Eeeee........Neele Gagan le Tale, Dharati Ka Pyaar Pale....
Love and romance are still in the air and nothing like an old Hindi number to remind ourselves about it as we begin another day under the sun.We get enough of a dosage of current affairs both global and national as it is, so why clutter our minds further by filling this site with the same ? This sacred space is a home to all of us ,where we are free to express our views and feelings without hurting those of others.The day started yesterday with members continuing to greet the " new kid in town ", Kang, and he was cheerfully acknowledging one and all with his customary gung-ho spirit.
What with the temperatures soaring along with the Covid figures topped off by the India-China standoff, the conversation soon veered towards that.There is a surge of anger, patriotism, empathy and even tears. The blood boils at the state of affairs. While it is heartening to see everyone sharing their feelings and knowledge, It is also sad to see intolerance for the views of others and disrespect for brothers-in-arms, both serving and retired. As some pointed out - leave it to those who are officially responsible to handle these affairs. Satbir praji did his bit to quell feelings and so did Shivshankar and Sawant with their well-rendered songs. Naithani also attempted to cool down tempers along with Satish Pandian. The joke about " fused bulbs " was aptly brought to notice.In the evening, Katoch - who still seems to be immersed in memories of the valleys of Chamba, shared a very well-sung soulful number. He was moved by the sight of the lovely marriage and honeymoon pictures shared by Arun Parasar. A gentle reminder to Rakesh Luthra to keep this flag flying by starting off his own wedding tale as promised.
The webinar on leadership traits of kindness and forgiveness last evening was very well-conducted by SBT. Both Murali and Dr. Chaudhry spoke very well and it was an informative experience. All can go through the video on the same and try to apply these principles in real-life situations. After all, what use is table-top knowledge that cannot be applied on ground ? Those still inclined to shed patriotic tears can listen to the ultimate in this genre posted by Chandan - ae mere watan ke logo.... .and cry to their heart's content. Trust a Bong to come up with the apt number to stir the emotions ! Shivshankar rounded off the day with a well-sung - " pyar diwana hota hai......." JC Sharma actually wished goodnight but Nirbhye had the last word with the video - Mahaballipuram to Galwan. Have a nice Friday, everyone.
