Adoption......

I once read in Linda Goodman's book that people with the sun sign-Aries tend to adopt people rather than befriend them....

Hmmmmm.... many many many years later methinks that I agree.

The main problem in this scenario is that the person who gets adopted often doesn't realize that he has been adopted and then ensues a comedy of errors and often a tragedy of high proportions.....
All this in because of expectations and no expectations I guess...

So I think that it is best to go slow and not help people unless they ask for help, we should just watch people falling into holes and then rush forward only when they cry out aloud( aka Mahi..)     .....Naaah! This is something that I have never done and will never do, I shall always warn the person that there is a pit before they fall in, and if the person feels that my warning just slowed them down, just too bad ya!

Saw GOW yesterday and was so impressed, what a movie, too blasting good....

Also am two-thirds done with my chanting...tried to chant without the text and failed so miserably, so all I can conclude is that I have probably developed some sort of a mental block for that chant, coz I certainly was able to memorize other stuff....hmmmm.. Maybe Miss Marple can tell me how to get to the bottom of this...

Thappad

Thappad The prelude to the aria that is Thappad, is a dizzying runabout of a homemaker's humdrum daily chores. It serves to establish the roles each character has established for themselves. The husband played by newbie, Pavail Gulati is wonderfully self-obsessed and completely oblivious to anything but his own needs. The wife played by Tapsee Pannu ( as if we didn't know! Ha ha!) is on the other end of the spectrum. She is hyper aware of the needs of all those around her and revels in being needed and being able to be of service. The nuances that are written into the script are sheer brilliance. Consider the opening montage introducing the main characters to us. The wife being driven about, the girlfriend being received with love and finally a super successful lawyer finding freedom in hanging out a car window. The conversation that ensues between all of them, sketches skillfully the back stories of the lot of them. The movie is far from being a chest beating comment...
Protests! Candle-light vigils! Banners! Placards! Demonstrations! Human Chains! We can do it all .... but the question is how often can we do it,and why should we have to do it at all? And why do we do it at all when our memories are so short! Here today ....And gone tomorrow seems to be the order of the day.But if this has genuinely sparked something inside us then we should keep that spark alive. We need to become a people that we can be proud of... Let us indeed protest....... but protest the indifference that has crept into our lives. Light a candle..... but do it to dispel the darkness that has engulfed our hearts. Wave a banner....... but let it carry a message of love for your close ones. Hold a placard....... but write appreciation on it for all that is good and pure. Demonstrate...... show that you care. Make human chains.... but a hold a hand to help someone,to console, to offer solace. Love and Peace
