Parenting our own parents.

This is a very unique & wonderful experience of life when we are parenting those who have parented us our entire childhood.
Parenting our own parents!
Childishness that happens at older age is absolutely normal when parents start demanding more of paternal care from their own children's.

Right from reminding their medicines, their spectacles on the head, the plays, the serials or TV shows time & of course answering their same questions several times & much more....
The most interesting thing that happen while this parenting is when we start listening willingly or unwillingly sometime to very very old songs say....flash back Gurudutt songs ....oh! Some songs those were sung when even our mom & dad were young waiting for each other..uff!
To the wonder  time here reverses to such extent that with those whom we use to go holding hands while crossing the trafficked roads & to the gardens, playgrounds to play today we are holding their hands to make them cross the roads safely & they start staring us for their morning & evening walks......

Those were the days when we use to invite our friends at home just because our mom makes so tasty pakoda's & tasty evening snacks to let our friends know how pampered are we but now while parenting our own parents this gives a very new experience when our parents get their age mates just because they want them to know how caring & respectful their children's are or i must accept the truth by saying to let their age mates know that how they control their children's at this old age as well!! :-)

Their every single sneeze & every small pain puts us beside their bed sitting & doctoring, diagnosing & over that they would pretend to be more ill when it comes to spending some time specially to go out with us for a movie or their favourite events or to attend any family functions leaving us with no option other than taking a day off from office :-/  just as we pretended to have fever or stomach pain for taking a school leave to go to a circus in the city or zoo with them.

Truly speaking inspite of all, these are very special moments of lives for them as well as for us....Here we are experiencing something which they have gone through past so many years & on the contrary they are experiencing all those joys those we had with them since our childhood.
The pleasure of exchanging these experiences itself is a very pleasurable experience!
I believe the sense of responsibility & maturity that we gain while this parenting with all these practicalities is going to be very helpful for us our entire lives, specially when we are parents ourselves.

So, Let this experience be such joyous ...& seriously its really amazing feeling to be parent to our own parents :-)

Good night & Happy blogging!

We are never grown till we are child again.

Who says with growing age we all grow?? The truth is that we just go on adding years & years to our lives....Otherwise the child in us stays forever.
You might be wondering which child am i talking about?? So let me elucidate that i am talking about the child in all of us.
The child which appears every often in us specially with those whom we are more comfortable with & from whom we are pampered giving us the feel of maternal & paternal tenderness.
To know here is that their are two children in us i am about to mention

  1. The grown up child within us &
  2. Child who is not grown.

Grown up child in us is the one who is directed & who follows our brain showing the sign of every maturity needed at par with our growing age.
But at the same time our not grown child is the one who is more influenced by our heart just like the title of the film "Dil toh bachcha hai ji".
The relation between these two children in us is just like our brain & heart sometime the brain plays its role & sometime our heart....but not to forget that both of their role plays very important part in our lives.
One who matures us & the other who makes us child again making the balance between these two very crucial.
Never let either of these to rule or over rule other, consequently let them play their roles as & when rightly assigned to them by you.
So, Make them appear when their appearance is needed as per the situations of life & the people we are associated with.
More like role plays we can be child to them who are too matured to tackle it & parenting those who are more comfortable to be child with us.
We are never grown till we are child again, Its always good that we don't try to over control child in us...Let it play, enjoy & have fun as it does because our grown up child innate is the one who will take care of it all time just like the grown up siblings in a family does towards all the mischief's of their youngest by controlling & guiding towards the set ethics & who understands the child being a very joyous companion to be with.
Eventually, Don't be matured all the time its good & natural to be child  sometime making life interesting with all its fun & to live it to the fullest ........after all who amongst us don't miss their childhoods :-) & don't like to be child again!! 

Bye & Happy Blogging!

Single cup of tea made by her man means a world to a woman.

Cooking has always been a special part of my life......its more like a stress relieving pill for me.
I enjoy most of my time cooking experimenting some thing new every time i cook.
My experience says that for every woman its very helpful & revitalising which not only satisfies the stomach by eating what is been made but also satisfying our soul's need of nurturing our loved ones as feeding people whom you love whom you like is the best way to love them & being their  :-) 
How good it would be if this could also be understood by the opposite sex.... men, Why man don't gives it a thought once that if he prefers his woman to cook delicious food for him & the one who cooks food well is the one who manages to get the boarding pass to his heart.........then how it would be if he also try to get this one for him???
I mean.. If for women cooking for men is needed just to care or impress them through feeding good tasty food & win their hearts than why cant a man cook to win his woman's heart??
Simply speaking we women also do expect our men to cook sometime for us.......Well i know i may sound like a female chauvinist  too sarcastic here but its the bitter truth & a hidden suspense of every woman's need.
Only difference is that some women may accept & speak this up & some may not but somewhere sometime just a cup of tea or a coffee made by  man means a world to her as well.
Not being biased towards same gender i must also say that at the same time its the responsibility of every woman also to make sure that she manages to make her man do this not for dominating him but to feel his love knowing well the limitations of his self respect & without hurting his so called male ego which he sets aside just for the sake of his love towards her.
So i suggest that this could be managed well if it is understood by both of them that inspite of the gender differences their both emotional nurturing needs are same & none of them should let their ego's intervene between their way of cooking for each other & take it as a sign of dominating.....but as a beautiful way of loving more each other unconditionally.
Finally concluding that let not the cooking be the only way of we women but also of men to love & nurture the women of their lives......& seriously just a single cup of tea with love served to your loved one will make a big loving difference & mean a world to her :-) 
I am sure after reading this if you haven't ever tried before but next time you would love to do this not because you are being dominated by your woman but because you want to love & mean a world to her!!

Good Night & Happy blogging!

Intro to my evolution.

Well..... Writing after such a long time is amazingly confusing! Reason being unable to decide upon where to start from & where to end.
In spite of all feeling really excited to finally start with it :)
After seeing & observing my self expressions while reading blogs of some other bloggers, I personally prefer keeping blog's language understandably simple & crucially to the points making it very easy to read & not boring at all ......at least to people like me who like to read & write too less!
The 1st article i preferred writing on myself because that would only relate my rest all articles to me by letting know what am i upto these days & why i have landed here?
So, Quickly jotting down my evolution ........

  • Right now i am enjoying being away from my origin place with small but very important part of my family "Mom & Dad".
  • I am spending this time of my life in office working, cooking for posting at vibhaskitchen.in, singing, dancing, caring & giving lots of time to my lovely parents, gardening, shopping & of course this blogging phew! too many to be listed.
&...........Thats it!

Wow! Just in two lines i am living my life...... So easy to explain & happy to be lived :-)

I think this much is sufficient for today.....because writing about self is what i seriously eludes but would come up & write some new interesting articles in my next blogging sessions.....

Till then Bye!

Happy Blogging.

Back to Blogging........after 5 years

Wow! I never thought i would be back to blogging so soon........Say after 5 years :-)
Their being no reason except the laziness to write or.............. may be nothing to write.
But gradually when life starts filling up with so many unsaid, unshared pals , moments that sometime it really becomes so difficult to hold them all together with you so ultimately you land up sometime  somewhere to share with all or say some one through any mode which makes sure that what you have to say is getting said.........
Hope i may not fall short of words or reasons to write & would really enjoy writing & keeping my blog as updated as i manage to keep my Facebook profile!!
So........Write to you soon.
Bye till then.

Rgds,
