And this is what makes a child's heart the purest

The topic of utmost concern during lunch today was an ambulance stuck in the traffic jam. My kindergarten going son came a little late from the school today. When we settled down for lunch he said do you know why I got late today, to which i replied must be the traffic. He said yes and do you know what happened , " an ambulance was also there in the traffic jam and no one was giving it the way to move ahead", Then he went on and on about how people were honking their vehicles and nobody paid attention to an ambulance which was on its way to help the needy.

Soul Ramblings

A saga since eve was created and sent to this earth...a dominance manifested into the minds of almost half the human species calling themselves male of the society to empower their souls and selves, a yearning - that would end with the world probably - of the other half of the society faking not just carnal pleasures but a whole life too! I have a mind and i can have thoughts too, a tongue and the ability to speak too, a heart which may at times want to follow its own rythm and  sway hitherto.... i am a living, livid creature too..., i am a woman, i am every woman, a daughter, a girlfriend, a fiancee, a wife, a mother.....a woman at that. No...no....no you are all those relationships, never forget that and subservience is the golden nectar that has been shoved down your throat since you were a little girl. It is the mantra you have to abide by always and always.... Dare you forget it and here comes the trouble. "Just make sure your bold thoughts are not heard by anyone....what
