The Poor Rich!

This is a short story I read while scanning through my mail...Wud like to share it with you..

One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, "How was the trip?""It was great, Dad..." "Did you see how poor people live?" the father asked."Oh yeah," said the son. "So, tell me, what you learned from the trip?" asked the father.
The son answered: "I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them." The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added, "Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are."

- Sometimes its not about what you make of yourself...its about what u feel for others that teaches you the wisest lessons of life!

Good Day :)

What 2 do!!!???!!!

..
Well I am undergoing a phase of total vellapan just like most of my college mates. College is over… CAT 07 is history…joining date is months away…so now its just “ Me n Meri tanhayi”

It was May 15th when I gave my last exam… Yar 2 mahine ho gye koi exam diye hue..ajeeb sa lag raha hai!! This is called PES aka Post Engg Syndrome ;)
So in this time apart from trying a few non pragatish things…I resorted to blogging…n I am loving it :)
The first month of my break was exciting. We finally got our farewell. It was like a fancy dress competition ;) everyone dressed up in pink, blue n purple…trying to look their best. The last adios and the endless photo sessions marked the day. Over the next week, the pics got exchanged on picassa, photo albums were updated on orkut and expert comments were given on every pose n style!

Once the farewell bit was over, I packed my bags n moved over to my mausi’s place. A motley of activities kept me occupied there. From baby sitting, to kite flying, to craftwork, to dilli darshan (I finally visited the Red fort!),to completing practical files for my cousin :(, to playing mindless games, n watching Disney, pogo, hungama for hours n hours. It was fun to be a kiddo again!
As a kid I remember waiting for chutti chutti every morning in the summer breaks, then there was Tales Spin n Duck Tales telecasted on DD Metro on Sunday mornings.I would watch I dream of jennie and Arnold at my nani’s place in the vacations. When we got cable TV at home,I fell in love with Popeye n Tom n jerry of course. Alladin was another favourite. As a teenager I watched Small Wonder with all my devotion.
And my cousins now watch Vikral n Gabral n Shh koi hai for entertainment…God..it scared the wits out of me!!

From chutti chutti to chinchan, we’ve witnessed the change ;)
Now kids have got 4 different channels dedicated for toons…how I am jealous! N irritated sometimes, they dint let me watch anything else!
Finally when I realized all of it was rather damaging my brain cells..I thought of returning back ;).

Now I am back home again doing nothing. So now the question is what 2 do!
I keep planning for a lot of things, like the trip to vaishno devi wid friends, which is in the ever postponement loop!
Any suggestions, comments are forever welcome!

Oh ya I made my first half cooked chapatti in this break..so I actually did something ;)
