HUSBAND APPRECIATION DAY

 Thursday, March 27, 2025

Today is Husband Appreciation Day .

Let us keep 2 minutes silence and read some quotes of great personalities. 

First quote

After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin, they just can’t face each other, but still they stay together.

– Al Gore 

A good wife always forgives her husband when she’s wrong.

– Barack Obama 

When you are in love, wonders happen. But once you get married, you wonder, what happened.

- Steve Jobs 

And the best one is…

Marriage is a beautiful forest where Brave Lions are killed by Beautiful Deers.

- Brad Pitt 

National Husband Appreciation Day !! 💐😀

Laughter Therapy 

While getting married, most of the guys say to girl's parents, 

" I will keep your daughter happy for the rest of her life ".

Have you ever heard a girl saying something like this to the boy's parents like I will keep your son happy for the rest of his life 

Nooooo ... because women don't tell lies! 

If wife wants husband’s attention, she just has to look sad and uncomfortable.

If husband wants wife’s attention, he just has to look comfortable & happy.

A Philosopher HUSBAND said:- Every WIFE is a ‘Mistress’ of her Husband…

Miss” for first year & “Stress” for rest of the life… 

Position of a husband is just like a Split AC, No matter how loud he is outdoor, He is designed to remain silent indoor.

Share to make others smile...!

Laughter Works Like Medicine! 

Today is world husband's day... All husbands cheer up... At least one day in a year is dedicated to the helpless husbands  ..!

RIDING IN BIKE - EXPERIENCE

13 March 2025

RIDING A BIKE - SHOBHA ARTICLE

ಇವತ್ತು ಸಂಜೆ ಕತ್ತಲಾಗುತ್ತಿರುವ ಹೊತ್ತಿಗೆ ಪೂರ್ಣ ಚಂದಿರನ ಬೆಳಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳೊಡನೆ ಅವಳ ಬುಲೆಟ್ ನಲ್ಲಿ ನನ್ನ ಭಾವ ಕಿಟ್ಟಣ್ಣನ ಮನೆಗೆ ಪಯಣಿಸಿದ್ದೆ. ಹೆಚ್ಚೆಂದರೆ ಹತ್ತು ನಿಮಿಷಗಳ ಬೈಕ್ ರೈಡ್ ಅಷ್ಟೇ! ಆದರೆ ಬೈಕ್ ಹತ್ತಿದ್ದು, ಅವರ ಮನೆಯ ತನಕ ಒಂದೇ ಸೈಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಬೈಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಳಿತಿದ್ದು, ಬೈಕ್ ಇಳಿದಿದ್ದು ನನ್ನ ಮಹಾ ಸಾಧನೆಯಾಗಿ ನನಗೆ ತೋರಿತು. ನನ್ನ ಹರೆಯದ ದಿನಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನಮ್ಮ ಬಳಿ ಇದ್ದ ಹೀರೊ ಹೋಂಡಾ ಬೈಕಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಮಕ್ಕಳಿಬ್ಬರು ಹಾಗೂ ಲಗೇಜ್ ಸಮೇತ ನೂರು ಕಿಮೀ ವೇಗದಲ್ಲಿ ರಸ್ತೆಯಲ್ಲದ ರಸ್ತೆಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನಾನು ಮತ್ತು ರವಿ ಸುತ್ತುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ದಿನಗಳ ನೆನಪಾಯಿತು. ಎಷ್ಟು ಸಂತೋಷದ ದಿನಗಳವು! ಬರುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ಅಲ್ಪ ಸಂಬಳದಲ್ಲಿಯೇ ಸ್ನೇಹಿತರೊಡಗೂಡಿದ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಕುಟುಂಬದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಂತೋಷವಾಗಿ ಕಳೆಯುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ದಿನಗಳವು! ದೊಡ್ಡ ಕನಸುಗಳಿಲ್ಲದ, ದೊಡ್ಡ ಬಯಕೆಗಳಿಲ್ಲದ, ಇದ್ದುದರಲ್ಲೇ ತೃಪ್ತಿ - ಸಂತೋಷ ಕಂಡುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದ ದಿನಗಳವು! ಈ ಬೈಕ್ ರೈಡಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಅವೆಲ್ಲಾ ಒಮ್ಮೆ ನನ್ನ ಕಣ್ಣ ಮುಂದೆ ಹಾಯ್ದು ಹೋದವು.

ಇವತ್ತು ವಿಪರೀತವಾದ ತಡೆಯಲಾರದ ಸೆಖೆಯಿತ್ತು. ಗಾಳಿಗೆ ಮೈಯೊಡ್ಡಿ ಸಾಗಿದ ಆ ಬೈಕ್ ರೈಡ್ ನನ್ನ ಮೈಮನಗಳನ್ನು ತಂಪುಗೊಳಿಸಿತು. ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳು ಒಳ್ಳೆಯ ಬೈಕ್ ರೈಡರ್. ಅವಳ ಜೊತೆ ಕೂತು ಹೋಗುವಾಗ ಯಾವುದೇ ಅಳುಕಿರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಅವಳು ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತವಾಗಿ ಗುರಿ ಮುಟ್ಟಿಸುತ್ತಾಳೆ ಎನ್ನುವ ಧೈರ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಅವಳ ಹಿಂದೆ ಕೂತು ಸಾಗಬಹುದು. 
ನಾನು ಬೈಕನ್ನು ಹತ್ತಲು ಧೈರ್ಯ ಕೊಟ್ಟ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ವಿಷಯವೇನೆಂದರೆ ಕಳೆದ ಮೂರು ತಿಂಗಳಿನಿಂದ ಬೆಳಿಗ್ಗೆ ನಾನು ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿರುವ ಸೌರಭ್ ಬೋತ್ರಾ ನಿರ್ದೇಶಿತ ಯೋಗ ಮತ್ತು ಲಘುವಾದ ಎಕ್ಸರ್ಸೈಜ್. ಕೆಳಗೆ ಕುಳಿತುಕೊಳ್ಳಲು ಒದ್ದಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದ ನನಗೆ ಬೋತ್ರಾ ಅವರ ಸೆಷನ್ ಬಹಳ ಪ್ರಯೋಜನಕಾರಿಯಾಗಿದೆ. ದೇಹದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಭಾಗಗಳು ಫ್ಲೆಕ್ಸಿಬಲ್ ಆಗುತ್ತಿವೆ. ಹೀಗಾಗಿ ನಾನು ಬೈಕ್ ಹತ್ತಿ ಕೂರುವ ಧೈರ್ಯ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದು!
ಅಂತೂ ಇಂತೂ ಇಂದಿನ ಬೈಕ್ ರೈಡ್ ಇಂದಿನ ಸೆಖೆಯ ಧಗೆಯನ್ನು ಕಡಿಮೆ ಮಾಡಿದ್ದಲ್ಲದೆ ನನ್ನ ದೇಹದ ಫ್ಲೆಕ್ಸಿಬಿಲಿಟಿಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ನನಗೆ ಆತ್ಮವಿಶ್ವಾಸ ನೀಡಿದ್ದಂತೂ ನಿಜ. ನನ್ನ ಒಲೆಯುವ ದೇಹವನ್ನು ಕೂರಿಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಬೈಕ್ ಓಡಿಸಿದ ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳಿಗೆ ‘ಥ್ಯಾಂಕ್ಸ್’ ಹೇಳಬೇಕಲ್ವೆ?!
