MAHENDRA TAMBE - ABSOLUTELY DOWN TO EARTH

A GREAT SOUL - MAHENDRA TAMBE

Hi, I had this wonderfull opportunity to meet this great Soul. Mahendra Tambe is former National Champion in the Game of Carrom- Board. Last 3 days back I was in SPG ( Shivaji Park Gymkhana ) on a business meet. After the meeting I was introduced to Mahendra Tambe who was playing Carrom with his Colleagues. They had finished playing and were on the verge of packing off. I was just watching the Games Manship and was enjoying watching him play. As they have packed off, my friend requested him to play with us One Board. ( People who play Carrom know that the Game is played on 29 Points format and several boards are played to reach that final point. ) Mahendra immediately agreed to comply our wish and this gentleman played with us 3 Boards and I was amazed to see his skills. But the better part of this man to be mentioned is his HUMBLENESS. Absolutely Down to EARTH. God gives the BEST the best! Who shall believe that I played with National Champion Mahendra Tambe 3 Boards of CARROM. This shall go in my Memories forever.
Pls. Note : IMP : Later on I got to know he has fought life threatening physical problems. I was amazed to hear that.. TRULY A CHAMPION

" Dogs "

We all know the Sub Continent is witnessing perhaps one of the best rainfall this Season. One of days, When it was raining mildly in Drizzle's. It was 5.30 PM and I was with my friend on 7 bungalows Sea Shore, just enjoying this lovely moments of Nature. The Tide was on Low hence a long stretch of sand bank was there to just walk on. I could see a very sparse crowd most of them young couples out to enjoy this lovely weather. A distance away there were some horse peddlers who were standing with thier horses , waiting for prospective customers for the ride. One of the horse was tall and looking very elegant with shades of white and brown. My friend was busy talking to someone on the mobile wrt business and I was left all alone to watch this beautiful world ! This blog carries this special moment which caught my attention.. Some few stray Dogs, I think they were 4 in Numbers. This Dogs were playing among themselves totally oblivious to the World Around. Jumping, Barking, Running around .. WOW, this was making this part of land look so beautiful. The Sun was close to the Horizon and I could see all were involved in thier Gossips!!! But the Dogs were enjoying " the Rain " and this Open and free Land which was in grips of the lovely breeze. hahahah ... One can see and get happiness.. just by being observant of the happy world around. Thanks

Life's Beautiful Moment

Hi,
Sharing with you those moments which captured my heart. Its been a week or 10 days away and its still there as fresh in my mind as it was. I was on a onbound local train to Virar from Andheri. Morning 9.56 , being Peak Hours, the Train was heavily loaded with passengers. Like me I could see all were struggling to stand in the crowd. In midst of this, I saw a poor old female of perhaps more than 70 age standing next to me and she was just shouting "Dhaka Nahi Mara" ( Don't Push ) in typical local marathi Language. I guess she was pretty thin hence she was more in the uncomfort zone than perhaps others. Suddenly one of the Guys laughed and said from behind " hey,Phude dhaka nahi mara" ( Meaning Don't push ahead ) and this old lady caught some meaning of that and started laughing madly , shouting phude dhaka nahi mara and I could see as much as most of the passengers laughing and some few more shouting " phude dhaka nahi mara" , amazing hilarious moments. The best part was that this continued her laughing and laughing and laughing for more than 20 /25 minutes till her stop came. She was all Joy forgetting the Discomfort , and believe me, Everyone was laughing with her just seeing her laugh. It was so cute . All have forgotten their worries, the discomfort of the Crowd bu this little moment of happiness. And the Lady was so radiant and cute when she was laughing.. I thoughts God's World is so beautiful when People Laugh and are happy !

" HE IS NOT ANSWERABLE "

TOUCHING EXPERIENCE

I was in Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital. Watching our Software in Display in GI OPD. A Young lady , very sweet and beautiful , perhaps of 19 or 21 years with a kid in Hand comes to me for querying a Train going to Punjab. I tell her she can enquire that from the railway concession counter in TMH. She tells me She doesn't want to know the name of the Train, but she wants to know the Temple / Gurudwara in Punjab that Cures Cancer. I was shocked by her innocence and her question. I tell her God is Within and when one prays to God , God comes to them where ever they are. Bit inquisitive about her, I asked her for whom she wants to go to Punjab. She tells me for her HUSBAND. Doctors in TMH has told her that her husband is in beyond curable stage. I was shocked. I ask her from where she is , she tells me she is from Jharkhand. Then she ask me about the Train fare to which I tell her , the Fare could be around 400 - 500 Rupees. She turns her back counting something and within some few yards away I could see her Wiping her Tears. I was shocked , touched. Wondering Why God ??? I know there is no Answer , as its called " HE IS NOT ANSWERABLE"

Air India Crash

My Feeling goes to the Families of those Victims. Its a National Shame, because We are least bothered about what has happened. Who is to be Blamed? Airindia ? The Airports Authorities ? The Seasoned Pilots ? Who ? Praful Patel ? WHO ? Its very simple, One needs to just go and understand how Airindia functions and one shall get the answer. One needs to go and see how the Government Organisation functions and one shall get the answer!! But who wants that?? No one I guess !

Hi Friends,
Let me share with you last 2 days. Its been phenomenal to enjoy this weekend holidays extended to Monday - Thanks to " Festival Holi ". Its been world of freedom for last 2 days and who would enjoy more than me ? A Single ! hahahaha... Well Wok Friends, nothing to think beyond, its been like those childhood days again, Playing Cricket in the Street with friends. Oops I realised when my body creaked that Age has caught up but perhaps not the Spirit! The spirit I found was as young as a Kid wanting to just enjoy those moments without interference of thoughts. Well That was Sunday - Day 1. Come Monday - Day of Holi. Its been after a long time I enjoyed Holi. Same Usual like Friends coming in and applying Colors, but this year swimming in the 7 Bungalow Beach has been terrific Experience. The Ocean was so Soft and perhaps caressing like a mother giving her love to her Childrens. The Weather was amazing with Temperature not more than 32 Degree and Cool Breeze blowing Occasionally. My Brother , My friends and Little Kids HariCharan, Har Pritam, Soham, Rahul , Simran, All Freaked out in the Arabian Sea for nearly 3 hours. Later we had a great Lunch at Eveing 5 followed by a small Nap of 20 minutes, then Dinner Again outside on Junky Foods!!!! Thats Great a Day to Remember!!!!
Well WOK friends Now you can understand Why I could'nt Wish You all Happy Holi,, but here in wok who cares WE ARE WILD and we dont need Formal statements.. We just Enjoy!
