Keep watch on Time

This weekend i went to watch shop to mend my couple of old watches and get them back on track with current time. Watch shops are having poor time these days since mobile phones have come or may be you can say, the new era of digitalization had come, even watches are also now e-watches which can track our sleep, our steps, our blood circulations. Even works as assistant to us reminding all important activities which we need to do for the day.

I was just talking to this horologist, who was saying old watch manufacturers are out of market and whose ever are left are pretty expensive because they are meant for matching the style and fashion of today.

As he repaired my watch and handed over back to me, i told him its showing the date as 9th Jun, whereas it is 8th Jun. The reply which the horologist gave me was awaful - he told me sir, you running out of time, catch it as you had missed a day, Today is 9th Jun'19.

While coming back to home i realized the real meaning of the words said by the horologist. It was a real truth. Time flies and we even don't realize it, it is ticking second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year. Nobody was able to keep hold of it, only best thing what people had done is keep watch on their time to ensure they are not behind and running along with the time.

We are hearing the story about time gone never comes back but we realize it only when we get old and find what have we earned all this life running around the circles. There are few people who loves to be in past remembering the old times and memories are stuck, there are few people who are ahead of time who are always thinking of future, however there are very few who are walking along with the time but whosoever is walking in the present is a successful person as he know whatever had happened in past can't be changed, whatever is going to happen in future can't be controlled. So the best thing is Live in present and enjoy it at most.

Most Important part which i realized that why people use to wear wrist watches that was not to be some fashion trend or some gadgets, It was one of the important tool and discovery of human beings which helps us to track our present and keep reminding us to keep watching and ensuring we are on Track with the Present.

Grow Old with Someone you Love..............

My hair had gone grey, my eyes had gone weak. I am nearing onto my 70's, my old habits of late rising from sleep had changed. Now me and my wife had turned early risers. We are back from our morning walk. With a cup of tea, i am reading the newspaper headlines. Nothing much had changed politically in India all through these years. Priyanka Gandhi's son is on the verge to be the next prime minister of India, Kejriwal's son is still fighting against corruption. Lets put end to these newspaper stories here. Nikki (My Wife) is busy with her early morning Yoga session, she had turned 68 years old but still managed to looks 15 yrs younger than her age. I am gazing her my double lenses, its almost 40years of our togetherness and still it seems that we had just got married yesterday. Nikki raises her eyebrows from the corner and asks me whats in the breakfast honey? I distract myself and pretend that i had not heard her words. She speaks more louder with adding - "You...

My First Interview for Marriage Proposal

I was recovering from my viral fever & all hats of to my mom whose efforts had made me recovered so quickly. My platelet counts had gone below the standard mark & I had to take off from my office for almost 2 weeks. I informed my father about illness & requested if they can come for a while to take care of me. Since my mother is a heart patient so we generally avoid giving her shock or any such news which disturbs her. My father told her that we are going to Gurgaon for a while to meet Tinku & will stay for atleast 2-3days. (Tinku is my pet name, so don’t make a joke of it ok.) My mother was over surprised because my father hardly gets space/ time from his job. He loves his job more than my mother, so it was hard for my mother to swallow it so quickly. She had the only thought in her mind was of marriage proposal, she had been dreaming for my marriage for more than a year. Reality was hard for her to see as she got to know about my illness only when she arrived at m...

How to bring SMILE :-) when it is difficult to?

Its been longtime since i am writing this blog, there are reason when i write a blog..................Most of the time when i am happy & feel like smiling, i immediately jump on the blogger site to write my set of stories. A day before yesterday, i was so tired & was feeling very sad. Most of the time when i am sad, i try to go near by a market or a shopping mall that really delight me......I was just sitting at Subway restaurant with my Foot-long veggie delite thinking about - Why is it difficult to smile? When you feel that it is really difficult to smile everything seems to you very irritating, jokes looks like foolish, people looks like enemies, you want to be all alone, you don't get delighted with any big or good news........The same feelings are all around me, i am feeling difficult to smile, even there are lot of reasons to smile but yet my face is empty.................
