Do we really njoy?

general trend of a human being from the normal indian or kerala culture is like you in the childhood he plays and learns or tries to capture the first n class and goes for scoring high marks (he didnt realize that its the best days of his life).....then goes for studies forgetting his old pals ...and loved ones from childhood ......meeting new guys and planning to capture the fantasies of the world ........getting facinated by the opposite grps ....falling n luv...(some people only n this grp where they r njoing the life for some time)...running behind money ....bringing up the children ,,,,jobs ...profiles ...tension ...and finally...when he retires ...he starts living ......and realizing that its almost the end ..and you have forgotton to live ......Is this the way we want to be ?


I was wondering on this aspect .....What I feel s better.......... we live on each moment....

Valiyettan tied a knot ....

after a period of one yr one more brothersian got married .....Now it is seen to be epidemic..once in a while somebody is getting married ....and my tasks are increasing which includes the ticket arrangements, having food 2 or 3 times and finally get together, gifts, and collecting the old pals ...This time valiyettan decided to surprise us and marriage was organized in a months gap ....but even we could reach the destin. Initially marriage was planned on fine Sunday morning at 10.30 ..i started my journey from calicut by 6am ...planned to reach there by 9am ...but on the journey mash called and informed the surprising new ...marriage is pre-poned to 8.30am ...sad ....but only on one hope i resumed the journey to have SADYA....Guruvayoor by 9.am ...sharp ,..luckily marriage was delayed by 45mnts ...i could attend the function ....mash didnt reach on time ...chaps came just after marriage ...me chaps and valiyettan had food together ...brkfast ...mashs arrival after half an hr ....police caught him for jumping the barrier ....kannante nadanam ...i could recollect some good old memories after seeing my school pal ....went to room for rest ...functions again ....in the auditoriam ....had the gr8 Sadya....we three mash chaps and me decided to leave ...as i wanted to come back to bangalore on the same day....got the bus ....after the chit chat with chaps reached calicut by 3.....left to bangalore on the same day.
