Reorganising my Blogs....

Of late I don't have much time on my hands to pursue all my favorite things. This blog is one of them. I have lots to share with you but the major problem is time. So I am not able to take proper pictures of my work and write my posts. One more problem is the erratic power supply. In monsoon season it is quite common that power supply is stopped when there are heavy rains or strong winds. With high surges in power, I am worried about all my gadgets. So posting of tutorials and my work is taking time.

I knew that I needed to organise my blog properly as it looked very cluttered and all of you are finding it difficult to browse through my blog. But again lack of time was the reason I could not take it up till now. 

I was actually confused as to where to start or what to do so that you all find it easy to browse and still am. As you can see I have already started reorganising. But it will take some time for me. I am not much tech savvy and also am slow. So i can do it slowly and steadily. So bear with me please.

I would like to thank Ms Sony Patel, who took time to point out certain things, which gave me courage to start this reorganising. Thanks a lot Sonyji, your suggestions have helped me a lot.

I would like to have your suggestions in this regard as to what and how I can do to re-organise. This will really help me. So please drop in your suggestions.

Thanks a lot to all my friends who visit my blog and take time to leave comments and suggestions which all help me a lot.

Baby Mahi-It happens only in India...

UPDATE:

Baby Mahi passed away within few hours of her falling into the well due to lack of oxygen. Her body was recovered after 90 hours of very tiring rescue operation.

My heartfelt condolences to her bereaved family. May God give them strength to face such a tragic situation. May her soul rest in peace. 

My salute to the army team who worked relentlessly in the rescue operation. 

I am really not out of the shock yet. Yes the chances of baby's survival were very remote. She fell into the well on Wednesday and we came to know of it on Thursday. By then we knew how difficult it is for some one to survive without oxygen, food and water. As the rescue continued hour after hour, the chance of survival was becoming dimmer and dimmer.

But then being humans, we have that little spark some where in our heart called hope. 

Now when it comes to the responsibility of such a tragic incident, everyone was after the government or the administration. Yes, they do have responsibility. 

But what about, the baby's mother and father, what about all those who were living there? Were they not aware that there was an abandoned bore well there? How can they allow their children to play in such an area? 

Are we all citizens not responsible for such things? Can we not take care of our homes, our children and neighborhood at least? Is it enough to think that it is someone else's responsibility and keep quite? Ultimately isn't it us who are suffering?

Especially children. They don't have parks or play grounds to play. They don't have time from their studies and other activities to play. They don't have safe environment. The child abuse is on the rise. Even if the children survive all these, there is still the threat of parents forcing them to become an engineer or a doctor or some other thing even against the wishes of the children.

With the big joint families fast disappearing and the small nuclear families on the rise where both parents work, the children are fast losing the security and the feeling of safety in the family. The parents are not able to cope up their own stress. They still try to give their children the best. But is it enough to provide the children with only material benefits? No doubt it is a difficult choice for the parents with poor and lower middle class backgrounds.

Now there are no grandparents or aunts and uncles to take care or interact with them daily. With whom do the children share their insecurities or fears? 

In olden days children felt safe and secure as they had elder cousins, aunts, uncles and grand parents to look after them. The parents never had to bother in most of the cases. The grand parents and other elders in the family played a major role in teaching them, the ethics, moral values and life skills so that they grew up to be happy and able humans. They could adapt themselves to any situations. OK! big families have their own problems, but in times of difficulties one always had the emotional security.

Now most of the the children brought up in small families are growing up as insecure, selfish and stubborn individuals, very reluctant to adjust or share with others. 

So where are we headed to?  Can we still sing the song....It happens only in India? May be all such things happen in only in India???????

So what is the solution?....How do we provide our children with a safe and happy environment?.....
