Lacking but Gifted.

Today, I got an opportunity to read for visually challenged students. I felt happy to see many volunteers who came to help them. Our role is to read or write the subjects for the students. I am new there today but i heard its happening for years and on every Sunday. If you like to help them just contact
Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan School‎
5th Cross Street, Nungambakkam, Chennai.
Well, i just want to talk about my experience there. It was an awesome feel, not only from helping them but also learning a lot from them. Yes, i did go there to read for them, but it was me who learnt the different perspectives of life from them. They never feel that they are visually challenged but they just challenge their visual perception, also they don't feel it us a burden. They just don't have vision, they just lack in a gift by The Almighty, but they are gifted with concentration, confidence, memory, talent, hope and many more good qualities. One of my friend said that they don't have an option of distraction. Yes, when i read ,my eyes go around 360' often - distraction for me, but they just concentrate and hear to what i read. They an advantage out of their problem. I feel there is always an advantage hiding in the problems we do face, we need to search for it to survive.
also,
Shankar.K, the guy who gave me an opportunity to help him shared his feel with me. He can't see from birth, and his brother too. His younger brother is mentally challenged. The reason behind was that their parents are blood relatives. We do know the marriage between two close blood relatives is not advisable scientifically/medically. Their kids will face problem like Shankar and his siblings. So please do advice ur neighbors or relatives or friends, if they plan for this kinda marriage unknowingly. Friends, please do post ur comments and links about the problem Shankar is facing, if u know. It would be helpful to know more about the problem in marriage between two close blood relatives.

Hell...pless

I was in a place which is totally new to me. Everyone in the place were new to me and their language too. I felt strange but i was happy to see them active. I was in a commercial space, i hope i was shopping. When i came out of showroom, i saw my bag was taken by a stranger from the baggage counter. I chased him shouting but no one seems to hear me. I followed him and he took a quick right turn when we crossed approximately 100ft. When i turned to right chasing him, i found 5 men of different age and different looks including the one who took my bag. The elder man in 5 stood straight to me with my bag and the other 4 at my sides - 2 on each side. I went straight to the man who had my bag but he pushed me and i was caught by 2 men and the other 2 started laughing. I tried to release myself from them, but they hold me tight. I started shouting for help, but i realized that no one heard me, even me, mouth was closed like Keanu Reeves in Matrix 1 and so i tried to release from them with my full strength but then i realized my hands and legs were not moving and locked. I tried, tried and tried to my extend to move back to reach the road behind which was busy with people and again i realized no one paid attention to this scene. I just want to fight and escape with my bag, but I was HELPLESS. I tried a lot but in vain. Then there opened a door of a Church somewhere near to me with bright light... i heard a voice saying," bus will wait for 15min and ... " oops! i was dreaming... and am safe!!! Bus conductor saved me.
I got these kind of dreams often when the place is uncomfortable to sleep. I remember i was chased by snakes and ghost often, though i ran far from them i will be in the same place without movement. I came to know that most of my friends got the same kind of dreams. Why do we get these dreams and what does these tell us?!
Am not Daniel, the Prophet to answer the dreams. Let me know if someone know about these kind of dreams.
Recently i saw this scene in the movie Yavarum Nalam, when Madhavan tried to chase the murderer/ghost to save his family, he will land in the same floor(2nd floor) though he was trying to reach the next floor. I had the same feel in my dreams too... HELPLESS....

The MOON and the Game

The summer is yet to reach the mid of the season, but the temperature has already reached the peak. This is the time when the Air Conditioner and fan spend maximum time with us than our parents or partner or friends. With loads of hope that I can feel night breeze, I stepped up to my terrace to spend few minutes without the help of fan, but in vain. When I felt it as natural and I need to accept it, the scenes in the sky paused me. The half moon was surrounded by millions of stars. The scene was beautiful and I am not sure why did I feel it as beautiful that night. In fact this is not a rare happening, it happens everyday!!! The truth is I missed it all these days because of the tall buildings, Edison’s artificial lights, internet, mobile phones, books etc. I asked myself, when did I feel the moon finally, the answer is on feb 7th 09, when I was to beach. I felt strange. What made a long gap of 2 months between me and the moon? The moon has played a special role in everyone of our life with or without our sense. All our dinner started with the mom showing the moon when we were kids, all our K.G started with the rhymes about moon, all our high school science started with the info about the moon, all our first poem started expressing the beauty of moon, all our first crush resembles the beauty of moon and all of us wanted to land before our life would end!!! I decided to spend few minutes with nature everyday from then. I don’t want to miss it anymore.

I started enjoying the scene. Oh yeah, those glowing group of stars are my family, star towards north is Gowtham, here comes the couple stars Jugs and Ishu, those invisible stars are Ophy and Godi, hmm that fat white star is Anand, oh there is Mani twinkling his eyes, that chota star is Nisy, the other smiling star is yogi, the other star far alone is Balaji moving nearer, hmmm there is a group of stars from my college, the stars on other side is from my school, haan, here is my other friends, Aazraya and many more left to add with the beautiful Moon at centre which is the LOVE. Wow!!! Am lucky and this game is interesting too …
