Marriages in India

Have you ever been to a marriage where you are the only family member?

It has been more than a year that I attended a marriage where I was the only family member available for the whole night, and the full family is consist of more than 50 people.

I WAS THERE BECAUSE I BELIEVE EVERY ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE THEIR LIFE PARTNER, GOOD OR BAD, WHATEVER. WHO AM I TO JUDGE SOMEONE? Ho sakta hai ki mujhe kisi insan se parasani ho par iska ye matlab nahi ki mai apne vichar puri duniye pe thop de. Us waqt mere akele hone ki em matr wajha ye thi ki kisi ne baki sabhi par apne vichar thop diye the, aaj v thopa hua hai aur log duvidha me kaha ki kya kare, kaha jai? Par sachai to yahi hai ki aap apne vichar ek bar to kisi pe thop sakte hai par bar bar bhut dino tak to nahi. Apne vichar apne tak rakhiye, dusro ko apne vichar jahir karne dijiye.

I really don't understand why do we have this culture to choose the life partner for others? where do we find this culture? I have heard of Radha-Krishna, Shiv-Parvati... I have heard of competitions where the winner would get the chance to marry the princess... I have seen movies, classical to modern, where either love marriage is promoted or arranged marriage is criticized. but I never found any demonstration of arranged marriage. 
Ok, I won't call arranged marriage wrong, till it is approved by the person who is going to marry. But do we have the right to forcefully make one marry our particular choice? like what we are? GOD? I don't think so. And even god would never do so. If you really want to choose, then, choose your own life partner. One has the full rights for that.

Another problem is early age marriage, especially in girls. Jivan ki sabse badi jimmedari hai bacho ki shadi aur jitni jaldi kar den utna acha? Sunte the ki pahle to janam hote hi shadi v ho jati thi, shukar hai ki aab ye nahi hota. isme ladko ko thodi chut hai, sayad sapne pure karne ka haq sirf ladko ko hi hai, ladkio ko kaha iski jarurat?
Agar aap sochate hai ki ladkiya apne sapne shadi ke bad v pure kar sakti to aap galt hai, pahli bat to ye ki agar koi parivar choti umar ki ladki ko bahu banana chahata to unki soch kafi choti hai aur aap ki beti ke sapne bhut bade. Dusri bat ki ek bahu ko pahle apne ghar parivar ka khayal rakhna hota hai warna wo achhi bahu nahi kahalati, to in sab ke bich sapne uski aankhon me kahi kho kar rah jai ge. 
Aapki beti me kuch kami hai? Nahi na? To aap ki beti ke liye bhut sare ache rishte aai ge, sahi waqt ka intezar kijiye, unhe v kuch kar dikhane ka ek mauka to dijiye.
Apni beti ko ek bhut hi kabil insan banne ke liye prerit kijiye ki wo kabhi kisi pe dependent na ho, ha aap apni jimmedari se mukt to nahi ho ge par mai aap ko wada kar sakta hu ki aap jab apni beti ko ek kabil Insan bana dekhe ge to har bar aap ki aankhen garv ke mare num ho jai gi. Aur utna hi abhiman aap ki beti ko v ho ga aap par. Aap duniya ke nazro me aur upar chadh jai ge. Aur iske bad v aap ki beti ke pas shadi ke liye kafi waqt ho ga. To tab aap apni jimmedari puri kijiyega. Aur abhi to sarkar v kitni kosish kar rahi hai, #BetiBachaoBetiPadhao jaise abhiyan chala rahi hai.

Chaliye mai aap ko ek chota sa udaharan deta hu ek pakshi ka. Ek pakshi jab apane bache ko janam deti hai to apane bache ke liye ghoshal banati hai, apane choch me khana la kar apane bache ko khilati hai. Phir jab uske pankh nikal aate hai to use azad kar deti uuche aakash me udne ke liye. Hum manushya kya karte hai jab humare bacchon ke pankh nikal aate hai? Unke pankh bandh dete hai. Jiska hume koi haq nahi. Mata pita to sirf janam data hai, bhagyavidhata to wo uupr wala hi hai. 

Pata hai sabse badi parashani kya hai? Samvad ki kami-  Maa bap aur bacho ke bich... Maa bap apne bacho se behad pyar karte hai aur unki har khuaish puri karte hai, bachpan se bade hone tak. Khushiya ki bat to chalo bilkul sahi hai, par parashanio ka kya? kitne bache aise hote hai jo apni glati aapne maa bap ko bata sakte hai? Aur hal aisa hota hai ki hum bhut badi musibat me v ho to v hume apane maa bap se bat karne me dar hi lagta hai... dosto ko bata den ge, par maa bap ko nahi. Bacho me bharosa to hota hai ki mumma papa uska sath den ge... Par wo himmat nahi hoti ki unke samane apane bare me kuch bol sake... Ise solve karne ke liye Maa bap ko suru se wo comfort zone banana pade ga ki bachi sirf apni achi baate hi nahi, apni buri se buri bat v aap ke sath aa kar share kar sake, agar aisa ho gaya to is world me suidcide ki count me bhut kami aa jai gi.
Aur phir shadi, Shadi ki bat to uske parivar wale hi kar rahe? To koi paraya hota to unse ladne ke liye becha himmat v karta par apano se kaise lade koi? wo kisi ko bata v nahi pata, kise batai ga? Aur kuch v batai gai to usme usi ke parivar ki burai jo gi... badi duvidha hahi...Aise waqt me bacho ko kisi apane ke sath ki jarurat hoti hai jo uske liye lad sake, use defend kar sake... 

Pata hai, is ekishwi sadi me agar aap ka beta kuch kar jai to bhut khushi hoti hai, par agar aap ki beti kuch kar jai to sina garv ke mare 56 inch ka ho jata hai. Shadi to hoti rahe gi par uske sapne aur khuaishon ko mauka dobara nahi mile ga. Aur shadi tab hi kariye jab aap ke bacho ko man ho, aur sirf unce jisce wo chate ho, wo aap ki ya uske khud ki pasand ho sakti hai.

NO FORCEFUL MARRIAGE, NO EARLY MARRIAGE.

May be we are SELFISH!!!

How was your last breakup?  Maybe you cried for about 3-4 days, were upset for few weeks, and finally, you were emotionally broken and decided never to trust anyone again. Right? Imagine how tough it would be for a girl who was physically abused!!! It was just an emotional attachment that turned you this much, it took you so long to recover, and that too not completely... What about her? Maybe she had relations with 100s, but it was with her approval. When someone refused to stay emotionally attached to you, you were broken for months. So how long does she require to recover from being physically abused??? I really don't understand why this happens, like what do we need?  Sex? Go for a prostitute you will have it, why to kill someone from inside?  Revenge with that particular girl? Take your revenge but at least maintain the level of your revenge, why to take someone's dignity in revenge? Revenge from someone else? How would it be if I slapped your younger b

WHAT I WOULD DO IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS ( not my story, coppied from a book)

This story proves the truth of that old saying, “where there’s a will, there’s a way.” It was told to me by that beloved educator and clergyman, the late Frank W. Gunsaulus, who began his preaching career in the stockyards region of South Chicago. While Dr. Gunsaulus was going through college, he observed many defects in our educational system, defects which he believed he could correct, if he were the head of a college. His deepest desire was to become the directing head of an educational institution in which young men and women would be taught to “learn by doing.” He made up his mind to organize a new college in which he could carry out his ideas, without being handicapped by orthodox methods of education. He needed a million dollars to put the project across! Where was he to lay his hands on so large a sum of money? That was the question that absorbed most of this ambitious young preacher’s thought. But he couldn’t seem to make any progress. Every night he took that thought to bed w
