Merry Christmas 2019

During the last month, the onion prices skyrocketed, there was the very

un fortunate  affair of rape and encounter killing at Hyderabad and

following that was the nationwide disturbance because of CAA, which

is still raging. 

All troubles and disturbances born out of human greed, ill will, wickedness

and in general, human nature.  

One has to think a hundred times before accepting any other human being

wholeheartedly, unquestioningly, completely. And we are still not sure !

I think that’s why we have our gods and our beliefs. To provide us with

an entity which we can wholeheartedly accept, without any hesitation and

a mental frame to  do so. 

And our festivals are there, to probably reaffirm and remind us about it. 

Also, to provide us with a time space during which we can put aside the

irritations created by us, temporarily. 

Christmas, is a festival with a very nice feeling. Rejoicing the arrival of a

divine power  amidst us. Believers revel in the festival spirit. Others may

enjoy the festive atmosphere ! Sri D V G, a philosopher/poet says,

“to be able to enjoy other’s happiness is the greatest of virtues”!

My neighbours have prepared for Christmas with lot of enthusiasm.

My daughter in law has added to the spirit with a  Christmas decoration

in our waiting room ! And the Christmas cake gifted by a kind patient is not

 a cake but the proverbial icing !!

Merry Christmas to everyone !
