Dream of a Digital India??Empower rural India with Technology!!!

To ensure a #DigitalIndia, E-governance has a key role to play.
E-governance or electronic governance is one of the very important application of Information and communication technology. It is a single point of source which provides the citizens the access to the various government services and information electronically.
The main objective of it being simplifying and supporting the transactions and activities of the government, citizens and businesses individually and also between them.

It not only makes the functioning of the system more transparent and approachable to the layman, but also saves on the resources providing a paper-free environment. The loads of paper work, records, files piled in the government offices are a sorry sight for the eyes, a huge burden to locate a specific data and a struggle to get the work completed as their is no ownership of the jobs. With e-governance, there will be simplification of the whole process leading to better record/files
management, ownership of the assigned job, effective completion of the work in the assigned time, saving time for both the involved parties and all this in turn making the lives of everyone smooth sailing.

The e-governance will give a dream platform for the citizens with accurate information providing necessary access to all important communication, updates from the government. It will provide an easy access to all the different services like paying bills online, taxes, khathas, Pension claim, passport, visa, banking, insurance, getting the credits online like EPF and others, knowing the status of applications and progress etc. All this and more without having to visit the respective government offices nor stand in long queues, sweating it out, arguing with the irresponsible officials at times.
Saying this ,a user can utilize the services 24/7 at his doorstep at the time convenient to him, saving his own time for other important things.

Apart from all the basic services mentioned, the main vision of the e-governance is to empower people to have a clean corruption free nation. For which I feel the very objective of the e-governance should be to see that the funds granted for specific parties be it a department, people, groups/villages for the specific purposes etc. should reach only those intended parties for those intended services, without any 3rd parties interference. With this there is no chance of the misuse of the funds by those sources by unauthorized means.

To put all these services, information and data together one of the means which e-governance uses is e-portal. e-portal is a website which forms the main user interface for all the users to access the different data related to different fields, and also utilize the different services provided as mentioned above. The various types of e-portals available on internet today are education portals, health portals, agriculture portals, national portals, business portals etc. which are entitled for providing
help/information and service in those specific fields. For example, a health portal will be one which gives information on different treatments available in different hospitals, option of taking and online appointment, chatting with a doctor for online information etc.; an education portal provides the various courses available in different educational institutions, courses offered online, exams etc.

Basically these portals are designed in a way that they are easily accessible, have a self-help guide, simple procedures to fill forms/apply claims. Provisions for the citizens to be able to put their views and also question the respective authorities on various national matters; review the government policies that are under planning; providing feedback on the quality of public sector service and many important topics which are debatable are all part of an effective e-governance platform.

But with all this and more, for the DREAM vision of a DIGITAL INDIA to be a reality it should be evenly planned ,the digitization should be everywhere.. especially the rural part of India.so it is very important to educate the poor, needy and illiterate, empower them with technology after educating them on it, through internet or direct class room method.
Because unless the rural India is armored with the required knowledge, information, technology via trustable local sources ,the dream of digital India will just be a mirage of water in a desert.
For that the very first step should be to educate the children in the rural areas with more and more knowledge of the technology, by using technology.
Install the schools/institutions a good number of computers with necessary software, employ knowledgeable and service oriented teachers to groom these children. Once they get their foothold in the domain and be equipped with the knowledge of using the technology in their lives, they can easily guide the others in their neighborhood, and also be the representatives for their future change as well as the future of the nation.
Only on achieving this, Our dream of a #DigitalIndia will be fulfilled completely, otherwise it would just be as good as offering a brightly glowing lamp to a blind person to lead his way.

As every new technological solution e-governance with its list of pros, it has its own challenges to face be it how reliable/consistent the data provided by the government officials, timely availability of the information, lack of accountability due to technical glitches, retaining the trust of the citizens etc..
but irrespective of all this, we can definitely look out for a digital future for our country, with the rapid technological development happening every moment everyday...!!!Very soon, everything will be in bits and bytes...making our lives more simpler and more effective...!!
Looking forward for our mother India to become a D-I-G-I-T-A-L I-N-D-I-A....!!!

Happiness....its right in front of you...!!!

Happiness is a lovely positive feeling, which makes a person to have a optimistic approach towards life no matter what.

For me, it is my everyday life, every instance, every moment of a day which gives me a reason to get that beautiful curve on the face. I try spreading it in ways possible with other beings who I feel are deprived of it either by just giving a smile to the most serious faces I see outside.. or helping out someone by sharing what I have, doing what I can.

In a phase of motherhood, where your little one wraps you around his/her little finger, the happiness doubles with every little gesture of the child. Right from the first smile my child gives me early in the morning when she wakes up, till she snuggles in my arms to sleep at night, all the moments spent with my little one bring only happiness and more happiness for me. She gives me that lovely delightful feeling by just being there as a part of me, a part of my life.

The only thing apart from my child which gives me happiness is listening to music. Music, takes one away to a completely new magical world, healing you internally by touching those unexplored,unreachable regions of heart.

Try listening to your favorite tune or music when you are feeling down, it takes care of your moods in no time and you feel more positive, your spirits lifted to a different level. Music for me is divine, the purest form the creator himself. It has helped me to overcome my negativity, frustrations at different phases of my life. It has helped me to be more positive, enthusiastic towards life.

Singing whether melodious or not for others ears helps me to relax, rejoice the happiness springing inside. The best and lethal combination of it comes when I sing and dance with my little one locked up in our little room with loud music on, with no restrictions, no inhibitions, no strings attached ..just free flowing music and we both floating with the music in a complete trance. Nothing comes close to the joy which we experience. I feel I have lived my life in that half an hour of isolation with music and only pure music.

On a much simpler note, for me, happiness was/is never at the destination but it is on the journey of life, the little moments/things we do/endure.., the lives we light up with our noble acts, the faces we light up with our positive vibes..

Be it cooking for my family, reading my favorite book, dressing up my little one, taking photographs of the sunset, having a hot cup of coffee over the window sill with a cool breeze blowing on my face, eating my mother's home made hot pakodas, hugging my husband when he is back tired from work, sleeping on my kid's lap at times.. everything...each of these non-significant acts and many more define happiness for me..
So people, if you want to experience Happiness, enjoy the road on the journey of life, the little things/moments whilst travelling...
As it is nothing else, nowhere else it lies..no need to run behind it, it is there in front of you, right now...so go on, embrace it..rejoice!!!!celebrate!!

Happiness always!!!

Spread love,make the world your family..

The best moments in life are the ones where in your acts make a difference to other's lives and you find yourself more happier looking at their happiness.

The third birthday of our little one was more than an event to remember as we shared our joy together with the kids of an orphanage. Going to an orphanage is a regular event in our family though, but this time it was extra special as it was in a complete female orphanage, of about 90 girls. Some having parents but left forsaken, some with no parents ages ranging from 3-12 years.

We thoroughly enjoyed the evening together with our family members and with those tiny tots who formed the other part of our family. Though themselves deprived of their rights, love and affection at such a tender age they never failed to shower their affection on us. We made my child cut the cake, while those little ones sang the most beautiful happy birthday melody I have ever heard. My little one rejoiced seeing her unknown friends wishing her with full heart. Though she may not understand the importance of sharing at her age, she had a satisfied look on her face as she had ultimately cut her
favorite pink strawberry cake.

We had arranged a meal for all the kids, and we served them ourselves with some other elder students and helpers there. And we also sat on the ground to have our food with them. They started their food only after said their prayers, all in sync before touching anything on their plates. They then enjoyed the food served, not wasting even a speck of food. We as educated people do have a lot to learn from them seeing their discipline in their way of life. After all how many of us thank the almighty for giving us the food and shelter and how many of us respect food??

These basic necessities are very basic for us and we don't give it a second thought to waste money nor the food. We don't mind spending 1000-2000Rs on a piece of pizza for a fun evening, but think 100 times before donating a piece of bread to the hungry stomachs. The fact remains the same, money spent on a pizza can fill many stomachs for a day.

Finally, I shared a carton of about 200 books I had bought for them with their orphanage head to initiate a small library and circulate the books among them for their reading. After all what can be a better gift for a growing child.

It was really a memorable and priceless evening for us together with those little wonderful creations of god.

The least I feel and advice everyone who are financially stable and those with a giving heart can do
is share their special occasions with the less privileged people, donate things used/never going to used lying in their attics..be it anything useful like clothes, books, toys, household items, just about anything.

Just share whenever, wherever possible. Give them a feeling of family, of togetherness, of happiness...as happiness given is always happiness multiplied..

Move on life,am too hard for you to break....

#StartANewLife
When I look back, its actually surprising to see that I have started my life many times afresh..be it as a responsible working daughter, as a non working homemaker, a caring mother...and maybe more roles to be donned in future as well as per the circumstances life throws in.

I know these phases are part of every woman's journey.. but for me start of a new life was when I had to juggle multiple roles at home, after my father had a stroke.
Unpredictable as it's very nature, life never fails to surprise you, positively or negatively. All was well and my family was rejoicing with my new born baby..
It was just 2 months since my delivery, that one day suddenly my father had a stroke and everything went haywire at home. He had to be admitted to the hospital, and soon he got multiple ailments accompanying his stroke like herpes, urinary bladder infection etc.Depression from all of these together pulling him down was obvious.

 I with my little baby in my frail health after C-section was unable to help much in running down to the hospital. I was shattered inside looking at my father's frail and no-life image. He developed several complications even after coming home and had to be again admitted to hospital. With these frequent hospital visits and unbearable sufferings his morale had died inside. I boosted his confidence as much as possible with my words even though I was broken inside. I had to hold my mother strong enough to go through this phase as she had also weakened from the circumstances and her age. With all this, I had to protect my child too from any infection that could spread from my father, as she was the most vulnerable.
 

For my mother's sons it was duty and headache to face the situation.but for us it was a responsibility to save and support the pillar of our family and lives.
With no one to support us morally in that vital hour, me and my mother struggled with our infants, me with my child and she with my father respectively. Every moment passed painfully and unpredictable.Within a few months, my father recovered though his speech drastically reduced from before. but slowly with time and seeing his grandchild's playful antics he became his normal self. It was a new life for me to see my father back as himself, with a unspoken sigh of relief within my mother's heart.
That critical period made me strong as a person. The situations thrown in by life may be monstrous at times, but I have made myself hard as a mountain. As I know that the pain or sorrow hitting a rock will only hurt itself..

Alas!!the changes life makes in you as a person....
Today, my soul remains unruffled...!!!Come on life throw more of your challenges..am ready...but be sure to prepare yourself with first aid.

Optimism is a child's play

If you ask me to define optimism, I cannot, instead I can ask you to have a feel of it after reading my take on it.

Optimism, the only one thing synonymous to it in my current phase of life..is my Child, and everything about my child.
Motherhood in general has a lots of ups and downs in one's life but the highs which it brings into a woman's life overpowers all other challenges. Optimism fills in your life just with a child's presence. Their smile, their actions, their every movement fills a mother's heart with nothing but happiness and content. My little one completes me as a person with a positive attitude, grooms me everyday to handle my life in a simpler and better way.

All I have done from day one of my child in my arms is LEARN and only LEARN. If you say "Learning from a child, how is it possible???" I say Yes, it is possible in
million ways, be it being patient, be it being able to multi-task, be it developing a forgive and forget attitude towards everyone, be it enjoying the small petty things of life, and more. You just have to have a open mind to welcome their thoughts and then you will realize that you actually learn more from them than what you teach them.

A child gives you that hope, a meaning for your life, and a new desire to live.
A child enjoys and rejoices at every small thing be it a new toy, a funny face you make, a cuddle from his/her favorite arms..just about anything.
A child never holds grudges, he/she just forgets and forgives. He/she comes and hugs its mother even though the same person is spanking or screaming on them.
A child sleeps within seconds since, his/her mind and heart are pure without any blemishes. No regret of yesterday, no burden of the present day and no aspirations of tomorrow, they sleep..they actually sail through it like a cool breeze.

On the other hand we as grown ups require certain things to happen, something to be achieved, to feel happy. We never enjoy the small things and never happy on the go.
Why not realize that Happiness is a journey and not the destination, and the fuel for covering that journey is Optimism.
We never forgive and forget easily, and always have an ill feeling for others because of our false ego.
As a result we can never rest peacefully, with overloaded baggage of pessimism, past regrets and future desires. Sleep becomes a luxury, a task with our ever running minds and heavy hearts.
Why not follow a simple approach to leading our lives putting ourselves in a child's shoes. Simplify every aspect of life,unwind your thoughts, slow down, lighten your heart, laugh heartily, love everyone. By this we can actually achieve more than we desire and also be in peace with our inner self.

I have experienced /experiencing optimism and living my life from my Child's perspective in every little thing she does. And being my only reason of happiness, the innumerable moments of joy she has been giving me everyday are immeasurable.
I just ooze optimism in everything I do or say...and you can feel that very thing while and after reading this.

If you still have not felt it, just go out and smell that fresh air, loosen yourself, play with a kid or be a kid yourself, you will realize life is not that bad at all.

A mother's baby steps of learning from her child...

Human behavior and emotions I tell you, it is so unpredictable not only of others but of ourselves sometimes. We wouldn't expect ourselves to behave that way but ultimately the hormones take over or whatever happens to the wiring inside, our output is completely chaotic and uncalled for most of the times, which we realize/regret later.

Everyone has weakness and I too am trying to overcome mine slowly, gradually.Anger is one sure shot toxin, which corrupts your entire brain wiring and ultimately burns your complete system down along with the relation with the one to whom it is targeted.
Me being very short tempered have tried/still trying to control my anger especially after being a mother.

A child definitely brings out so many unknown hidden facets in a mother like her humorous side - making funny faces, pranks, stories to amuse the child and keep it entertained;
her teaching ability - right from instilling good behavior to reading/writing;
her singing and dancing potential - lullaby for their sleep, rhymes and dancing with them like crazy when alone, for their favorite music;
her multi tasking ability - cook, clean, read, sing, feed ,get angry, love all emotions and tasks in 1 platter;
her wild and naughty/notorious side - fooling the child to do/not do certain things .....acting like a child herself sometimes.
The list is endless...,like this every other aspect concealed within her will be unveiled in no time.
At the same time a child can also test, play around and burst ones bubble of self control and repair it in no time.
For example, on a funnier note I never imagined a wild animal inside me until sometime, after shouting and screaming my lungs out and pouncing on her actually like one.
She wept, then suddenly came, embraced me tightly even though I was the one spanking her.
I realized my erratic behavior guilt made my eyes wet her face, me apologizing to her by the billionth peck on her warm cheeks...but by then she already had dozed off in my arms.
Realized only a child can make you feel like a loser in life.

Wish it would have been easier to forgive and forget for us matured and enlightened grown ups.

And I know tomorrow when I grow old...and become childlike(as every other old parent is), and she hurts me someway as a grown up, I will naturally forgive her like every other mother...and will embrace her.
Seriously I bet that no other relationship in this entire world can be as beautiful as the one shared by a mother and a child.

We usually want to preserve our false ego, give a lot of importance to self esteem and don't want to forgive. It is not that we all should become saints.
It is just that we should not get stuck to any situation or circumstance, carrying the huge load of ego, anger, grudge ,rivalry, tit for tat attitude, jealousy, all other feelings of negativity for others who give you the same treatment. This will only increase the burden on the already screwed up mind of a human being.
So instead try to simplify the situations thrown in, think, reason and simplify the reactions at the moment and whatever happens, just move on with the journey ...unloading all the unnecessary baggage from time to time to have a lighter mind for a better self.
Be at peace with your inner self and the world will be a better place to live.
And of course I can share all this with you when my mentor is asleep..

 As anyway she is doing her job even though asleep, invoking the philosopher and writer in me..
As usual, my little one is going on teaching me, grooming me to be able to handle life easily in her own way. And am taking tiny steps as a toddler in learning these facts of life....

Hoping to grow up fast along with her....!!!!
Thank you darling and sorry again for mamma's behavior..!! Love ..and only love to you.....

AI,a fairy tale too long..

"AI" is a typical Shankar movie with lots of glamor, fantastic locales, superb
cinematography, catchy music and loads of action. Though it is not giving a social message this time as in other movies like 'Gentleman','Indian','Mudhalvan','Anniyan'..,it simply delivers the logic of Love is blind as in our fairy tale 'Beauty and the beast', that Love is a beautiful bond between 2 souls, regardless of the external beauty.

The movie is a simple revenge story, with a very much predictable twist of tale. Actually anyone and everyone can guess who is the culprit and so there is no suspense to hold you to your seats.
It is a bit too long a movie of 3 hours which has very elaborate action sequences which most of the time make you cry for help(not for the hero, but for yourself)..The only things which keeps you put for the entire duration are the songs and their picturisation. Few scenes and songs shot in the beautiful locales of lexiaguo and Guilin, china are worth watching on big screen.

 The Cinematography by none other than P.C.Sreeram is breathtaking, don't know whether to credit him or the director for choosing such lovely locations for shooting.

Vikram has done a commendable job just like in his other movies pushing himself to the extent of donning an ugly look, which most of the heroes might back off from. Don't know how he has managed to pull off 3 different sizes and looks in the movie starting with a body builder to being a slim, lean model to a feeble, weak look seriously his determination and struggle for achieving the same might have been enormous. but at the same time he should try more meaningful movies for an actor of his caliber, one which can completely exploit the performer in him.

The beautiful Amy Jackson is stone faced with zero expressions throughout. Shankar always tries these pretty new faces, but I think he needs to get them some acting classes before they are essaying the roles.

A.R.rahman has done a good job in music, though not excellent. The song "pookkalae sattru oyivedungal" is beautifully sung by Shreya Ghoshal and Haricharan and amazingly shot in the picturesque locales.
Definitely, one time watch just for the crores of loot spent on the beautiful sets, locales and the evergreen Chiyaan Vikram.

 3 out of 5 stars for Shankar's "I"(AI).

PK, a nice attempt by Hirani

"PK", the most awaited movie of the year by the deadly combination of Aamir khan and Rajkumar hirani gives a dose of our 101 religions ,god and god men in an intelligent but humorous way.

 It is a satirical take on how most of the people are blinded by superstition and religious nonsense.
Aamir khan as usual excels in his role as an alien...with his natural and powerful expressions and performance. His cute face makes him a perfect fit for his role and he has once again proved his mettle as an actor par excellence.
Anushka Sharma is ok in her role, though her lip job definitely makes her look funny in certain angles and scenes.
Bomman Irani, I really wonder what made an actor of his caliber who gave us such powerful performances in history to choose such small, no-value-add roles in his recent movies be it this one or previous ones like HNY. Seriously he is insignificant here when compared to his memorable roles as Prof. Asthana and Prof. Virus. He should start focusing on good roles than showing his gratitude to old friends.
Sushanth Rajput singh has little to add, but It was a happy sight to see Sanjay dutt on screen again in a jovial role.

Rajkumar hirani has delivered yet another great entertainer in PK, with his Midas touch.
Having a natural flair for comedy, he has always done justice delivering a message through his simple movies with a dash of humor and definitely, he succeeds in this attempt too.
Though the story goes a little slow after interval and lacks the natural flow as in 3 idiots(which for me by far is the best movie till date),the sheer star presence of Aamir shrouds all those minuses.
People who have seen "OMG"(paresh rawal) will see similarities in the thought behind the movie and FYI that also was a fantastic movie.(watch it, if you haven't earlier)

Music by Ram sampath and Shantanu moitra is catchy, with simple hummable songs just like RKH's previous movies.
Aamir looks adorable in "tharki chokro" and "love is a waste of time"..doesn't look like his age at all.. 50yrs old...I doubt:-)

A great movie of 2.5hrs with a simple storyline, good humor, music and performance delivering a message to us, the people on earth.There is only creator of all of us, but we have created/bifurcated multiple images of him in the name of religion.
That the god/ image of god created by different religion and god men advocating those religions are only false images and it's nonsensical to follow religious nonsense in the name of god and rituals.
It somewhere echoes my idea too, as I have expressed earlier in my write ups, that God has never wished for these so called religious practices in the name of worship..
He only aspires people to be humane enough to Co-exist peacefully , understand each others problems and help/support in difficulty, that being the biggest worship/prayer offered to him.
That we are all creation of god and that the creator of all should be worshipped as a faith,universally..in a sensible manner,rather than falling prey to petty rituals and superstitions.
Do we have some sort of seal on each of us by the creator to differentiate one other.
This difference and division is bought in by us great humans by creating and following millions of god and alienating each other by the religious practices.

Definitely worth a watch!!!This feels like a fresh breeze of air, among the 100 stupid movies released this year which felt like stink.
Good attempt..and a Paisa vasool..!!Go watch it..

For a mother,a child defines ECSTASY...

Today I relived my childhood through my little Angel.I felt ecstatic, tears forced their way out of my eyes, because of the happiness surging inside.
It was not ME sitting there watching her perform, but a proud mother of a lovely blessing of god..... whom I felt, was just sometime back wriggling inside my womb, is already dancing on a stage, in front of a huge audience..!!!

I have been this tension and worry freak for quite sometime , in matters pertaining to her be it me cryi...ng when she got her first vaccination(and subsequent ones too),her fevers, her colds, her any discomfort/pain, me sobbing in front of her school gates on her first day, or getting nervous before her first stage performance..everything till now.. and further on..

I had sleepless nights with nightmares thinking what she would do and how she would react. Though hardly a week old to her new environment of playschool, she didn't hesitate or cry a wee bit but, enjoyed herself and danced with full of life..!!
And I couldn't help but also dance in the place I was sitting seeing her enthusiasm, clapping loudly with the other parents,who were doing the same for their children..
Her tiny sparkling eyes were searching for us amidst the audience .and finally that glitter in her eyes and energy inside her catapulted to a different level once she spotted her most admired faces of Amma, appa and ajji among the unfamiliar faces.
She smiled, wiggled, jumped, grooved, danced away to glory...
 And my heart was matching the same beats and dancing inside and I didn't remember anything else for those 4-5 minutes.

 I forgot everything..no worries, no tension...just felt being in a trance.. sheer joy ,excitement, happiness and all other feelings with synonymous adjectives..
Wow!!what an experience and what an awesome feeling seeing the life YOU bought into this world taking its own shape and growing beautifully .Priceless..!!!
Another addition to my treasure chest of memories...

Thank you baby for making me proud of my existence in this world.. again and again..!!

But the saddest and toughest part of a child's upbringing and growth is that the children grow out of our comfort zone in no time and open up into a new world with all the new learning and new connections, where as we parents never grow up. They always remain our babies and we always want to protect and shield them with the armor called love..
With a ray of hope inside that some day at a later point in life ,the child will offer us the same armor of love or at least cherish whatever we have provided them.
And the same question repeats inside me..
Why at all they grow up??

'CHILDREN' the super 'ABSORBERS'

It is sheer ecstasy when you see your little one growing up and do certain things which are pleasantly unpredictable at times.Specially when they remind you of the manners and things you taught them. My little one says 'excuse me' if I/anyone sneezes, yawns.. and forgets to say the phrase, Says 'thank you' for almost all things ,says 'sorry' even if I stumble and hurt myself, or she hurts herself:-),says 'please' so pleasingly that I feel guilty sometimes, She says 'clean up' if things are lying haphazardly and she wants everything to stay put in its destined place..be it the phone in its cradle, spectacle on her grandfather's eyes when it's lying around or on his head, the used plates in the sink, play things in the play basket everything..
Even if am negligent sometime(though generally am not, I pretend in front of her to see her reaction)..she takes it up to get the things done..)
Children definitely are super absorbers taking and pulling in everything you give them and emitting exactly the same kind of output..

 They being wonderful observers, react to different situations and do things the same way you tend to do in that situation..imitating your every move.
They act as mirror reflections of your own self. If you see a clear image of self in them, then you are going on the right path or if you see a distorted image, first you need to mend yourself of the projections you are giving them.
So expecting calmness from them while you display anger, cleanliness but showcasing a messy environment, respect by showing disrespect, practicality showing illusions is illogical..
BE and DO, what you expect from you child.

They are like clay molds at an early age and can be given a proper shape, based on your artistic talent. They assume whatever shape you give them and once done, it is very difficult to reshape the structure.. so carefully and smartly mold them to be beautiful structures, which can stand on its own in life over time and withstand any obstacles and calamities staying erect.
Giving them a foundation so robust and strong, that they do not break down at any point and stay put under any circumstance..facing the challenges life throws with a smile, until finally that life itself bows in front of them to be it's master.

Am no pro in parenting, but my kid makes me feel good about myself being a mother. Whatever I try to express in my write ups about children is just to make people realize the tiny immortal joys of motherhood, which one should never miss in the hustle bustle, other tensions/worries and the mad race of proving ones individuality. Slow down and take time to appreciate these small moments.
For me these are the moments which are making my present life worthy and will make my life worth living at a later point too with a treasure box of these lovely memories gathered and stored.
The feelings anyhow cannot be put in words, words fail me every time I try expressing that joy surging inside a mother seeing her child grow in her shadow.

She sleeps peacefully undisturbed...detached by any of the worldly tensions interacting with GOD, her creator....,as I lay awake looking at her innocent face...
Hope I could sleep like her....!!!
