Fear of "Wednesday"...

No dear...i am not writing any horror film story....
This is true story of my daughter Sobia...when she was
a little girl...a K.G class student....there used to be spelling
tests in their schools and believe me little children were
used to memorise such tough words....
So..i used to help little Sobia in learning the spellings...
Once, she had to learn days name....when i was trying to
let her learn....she learnt all the names...from Monday to
Sunday...except 'Wednesday'...
I tried to convince her that it was not that hard to learn...
she had learnt so many tough words...this was a very simple one.
But it was of no use....she just refused to learn it...
She started crying....my God...it took quite a few hours just to
convince her to give it a try.... and she did...and...wow...!
she learnt it in few seconds...i was happy that i didn't lost my patience...
I explained to her... give a try before just refusing to do something...
Even now when she says...that she can't do any particular thing....
I always say her...don't repeat the 'Wednesday' story again...!!
Moral of the story...don't just refuse the challenges coz they
seem to be tough...give a try...you'll sure succeed...!!
Refusing to accept the challenge is game lost before attempting to play....
Don't be a loser...Be a winner...!!

Why God made Daughters...

When God created Daughters...

HE took very special care to find

the precious treasures that would

make them sweet and fair....

HE fashioned them from sugar

and little bit of spice...

HE gave them sunny laughter

and everything that's nice...

God smiled when HE made daughters,

because HE knew...

HE had created love and happiness,

for every Mom and Dad.

For all Daughters -- Happy Daughter's day..!!

MY DAUGHTER MY LOVE

Rise like a Sun,

Shine like a Star.

Bloom like a Rose,

Smile like a Flower.

Fly like a Bird, 

Swim like a Swan. 

Dance like a Peacock, 

Sing like a Quail. 

Stay cool like the Breeze, 

Be great like an Ocean. 

Reach high like a Mountain, 

Be kind like the Nature. 

Listen to your heart, 

Do always what is right, 

We are there at your side, 

Be happy all your LIFE.

Today...had fun with 'tuk tuk'..!!

It was a fine morning today...Sobia was home...her Saturdays

are off...So we were planning to go somewhere....but where??

it was hard to decide...We were doing breakfast and thinking

what to do...and at the same time electricity went off....

hmmm...and in the newspaper it was written that

the electricity will come at 5 pm... O My God..!!

So we decided lets go to sector 17...we will roam around do

window shopping...eat and do shopping as well then come

back home....so that we will not have to
be at home without electricity for long.....

Then we...me and Sobia...got ready...called Radio Auto...

the 'tuk tuk' auto service in our tricity... :)

It is pink, cute and 'tuk tuk'...hehehehe....

It was so much of fun...when we sat in it...everyone was

looking at us...wherever we went...kids were pointing towards us....

It is new thing in our city so people are not familiar with it...

So we went to sector 17... did shopping....had fun...

had our lunch there...and came back home....we got too tired...

took rest...in heat...without electricity....coz it came after 6 pm...

My legs are aching till now...

Altogether it was a nice day... :)

BEHIND EVERY MAN, THERE'S A SMART WOMAN..!!

Barbara Walters, of 20/20, did a story on gender roles in Kabul,

Afghanistan, several years before the Afghan conflict.

She noted that women customarily walked five paces

behind their husbands. She recently returned to Kabul and

observed that women still walk behind their husbands.

Despite the overthrow of the oppressive Taliban regime,

the women are happy to maintain the old custom.
Ms. Walters approached one of the Afghan women and asked,

'Why do you now seem happy with an old custom that you

once tried so desperately to change?'

The woman looked Ms. Walters straight in the eyes,

and without hesitation said, 'Land Mines.' Moral of the story is....

(no matter what language you speak or where you go)

BEHIND EVERY MAN, THERE'S A SMART WOMAN...!

I wrote these lines few days after my surgery...3 months later I remember what I had gone through on that day..I thank Allah that I am fine now...

I LOVE MY PAIN
Going through another surgery was very very painful,
terrible for me and my family. It was my 4th major operation.
leave the small happenings...which i have experienced in my life.
(woh to hota hi rehta hai)...after a major surgery you have to
recover from 0% health to 100% again...
that takes a lot of time depending the type of your ailment.
But i cherish my painful days...its true...
because it makes me a better human.
when i see others wounded or in same situation...
i can understand their pain better....
You get to know who really cares for you...
Those who really care for you will be with you at the time of
your need... while others will not bother to waste time asking
about your health. The family bonding becomes thicker....
your loved once become more loving and caring...
Day one after surgery when i was in great pain...
i saw my daughter and her papa..worried...
there was pain in their eyes...emotional pain...
they cant see me in that situation...but they have to...
there was no choice for them...
i was not able to move my body...it was paralysed due to the
spinal injection i had before operation...
that whole night i vomited...i was almost half dead...
but the pain gave me the sense that i am alive...
and my loved ones are there to care for me...
i don't have to worry....my daughter...only 17 yrs old...
acted as my mother...as if she was helping a child...
and my husband as a guardian...
I am thankful to all my lovely people those were there for me...
emotionally and physically...
I pray that no one ever gets any type of painful experiences...
but its true...
I love my pain coz it makes me a better person...
luv u all.... :)

A story of a boy...smart or dumb you decide..

A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his Customer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
The barber puts a dollar in one hand and two quarters in the other,
Then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?"
The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
Later, when the customer leaves,
he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.
"Hey, son! May I ask you a question?
Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar?"
The boy licked his cone and replied,
"Because the day I take the dollar, the game's over!"

I don't want to cry

Again it was a long lonely day for me...nothing much to do....
Sobia told me to watch Twilight...so i watched the movie today...
It was a nice movie...but it lacked something at the end...
On the whole it was a good movie...

Even today our society's electricity was playing hide n seek....
why don't they fix the problem properly.....
I don't know whats their problem...!

So...all alone from 8:30 am to 6 pm...no one to talk...
nothing much to do...no one can understand how i feel...
what i go through ...i many times cry...all alone...
but there is nobody to listen either...
Now i think...i should have prepared for this before...
But now what to do....i have to start my life again....
as my blogs headline.. 'A New Beginning' ...
If i start something new...it will be a real new beginning for me....
There's a saying -- "Life begins at forty".
hahahaha.... am i forty yet??
Keep guessing...!
Till we meet again...
luv ya...

What to do??

Its back to normal life again....
Sobia and Farooque both are busy and i am all alone at home as usual.
Farooque my husband...a dedicated person, he loves his work very much. So, most of the time he comes late from office...work pressure my dear... and he can't just leave his work and come home.
My only child..my dear daughter Sobia...she is now in college... first year engineering... she just loves everything about computers... that's why she is doing CSE - computer science engineering.
Hmmm...so now you know both are too busy...
When Sobia was in school...till 12th my life was too busy...
I used to drop and pick Sobia from school, coaching.. etc...
But now... lets leave this topic... it will make me sad again....
So..now i am all alone at home..not much work to do...
i am thinking to do something...
First i thought i'll do some online work....
i searched...searched..and searched...in newspapers and on net but... i am confused now....don't know which is genuine site for online work...
lets see what happens....
i am still thinking what to do...how to utilise my free time....
something which suits me and it is not too tiring either....
Please suggest...... you all are most welcome.... :)
Now i am going to have my breakfast....its too late... and i am too hungry...
cya later...bye..tc...
