in an apartment often becomes very difficult.

The territorial contest for Thanik kodi (for drying clothes) is eternal! :argue:

Keeping one's entire footwear collection in front of another flat happen

to people timid people who can't fight back!

To keep the windows open we need the permission of a person who lives in another

block but parks his car outside our bedroom - almost touching the walls.

As for the nocturnal activities and drama presented with

sound and light effects there is never any shortage.

WHY do we live here against all these odds?

Just for the sake of personal safety and security of the house and its contents

during our absence we have to compromise on many things all our lives! :(

My good friend who used to lock the doors from inside while going outside got looted during her prolonged visit to her elder son in UK. :(

And there were two watchmen on 12 hours duty each! :sleep: :yawn:

Yet the thieves managed to enter the house unseen and unheard by the other neighbors, broke open every Godrej alamarah, sifted through the entire contents and had taken away whatever can be sold! :(

The police demanded money for registering the case - which they will never solve and even if they do, the stolen things will never be returned to the owners.

Being independent (free to quarrel and shout) may sound good but
being bound to one's house by an invisible iron chain is not good!
 
The taste buds of the elderly lose their efficiency
just a their nose, ears and eyes do!

So satisfying the taste buds of one person may make
the other person become like a balloon.
 
The small town had a baby boom all of a sudden. :bump2:

The rate of child birth reached alarming proportion

making it necessary to find out the real reason for it!

You could be felled by a feather if you knew the real reason.

A new train was introduced to the town at such a time when

it was too early to get up and too late to go back to sleep! :rolleyes:
 
Dear VR ji,

2 days ago I had to attend a function..I was dressed in a saree.
After a real long time I actually wore a saree.

But I realized something about a saree..no matter how beautiful it makes one looks..while wearing one its almost impossible to run cos I got chased by a dog!LOL

I was walking towards the house where I was supposed to go and a dog from one of the houses came out and first took a good look at me up and down a couple of times..then it came near and took a look again..then it started to lunge at me at started to bark and I had to take a few steps back..I didnt dare run..cos how to run but the dog kept coming forward and I was telling it nicely to go but it did not stop coming near me.

Then I screamed and the owner called it and the dog left.

So with a saree..its hard to run from a dog!LOL

Dear Renu,

Try wearing a baggy pyjama in a matching plain color, instead of the under skirt, while draping a saree.

But, if you wish to visit the rest room, make sure you wear the saree on an extra tape around the waist,

leaving the pyjama free!

But I wonder whether this idea will work for see-through sarees! :D
 
Dear Renu,
Did the dog get attracted by the sari and come closer to you
or was it disapproving your wearing the sari? :noidea:
It is not advisable to run away from a dog - sari or no sari. :nono:
The impulse for anyone/ anything is to chase the person who chooses to run!
The dogs can leap and jump and run on all the four while we will be in the most unstable equilibrium-standing on two legs and in a vertical position.
Stare back into it eyes with eyes of steel and more often than not
the dog will get the message loud and clear! :hand:

We will launch a new fashion by wearing the see-through-net-sari

over baggy pyjama of the same color - giving us the best of both the worlds-

the freedom of wearing the pyjama and the dignity of wearing the sari!! :thumb:
 
Long distance volvo buses have steps at a very high level. Usually, I travel with churidhar but

when it is necessary to wear a saree, like visit to some temple, I follow the baggy pyjama 'fundA'!! :cool:

P.S: All my sarees are fairly thick ones!
