POOREST OF RICH !

I was intimidated to write on this when I yesterday read this 'news' in leading newspaper with the heading "Man takes wife to final abode on a push cart". This gives me goosebumps when I visualize the site Ramulu pushing dead body of Kavita on a push cart. My first emotion was sympathy towards him and his dead wife. But after reading, it raised many questions in my heart.  1. Ramulu had leprosy and was a street beggar. His wife died of acute illness. He wanted to bury his wife at his native village which was 80kms away from his present location. 2. Ambulance wanted Rs. 5000 to carry her body from "A street beggar" with leprosy. 3. 50kms he walked with push cart with a dead body and none of lacks of 'Live" people could even see that.  4. When body started smelling and he started crying inconsolably, people gathered collected money for her transportation and burial. Now lets evaluate ourselves, let us all feel in what kind of...

First step !

I write what I feel. I write what I dream. My thoughts can't make you happy, but can tell you who am I ! Life will be an alien if it is a thoughtless, wordless process.

Education, for me had always been a legacy to carry forward or you can say, it’s been a part of daily existence like breathing, eating, playing, or loving.   As my parents were from academic background, both my brother and me had lots of pressure for studying hard and getting best grades. We never had a thought or say what should we study or what should be the next course we opt. So when this question was thrown to me I was very happy to catch it. If you could study/specialise in any subject of your choice in the UK, what would it be, where and why? Being from a small town of Uttar Pradesh, India, I always had a dearth of career opportunities to go for. Though there were universities, colleges having known and famous scholars as professors, but somehow that was ‘Run of the mill’ kind of thing. And being one of the sheep was highly unacceptable for me.   I did my post graduation in Botany and shifted my base to capital of the country. I always thought that De...
