Very True Sri.. after reading Mithila's posts even I feel the same way. We don't know the imp of ppl when they are alive.. but only after they are gone we feel the imp. I should stop fighting with my parents and husband for small reasons. I should change myself. Life is so short.. every day is a boon for us. Lets start doing good things to add all the good deeds to yr good deeds account. So that when old age comes in and I look back I should feel happy about all the things I have done. And thats the biggest achievement in life when u feel content and happy when u look back. Even we youngters will be old at certain point in life.

Just close yr eyes everyone and think of it. How we will be 30 yrs later ? We yougsters whould mellowdown.

My dear v v 123,
Why youngesters even oldies like me also have to change a lot.With age I am also becoming irritable fast.Physical tiredness leads to mental tiredness also.But I think I have to also get rid of my impatience and there is so much to learn from youngsters for example to not take things seriously and allow oneself to be come emotional.
Life has million colours,let us enjoy all the colours.
love
mithila kannan

Hi Mithila Kannan Ma`m,

I really feel that ur blessed to write such a beautiful and heart touching stories.I really enjoyed and u made me to think that amma is alive and making the guests to feel tired of her praisings of her dh,dil till the half way through but when I read the word shardham,I really felt very sad. we should love and respect our elders and dear ones because if u loose them we are not going to get them back and they are precious than anything in the world.

Thanq for sharing such a nice post..
waiting for some more!!

hi mithila,
one extraordinary post!!!
you really bought the mother's characteristics into that character selfless and hurt by her children and still loves them unconditionally and always wants the best for them.

regards
pavi

My dear pavithra,
Iam happy that you liked the post.Mothers are the same have remained the same for ages and ages.They dont mind getting hurt but they want their children to be unscathed.They will do anything for that,no sacrifice is too big when it is done or the sake of their kids.
Great is motherhood.
God bless you
love

Dear MK,
this is the real scene in most of the households these days. I cannot understand why people are so cruel that they could take good care of their pets but feel that their parents are a burden. Why?
They do the shrardham for fear that their children and they should live happily, they do not understand that just by spending money one is not going to be free of the bad one had done knowingly.
Even my husband's cousin is like the son in your story. He used to give Rs.100 for his mother monthly for her expenses- medicines, dress, transportation all included. And would expect that she gifts her daughters and grand children when they come to visit her in that money itself. His father had given all the money after selling his ancestoral property. Th worst part is that the dil is her own niece (brother's daghter).
There are some cases where the son is helpless before the domination of the wife.Is there any salvation for these type of people?

very touching.. i could feel her emotions..

there are times where i scream at my mom (she's my best friend) and she screams back at me.. times where i wish i was still a little child so i never have to leave my mom's side.. regardless of your relationship with your mom and dad.. treat them well.. now that i live away from them, i enjoy every second i get to spend with them..
