Unexpected Guest

I met a 75 year old (or rather young) lady today. She and her Husband had come to visit my Landlady. They were old time friends when both their husbands were in Defence services. They were meeting each other after 45 years….!!! I was really amazed and really happy to see the connect that they all still had with each other.The lady , let me call her Dadima..coz she told me that she has a grand-daughter of my age.So, this Dadima had such an astonishing personality that awed me.She was smart, she was intelligent , she was well-read , she was well-informed and she was so fluent with her English and her pronunciation so accurate. And she was so aware of the latest fashion and trends – she took my hand into hers and looked at my nailpaint and remarked that they were a very nice shade.She complimented me that I had long beautiful fingers and she even admired the ring that I wore in my finger.She told me that she had been trying to find such a ring to gift to her grand daughter. Dadima had come from Cuttuck, Orissa and she told me about all the political situation of Orissa , Jharkhand …about the illegal mines and all.She even told me about the latest murder mystery in Koderma area near Ranchi about some girl named Niirupama. I was unaware of this news although I belong to Ranchi , maybe I’m not following the news channels since a few days. But , dadima was better aware of the world and happenings than me . She despised the unnatural and untimely death of a 22 year old girl and said that she herself is a Brahmin and doesn’t believe in casteism and things like that. She said she felt sorry for the boy who was lamenting on the national TV that she had promised him that she would convince her family and that when she would return , everything would be fine.Dadima, was dressed smartly in a crisp sari nicely pleated , a tight bun which made clear her face and a big red round bindi . She looked very smart , I must confess.She asked me about my work , my future plans and all. She was very loving.I had to leave for office , as I was already late , so I couldn’t talk much to her.But whatever interaction , I had with her , I liked it. Sometimes , totally unknown people can appeal to you so much . I liked everything about her , her presence itself propagated positive vibes all around . Instantly , I felt some positive energy all around.
I’m really glad, I met this lady today.

Intuition

Intuition--Is it something real?Is there a logic behind it.Why do we get intuitions ?I know it is something related to psychoanalysis, wherein certain things that are destined to happen to us give us an early sign by some way or the other.I don’t know about many people personally who get intuitions , but I sometimes get intuitions and they prove to be correct eventually.

I got up today morning and automatically picked up the phone lying next to me still in daze. It’s my habit every morning when I get up to call either my mom or dad.Earlier when I was a kid and used to be at home , when I got up in the morning ,I used to get up and automatically walk up to wherever my dad was. He would then hug me for sometime or if he would be reading his morning newspaper he would allow me to sleep for a little while more in his lap until he finished his newspaper, after which I would be sent to brush my teeth.Now that I don’t have my dad to hug when I get up every morning since we stay in different cities, I have become dependent on my mobile to get access to him n my mom. Some great man he was indeed...who invented the telephone !!!! It eliminates the distances and strengthens the bonds.And so , since I moved on to a different city, I call them every morning in the attempt that they will pull me out of my slumber and every morning this is what they do and tell me to go and brush my teeth !!!Everything still remains the same , physical distances apart.

Actually since a few days , I am getting some intuition kind of feeling , which I fail to understand. I don’t know something good is going to happen or something bad is going to happen or… nothing is going to happen…but there must be something.I had called dad this morning to tell him about it.But when he picked up his mobile, he told me – “ I’m in a conference, we’ll talk later”!!! Ohhh…my God… Who goes for a Conference on Sunday 11 AM ? Well..apparantly my dad does. Till date , I don’t know exactly what he does, but I know that he is involved in negotiations , tenders, bids and deals for his organization.Phew… whatever..looks big things to me and I sometimes fantize if someday I could go and win a billion dollar deal for my esteemed organization!!
Well , because I couldn’t speak to him , I now called my mom who was busy with her maid at this time of the day.Mom’s tape recorder is the same everyday. You got up ?? So late?What will u eat ? Has your cook come ? What has she cooked? Did you soak the almonds.I know u didn’t .Why don’t you do , It’s so easy .I do a thousand things and you cannot even soak a few almonds!!!! Phew…again.

Well all that apart, I now told my mom about my intuition and my feelings .She asked me –Are your eyes also fluttering. Left one or right one .Some old wives tale it is ,I have heard.Well , I told her everything and confided in her and she being my mother consoled me and told me not to worry and that everything will be fine. That reminds me of the “Aaall is Well” of 3 idiots   It is such a good way to console oneself.i’ll search more on google about intuitions ..where do they arise from , what is their source and are they for real. Well , what I am feeling is not clear,what is going to happen .Is it going to happen to me or to someone else related to me …. But I feel restless and clueless.
Only time can tell me what is in store for me and what were these intuitions about.till then I’ll perhaps rather wait..  


When the going gets tough
Smile 
When times are difficult
Smile 
When nothing seems to be clear
Smile 
When the darkest of nights is there
Smile 
Coz the morning is not far away
Coz every question has an answer
Coz God stores his best of surprises
When they are least expected by us.
