Priceless Pleasures

Taking snaps of your sibling while he/she is asleep!! Later make fun of him/her in the Bhaiyyon aur Beheno mode…

Fighting over the TV remote, when you enjoy the same shows that the other person loves!! Well, sometimes ofcourse you prefer to watch utterly disappointing but still intriguing Kekta shows..

Waiting for that forever favoured Gandhi tata (Rs. 500/- note, in layman terms ;) )which my granddad gives once a year to buy new clothes!! Hmmm, I know what you’re thinking, but its in the gesture buddy!!

See your dad’s face light up when he’s told he is a genius…

The look on your mom’s face, when you stand for her cooking amongst the whole bunch of ladies ;)

Wait eagerly for the ajji koodulu guy who comes in the evenings….

The list of these simple pleasures in life can be never-ending. As we grow and the years pass like a smooth powerpoint presentation, we are so engrossed, many a times muddled, and yawn at life just like in a late noon presentation. Take a break. Sit back and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. They don’t come with expensive price tags. Nevertheless, they’re Priceless!!

PS: Hope u liked the read. Comment on what you hold priceless, I’d love to read what you think as well!! :)

Kavita, its really Good to know that you still recall your days among ur grandparents, not to mention, the way you have expressed their LOVE and AFFECTION towards U !!!. One question that ponders in my mind @ this juncture... WHY... at this point of time u have recalled ur SWEET(as u put it ...)Memories, any special reasons that u would like to share. what i like the most about ur writing is that ur very expressive about ur THOUGHTS in simple and self explainatory terms. why not being true to ur name !!! ( KAVITA ).. try ur hand at some poetry as well... something that would take us all through the memory lanes...

(let me stop at this else my comment would grow bigger than ur article :) ).

KEEP WRITING.
Guns.
