M REALLY SORRY

M  REALLY SORRY

ANGREZ GAYE PAR SORRY CHOD GAYE ‘is a famous sentence usually referred by us when some one really says sorry ……

    RECENTLY I HAD A HUGE FIGHT WITH MY MOM. ONCE THE QUARELLING SESSION WAS OVER, WE BOTH LOOKED AT EACH OTHER ABOUT WHO WILL SAY SORRY FIRST.( many a times our neighbour ends up calling my dad from office to stop our fight )

AS USUAL I HAD TO SAY SORRY. EVERY TIME WE FIGHT, WE THINK ABOUT WHO IS GOING TO TAKE INITIATIVE TO SAY SORRY. ALTHOUGH THE REASON BEHIND THE FIGHT COULD BE SILLY, BUT WE FIGHT MORE OFTEN. SOMETIMES THE FIGHT IS EXTENDED SO LONG, JUST BECAUSE SHE DRAGS ALL THE PAST FIGHTS TOO.

   FRIENDS DO FORGIVE YOU VERY EASILY FOR YOUR MISTAKES BUT TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLY HERE.  IT GOES LIKE ….ONE SHOULD NOT CROSS THE LIMIT, MINOR MISTAKES ARE WELCOMED THOUGH.

IF YOU ARE COSSING ANY LIMIT, YOU ARE GONE. YOUR FRIEND WILL NOT ONLY THROW YOU OUT OF HIS LIFE BUT ALSO ABUSE YOU WITH HIS FULL STRENGTH AND AGAIN PAST FIGHTS CAN BE REFERRED HERE TOO. YOU JUST HAVE TO SAY TO YOUR FRIEND…YAAR, THIS IS THE LAST TIME AND M REALLY SORRY.

  ‘REALLY’ would help you. But why we commit the same mistake repeatedly and then say ‘SORRY’. …WHEN WE KNOW THE PERSON IN OPPOSITE WILL LEAD THE BATTLE.

     I recall once incident when I was travelling from western local to see one of my friend (not at all important  ...I just wanted to return her pen drive). I boarded local train from dadaR

Station for Bandra, a viRAR bound train. I got place at the very end of the wooden seat. Already three fat ladies were acquiring it. I could easily fall at any time without any support. Train was overcrowded and for me it was miserable to be seated there. I cursed my friend (  for whom m travelling so much ) to call me all the way from central to western. 
To trouble me, here comes a lady .She asks me to shift as the fat young lady next to me was ready to get up. MY reply was initially NO.... before I could see the other lady vacate her seat, she innocently turned her eyes towards her fractured hand. To her tragedy, I could only do is get up and let her enjoy the journey by sitting. I decided to stand. EVEN the lady (who just arrived) had fracture hand. She definitely needs to be safe. I made my move and was standing in front of her as there was no place around to sit or stand. In between the train halted (THANKS TO WESTERN RAILWAY  ...THEY HELP US INVITE MORE TROUBLE) and everyone present in that compartment got a sudden jolt. Including me, few other ladies standing in the same compartment experienced a jolt. I accidentally fell on the lady standing next to me, leaving my bag do the rest of it.

My hand bag fell on the lady to whom I gave the seat. My bag rested on her fractured hand. My sudden response was to say I M SORRY and take my bag back. But this lady was not that innocent to what she appeared to me while requesting to shift. She screamed as if because of me her hand got fractured. I could sense the scene then. I knew what is coming next. Ladies in that compartment started scolding me for doing it purposely. I got anxious. Once again I said I M REALLY SORRY AUNTY. She was not ready to accept. She appears to be from well to do family but she was adamant. She refuses to accept my sorry. I asked her patiently, should I take you to doctor?

To this she replied ‘what do you think? I can’t afford myself to go to doctor? (She almost shouted making it audible to all present in that compartment and leaving me embarrassed)

I kept looking here and there ( i took out my cell and behaved as if i m reading some messages just to avoid her nonsense talk ) . But Woman is WOMAN . She gathered other ladies sitting around and winning over sympathy. Those ladies have already scolded me. Now only 1 thing was left and that is BEATING ME! 
I was chanting some prayer to god to come and save me, which will not happen at any condition. Even god is scared of ladies boggie .
 Here comes my savior, there was the announcement done for next station. The moment I heard “aglaa station bandra”, I quickly took my bag (which was still with that lady) and got out of the mess and asking all to shift , shift and shift and went near the door and down...

I got down from the train quickly as if no one is watching me. I was still suspicious about that lady. Who was she? Why she didn’t accept my sorry. I was really sorry for her but she didnt accept..her loss.
 Was there any other way I could say sorry to her. It was not my fault even, why I said sorry?….all this questions did round my head and I was deep into my thought while walking the platform to connect with the nearest bridge to reach bandra west.

 SURPRIZE… (It was morning time, naturally people are in hurry, and no one is interested to what you are up to.)

One young boy was running to catch train (which is still to arrive in the same platform) and I was walking in the same direction completely ignoring what is coming next.

  And….just like some bollywood movie both of us collided and then I don’t feel sorry as I was not in fault. (I was actually but I didn’t want to say sorry, as I already got an example of saying sorry just before in train). I felled and he quickly throws his hand to get me up ( girl quick , I have to catch this any how else my boss will throw me out today : was his expression ) .

I managed to get up and stand by myself by throwing an angry look at him.

He smiles and I just stare at him.(A well dressed boy , holding his office bag in one hand and newspaper in other with a dimple on his left cheek)

Hey listen, my fault and I M REALLY SORRY ‘he ends up by quoting this normally used phrase in such cases and leaves without even consenting about me (with whom he just now got collided). I could not say anything but only stare at him ,then laugh at that very moment and see him disappear in the morning crowd.

I asked myself.......two experiences in one day …. Completely opposite yet a lesson to myself. Never say sorry unless you are sure whether you are REALLY SORRY?

THE BARKING CROW

                                       

6am in the morning, someone is really shouting hard making it difficult for SAHAB & his FAMILY to sleep…mrs.malkin woke up and got busy to her daily rituals..rituals?? Well preparing breakfast and packing Tiffin’s for her husband and son.

MALKIN folding her hairs and reciting slogan could see kalu maharaj sitting in the kitchen window frame. As she opens roti ka dabbaa, kalu maharaj shows her some gymnast’s skills.

Malkin welcomes kalu maharaj every morning with a whole piece of STALE chapatti and a bowl of fresh water, which kalu loves to. As malkin gets busy doing her breakfast , kalu maharaj finishes the chapatti and takes few sip of water and does some kaao kaao( just to thanks malkin for saving one chapatti last night ) and leaves for his work.

WORK???? well, Mr. kalu maharaj is thinking to get married soon. so he is in search for his KALU MAHARANI . Although he has given some advertisements in the matrimonial sites for kalu’s, but in vain. He is even busy building KALU PALACE for his wife and future baby kalu’s. Keeping in mind all this aspect, maharaj believes he should construct two storey’s palace.

Kalu maharaj stays in an AAM ka TREE which is located just opposite to MALKINS building and the kitchen window of malkins is easily viewed from kalu’s on going palace.

On his hunt for kalu maharani, one fine afternoon he met one female kalu sitting in a PERU TREE. kalu maharaj liked her she too liked him.

He loved, she smiled and he smiled, she loved.

Everything is set. Kalu maharaj got married to kalu maharani. Their kalu palace is ready to welcome their new maharani.

  Now malkin has to keep aside two chapatti every night for kalu and his mrs.kalu

After some long time, kalu maharaj came back (probably they went for honeymoon)

And got seated in the kitchen balcony and In his tone ( kaau kaau ) he crowed to Malkin, to which malkin reacted and smiled. She quickly placed chapattis in front of kalu mahraj.

Her eyes searching for his wife, Mrs. kalu maharani but could trace her .

Before she could take that extra piece of chapatti back, kalu mahraj took both the pieces and flew away to his palace.

He gave the extra chapatti to his wife, who is pregnant now. As doctor kalu advised her not to fly, she prefers staying back at her palace and wait for her hubby maharaj to return back.

One fine afternoon, kalu maharaj was out for shopping while mrs.kalu (still pregnant) was taking rest in the palace.

she experienced some sort of shake in their palace and got suspicious. She moved out and to her surprise everything was getting thrashed and her beloved relatives were already gone. She was the only one left in the palace. She tried to reach maharaj. Again she experienced the same movement, it was tree quake (just like we humans experience earth quake) and she could not fly. She was helpless now. But she could see, it was not tree quake. Some humans were cutting the tree with sharp object. Whereas Malkin was watching it furiously standing at the kitchen window holding her three year old son and SAHAB is instructing the other humans to cut the whole tree.

As whole kalu family is against the use of cell phones, maharani could not contact her maharaja or any other relative who belongs to kalu and family. (Reason behind not using the cell phone ….THEY care for mother earth unlike some humans and also they are well versed with the term GLOBAL WARMING  ...they are highly affected by it though )

  KALU MAHARAJ just arrived in the spot where few seconds ago there was his kalu palace and now he could not trace anything but his wife…his DEAD WIFE...who was expecting their 1^st baby soon.  In that tragic mishap, one mr.KALU DEVTA was saved and he narrated the whole incident to MAHARAJ as well as the accidental death of his wife MAHARANI.

MAHARAJ was smashed and shattered from the incident.  MANY kalu’s from different part have gathered there and they did kaau kaau (expressing their sorrow).

   MONTHS went he didn’t go to MALKIN.  SHE missed his kaau kaau. Every morning she wakes up and feels the emptiness of KALU.

  Mom where is the BARKING CROW? ‘Her son asked MALKIN

He has gone to his native ‘she replied

   BUT after one whole year, he comes back and was shocked to see the transformation of the place where once he lived with his wife. There was a construction going on.

It was under control of SAHAB.

KALU maharaj went to MALKINS kitchen window and he BARKS (shouts kaau kau for more than an hour)

MALKIN understands it and she offers his chapatti (it was parattha today) but KALU MAHARAJ didn’t accept it, but left the place forever and ever. 

money matters or not?

MONEY MATTERS OR NOT?????..........  

FROM THE HEART OF A COMMON MAN

I don’t have an I-phone, no BBM on my phone, forget about touch screen…I use a small screen phone. Which I use to call my wife and stay in touch with my sweetheart sure, my 5 year old daughter.

But people don’t approve me because I don’t have a smart phone…I wonder what the use of smart phone when I have such a smart brain.  Phone is used to make calls. Isn’t it?

Sometimes I feel left out in my office. My co-workers do neglect me as they neglect our peon sakharam.

I pay rent on time. I receipts to show too. I don’t own a house. My friends do. They pay tax but I only file returns. I don’t have income to pat tax on. They laugh at me. To my status. And to what I wear...

I wear normal cloths but yaar, even I want to wear branded cloths like them but is there any one who can gift me pair of cloths….should be branded though…

I feel bad for all this but I accept the reality.

  I dream for a house to which I can call it my own. I even thought for the nameplate…it will read as MR AND MRS SHARMA….

My wife shraddha would love this. But I stay in a rented apartment. My parents didn’t have anything to carry forward towards my opening balance. I started with NIL..Someday it will raise to at least thousands…I hope so.

    Initially I wanted to be rich but if rich people needs to visit jail once in there life time...then boss m the wrong person. I m happy been what I m today. still I have some dreams. small dreams to be fulfilled so.i want to take my poor wife shraddha , who works 24*7 for me and my daughter back home. she cooks delicious food but still she insists on taking her as well as our daughter to the nearest restaurant. our neighbour mrs.iyer had been there twice and she narrated the whole dinner to my wife twice individually.

I would like to take my wife for dinner sometime soon.

I want to say YES when she asks me whether she could buy cloths from branded shops. I end up saying no with another ultimatum to buy cloths from the next lane from our house….A one cloths center. she makes face which I don’t like to see but i have no other option . she insists on buying LCD..i can’t even afford a brand new color t.v..LCD doesn’t comes in the picture at all. last diwali I got offer from a friend who was shifting to other part of the country to buy his 14 inch color tv. I grabbed this best opportunity and bought it for us. suri enjoys watching doremon,(her favourite cartoon character from last diwali) on it.

I don’t remember exactly when I took my family out for dinner. but shraddha does remember one day when I got her favourite paav bhaaji to feast on. it was my boss’s birthday party and he gave us packets of paav bhaaji at office. I took them home to share it with my wife and suri.

my neighbour mrs.patil teases my wife for not having a single set of jwellery. I hate her for doing such thing to my shraddha. she cries sometime , sometimes she stops talking to her. that’s all she can do with mrs.patil.

I m a simple man living with limited resources. I try to be more generous towards all.  But I too have a heart, please respect him.

Inside I want to be rich, take my wife for dinner occasionally.

buy them branded cloths and jwellery.

one day I will... but for now, money doesn’t matters to me…I have a happy family and smart brain to live with.

regards,

mr.sharma

WHY THIS CHALTA HAI ATTITUDE ?

As i was walking in the footpath near juhu, one man threw coke bottle in the roadside completely neglecting the USE ME dustbin.  As i approached him to pick it up and place it in the dustbin , his answer to me was CHALTA HAI MADAM and he left before i could answer him back. ( i asked myself why aamir khan is wasting his time doing advertisements for incrideble INDIA) THIS people should be penalised. 

Just as i move forward to the chat corner, i asked bhaiyya to give me bhel...

kitna bhaiyya' i asked him (how much )

15 rupees madam' he replied in hurry

opps, i dont have change. i have 20 rs' i said and handed that note to him

he accepted it and gave back me 5 rs note which was completely tore from each corner .

Seeing the note i refused to take it. 

bhaiyaa koi dusra note ya dollar do na' i requested him

madam ye lo..i have only this' he said and started to walk

i lost my interest in eating the bhel and i followed him .

bhaiyaa ye nahi chalega.bhel waapas lo' i said in anger.

arey sab chalta hai 'he said and left

i was left with the broken 5 rupess note with my almost broken face .

since m here two persons used the term ' chalta hai '

what is with chalta hai ?

This CHALTA HAI ATTITUDE will take us no where but to wrong side. I got furious after this encounter with so called  CHALTA HAI . It means MR.KASAB, our beloved guest should be released as he can use the term CHALTA HAI for killing so many innocent lifes.

I can go and disturb the couple sitting at the corner of the footpath and say yaar, CHALTA HAI.. so many things i can do with this CHALTA HAI attitude. Wow ! I m amazed.

BUT is this the only ultimatum? 

one should not forget to where he is standing. its not the chalta hai attitude , its us who brought the stupid concept of chalta hai attitude in us.

Lets eradicate it and spread the awareness . So ,  from next time someone answers back with CHALTA HAI...ask him KAHAN CHALTA  HAI ?

my 1st article.....WHY PEOPLE CRITICIZE ME ?

Appreciation and Depreciation are part and parcel of your life. But have you ever thought why it happens?
 well, its a vicious circle to never end process. Here i have a piece of article to show you.....

   People do appreciate the one who is doing well in his/her life but always criticise the opponent . Have you been there anytime in the latter's place? 
I was, for many times. Believe me its a bad experience every time . You do nothing  & you're scolded but if you do everything to make it perfect still you are scolded . In other way, you think people have the tendency of scolding you? 
No ,they don't. They criticise you because you will improve more. have you ever noticed who criticises you the most? please don't say ...FRIENDS..they never .
 it is your "PARENTS".
They want you to improve good and prove yourself .That's the reason they scolds you and at a time the criticise you.

But when a friend does the same, it hurts our ego. Isn't it? 
I hope you'll will agree to it. We don't want our friend to do that, do we?

I say let them do that. Let people criticise you, do wrong and let others correct you, scold you for doing it wrong. That is how, you will learn to be PERFECT...

I BELIEVE THIS SHORT PIECE OF MINE WILL BRING A CHANGE AND IMPROVED BALANCE IN YOUR BEHAVIOR AND ACT.... 

ALL THE BEST !
