Time has really changed, even for our kids

Anonymous 04:46 Add Comment
There are many things that we all enjoyed and grew up with, but they are almost gone in this rapidly modernizing digital era. There are numerous things we as children grew up doing and enjoying to the fullest.
Each generation enjoys its own set of awesomeness, there are a few things that we enjoyed doing as the kids of the 90s, but it’s quite sad to see all those things losing their existence. The kids of today are not even aware of these aspects. They will just not understand how much pleasure we grew up in enjoying and playing around them. There are many great things they enjoy today, but I would just have to quote that we being the kids of the 90s enjoyed both the worlds together, didn’t we?

*All about letters
We all have written and received letters to our relatives, friends, class-mates and in relationships. The excitement it generated and the way things were expressed, with a hope that someone would be eager t here from us was majestic!

*Games
We played a lot, I mean literally. While we used to be indoors, we enjoyed a lot of great and interesting board games like scrabble, monopoly, business etc. And the moment we stepped out in the evenings, there was a huge list to choose form, like hopscotch, tap etc. The play-station games can never match with them and its pace.

*The common Phone-wired one
This generation would hardly get to be talking on this curly wired phone. They have been seeing mobiles all around them ever since they have been born. The excitement to attend the phone, unknowingly, apprehending about who it is on the other end, this is a feeling I guess just we understood!

*Family oriented movies
The Bollywood industry has evolved as well. The kind of films been made now are very different from the ones we enjoyed watching over and over again.

*Family Picnics
Nowadays, weekends are spent either watching movies at the theatres or playing in the mall play zones, precisely all the time, our kids are bound inside the air-conditioned environment. While we enjoyed playing and jumping around in the Children’s park, India gate etc. We enjoyed home cooked packed food that we ate together with our friends and cousins at the picnic gardens.

*Cartoon Network
We almost was in love with this channel altogether. We enjoyed watching almost all the cartoons that this channel, starting from the Tom and Jerry shows to the Power Puff girls, all was simply amazing!

*Visiting Grandparents
The day the vacations started, we use to pack out bags and head straight over our Nani house. The sort of a VIP treatment we received there, they pampered us to the core, while there was no money involved, just pure love and affection use to work the magic.

*Library Visits
The connection we had with books was way too big. We all loved the experience of picking up a book from the school, collage or nearby library. Nowadays books are either bought from fancy book stores or downloaded from the internet.

There are many more things we enjoyed, while they don’t even exist in the time of today. Well such is life, always keeps running, changing, evolving, developing while we just need to feel lucky to be around and witnessing the best era of the modern world, the 90s.






Man cycled to Sweden to meet his wife

This is a story that would break all the norms of romance, love and commitment. Love being a commitment, has no limitations, but the people who break all the boundaries just for loving someone are the real humans. Once we have more such people around, the world would indeed become a better place today that is suffering from hatred, cheating, infidelity and a lack of commitment, seeking the ample options available to the human kind.


This is a story about a poor man who fell in love with a rich girl. The girl has to go back to her country for obvious reasons. However the boy makes a promise to come and visit her there. With time, he struggles each day in order to lead his life, fulfill his commitments while planning to live the dream of uniting with the love of his life.

As even after trying hard, he was not able to create a situation of having enough money to go and meet her, he decides to try and just doesn’t give up. In order to keep up with his promise, he grabs a cycle and starts his journey while crossing through 8 countries to meet the love of his life!

Okay, no matter this might sound like a story of a romantic epic Bollywood film; however it remains to be a reality that can be made into a film for sure.

PK the guy behind the story has yet another time proved that a person can actually achieve all that he desires for; all he need is to be determined about it.

Pak was born in a deprived weaver family of Odisha, Dhenkanal in the year 1949. They were considered untouchable, while PK was a talented artist. But, his family never had enough money in order to spend and invest in his education. He faced a lot of condemnation owing to the feared caste system in our country.


In the year 1971, he joined College of Art in the capital city of our country and started to paint, and in the due course acquired fame for the portraits he created.

In 1975, 19-year-old Charlotte Von Sledvin, who was studying in London, came to know about his talent and came down to meet him all the way to India in order to get her portrait made. As it was destiny that attached a string uniting both of them together, he was stunned by her great looks and beautiful appearance; while she got attracted to his absolute simplicity. It started something called love!

Charlotte then took to be an Indian, while taking over the Indian name Charulata while they both married abiding by the customary ceremonies.

As the time came for Charlotte to leave, she asked her husband to accompany her back to her country where they could both live happily and lead a comfortable life.

While at that time PK was still studying and had his academic commitments, he asked for some more time and did not even accept tickets from his wife. He promised her to meet her on his own expense.
While both of them kept in touch through writing letters. After much struggle, PK could never gather the amount required to leave for her country, so he decided to bridge this gap between them on a bicycle.

He started from New Delhi, while crossing through Amritsar; he entered Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Germany, Australia and then Denmark. This journey is not as simple as it looks; he was actually riding all this while on his cycle that broke down a couple of times while there were many days with no food at all.

It took him 4 months and 3 weeks of this tiresome and long journey, before he could reach Gothenburg, Sweden.

It’s been 40 years since they have been married, Dr PK Mahanandia is the Odiya Cultural Ambassador of India to Sweden and is living happily ever since then with his wife Charlotte, while the couple have 2 amazing children in Sweden. His village that once sidestepped him being an untouchable, at the moment gives him a great welcome each time goes there.

“Now this is what we call Love”

The girl in the days passing by took charge of the situation, took towards physiotherapy, and started learning to walk yet another time in life, although unplanned. The biggest fear she had in mind was regarding her favorite sport she had been passionate about that was playing Badminton. All these years right form the childhood she had been passionate about the game, while at the moment she could not even walk straight, leaving playing to just out of the question.

There is a lot of water due to heavy rainfall in Chennai that has managed to break a 100 year old record, creating havoc in the city and making life extremely tough for its inhabitants. Offices, shops, schools all are closed, while making life extremely restless and slow, however even during such a tough situation, people in Chennai are extremely positive, full of generous humanity and helping in their nature.
It looks like as if the flood and the tougher conditions have extended a positive vibe in the city, wherein the people have joined hands and helped each other throughout this tough and difficult time.
We have attempted to bring you closer to the situations while the common people have put in heroic potential and made life easier and spread out a message of love and humanity to the entire world, keeping a watch on the movements in Chennai:

*Entertainment places turned into NGOs
As they say the entertainment world is all about business, profit, glamour etc, the Phoenix mall has proven the saying incorrect by opening up their mall space to make space for accommodating 500 people who were struggling outside in the nearby areas.


*Indian Coast Guard is edgily helping and rescuing people over and over again, bringing the much needed respite to the survivors.

*The old Madras bakery
This popular eatery has a few locations in the city, where in they are not at all taken aback with the chaos and the water all around. Get prepared to enter for a sip of piping hot chai and some sandwiches to give respite, while you can stay indoors until the rain subsides.

*The traffic police is as alert as ever
You would find the various traffic policemen on their regular duties, even they are equally drained and drenched and standing half way in the water, still the clogged water has not deterred their spirits.
Although the residents are in deep fear, along with more than a recorded number of 200 lives washed away in the water, the spirit and the unity Chennai has displayed is completely worth it.

The situation is quite emotional with dramatic at the moment, there are numerous of people who has lost their loved ones, and their homes. The water levels have soared over night, making people feel lost and in danger all of a sudden.
While we sitting here can just not feel the exact pain these pain have seen as well as gone through. However all we can do is pray for things to get better, and put forward the best in our abilities in order to help the ones without homes, food and water stuck out there in the chaos, nature has shaped us for them.

So it’s a human appeal to all you wonderful people out there to put aside the usual work and deadlines and come ahead and help the ones in need for any sort of a support you guys can offer that could ease out their sufferings.

Are we changing?

Anonymous 01:50 Add Comment
Well the world around is changing a lot, and so are we. We have evolved technically, financially, emotionally as well as mentally. We have become all the more practical, mentally strong, independent and make a lot of choice related to our likes, dislikes, choices, options and much more.

So in this rapidly evolving society, cultures, habits, food, clothes, almost everything under the sun has gone under a makeover!

Do you remember the last time you visited your relatives? But you would surely remember the menu on offer in the club last month, right…. So here arises a question that has lost its prominence, however its sure still exists!
Are we really advancing or have we lost the path and track that aged back to our culture, our upbringing, and the things our grandparents and parents taught us, the meaning of love, the trust in respect and the real happiness in sharing all that we had.


So can we really say that we are technically getting advanced and modern, well not sure about it? Gadgets have take the position, where hobbies and friends used to be, so can’t say more about being modern or getting trapped in the vicious circle of machined elements around us, guiding us and keeping us away from the essence of life.

So, here we have jotted down a few aspects that guide our lives, making us advanced and progressive, while being connected to our roots at the same time:

*Use watsapp for forwarding jokes, messages or simply your thoughts, but care to call your friends and relatives on their special days instead to texting.
You little gesture makes a difference in the other person’s special moments like birthdays, anniversaries etc.

*Keep Face book a medium to connect, not communicate with yor social circle, do plan get together, meets, picnics, luncheons, dinners etc, be modern however keep your roots alive.

*Use your Sunday socializing, living your hobbies, indulging into helping our others at least twice a month, is that much of a big deal?

*We recommend you to peep above your smart phones, while you’re on the go, appreciate the natural surroundings, observe the beauty in different people around you, it always would make you aware of the real world, apart from the reel world.

*Get yourself associated with what you like, this way you would spend some of the time learning or pursuing what you like for instance painting, singing, dancing, playing an instrument, rather anything under the sun to take you off those amoled screens for sure.

*Maintain an off time each day, keep it minimal however stick on to it, making it your resolution, like take 30-60 minutes off, wherein during this time, you would be off your desktops, laptops, ipads, Smartphone, anything and everything digital.

Life always evolved and we had been living without these gadgets most part of our lives, so hereby now when the digital world has become a part of us, it is evidently possible for us to at least maintain cordial relations around and sneak in some of the me-time, without the hassle of screens all around us, what do you think?

"Since Modi has come in, well being has totally vanished. India is on the edge. On the off chance that PM Modi does not handle well being, India's economy joined with rising populace is not reasonable," he said. Horton said that India's principle issues are an absence of interest in the general well being framework and the development of an unregulated private segment. "What's more, this unevenness between the unregulated private segment - and the nature of consideration by and large shocking - contrasted and people in general framework that is attempting to meet the requests of the rising populace," he said. Taking note of that India as of now burns through 1% of its total national output (GDP) on general well being, Horton approached Modi to expand this figure, utilize his own administration in taking off widespread heath scope, decrease tyke and maternal mortality, and location the scourge of non-transferable infections.
