The Best Marraige Anniversary Gift to Parents

A lady with age around 35 is walking to and fro in the classroom with a book in hand and speaking very softly looking into each eye of the children sitting around her on wooden chairs. No doubt she is the teacher and a board above the class room entrance is showing Standard IV. Sunny can hear the teacher say in her soft tone, "Dear children, ....... is the best gift that you can give to your parents on any occasion relating to them, say it is their birthdays, marriage days, fathers day, mothers day, etc. They would  no doubt be surprised and happy with your wonderful gift. How happy you pupil feel seeing the happiness on your loving parent's faces......" and there is a ring of the bell indicating the end of the school hours. So, the Moral Science teacher stoped her lesson and waved bye to the children and wished them Happy Weekend. All the children in a single tone said "Thank You, Teacher" and started dispersing. Then Sunny heard someone calling him as "Hey Sunny, come on wake up, we need to start...... Hellooo.....". Sunny opened his eyes slowly and found his sister waking him up from sleep. Sunny stopped dreaming about yesterdays classroom, and became alert of what needs to be done according to his plan which he discussed with his sister yesterday night before going to sleep.

Sunny is a young little boy studying fourth class in a school with international standards which gives equal importance to both studies and extra curricular activities. His sister is also studying  sixth class in another school. Today is his parent's marriage day and he planned to give a surprise along with his sister in the evening celebration party. They all lived in an apartment in 1st floor and his grand parents live in the ground floor. So he first got ready and then he and his sister had their lunch directly since they woke up late as it is weekend. Both of them ate in a hurry which made his mom feel unusual because everyday they are fussy and takes more time to finish their meals. Immediately after lunch, both of them ran down stairs to their grand parents apartment. So, they went to their grandma and Sunny told his idea to his grandma. His grandma is very surprised at the boy's enthusiasm and thought of guiding him. All of them entered the kitchen. Then she showed a bottle. Sunny can see a half white colored powder in the bottle. He asked "What is this powder grandma". Grandma smiled at the innocence of the little boy and replied, "This is called as All purpose flour and is the main ingredient to prepare what you asked for dear". Both the children replied in a single tone, "Oh! is it? k..." Then Sunny told, so this is the one my teacher mentioned in her list.....and he took a paper from his pocket and opened it and found that name. Grandma asked him, "What is that dear?". Sunny quietly replied that he got the recipe from his teacher after his class yesterday. Grandma took the paper and was surprised at the boys preplanned nature. So, Grandma thought of following the recipe in the paper because it is Sunny's collection. She mentioned that some of the ingredients are not available with her and ticked them. Immediately Sunny took the paper and headed towards the entrance. His Grandma shouted, "Sunny dear where are you going?" Sunny replied that he is going to the grocery shop to bring the things which are not  available. Grandma entered the living room slowly due to old age, shouting back "Wait Dear! we shall send Ramu". Sunny replied, no grandma i like to do it myself. Grandma asked "How will you get things dear. You need money right! let me give you". Sunny shouted "No Grandma, I saved my pocket money which dad and mom give me sometimes to buy chocolates in school stores" and ran off. His sister also accompanied him. This time Grandma stood amazed at the boys character. Outside, Ramu the driver saw both the children running out of the gate and asked, "Sunny Sir, do you need me, shall i accompany you?". Sunny shouted back "No Ramu, let us go" and both ran laughing.

Both of them went to nearby departmental stores, just in the next street. There are many rows in which groceries are arranged. Sunny and his sister did not know in which section they have to search and stood still thinking which way to go. A store attender observed the two children and went to them and asked "Hey kids, do you want any help?" Sunny innocently handed him the list and told, we need the things which are ticked. The shopkeeper smiled and patted him on his head softly and told, "Follow me children". The store keeper collected the required things and handed the bill and the groceries to Sunny and his sister. They paid the bill and left. Grandma is waiting at the door. She checked the things they got and told "So, the next is to prepare super fine sugar which I have done in mixer when you left to stores". And she showed them the bowl of powdered sugar. So, both the children kept all the required things which they bought and also which are available with grandma on the kitchen table and sat on the high stools. Sunny took a bowl and started reading the paper again and said aloud "So, First is we have to put half cup of all purpose flour into the bowl". Saying this he did that. Then he put half cup of powdered sugar, 2 table spoons of cocoa, a pinch of salt, 1/4 cup of melted butter which is handed over by his grandma. The he poured 1/2 cup of milk, 1 egg, then some vanilla.
Now, we should beat this for 2 minutes. Sunny started beating. But after a minute he is tiered and his soft palms became red. Seeing this his sister took forcibly from him and completed the beating. Then grandma poured the mix into a cake pan of and placed it in the oven which is already preheated and set the required temperatures. After sometime, she checked the cake with a tooth pick and finally she told to Sunny, "Dear your cake is ready". Sunny and his sister came running very great enthusiasm and saw the cake. Then after it is cooled, grandma placed it on the table. Sunny, took vanilla cream and placed a thick layer on the cake with a knife and spread evenly. Then his sister has given him chocolate flakes which she has prepared out of dairy milk bars. Sunny sprinkled them on the border of the white vanilla cream. Then he took a strawberry jelly cream and wrote in his childish hand writing as "Happy Marriage Anniversary - Sunny & Sweety with Love".
Sweety is his sister's nick name.Then Sweety kept the cake in the freezer.

By the time they finished this, it is almost party time. Sunny's mom called downstairs for her both children. Both of them ran upstairs. She told softly "Children you need to get ready, its going to be party time". Sunny and Sweety got ready and their mom dressed them well and she too got ready. The open space downstairs in front of the apartment is beautifully decorated. The dinner tables set by the attenders of the company for which the contract is given. Already the guests started coming. And Sunny's father who is in white suit and a red rose in the pocket is receiving them. After almost all expected people came, Sunny went inside. After few minutes, he came out hold his wife's hand in his followed by two kids. She is gorgeously dressed and so are her kids. Every one applauded and clapped their hands as both of them entered the gathering. Once they reached the center of the gathering, Sunny's father gifted a ring to his wife. He also father also arranged a big cake at the center. And now it is time for cake cutting. At that moment Sunny's grandma whispered some words in Sunny's father's ear. Everyone can see a surprised expression on his face. Then he neared his son and hugged him and took him into his arms and said aloud "Dear friends, my son has planned a surprise for us on this occasion and here it is, a cake made by his own hands". Sunny's sister brought the cake and their mother is very much surprised to see that. She took Sunny from his father and hugged him and kissed him. Her eyes are filled with  tears of happiness and was ever smiling. She then hugged Sweety too. Both the parents are prod to have such kids. The whole gathering applauded both the children. Sunny's parents first cut his cake only and celebrated. Then only they cut the other cake just for formality. Both of them showered there kisses to their children. Sunny reminded his teacher's words.... and kept smiling and felt that he has made his plan a grand success.

So, a kids character builds up depending on the environment he is bought up, the schools he study, the friends he moves with, etc. everything play an important role.

Dried Roses

I just finished my breakfast with my husband. Since I preferred to eat by his hand today, we ate in the same plate and he feed me with his hands only. I set the table and I just enjoyed his hand feeding. Then he started to office and I waved my hand to him from the lobby as his car passed slowly. Immediately I cleaned the table and utensils and walked out of our apartment and locked the main door. As I am proceeding forward in the corridor, I can hear the laughs of the english people from other apartments beside ours. After I passed two appartments, I stopped and knocked at the door. I heard no response. So again I knocked and waited. Sanjana seems to be busy today. When I knock at her apartment door every morning at 9.00 AM, she responds very quickly since she will be waiting for my company at that time. But today it is peculiar for me that she took time to open the door. Sanjana and Ajay are newly married couples and came to US for Ajay's onsite work and are staying just after 2 apartments beside ours.

When Sanjana opened the door, I found that she is very tiered and is busy with something in kitchen. She wore an apron over her and greeted me with smiling face, but not as cool as everyday. She just invited me directly into kitchen and directed me to help myself to find a chair unlike everyday. When I asked her if she require any help, she told no in a cool manner and opened the oven door. There is a cake inside the oven and she tested whether it is baked or not with a knife and closed the oven door and switched it off. I asked her whether anything special today. She told that it is Ajay's birthday. Then only I remembered that she told me about this two days back. I blamed myself for forgetting and apologized her and asked her why didn't she wait and start after I came so that I can be helpful by sharing some work. For that she gave me a very heart touching reply. She said, "Dear Friend, I don't want to make you work and just want to spend time leisurely with you sharing my thoughts and play and have fun. That is why I want to complete it before you come. Also I want to prepare the birthday cake and all dishes with my own hands." When I heard the reply, I thought I am lucky to have such a friend and Ajay is lucky to have such a wife. But, then I felt Sanjana is not lucky. Though she is not enjoying the company of Ajay as partner mentally, still she does such wonderful things to him. Also, I realized that I never gave such a surprise to my husband even though he is so loving and caring with me. Additionally he will be surprising me on my birthday, our marriage day, etc. So. this time I thought I too should do something surprising on upcoming birthday of my husband. As such thoughts passed my mind, I suddenly heard that Sanjana is calling from the living room.
I realized that I am lost in my thoughts and recovered myself and went to the living room. Sanjana is waiting for me with a plate full of snacks and two glasses of apple juice. She also has a pack of cards in her left hand which we daily play and the DVD player remote in other hand. When I am nearing her, she excitingly called me "Come On friend, lets start". I am very surprised seeing her enthusiasm and energy levels even on that busy scheduled day. I know she gives importance to friends very much. But today I am experiencing it. She is very eager not to miss the time with me even on this day. At the same time she hasn't failed to do all the arrangements to surprise Ajay. I am surprised to see the balancing and planned nature of hers. We played cards for 3 hours and had lunch. Then she took the cake from the oven and covered it with cream and chocolate flakes. Then she wrote the wishes on the cake and then placed it in a big box and covered loosely.
In the evening by the time Ajay came home, she has hidden the cake and all the dishes. After some time, slowly people started coming casually. They just came as if visiting to play cards as they do on all weekends. Even my husband came. After some time, Sanjana's cousin and her family came. She quickly passed the living room and entered the bedroom and hidden something in the cupboard. It is a bouquet of red roses which Sanjana told her cousin to bring. I am very much surprised again for her planning. Then after dinner, all started playing cards. The time ran so fast. When the clock stroked 11.45 PM, Sanjana slowly slipped from the group and went to the bed room and changed the dress and waited for the clock. When the clock stroked 12.00, she entered the living room with the red roses and handed over to Ajay conveying the birthday wishes. It seems he did not expect this sort of surprise from Sanjana. But still he has a vague expression on his face. Sanjana wished and gently patted on his head and started to set the table with cake and candles. A quick cake cutting followed by a long photo section happened. As my husband and me, both are interested in such surprising parties and has good hands on in photography, we involved well in taking photos and making fun. On the whole the party is a grand success. All efforts are of Sanjana. We people just enjoyed. Hope that her efforts touched Ajay's heart. Ajay is not that enjoying company. He doesn't share much with Sanjana, doesn't cooperate her in household activities, doesn't take care of her, he knew very less about Sanjan, etc. If I were Sanjana, I would die. She has great patience.
Again I would mention, If men understands how to behave with wife and care her, she is really lucky. To be frank, I am one such lucky person. But now a days, most men are behaving so and hence the percentage of suffering women reduced a lot, except for the few cases like Sanjana. Hope Ajay realized and Sanjana enters a colorful married life soon. This is a real time happening in my friend's life and I am posting it in the form of an article with her full permissions.

Life Cycle of a Woman

I would like to share the various phases of life a woman passes.
Starting with a very sweet phase when she enjoys the Love, Care, Affection from the world around her i.e. the Childhood. That is the only phase when a woman is protected and guided by her loving parents or well wishers with immediate attention to her requirements even without asking for the same.

The next phase is the starting phase of problems in her i.e. maturation. the first time a woman knows the feel of the physical pain and gradually shows maturity in her thinking too. This affects her way of approach to people. Some limitations and restrictions in her talk and social living will start depending on the nature of her parents and well wishers. But still she is under cover of caring hands of them. Some Parents treat their daughter just like a very close friend. There may be some restrictions and limitations arising out of her general feminine nature. But she will be enjoying the Freedom of Life with a confidence that someone is there to share her thoughts, take care of her and attend her needs, atleast when she open her mouth and asked. In some cases, parents are very strict and concerned and she starts experiencing the worst part of life from this phase itself.

Then comes the very important phase of life which is the major turning point in Woman's Life i.e. none other than Marriage. This phase can be the most colorful, or most disastrous or a mixture of both. Once it is set colorful with a partner who takes care just like her parents in previous phases, nothing more happiest thing happens for any woman on this earth. I appreciate the fact that most of the men now a days trying to be like that. But...if unfortunately she fells in the hands of a man who marries thinking that marriage will reduce his bachelor expenses or who doesn't share his thoughts or plans to her, or who is an expression less gloomy person, or who doesn't follow her advices though he is so unplanned, etc. then starts the real torture. For torturing a woman, a man need not directly scold her, or beat her. Just the above qualities in him are enough to make her life gloomy. Still, I do not know in present day matured generation, how there are still some men existing with such undesirable qualities. OK, I do not want to deviate the topic, just expressed out of the emotional reminding of my friend, one such sufferer. I would like to discuss what a woman expects and what does she dream of her married life in my next article. So keeping this topic aside for now, we shall switch to next phase of life.

The next phase, Motherhood is a wonderful phase the woman is gifted by God. Even this is also the phase when woman face the most critical physical and mental pains. But all those soothed by her child. All her stress involved in 9 months carrying, and labor for delivery are forgotten with just her child's senses. No other problems come to her brain after delivery. Woman just enjoys the motherhood with her child. She and her child will be her world. But, this is in case she has a partner with undesirable qualities mentioned in above para. If she got the right partner, she gives first priority to her partner only. In such cases, it will be her partner, child and herself/any other close ones in the order of her priority. Why this happens so is, the love, care and affection shown by a loving partner will provide energy and mental strength for her to bear all the stress of carrying and delivering the baby successfully and safely. If the partner is with undesirable characters, even in that situation, she herself builds up mental strength keeping all hopes on her child. So, due to this, the concern she show to her life partner lightens, in some cases almost nullified. Believe me, I have seen such cases. I think most of the woman decided that the olden methodologies of great Pathivrathas like Sathi Savithri won't work out in this generation in case they get partners with such undesirable characters.

Switching to the next phase, i.e. Old age, some woman just spend there time with their loving life partners with occasional short visits to their child's places. Now a days, even old women are so broadminded that they stopped complaining about their daughter in laws or son in laws. They just visit and return calmly without any disturbance. But this is done by woman whose life partners are with desirable characters and they enjoy their company. In case of undesirable life partner, woman in old age either join in some ashramams or else she converts to be a fussy disturbance to her child's life without her knowledge with regular visits or completely staying with them and always passing complaints either directly or indirectly. This is the bad side of a narrow minded woman in her old age. Even some woman are also very cooperative and helpful to their children irrespective of whether it is a daughter or daughter in law.

So, thus the woman passes different phases of her life with different ways of thinking and approach with different people in Life.

Finally I would like to mention that there are woman who are fussy to their parents, henpecking their husbands even though he is loving and caring to her, fussy to her child in her old age. But it is another topic which i will discuss in my later posts.
