Indian Relatives at a wedding!

​This is an illustration of what happened when my brother got married. A huge day for all of us as we were welcoming a new member to our family. Being the bridegroom's brother,a lot of responsibilities were on me. Weddings means a lot of relatives. Relatives are of many kinds. Some of the kinds of the relatives I observed in the last ten to fifteen days may be described as under. First kind of relatives are those who are really interested in the wedding and are keen to do work.These relatives are very helpful and understanding. Second kind of relatives are those who do auxiliary work i.e. their work is is not significant but it acts as a catalyst. Another kind of relatives are those who come only so that they could read newspaper with no intervention. Next kind of relatives are the cunning ones. They show that they are doing work and the program is going on because of their work but instead they do nothing,just move from on from one place to another. The remaining few have a combined goal i.e. food. They are only seen active when the food is ready and served. But however they behave, after all they are our relatives and we need them to share our joys and sorrows.

Love of Parents!

Our college has a small canteen where we hangout. It is run by a middle aged couple. They have a son who is about 2-3 years old. Many times they bring him to the canteen. He plays and runs all around the canteen from one table to another and also in the parking outside it. In such a small age he has very less knowledge of what is right and what is not. He just knows one thing, that is, his parents are nearby him and whatever he does will be taken care by them. Sometimes he remains out of the canteen for long and his father goes on his search. He has this bench in the canteen where he sleeps. His mother, even if there is a rush, makes the bench vacant for him to sleep. This is the love of parents. They do whatever is possible for our good and pleasure. And all we see is their beatings and scoldings. We should remember we are here because of our parents and even if we try for a lifetime we cannot repay them for what they have done for us. So respect them, honour them and obey them. Dedicated to all parents.
