High on Highway

/ Guttu / Leave a comment

I was trying to think of a good title to the post. The above title is a short story in a movie which consist of ten stories put together. No need to guess that the movie turned out to be a mess. Unlike the movie I don’t want this post to be a mess. It is about drinking alcoholic drinks and finding yourself lying somewhere near the gutters.

Have you got drunk anytime? If you have then you’ll know the good feelings behind such incidence. I am suddenly talking about this is because I heard a talk related to this yesterday. (And you were thinking I am drunk too??) I thought of writing about this. Who knows if someone reads this and changes his mind and stops drinking. That would lessen the stress on alcoholic rehabilitation centers. (I got that right after some practice.) Continue reading →

It’s festival time

/ Guttu / 4 Comments

Starting from today there will be a festival of our god Ganesh. This festival is known as Ganesh chaturthi. We bring the statue of Ganesh and worship him for certain number of day. At our house it’s for 5 days. So I won’t be there for 5 days. Even if I am online it’ll be hardly for long time. Wishing all those who celebrate this festival Happy Ganesh Chaturthi.

Poor People

/ Guttu / 1 Comment

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.”

It all depends on how we look at things. There is always some positive in the negative. We have to find it and realize it. That can make a huge difference in our lives. It takes some effort to do it. But it’s worth.
