i think my immune system is not working properly. i used to be very strong n always used to feel proud of myself...my health especially. it's not the same. these days am easily getting prone to highly infectious stuff like various habits, musings etc.
the hit list is as follows.
My sis swats always hated cooking and now that she's married she's into a lot of 'cooking with love' (previously cooking with stove :P) for her lovely husband. she's even started a blog on her kitchen experiments. i started admiring how she has changed and out of it came inspiration n even i've started cooking n slowly experimenting. luckily my clinic starts afternoon n hence, i get time to cook leisurely in the mornings, n in the evenings i cook leisurely yet again coz i dont have a television n hence, i have a lot of time. in addition, ive learnt to cook quickly, say in about 40 mins i cook 4 dishes (just for me :P), earlier i used to take solid 2hrs. hehehe...
so this enjoyment while cooking came as an infection to me from my sis.
another strange infection i got is KIRKET...yeah u read it right, it's CRICKET only. this has come to me from my student. to make him study, i tempted him that i'll update him with the score by checking it on the internet, i developed this curiosity to know the score n slowly the intrest. cricket is slowly infecting me as well.
a cousin of my is very good in planning strategically, implementation/ execution, improving the plans/ schemes, business etc. he's steadfast. my friends used to always tell me (few of them have mentioned in slam books as well) that am steadfast and my planning is sooooper. but wen i see my cousin i feel that am nothing infront of him, and i learn a lot. his speed, planning, dealing, business tactics, etc are infecting me.
there are few other bad habits that have lately started infecting me. shame on me, i knew that they are infecting me yet i kept quiet and enjoyed n then i realized that i did all that just to fool myself. dumb me.
yet another very significant part of this infectious story is that i've started drinking water.....................
(ending this post abruptly for i gottu drink some water... c u in the next post)
clolurs of life
what's your fav colour? do you hate any color? what are positive colors and what are negative colors? what are positive? can we discriminate colors as good and bad as well? if yes then how and why?
these were few questions that went around in my mind on the very day of holi and before and after that. i never shared it with any1, yet i've been observing ppls likings and dislikings towards various colors.i always wonder y black is treated as a negative color by many elders? what mistake/wrong has it done? how can wearing/ carrying a black color to a sacred function/ritual/gathering would effect the happenings? why Hindus prefer Red and Yellow (and some saffron), why Muslims prefer Green and why Christians prefer Whites? How are the influencing ppls minds? Why doctors say green color (earlier) and blue color (now) have curative effects? How are the differences formed?
Once I was observing a child's behaviour and reaction to a particular stimulus, for the same stimulus yet another child responded differently (both have same condition with little variations). Later in the Pychology class I learnt that perceptions vary greatly. and in child psychiatry class I learnt about beliefs.
and now when I recollect above mentioned three instances...what I understand (or rather perceive) is that we believe that colors are different. I think what i perceive a color may be different for others. For example I like pink color and do not like blue color. may be the same color (pink) you see it as blue and think that u like blue and see the other color (blue for me) and think that it's is pink. we both actually like and dislike same colors, name them differently. to simplify it, if we both see a same color and call it commonly as orange (for example) but what we see is different actually..that differences in actual perception causes likings and dislikings. (still sounds complicated, eh??)ok leave it!!
well woteva color be it, i like almost all the colors, and for me i treat all the colors equally, that is no single color can be called as a good/bad. only thing is not all colours suit to all contexts. for me colors are equal to children.some are dark colors and some others are light colors yet all are colors, similarly some children are easy and some are difficult yet all are children. like how few colors look grt in few contexts and some others look horrible but for that we can not cal it as a wrong color. children exel in few ares and find difficult in some other areas and hence for that we can not call them as failures.
when i see ppl discriminating colors which are abstract, i'm afraid, how much discrimination they must be showing towards ppl n children.
there is a close relationship between colors, children and me.......
definitely all are different but treat them equally for what they are n have. accepting is what all that matters.
for me everyday is a holi-day, i play a lot with colors n children. yeah, it's fun.
Hope you had a grt holi on holi day.
c u in the next post! tc!
