I wish I could be like_____________________ (name of person). This person is special because.............

This is in response to Preeti Shenoy’s  prompt, posted on promotion of her book ‘The Secret Wish List’ which is widely appreciated by the readers.

I wish I could be like…the list is endless since it can be any person with a special ability because this ability or calibre robs off  an important area in the main platform of my mind. Such people inspire and lure me and I adore them, though I scarcely adopt any of their means and methods. Many  an occasion I have felt that I am a misfit in the crowd of such special people. I know very well that not even a grass herb is futile  in the short span of its existence in this world. The microbes,  considered to be so fierce have their little role in salvaging the world from population explosion.   So I too have my part to play in this life drama.

The question is how important your casting is. Is it  befitting your innate potential and prospective? Has anyone acknowledged your capacity and capability, however diminutive it may be? No, the universe is not roomy enough to contain all such negligible talent. And there appears the dream I wish I could be like …..E.g. If I happen to listen to a heart-stealing music, I wish I could be like the musician. If I come about a mind-blowing dance, I wish I could be like the dancer. If I happen to read a book(blog- post also) with commendable content, I wish I could be like the writer. If I get into acquaintance with a person able for laudable oration, I wish I could be like the orator. A skilled mason, an expert cook, a smart anchor, an efficient doctor, a resourceful teacher, a patient person and the like enthuse me a lot. I wish on no account I could be a politician because  I have never been in association with politics and politicians. I find no politician with desirable character and calibre for the present. All make-belief stories they  cook for the  greed to be fulfilled. Neither they love the country nor do they serve it.

If we dip our hand in the Holy Scriptures, we can pick so many mythological personalities from them that  adorn our minds and we then wish we could be like them. Bhishmacharya,  Droupadi, Kunti, Vidura and so many others. will arouse a spirit in us, because they are the embodiments or epitomes  of  powerful specialities. But all cannot be unique because the word uniqueness will vanish,  if all are special. So let it go like this with all the varieties of human nature. Variety is the essence of nature.

Variety and diversity

pour water to the life for

people to live a life

 full of life to shun

all dryness from the life.

(All these are sheer imagination, far away from reality.)

I wish I could touch...............

In response to Preeti Shenoy's prompt No.6 for the promotion of her recent novel  'The Secret Wish List' a wide reader and one of the best sellers.

If I could touch anything special …..I would touch the moon. His charming face always smiles at the beings of the earth. He demonstrates nil any partiality or prejudice to anything. He treats everyone and everything  synonymous. All the organisms enjoy a good haul of gladness from his visage. He at  regular hiatuses looms in the sky spreading and supplying sparkling luminosity to all the progenies of his neighbouring lady, our Mother Earth .The radiance that emerges out of him provides a special glow to the lovers, young couple and the other living-beings and thereby a brilliant glee. The little countenances of kids open wide with wonder and surprise at the very sight of the moon.

  

But the satellite moon if I can touch, I would do certain things there on its soil. I’ll take the whole lot of land(Can it be called land?) into my possession and dispense it to the landless amongst the earth-dwellers. There are people numerous and other creatures aplenty without an inch of land of their own, whereas abundant areas of land  numerous others capture within their confines. People even bewail the demise of the kin not only because of their desertion from them, but of the dearth of cremation ground also. Many people of various sects or castes do not hold a social order for a common crematorium for the carcass. So I’ll help them make their transit to the moon, be they may man or monkey, worm or wasp, rat or rhino and of any kind of life-forms. Equilibrium and equality; harmony and unity and co-operation and collaboration will be the slogan. Complete contentment will be the motto. Then the foodless, penniless, under-clothed and ill-healthy ones will own domiciles  with all the luxuries-only manual and natural. A healing touch for the hearts that bleed due to the suffocation  of sufferings, will create a heaven on the moon.

.

Oh! Your eye-brows become bow-like, don’t they? Where will they all acquire the essential resources from? Don’t be panicky.  If I obtain an opportunity to touch the moon that means some miracle would happen. And that miracle would turn the satellite conducive with air and water and agricultural produce for living and livelihood respectively. A wild imagination occurs here, doesn’t it?

Sarala.

‘I wish I had one more chance to……. ‘

institute my life from where I initiated. And then I would have accomplished all these activities, which still remain afresh in my mind. Yea, I would have rectified the ill-doings if I had a few in my original life.

To be a little kid to enjoy all the mystery and anonymity of nature with exciting vision-the dawning day, the growing morning, the glowing noon, the fading sun and the rising moon. I would spare a bewildered look at the tall trees and weeds tiny; hushing breeze and roaring thunder and blinking lightning and twinkling stars. I would hang on the corner of my mother’s sari and the collar of my father’s shirt, filled with enthusiasm in my eyes and prattle a lot in my lips about topics of attraction. I would exhibit all my obstinacy for all the yearnings to be fulfilled. I would wait for clasps and kisses from elders and return those to them with love.I would play with my friends, toys and boys without any stress and strain and tension and apprehension.

TO attain my teen obeying my parents and observing their strength closely to be a follower of theirs is really worth-scoring. I would care, concentrate and discharge all my duties and then argue for my rights.  I would learn compassion for the poor and ailing, destitute and desperate and count the boons and blessings that God has poured on me. I would evade myself much away from rowdies and rogues. I would be triumphant in fighting against my own weaknesses by installing in me, values and virtues only. 

In adulthood, I would put into practice every good lesson learnt. I would be kind, merciful, duty-minded and affectionate in all my rolls and roles of womanhood and eventually turn to be an old woman immersed in service to the needy and spirituality for the self to acquire bliss and ecstasy.

What a foolish and unfeasible idea!  If at least a substantial number of people allow all these qualities of excellence to sustain in them 'what a wonderful world it would be!'. Any or every silly person can imagine and dream to have any castle in his or her life and so also me.

I wish everyone loved ..........................................

 In response to Preeti Shenoy's prompt..... I wish everyone loved our own life.To facilitate this we should love each other, all others and all other things.

Of course we may find it difficult because many a time others' drawbacks only  first fall into our eyes, despite the shortcoming of ourselves. 

But if we succeed in overlooking others' demerits in the bright light of their merits, definitely we can love them.And also let's have a comparison of defects,ours with theirs, on an honest analysis, we can find that our both the legs are infected and theirs only one leg.

Besides if we can love  the nature and its resources, the horrible human devastation of nature will come to a dearth.If we keep every thing in tact in the ring of love, the heaven will be here on this planet itself.

All these are feasible only if everyone loved  everyone's life.

The one thing that I wish everyone would learn is.................

This is in response to a prompt by Mrs.Preeti Shenoy.



The one thing that I wish everyone would learn is  patience in thinking, putting the thoughts into action,awaiting the result,interaction with others so that B.P will not go high for anybody, one gets into in acquaintance with.
