The Hardest Thing To Say Last Good Bye...

I got a call from my brother on a fine Sunday morning, was watching "Satyamev Jayate", it was the last episode of this serial so was involving in it. He said his friend's mother was no more with us. i cut the call and tears were in my eyes, second time was hearing the news of someone's death who was very close to me and my family. first time it was my father and at that time i was too young to understand what i had lost, lost forever.

After half an hour or so i have decided to go to see my aunty who was such a sweet lady and was adorable to all who know her, i never heard her utter any complaints in all the years we had been meeting and it had been 12 years for our family knowing each other.
She was my brother's best friend's mother n her daughter is a good friend of mine and sister.
i reached her home it was raining then, i entered the main gate n if it were some other day my aunty must have been watching me from balcony and i were waving her in response but that day i was seeing her lying under the porch, not able to see me, not able to smile, not able to offer me tea, delicious food or not able to ask me to come and watch some serial or Nirmal baba's show with her.
Now i saw my friend was crying restlessly and asking everyone that how she'l live without her mother, has she lost her mother forever, i stopped shedding tears after realising her pain and it was needed to hide it infront of a daughter who had lost her loving mother and the girl who was aware that her mother was not goin to come back no matter how hard she may cry this time and still was calling her mother back so they both might live together.  
We were facing the ultimate truth of life, sooner or later, all will face the same end.  

But till we are alive....

Its hard to believe, its hard to accept, its hard to remember, its hard to forget, its hard to move on, its hard to stay, its hard to smile, its hard to visit the vacant place again, now i come to realise that it is the hardest thing to say last good bye.

"Satyamev Jayate' How many reminders does society need!!

Satyamev Jayate.. a TV show of Aamir Khan. Show aiming to bring change in common people's life thru discussing social issues.


YOU HAVE SEEN


In the very first episode Aamir brought an issue of Female Foeticide in India.
Show displayed figures, facts, guests (mother) who have faced this problem of being forced to abort their girl child, the journalist who captured docs doing dis prohibited act on camera, lawyer who told,how the judge said its normal expecting  male child,, All aspects of Female Foeticide have been discussed in the show.


NOW 


When i was watching this show one more TV show came to my mind, Zindagi Live on ibn7. Zindagi Live had also  discussed almost all the issues relating to the society. 
So,,  


Why that show wasn't talked about as this one of Aamir
Why that wasn't covered by media as  this one of Aamir
Why that wasn't commented by all Bollywood, haven't been blogged by AB as this one of Aamir,
Will this show change the game or only will write some rules to be followed by other TV shows.
& the most haunting question is 


Why we the people haven't changed after watching Zindagi Live, why these issues still exist to be captured by Aamir,
   

bow down to Aamir, he has a charismatic personality, simple yet effective. good show. good intention.
He is using all communication tools for "Satyamev Jayate' or for the well being of society. 

For the viewers, 
These all issues are know to us for long so stop discussing it again and again. 
Forget the show only remember a small part of it;
Aamir's jadu ki chhadi :- WE ARE THE CHANGE, 
                        & WE"LL BRING POSITIVE CHANGE IN LIFE.

When an stranger waved at u!!

I am already late in leaving office now standing at bus stop,but there is no sign of my bus, no auto as well. the reason behind this, there is some road block by Anna's supporters. what to do now. Evening is now going to turn in night and Delhi in night or night in Delhi means not so safe.
I am also new in Delhi among one of those girls who come to Metro from small town after having professional degree but seeing no job in there own town. 
Now i am seeing a bus coming & people are running to get in, i am not able to manage to get in, what to do now, what if i will be left alone here,, very worried then suddenly seeing a woman giving her hand to me, hope has returned. she is now pulling me inside the bus. I am in the bus now. She also managed to get a seat for her as some are reserved for ladies. She is very much talkative,in this crowed bus, full of body odor, even one cant breath freely,she is full of herself. She is telling me about her family, ill husband, her job as a cleaner in a good office, even without all these not so worth mentioning situations of life,she seems fine doing 9 to 6 job in office, performing double duty at home. 
Now i am not able to face this over crowed bus. People pushing each other intentionally or unintentionally, i am also not comfortable in this new high heel shoe. The woman stands up and offering me her seat, still telling me something. I have seat now, listening her more attentively. Now journey seems fine, she is not my friend and i don't share things with strangers but i have also stared telling her about me.
Finally my stoppage has come, i am leaving seat and asking her to take it again, saying thanks.i have disappeared in crowed,get down from bus after a struggle.
Feeling relief to see my bus stop,breathing in fresh air ( more fresh than was in crowed bus)after an hour or so. 
Suddenly the lady comes to my mind i turn to the bus, she still watching me from window, showing her ever smiling face without having more in life, SHE HAS CONCLUDED MY DAY, SHE IS NOW WAVING AT ME...
