Then were 'Mungerilal ke hasin sapane' and 'karamchand' ...'Vikram Betal', etc.
How did one survive growing up in the 80’s and 90's?
We had no seatbelts, no airbags..
Cycling was like a breath of fresh air…
No safety helmets, knee pads or elbow pads, with plenty of cardboards
between spokes to make it sound like a motorbike…
When thirsty we only drank road side tap water, bottled water was still a mystery…
We kept busy collecting bits & pieces so we could build all sort of
things … and we were fearless on our bicycles even when the brakes
failed going downhill…
We were showing off how tough we are, by how high we could climb trees
& then jumping down….It was great fun….
We could stay out to play for hours, as long as we got back before
dark, in time for dinner…
We walked to school, or sometimes we even rode our bicycle.
We had no mobile phones, but we always managed to find each other…. How?
We lost teeth, broke arms & legs, we got cuts and bruises and bloody
noses…. nobody complained as we had so much fun, it wasn't anybody's
fault, only ours
We ate everything in sight, cakes, bread, chocolate, ice-cream, sweet
sugary drinks, fruits.. yet, we stayed skinny by fooling around.
And if one of us was lucky to find a 1 litre coca cola bottle we all
had a swig from it & guess what? Nobody picked up any germs...
We did not have Play Stations, MP3, Nintendo's, I-Pods, Video games,
99 Cable TV channels, DVD's, Home Cinema, Home Computers, Laptops,
Chat-rooms, Internet, etc ...
BUT, we had REAL FRIENDS!!!!
We called on friends to come out to play, never rang the doorbell,
just went around the backdoor…
We played with sticks and stones, played cowboys and Indians, doctors
and nurses, hide and seek, soccer games, over and over again…
When we failed our exams we were given a second chance by simply
repeating the same grade…without visiting psychiatrists, psychologists
or counselors…
Such were the days…
We had freedom, success, disappointments and responsibilities. ..
Most of all, we learned to respect others…
Are YOU from that generation ??
Hope, may this post will help to forget the stress that surrounds us
these days….and just for a few moments puts a smile to our faces as
we remember what life was really like in the good old days……

peaceful smile
In the picture, just look at their condition.. no place to sleep, still they have
made some space for d cat n d dog... water poring from the roof but still
each 1 of them have a peaceful smile on their face.. Simply amazing!!!!!
The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,
but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.
Keep Smiling Always.
moving ahead
When people talk behind your back, what does it mean??
Simple! It means that you are two steps ahead of them!!
So, keep moving ahead in Life!!
