The Last Words- Biding Adieu to India's Most Cherished Communication - Good Bye Telegrams

As a child, in schools we were taught, how to write TELEGRAMS.   Later when the tragedy shook us on a fateful winter morning, all I could do is rush to the nearby post office with my dad's diary and fill the blocks of the telegram receipt papers....FATHER SAMPATH KUMAR EXPIRED.    I sent close to 12 telegrams that day in 1992 which made my relatives arrive on time for his funeral.  

Thanks to Amul for this beautiful tribute in its own way:-)

Today, when the same communication channel is having its d-day, I feel nostalgic and sentimental.  I have not used the service for several years now, but the typing of 100 used to send us a Greeting Telegram or a Condolence message by typing another number.  This messaging system was the ancient SMS format., bringing in good and bad news to everyone in India.  After 163 years of being in service, the oldest system is now laid to rest.  ....leaving behind several memories of the forgotten service.  With the advent of cell phones, emails and instant messaging on social media, news is now not awaited anymore, its pushed to us by force.

The system still in use in ARMY where the soldiers still do not have an amicable network for communications, know the value better.   People residing abroad relied mostly on this service to show as proof of requests to travel back to their mother land on emergencies or to apply leave.  The court orders were sent by telegrams and communicated for quicker action from post offices.  No wonder soon the postal services would also see the advent of closure.....I only fear that a day is nearing where we can say 'Postman is no more knocking'

Greetings that would stop from July 15th 2013

People used to preserve the telegrams that carried good news like a child birth or a marriage for years.  In this digital era, this became a thing of the past.  Nothing is constant than the change in this world and this goes to our TELEGRAMS also as they go into the pages of history leaving behind the footprints of an wonderful communication services that brought both smiles and tears to millions who used it for years.

Bid Adieu my friend in need-  Good bye!

Child Begging Racket- Begging - a existing phenomenon for Child Trafficking, Drug Abuse and Untimely deaths- A Social Menace- A Sad Story!

 

Heart bleeds to see the children hanging on their 'Rented Mothers'  who bang on the car windows, run across the roads chasing bikers, or sit lost in the railways stations and bus stands with children sleeping silently in the laps.   The mothers look equally innocent besides the fact that they are part of a huge child trafficking racket without even knowing about it.   Both the rented mothers and the children are dusty, pale, mal-nourished and destitute.     They wear torn clothes, carry empty milk bottles and equally dusty bags carrying one set of clothes and not sure what else.   But the fact that these children are sleeping all the time is 'alarming'.  The Big Question is Why are these children sleeping all the time.

Every day on the way to office, a woman with a child used to bang on our car door asking for few pennies.   Though I used to feel sad, I always felt the need not to encourage this begging.   But to my dismay and shock, this woman started carry different children every other day.   The child varied from 3 months to 3 years and most of the time, the Child is again Sleeping!  

 Moreover, the child at times have a broken arm or a bandaged leg.   Why?  
How is the Child Hurt?   And the Big Question is Why is the Child Sleeping every time I see during the same time of the day ?  Do children sleep so and all the time?  The same lady on the way back also used to carry the kid still sleeping. 
After months of observations, I wanted to stop the car, and get to the lady.  The minute I did, she ran away.  I could see a fear in her eyes, haste in her legs and tremors in the body.  One auto driver standing next to me, said that there is no use trying to find her.  They are controlled by the big gangs who in turn rob / kidnap or buy these children, rent them to the women on daily basis, and take away a huge part of their begging collection.  What is further more alarming is that these children are fed with Vodka and Drugs so that they just keep sleeping and hanging on to the woman's shoulder bags.    The fact that no real mother would use the sick/ mal-nourished child for begging makes us feel more at discomfort seeing these 'Young mom's... sometime, we see them as young as 12 years old and they themselves look like children.
 Feeling Sad, sick and frustrated and equally not able to do anything about this, I thought I can least vent my sadness in my blog so that someone will give me a hope for a solution to this menace we see in every day routine.  

The least I could do is not to give alms to these beggar women .  Unless we have law to stop begging, governments to rehabilitate destitute women, and safeguard our children from the clutches of this cruel business,  we will still be seeing this horror stories on the streets every day. 

Pictures here speak volumes than my words and most of them are sourced from the internet

The Hero Behind the scenes of Neeya Naana- Antony

The Hero Behind the scenes of Neeya Naana-   Antony

Antony-  Captain of Neeya Naana- Photo Courtesy- Facebook

The real brain behind the scene is always unseen'-   As such the real heroes are always unsung.   This is not only for our Indian Army, Armed Forces but also for the Genius called Antony.

Millions of viewers watch the TV

 show - Neeya Naana-   a popular Tamil debate show in Vijay TV- a subdivision of Star Network.   The applause and credit goes to the anchor Mr. Gopinath.C.   He is famous for his style of debating skills, acute journalism, and right usage of words at the right time and keeps the show in track of the conversations, balancing emotions and reactions of the either groups during the debates.  He also adequately stays composed, with his dialogue delivery, use of the right connotations and excellent linguistic skills.   What millions of viewers are not aware is that the entire show is  controlled, managed, directed and delivered by the Director- Antony...who stays through out the show capturing the same bit by bit, and delivering word by word, prompting to Gopi on what next to be done.   Gopi excellently manages hearing to the heartbeat called Antony, and the same time managing the pulse of the parties involved; this in turn makes it an excellent team effort and a success story.

Right from the production team, sourcing the right people to talk, organizing the studio, lighting, set management, audio controls, camera captures, editing, sound and recording basics, and starting with a devotional prayer before the actual shooting, everything is so well organized and controlled.   Make-up and Coats of Gopinath, to providing water and tea to the participants on regular basis all along the show, and also providing food for those who travelled to the studios, they ensure that the whole team is comfortable.   This show is not for the 15 minutes of fame.   This show is for proving an insight into the subjects handled.   This show is all about the reality of our everyday lives...the facts that we hide and the fiction we diction so easily.   This show is to highlight the social issues, probing into root causes, trying to influence in its smallest way to the segment of the society that it can reach.

Antony is to be widely appreciated for the choice of topics- that are both current and also related to the every day lives of the normal people in the society.  The topics and the show are so popular only for the reason that the viewers can relate to themselves in some way or the other.   It does not dilute from the facts though it builds over a planned context of discussion supremely controlled and managed by our unsung hero- Antony

As long as we have directors like Antony who are managing huge projects like Neeya Naana, there is no doubt of their success.   No wonder, the team is in tact from the day it started till today.   The show is only gaining popularity and wisdom as the years go and matures into a compulsory relaxing hours ending the weekend, being telecast late evening every Sunday.  It does not just stay as a weekend entertainment or week day re-telecasts for people at homes, but it becomes a knowledge area that cannot be missed.   This would continue for sure as long as this man is at the helm of affairs.

Triplicane Ratna Cafe- One of the best Chennai Charms

As a child when ever we used to visit the Parthasarathy temple and the beach, the dinner destination was undoubtedly one spot that sprangs with hot idly's and spicy savoring Sambar.

Idly- Sambar is one ultimate food combination for Chennai Lovers and this place called Ratna Cafe in Triplicane is a heaven.  Go during any time of the day, you get to taste mouth-watering specialty and the food being served with  unlimited sambar pouring to your plate, you only wish you could eat more.   

The Original Ratna Cafe is in the busy crowded lanes of Tiruvalekeni as it was called when Chennai was Madras...still retains the same charm and glory...though the tables are experiencing the test of time, cushions are worn out, the photos on wall are old, and kitchen still fumes with black smoke.   

Today, there are multiple branches of this older timer, and giving the Chennities the pleasure of their traditional sambar-idly.  However, I would still take time to travel to the old Ratna cafe for my plate of Sambar - Idly and a strong filter coffee....

If you love, this place, share with me your experiences and love as Chennai foodie!

SAY NO TO CHILD LABOUR- World Day against Child Labour- June 12, 2013

As the world today is celebrating ‘No Child Labour Day’ , the sound of the shrill call from a elite friend of the past resonanced in my ears loudly again-   “Rama-   Ekkada chachavey”….meaning Rama, where the hell have you died….

The just 10+ year old child ran to her ‘Madam’ side in a less than a minute and this fabulous rich civilized woman creature gave her a kick in her pit saying that she should stay in her sight all the time.  The little girl was embarrassed for I was there watching this happen …and as I tried stopping this so called friend.   The Madam gave the instructions to Rama to start pressing her legs as she stretched them on the coffee table from the sofa.  I felt like pushing her sofa upside down.. The poor little girl started to obey her silently for everything she was instructed to!.  

This is just one of the millions Rama’s who silently endure the pain of a heavy childhood, not see a penny of their earning which get sent to their parents in the villages,  fed on the leftovers and let to sleep on the floor even in chill winter nights.  These children help in domestic chores of cleaning, cooking and washing.  Few help the elders run errands for them.  Few are destined to be baby sitting all the times as mothers keep busy with kitty party’s and clubs and sometime genuine work schedules.   

Children working as child sex workers silently, not knowing of pregnancy and child birth, and subsequent consequences are another side of this sad story.  Children trafficked to other countries as domestic help and baby sitters, forbid of their rightful education and growing up years of childhood to enjoy, the poverty of the parents push them to the chores beyond their age. 

Millions of children work in remote villages in farms, silently inside the rooms of the factories,  do demeaning chores hidden inside the industries and sadly in the red light areas of the country doing jobs beyond their age and understanding.  

Construction laborers’, hotel waiters and cleaners, domestic helpers, courier boys, news paper boys, car cleaners,  workers in quarries and as wood cutters, cobblers, painters and potters.  These children do not know what is it like having a four square meal, a good night  comfortable sleep,  education and alphabets,  money and savings and no dreams of a sustainable future.  They get for the day, they eat and sleep what ever is possible and carry on with their lives.   By the time, they realize what they lost, they can never get back -  the precious childhood and hopes of education

 Thanks to the night schools and no child left behind campaigns, the children today are getting the required awareness and attention.  However, there is yet a larger segment of the society that is not careful of this menace between us.   Thoughtlessly employing children at any form of work is made illegal in most part of the world, but the law remained in the books far away from action. 

Time to say NO to Child Labour and put a strong end to this in our country.   Every child need to be set free to dream and dare to move in their lives with confidence and choice than be pushed to labour and burdened childhood.

Dark is Beautiful- Skin Color is still an issue. Why? (Inspired by the Dark is Beautiful Campaign)

In the darkness of sky, I find the brightest stars!

In the midst of the world, lies the darkest cores!

In the mountains, we find the darkest peaks!

In the depths of oceans, we find the rarest gems!

True....No one got a right in this world, to make you feel that your color of the skin is an issue.  You are beautiful in your own right.   The beauty of heart is more important than the color of the skin.  Everyone  knew this, however the society is still obsessed with fair people.   Fairness of skin is considered wanted, confident and attractive.   Even the darkest people have the beautiful outlook, however this is ignored.  

The shade of our skin takes over the strength of brains and will of our hearts.   Unfortunately, not only in India, but in many parts of the world, the cosmetic market is making, that the fairness is the thing that the world wants...  The advertising business and marketing world, creates a inferiority complex in the minds of not only adults but also children that being fair is important for existence.  What they don't care to understand is that it is hitting hard on the psychology of young minds and making them feel inferior, left behind and introverts in nature.   

Schools and colleges do not encourage dark skinned students to come front on the stage.... Dark skinned talents are pushed to back seat when it comes even for job interviews,  marriage proposals,  or today even adding to your friends list in Facebook.... Every person, is trying to put the best of display picture, Photoshoped and hiding their real self....Why is this crisis?  Why is the stigma still continuing even after having the Presidents of Nations who have darker shades of skin?   

O

Our beloved church in Glendale, where we enjoyed being
accepted and loved without any bias

Looks and appearance matters,  to some extent in the industry like Cinema and Media, however, the same industry saw success stories like Rajnikanth and Nandita Das and we still think talents are only in white skinned people.    Were we not called Brown people from times immemorial.   Why are we so obsessed with the Nations where they have people who are fairer.  In fact in those Nations, the people are trying to have tanned skin,  respecting our people equally and consider us one among them and respecting us for what we are and not for how we look...

Happy my favorites god are all dark!

My story is a classical example of this discrimination.  I was my dad's dearest daughter, as he always wanted me not to feel inferior when the whole world kept commenting that I am the darkest kid in the family....It was in fact, it was him and my class teacher Satyavathi teacher in 7th grade, who made me overcome this complex, and patted on my back and said that I should explore oratory, essay writing and be on stage playing my favorite dramas...However,  my younger sister got to act as angel and I always got the Three men from East, or the cattle, where my face is covered in the dramas.  But those days, I didn't even realize that my skin color was a problem.  I kept winning and it became a habit..and noting bothered me....

Solid Rock Relationship-  nothing comes in between

 As a teen, my mom always had the fear that I may not have a proper marriage proposals as I am short and dark among st our three sisters.   The first pinch of discrimination came in when my mother in law, sighed heavily that she got a dark girl for his handsome son....that was when the reality dawned on my face of adulthood.   I cried.  But it was my husband who stood behind me and said that the goodness of heart is million times better than the fairness of the face.   His statements that I am beautiful,  I have a very artistic features, and so on encouraged me to divert my attention towards positive things and ignore the nonsense comments around...

Happy Family....

When my child was born, I cried.  She was pink bundle of joy.  I could not believe that I can have the fairest baby in the world in my arms.  I thanked God that she will not have to endure the skin color complexes that I had to withstand and kept fighting all my life....

My mentors who encouraged me to be
good professional, no bias faced on my overseas
trips and happy I was just accepted as I am

Today, my thoughts, my achievements and self-contentment of being a blogger, writer, poet and a good professional and above all, being a happy wife, proud mom, sister, and daughter makes me overlook all the issues, I had to face due to my skin color.  

Trust me, I also tried every damn fairness cream in the market expecting overnight results and slowly realized that nothing is going to change by the fake promises made by the cosmetic companies.  

The change has to be within me, on how I look at myself in the mirror everyday. ..I can look and say, I am dark...and feel inferior...or I can take a look, give myself a strong  smile and say, that I am beautiful, both internally and externally.  The beauty is surely lies in the happiness of your mind and the sparkle in your eyes.    It is important how you feel about yourself than how the world feels about you...ultimately the world around you will change to the way you feel....... Beautiful in your own way!

Can I wrap my life in an Envelope?

Last one year had been tremendously stressful with frequent runs to the medicos to fix one thing or the other. In my doc's words, my body seems to be not running faster as my mind does and heart wants....and hence the conflict.


After my happy return home to Chennai, at the end of 2011, I made a resolution (rather a stupid one) to keep doing as much as I can- work, family, hobbies, travel, social work, poetry, blogging, making new friends, finding old and missing one’s, not to miss any social events- be it a marriage, new born, engagement or even attending funerals. Of course, travelling and working like a log glued to the cushion forever, and becoming a Big Strong Couch Potato was as well in my unwritten agenda. I have brought back the family to run on the tracks of the Indian Roads - thanks to the visa screw up...none to be blamed than me! And ugh...the poor daughter-dad duo had no choice but to cling on to my boggy of doggy-woozy aspirations.

People, who knew me well, knew me this way all through my life...but at sometime, I peeped into the bathroom in silence and looked at the mirror in dismay. Oh No! It’s not me anymore. I am aging....Common, give me a break- Aging! Yeah may be in thoughts and mind! Its not me any more truly and that's the main reason for my health issues.

I always have this problem- with the train of thoughts and a rare phenomenon called 'what next?' phobia. I have not heeded to the warning signs of my husband to slow down and kept running madly every day- Work is inevitable....taking care of family is responsibility....running behind my child on her studies, manners and managing her Teen Tantrums is a Parental duty....with all this, I wanted to do something else every day.

Learning kept my mind active...Madly certifications became passion. Poetry is in blood and it spring's out at the most unexpected times....however,...I joined few groups in Chennai......Social Service to Orphanages and Old age homes.....I very much loved doing it....Conservation and Nature care....tree plantations, temple clean ups, trekking, running, cycling, helping Marathons, Trailtons, and every event in the city.... I was enjoying my life and was there!

As we were gearing up for the old friends meet as part of the 75 Years of our school this year, and getting in touch with old friends some after 2 decades of missing...there came a shocker. Losing a friend to a car accident was devastating. Attending her ceremony was an emotionally hard and physically draining. I collapsed. Docs gave list of names to the unknown friend who invaded my life since last one month....hands cried in pain of injections and body felt like running away to an unknown territory where there is no pain, sleeplessness and thoughts. When you get closer to death and regain your life...your perception of life changes. I started to think what would happen to my family in case I am gone... a very natural thought that too when you get really ill and critical.

After a weeks of completely glued to my bed, with my policeman and his assistant keeping a close watch on me 24*7, I got my space. The moment my husband went to work after 3 weeks of bearing with my groaning and gloating, I jumped out of my bed.

I pulled out my insurance file, started checking on my financials, nominations, planning to write a will, keep all contacts listed in my diary, and wanted to keep an Envelope with the title 'In case of my death!'.

'In case of my death'- wanted this envelope to contain, what my family should do in case of my eventuality....later only I realized, what damn it is going to be for me after I am gone and why the hell they should be guided by what I wanted them to do! - Selfish Indian Mentality!

I wanted to write about the details of how my funeral should be, who all should attend, my bank account details, my friends and relatives details, do's and don't list to my family, all other things I kept feeling important to me as I pass away - Again- what if I was gone suddenly in an accident. Should we not be organized and live life like every day is a last day in life in this present unpleasant world of uncertainties. Again a negative way of looking at life!

Then, came a pang of wisdom. what should my family do with the 30 odd diaries I scribbled for most of my years and poems, books, paintings, clothes...and I now felt that envelope would not be enough...Probably I need a folder!

Folder will have sections- on what my daughter should aspire to become as per her wishes, my dreams about her marriage... my plans for my husband , donation of my eyes and organs,...sharing of my assets with my preferred NGOs and how my family should react when I am gone...and all this.......Is it not Madness!

Though everyone should plan their rites of passage....as Kalpana Mohan writes in India currents.... there is no way one can plan life after its gone! Its outside your Internal Line of Control- Things would change, circumstances and reactions would as well change...people and their thoughts of life would change...so what is that you are trying to manage after you are gone as well!

Instead, I can realign my world, happy that I got another chance to be alive and greet the world again with a smile. Take it slow but steadily do what gives me happiness... Concentrate on my priorities, manage my schedules better... keep important people in life in tact than knowing about 1000 friends on Facebook who are just acquaintances and not really friends.....keep life on a positive note and teach family to survive in your absence than to make them controlled after you are gone! - Crazy Woman- It’s me!

First take care of family, job, close friends and above all - Health. Do what all possible to keep you active both physically and mentally - take on walking , reading good books, listening to music, eating proper home made simple food on time, stopping junk eating and sodas... go for regular health check ups and follow prescriptions religiously , do meditation and stay grounded than flying with the plane of thoughts- a promotion from the train of thoughts I always had from my childhood....Probably this wisdom dawned on me lately- thankfully never too late!

Yes, I know now- Life is not just wrapping it up in an envelope- It is the way you take it- The way you live life to the fullest- not necessarily King -Size but surely peacefully, healthy and happy life is all in your hands

Thanks to this gyan of enlightenment that started with the thought of my Envelope!
