Which animal are you?

Last year during one of the behavioral trainings at office, we were asked to relate ourselves to any animal and draw a picture of the animal and justify the training team as to why we chose the animal?

Many people came up with animals such as turtle, duck, elephant, cow, fish, horse etc..

I chose to be an ant because of its hardworking nature, its concern for its present and future, its social nature: it prefers to be in a team and believes in teamwork. More importantly it prefers to mind its own until disturbed. Once disturbed it surely does teach a lesson. Also it has a never give up attitude which is very essential for one's survival in today's world.

Which animal are you? Ponder over and do leave a comment in the comment box :)

Miss you thatha

Its been 9 years since you left us yet the memories are afresh. It seems as though it was just yesterday that we bid our final adieu to you.

I remember my childhood where i would stand near the gate in the pretext of waiting for you while in reality i was looking forward for my dad's jeep. I remember how much you cared for me just because i stayed away from my parents. I remember those evenings as it were yesterday when you would first wipe the dirt off your TVS and then freshen up for the hot supper that was prepared specially for you. I remember the strain that you would undergo when you carried the heavy jackfruit or the watermelon which would be heavy for you to carry considering your ill health yet you wanted to make your grand children happy. I loved your never-say-die attitude.. You never gave up though it was impossible to do..

I loved you a lot in many ways yet i may not have told you..

I remember the tehkikaat, chitrahaar and other serials you watched on DD1 . Your interest and knowledge on all general things was commendable and also the unfailing memory of yours. You have had your shares of ups and downs in life yet you were strong

I do remember the day you came by walk to basaveshwarnagar where we stayed during your last days just to say that there was a new college that had been started at rajajinagar by one of the prestigious group of colleges. You believed in me when everyone were skeptical about my tenth results. 

Yet am sorry for being a scaredy cat. I wouldn't come near you when you were bed ridden.. Please forgive me.. I miss you thatha.. Please come back. I need you now more than at any other time..

I am sure you would be proud of both your grand children and also Sharath for we have made our little if not great accomplishments in life..

Yours
Ammani :(
