Chaos all around.. Is it ??

With morning coffee in my hands, I stand in the portico gasping  the fresh air which was so  refreshing in the morning. It  was a regular day, but I decided to bunk the office after a very long time. Bunking is a special feeling, (btw: bunking is disappearing from work without any information) we would have bunked the classes, but bunking the office is the industry's latest trend. It was a quiet day, as I turn the Newspaper, sipping second coffee of the day, it was really meant to be a relaxed day and the plan was to Eat, sleep, repeat until it becomes boring. How many of you have bunked the office recently? If you haven't tried yet don't waste time bunk your work today and who have already tried, try again.
Coming back to the lead concept... I was having second coffee of the day when a very loud horn got my attention. It was a school bus, then a second, a third, fourth sometimes a school bus, sometimes auto rickshaws picking students.
Somehow the chaos created by the school bus resided whilst I settled down for music in one of the channel. This time I was disturbed by a different sound of horn which was really very frequent & loud which made it difficult to enjoy the music.. well I should say it was even hard to hear the music. Men and women were rushing for work, I raised my hand to wish a biker.. though he is my friend he doesn’t have enough  time to stop, so replied to me with a rhythmic horn. Office goers some of them riding the motor bike, some walking to reach the bus stop, some rushing in the car it was really chaotic with bikes & cars going left and right. Even with all ongoing chaos around, a random guy was happy to call the VJ to play his favorite song. It seems, there are many others who have bunked the work to enjoy the day.
Finally its was breakfast time, I was happy to have sambar Idly & Pongal which is kind of a sedative breakfast but its very tasty and finger licking awesome. All the chaos, noise, loud horns faded away, I slowly slipped into a cozy couch for a nap only to wake up for the loud roar of the garbage truck, followed by the vegetable vendor, followed by many other loud, louder, loudest calls. Adding to all these, construction work started in the near by building which contributed to all kind of noise pollution with concrete machines, yelling workers, jack hammers, vibrators and what not? The Jack hammer was crushing my skull more than the rock. It sent waves of chaos through my spine. My work place was sound proofed from outside noise and anyone hardly talks to each other as the boss is watching from the tinted glass cabin so it was a little difficult to cope-up with loud noise outside.
With all the hustle and bustle around, I decided there will be no way to be in peace sitting at home. After an hour of deliberation between I, myself and me, I concluded to watch a movie( not a bad idea) in the nearby multiplex. I got ready, booked online ticket for 11am show, jumped into the car and hit the road. Maneuvering through the corners reached the main road, OMG!! the main road was bustling with traffic. Hundreds of vehicles were going into the city and hundreds of vehicles were going out of the city, I had to wait for 5min in each traffic signal. By the time I reached the theatre, the movie have already started.  The whole movie was filled with gun fights, loud music and terrible comedy. Finally the movie came to an end and I was so hungry. I went to the restaurant closer to the movie theater.. Can you guess what I ordered? ...... Yes you guessed it right I ordered for Biryani,  by the time I got back home I was so sleepy. Wasting no time I drowned myself inside the pillows of the couch for afternoon nap. I was snoring loud which echoed from the roof and wall creating a chaos for the resting birds in window sunshade near to the couch. It was a very deep sleep, Biryani sleep, I was dreaming and my snore sounded like a lullaby. After almost an hour I woke up to find my self in the bed. I have turned & rolled and created a chaos in the bed. I slept in the couch but how I came to bed, Am I having the habit of  walking in the sleep? While thinking of my new habit, I heard the sound of my children downstairs. I peeped from the mezzanine and found them in the dining table in school uniform. I asked them why don’t you guys change the uniform before eating.
Coffee was served to me on the table, While sipping the coffee I asked my children how was the school today? My son replied “ Appa we are going to school now, will tell you about the school in the evening” I replied “Its evening now and you just came back from school” Everyone busted into laughter leaving me puzzled, when once again I heard the horn of the school bus which brought me to my senses “Did I sleep so long?” or “ Am I dreaming about the chaos?”. Once again sipping the coffee I realized that I bunked office in my dreams, witnessed the morning chaos in my dreams, watched movie in my dream, Had biryani in my dream and had afternoon nap in my dream OMG!! In no time I got ready amid all the chaos and I am on my way to office...
We live in so much chaotic environment, we create chaos around us inducing stress and strain in our lives. We need to bunk the chaotic day once in a while and indulge in what’s refreshing for our body, mind and soul.

Happy bunking folks!!!!!!

India and cultural diversity

Image
India is  a beautiful sovereign country and is one of the most culturally diverse country. Anyone in the world would easily accept India as a cultural capital. The list runs miles when we talk about the cultural experience in the form of art, festivals, customs, social behavior etc. In many countries uniform culture is adapted, whereas in India every 100KM one can experience a new cultural variant and in every 500KM can easily experience a completely different culture. If anyone wishes to witness the rich cultural heritage of India, watch the republic day parade on 26th January every year, where cultural diversity of India is demonstrated by a colorful parade. Every state of India showcase their cultural heritage with great pride during the Republic day parade. Its a real treat to watch the cultural diversity.  State of Tamilnadu team in Republic day Parade  Cultural diversity enriches the country with many art forms and enhances creativity. Every individual in India respec

Are you ready for hefty traffic fine..

Image
It’s a great pleasure to write a blog for a social cause.. Recently government of India increased the traffic fines by almost 10x times hoping that the hefty traffic fines would force public to follow traffic  rules. I have tried to give a dimension to this whole episode with respect to the responsibilities of the Government, Individuals & Institution. The increase in fine has created  uproar as well as support among the public. It is usual in any democracy to have such split opinions. I think I was in 9th grade when my class teacher was very fond of imposing hefty fines. In those time a fine of ten rupees was hefty for a ninth grader. I have been in the construction industry for almost 20yrs. Apart from the hazards at the project site, a constant threat was travel related safety. Hence we were educated to follow the traffic rules time and again. Coming back to the topic, I happened to hear opinion from friends, Indian colleagues about  the hefty fines which have sent shock

A tribute to the fearless man with a turban and big moustache

It was early 20th century... It was more than 50years since Sepoy Mutiny(1857) happened, Well, British governance was facing tough agitation from Indian tribal leaders, Nawab's and Kings in many forms. By then British were  ruling India for more than a century and they have no plans to leave India because of the wealth it possesses, abundance of raw materials and cheap resources . They started Indian rail, planted tea gardens, developed hill stations and India has became a county( I guess) and integral part of Great Britain and Indians became immigrants in their very own country While British were developing infrastructure for the sake of rich and the powerful, we Indians were busy fighting against each other in the name of caste, creed and religion. Many castes were prohibited from entering the temples, denied formal education and women had no respect and rights  in the society. Child marriage, bonded labor  and satti were in practice. India was in dire need of personali
