Baby Squirrels and their mother



It was 4am today morning.. I got up from sleep because of some noise. I tried to search from where this noise was coming from? The noise was disturbing and constant. I went to drawing room and asked my mother about the noise.

Both of us went to the gallery of our house. Suddenly she said " Its squirrel, who is making noise. Her baby squirrels must be in the store room and she wants to meet them. As she is unable to come in the store room, she is making noise." Then we came to store room. We could hear the sound of baby squirrels. My mother told me to search. When I searched, I could find two small baby squirrels in the shelf near books. They must be 4 weeks old. Both were cute! Must be hungry and waiting for their mother. Trying to call her through their sound.


I took them in my hand and put them in a pot. suddenly my mother told me to put some pop corns in the pot so that they can eat something. I kept some pop corns in the pot and kept that pot in the Gallery and opened the window of gallery. Then we left the place. suddenly noise stopped. Mother squirrel met her babies.


after few minutes, gently I entered the gallery. I could see how mother squirrel was feeding her babies. I was amazed! After some time she took her babies and left our gallery and went on nearby tree. She might have felt that my house is not the safe place for her babies.


When she left the house, there was no sound but still I could not sleep. The incidence disturbed me. if these creatures want to stay in our houses, we get irritated! I feel we don't have the right to refuse them. Because we have created the cement jungle by cutting beautiful trees and made these beautiful creatures homeless.....

Defination of God

It was Tuesday afternoon. I and my friend went for walk after lunch. What he said during that 10 min was something great!

He visited his Friend's home to meet their child. The child is 3 yrs old. when he met that 3 yrs old girl, she started showing her toys to him -elephant, cat, dog etc. When she got to know that he is blind and can't see, she started explaining him about the toys and asked him to touch them to experience how they are!! My friend was touched with that experience.

He told me that she guides her parents as well because both of them are visually challenged! my friend said" Rajesh god is nothing but this. See that 3 yrs old baby, her understanding and the way she learnt how to explain and guide visually challenged people."

Swine Flu, I and ROP Inauguration

Recently I had visited Pune with a fear in mind for an inauguration of a programme. I took a bus from Dadar to Pune and during the entire journey, all the passengers were using mask and it was difficult to identify anybody. I called my friend to inform him that I am visiting Pune and to know whether we could meet and surprised to know that he was travelling in the same bus!!!
I got down at Pune Bus Stand and an Innova was waiting for me with a driver with a mask. When he saw me without mask he offered me one and told me the importance of wearing mask in Pune.
When I reached the venue of inauguration, the organizers told me that they had invited four guests for the inauguration programme but nobody turned out!! (Swine flu effect!!)They requested me to be the chief guest and inaugurate the programme. By the time of inauguration I started sneezing!!
While returning from Pune, I was not having a reservation. When I reached Pune station, I saw a big Que for ticket and it was impossible to get a ticket for Indrayani Express. I used an idea. I stood in Que and started sneezing!! within few minutes I could go to ticket window and get my ticket to Mumbai!!! (great sneezing effect!!)
I am OK without H1N1 virus in my body, But went through a thrilling H1N1 experience in Pune. When train left the Pune station I got SMS from my doctor friend:-
A lion stood in front of a pig and said: I roar and the whole jungle fears.
The pig replies:-I sneeze and the whole world fears.
See How things change with time!!
