Some funny posters....

Couple of weeks before I went to Tirunelveli on a pilgrimage.. in the bus stand of Sri vaikuntam, I found a funny poster Inviting a Deputy Inspector General of Police for a function. And the pose that he has given for the photograph is excellent. If you understand Tamizh, the wordings used in the poster are too funny. And by the way, you cannot blame it because, the poster reads that the invitation is given by his grand son (from the photo he should not be more than 6-7 years of age) from London… :P :P

In the name of God.....What a waste??

In the name of God….

In the name of god, we do the most atrocious things in the world. It, at the first place, not even considered as a sin. To me, anything not done in a just way is Sin. Many things may be politically right but factually not just.

Recently, there was a temple that was constructed in Sripuram, Tamil Nadu for goddess Lakshmi with an investment of Rs. 600 Crores approximately $150 million in a 100 acre of land. The temple is constructed with gold and copper. It is a marvelous contribution for art. One who goes to the temple need to walk for a long distance and it is good for health. Lot of parks and plantations are planted in100 acres of land. It is a good place for tourists.

With all the goodness said above, I have some basic question.
~ In India is there a scarcity for religious worship places or a proper school or proper hospital?
~ In India is there a scarcity for religious rituals or proper education?
~ In India is there a scarcity of architecture or shelter for poor people?
~ In India is there a scarcity of opportunity for poor people for doing business or opportunity for rich people to go to religious places?

With Rs. 600 Crores, one can build 600,000 primary health centers, or 600,000 primary schools, or quality education for 6 million people or good food for loan 6 million people for starting up their business or a mixture of it.

Will God bless you by building a 600 crore temple or by building schools / health centers/ feeding poor?

………….what a waste of money!!!

Accept me as I am

If you accept me for what I am, I shall marry you... else forget it…the she says to the he and for the he, the phrase is bewildering.

“Accept me as I am” is a commonly uttered phrase from most of the single women of these days when something is discussed about matrimony. I wanted to understand what this phrase means to them and so I enquired some of my friends who happen to utter this phrase.

“I am not willing to change myself for the sake of some unknown person who happens to be my spouse”.“Why should I change, why not he change as per my way of life?”“I have been brought up like this for past x years and so I can’t”“I will not allow the man to be chauvinistic, and I would prove what women power is; after all if he wants something from me, then it is given only in my way”
What an interesting response, interesting perceptions, interesting way of thinking? Of course, few of them said it for the heck of it has it became a kind of fashion statement. To all of them my reply was just “oh good!”
How oxymoron is the phrase when this is expected out of a marriage?

Are they searching for someone who can be a really better half? I am worried; they shouldn’t finally convert the would-be-better-half to a bitter-half.

If she is brought up for past x years like that, so is he. If she doesn’t want to change for the sake of some unknown person who happens to be her spouse, so is he. And finally, marriage isn’t a trade that she sells something and expects something in return!!!

Should someone shout so loudly that marriages is best of compromises to become best of compliments?
