Some random things (from me too :D)

Expectations lead to disappointments. So true!

Does expecting anything from your loved ones is wrong? Not even for any basic things? And then what if everytime you get the disappointment only? Should we ignore it everytime?

What exactly should we do with any kind of our ‘expectations’? I am confused with this thing!

I have started getting infected by the ‘mood swing’ factor. Really... Sometimes I am so happy sometimes I am sad. Sometimes I am so patient sometimes so irritable. Don’t know what is to be called for this stage of the life *sigh*. I don’t want to change myself. I want to be the old Prachi which I was earlier! Always happy always patient about whatever the things were going on in my life. May be my expectations form my life were very less at that time. Now may be I expect something too much form everyone. And then can’t take the disappointments. Or may be I can not handle the things in life as I am growing up!

Just now when I was writing this no-sense (and not nonsense :D) material written above, I got the news that my PM’s mother passed away! She had cancer. I did not know much about how saviour the decease was. But my manager always used to be in a nice mood. He always used to talk to us about his family including his mother. He used to tell us about his experience in the hospital when he took his mother for chemotherapy. I never saw him in a sad or tensed mood. But yes.. inside he must be so worried.. so tensed.. so unhappy...

I am just feeling ashamed about myself. People have so many problems in their life but still they are happy. And I don’t have any problem in my life (atleast now), still I took up to write this crib post!!!

Women’s day

Today it’s my would-be grand-mother-in-law’s birthday. She turned 85. This was the first year I called her up to wish her. She can not hear properly. So after some struggle she recognised me and was so happy that I called her up to wish her.

I and my fiancé speak different languages at our home. (I – Marathi, Him – Konkani with grandmom and English with others). I can not speak in Konkani, ganmom-in-law can speak in Marathi. So as soon as on the phone she came to know that it’s me, she switched on her conversation to Marathi. I felt so happy, so close.

The first thing she asked me in a complaining tone “Tu yet ka ni go aamchyakade mala bhetayla?”. Translation: “Why don’t you come to meet me at our place?” We talked for 15 mins. She was telling about her legs do pain... She doesn’t like the food... Her neighbour’s daughter helps her so much... The way she was talking.. it was like a kid. As well as like a warm caring person. I don’t know why but I just burst in the tears after that conversation. I really don’t know why! She made me feel important. That little conversation brought me so close to her.

Now you must be wondering why I gave the title for the post as ‘Woman’s day’! Even I don’t know why. May be just because it is woman’s day today... Or may be because ‘the lady’ made me feel very special today.
