Beaten!

Ye...Im jobless ...not that Im complaining too much...its officially been 2 weeks...n Im glad I dont have to bear the backaches ...I do miss people though....n they better miss me too :P

The last break I had like this was when I took 2 weeks off from work to visit my sister with my family in Singapore. But then my father was there .....

Now...I kinda miss him a lot more than I have in all the years he was alive.......

I get to watch a lotta television...hope my child doesnt end up in front of it all its life :P...n today happened to watch a programme on Amma's mallu channel abt a daughter beating up her old mother in extremely poverty stricken conditons...

The victim here, the mother used to manage a meagre income until abt 6 years ago...after that she fell ill....n tats when her daughter started beating her up to vent out her frustration given the fact that she can neither take care of herself or her family....

The programme interviewed the mother-daughter duo...the neighbours....on the callousness of the "beating up act"...on what can be done......n all of that....but there was just one thought which came into my head...


Forget the delivery pangs or the pains that parents take to bring up their kids...Im not gonna get into all tat senti stuff....But one thing I can talk abt now is abt all the senti stuff I feel abt the pangs of pregnancy!!!

I dunno if some women have it easy...but for the entire duration of my pregnancy...whenever I have had to endure a pain thr or one here....or when the baby inside moves...or when I have to drag myself out of bed ...or when I cant sleep coz of breathlessness or coz I can literally feel the baby move to the sides I sleep on n hear the sounds of fluids inside....I appreciate my mother a lot ...a lot lot more!!!

I know its not easy raising a child..after all ...it will have its own personality once its out...but no matter what...to me...its unforgiveable...... biting the hand that fed u!!

A decade without Acha

 Acha is my father. I lost him 10 years ago, Feb 19th'2012. I dont like using him in "past tense". I still believe that no one...
