ஏன்

இந்த மாதிரி மும்பயில் ஏன் நடக்க வேண்டும். நமது படுகப்பு அமைப்புகளில் பனி செய்து கொண்டிருக்கும் மனுஷர்களால் இதை தடுத்திருக்க முடியாதா.

அப்பாவி மனிதர்கள் ஏன் உயிரை பலி கொடுக்க வேண்டும் அவர்கள் செய்த பிழைதான் என்ன?

மக்கள் தங்களது அன்றாட வாழ்கையை சாதரணமாக நடத்தி செல்ல முடியாதா?

உலகில் உள்ள நாடுகளும் அதில் உள்ள மக்களும், வழக்கில் முன்னேறுவதில் சிலருக்கு அப்படி என்ன வெறுப்பு கோவம் ஆவேசம்.

உலகில் உள்ள மக்கள் அனைவரும் முன்னேறி ஒரு நல்ல வாழ்கையை அமைத்து கொள்ளுதல் தப்பா?

இக்கேள்விகளுக்கு பதில் உள்ளனவா?

You know what my little girl did a couple of days ago

My little one is called Vedika. She just turned 2 years about a month ago.

She normally has her lunch around noon and gets into the siesta mode after running around the house and becoming cranky forcing Mommy dear to cuddle and put her to sleep.

The smart girl she is had somehow figured out on her own I presume by sheer observation how to operate the door knobs and lock it which we obviously had not realized fully.

A couple of days ago when Mommy had just stepped out of the house to throw the garbage into the garbage bin located outside the house the little one being a little sleepy playfully locked the house and despite repeated attempts by the mother from outside the house to try and get her to open it she did not and promptly walked away and slept in the couch.

Mom managed to finally get into the house later and came around to see the little angel deep in slumber peacefully unaware of what had happened and her role in it.

They say kids say and do the darnest things and I would rate this one on top.

 

More to come.... Make it a Good Day.

Gas Prices

At the rate gas prices have been sky rocketing it gives a scary feeling. This has probably resulted in the biggest hole in the pocket which is ever increasing as days progress with record shattering prices of the crude oil per barrel.

The pain is felt harder nowadays more so because of the subsidized prices here in USA which has always been much lower than the prices that were prevailing across the world.

With the reckless outsourcing attitude taken by the various company honchos here in USA with the support of appropriate powers has resulted in average american losing their jobs due the cheap labor and so called savings portrayed. This has resulted in slow erosion of the nice life the used to be the norm here in USA.

The powers that be conveniently now blame growing purchasing power of developing nations like India, China, Vietnam which in my personal opinion smacks of stupidity. I do not accept this argument how much ever people yell from roof tops about the affluency of other countries being the reason for the current situation.

In my humble opinion it is a reckless attitude and total lack of foresighted management is the very reason for the current state of affairs across the world with rising gas prices causing spiralling food prices and other increases in other sectors.

Will continue the chat tomorrow with my thoughts, Make it a Good Day.
