Have you ever thought of this before?



I saw this picture few days back posted on FB. Have a close a look at it.  Read them with a conscious mind.  



Yes it is true. that is the mother. Do you think that there is something missing in this explanation you have read few moments ago ago?  

i am not going to analyze the role of mother or her image of our society. the place that she holds within our worlds. 

i don't know whether you will agree to this my idea. we, the readers ( this has a broader meaning it is not just reading papers or articles or faces) are lazy or don't try to read something focusing fully or totally on what ever you read. we are little lazy to analyze what is not written. the hidden side the things that say without really saying 'directly' 

let me come back to the picture above posted. 

people always get one side of something - views and thoughts i am thinking of such things ( I should say some people) and forget the other sides or never try to look at the things behind or hidden.  There is an excuse because when something is hidden it is difficult to view it, one has to go find it.  still, I learnt it is not that difficult to view something hidden or something not always visualize before our eyes.  one has to put some efforts. that is all.

am i repeating the same again and again? you will feel little boring to read when there is too many repetitions :)

So let me come to the picture that you have carefully watched and I am sure by now ‘you have some thoughts about the picture and its saying plus some thoughts from your side.
This, the little story is not unknown to you. If you are bread and born in this soil you know it.

I think today I don’t have to use my words unlimitedly like I always do. yes i agree amma like to give the biggest share of what she has cook for his husband. i am not surprised. that is the general thing that is still happening in most of the places of this world. i noticed. This world we live world equal to the society we live. the portion he gets not second to anything. he always complains. 

'who can eat this much of rice'? 

that is his question always that mother gets from his side. we need to listen to these words not forgetting to read his face. you need to do both at the same time. don't look the other side and listen when something is saying to you by a person. it is essential and important to read both words plus explanations written on faces, immeasurably valid. 

In the old society there was no ' big dining tables' and comfortable chairs that we sit around a table and eat except in some families. 'individual' serving i encounter mostly. it is not bad. this is not a complain don't get me wrong. so takes his plate from amma and sits some where that he feels comfortable seating.

 'self service' - buffet this is the concept that we are familiar with now. may be this has happened due to 'the busyness' of this world.

no i am not complaining about the existing - current, society and its patters. 

ok let me not forget the rest of the members their children always gets their share after him. Sons and daughters. 

there is no 'NEWNESS' about what i write here. you know it well. it is always good to 'refresh our minds not forgetting the things that we already know. it is not just history. 'revitalizing thoughts' always add good to our minds. 'this is not just a old society story'.

you may see the same what i explain here in other ways 'existing or practicing' in this society. one particular action or thoughts have different facets. how can we forget that. we can't.


yes the explanation is accurate ( given in the picture) to a certain extent. there is (sometimes) little left for her. this shows nothing else but her love towards her family.

all have finished eating their meal. and gone. there is one person still eating and at the same time complaining remember what he said earlier'

who can eat this much of rice' 

he eats only a half of what she has given to him.  he keeps the rest what is remaining in the plate somewhere close to 'pots and pans' in the kitchen and he moves away.

who eats them , the mother.

do you think that the father can not eat what she has given to him. there is no problems as such.he keeps the half for her. that is a huge thing for her.

she eats and she knew  and she understand his heart.  but we never think of such things. we are a failures in such things. but we talk of most of other very big things ' including sharing' we don't realize the 'shared and sharing within sharing' why? we always think of 'my share' not our share. some shares are different to this share i am talking about now. this shares or sharing has nothing to do with 'markets and rates'.   

we most of the time forget what our fathers do behind wishing his children luck thinking of close ones relatives he does things without telling what he does. sometimes we never get to know such things.  

look at this picture as well.



if you love both your mother and father share this 

have a meaningful year ahead 'may all your dreams come true' may you always be surrounded with 'HAPPINESS' , and good friends and thoughts' 

happy new year  - 2013.
