Coming maa...

"Please tell the reasons, just NO is not going to work"

silence from him... I asked him again

"Please, let us discuss debate and take it forward"

I am very persistent. Finally he opened up.

"It is not fair on the child"

Him famous one liners again.
I was stunned, how can this be unfair on the child?
Are we gonna be such bad parents ? Is that what he means. So I demanded an explanation from him

"Hello.. it is not. Infact we will strive to be good parents. Because, we both love kids . Isn't that enough?"

"I am not talking about us. That child will never be accepted as one of us by our parents/relatives"

Big sighhhh from me.

"Do you think I have not thought about it, it is secondary. Primarily it is us who should want it and be ready for it.
We can not base our life decisions on what our parents are gonna feel. Ofcourse , since this is not usual in our families we are going to face opposition.
We need to talk and deal with it and end of the day our parents or anyone has to make peace with it. It is us who is important for this decision. Isn't it?"

"It is not that simple for me. I think, instead of doing good we will be doing wrong with the kid. He/she might not have to face through the discrimination with in his/her own family.
I do not wnat to be reason for any child to have to go through it. This is end of this discussion for me. Please sleep now"

I kept quite and with many thoughts running in my head, sleep came as a finish line forcing me to stop the run.
Next day, I met my friend just to vent these thoughts. After all, friends are the only hope in these situations


We ordered our favourite beer (Beera). After doing the small talk about Bangalore's amazing weather and Modi ji's rocking decision of making Kashmir an UT
and some small office bitching, we came to the center point of discussion.

"so, tell me what is it that u wanna have a drink during a weekday"

"Yeah, it is about we wanting to adopt a kid, we have been discussing this for a while now. You know right, that I always wanted to do this."

"Hmm I know. So, is sanjay not with you on this?"

I told all about our recent conversation. By finishing the golden drops in her glass, she started speaking.

"See, I think we cant totally brush away what sanjay is telling you. opposition is to be expected more than you imagine as you are planning to adaopt out of choice and not by chance.
I know, you did not follow me. lem me explain. If you had tried hard for having biological kid and tried all possible solutions and then decided to adopt , even then people will not be happy.
But, in your case you want to do it because you wnat to and because you do not want to have biological kid. This is not soemthing that people will take it with open arms. They will get bombed just hearing this. They are gonna force you, blackmail you and beg you to have one biologocal and adapt the seond kid etc etc. "


She was going non stop, I stopped her gnaan giving flow .

"Helloo madam beera, I did not call you to hear things that I already know. I know all of that and I am ready to face them. Trying to alter my decision because our families can't understand logic is stupid. It is my life, my kid and they either can be good grand parents or keep us aloof. I leave it to their sensibility. With time seeing my affection on my kid they also will start liking them. They are very much against the idea when it is at idea stage but once we implement that idea they will slowly adapt. That;s the beauty of humans, we just adapt. They love me, I will love my kid so transitively they will also love them if not immediately , little later. It is just matter of time"

Silence for a while and then it was her who broke it.

"Though I do not totally agree with you, I have a suggestion. You know my colleague right? Revathi. She has taken this decision 15 years back. Her kid just finished her 10th class. She knew this fact quite early in her childhood. Revathi has informed her about this at a very early stage.Why dont you talk with her. See, end of the day we really will not know what the kid would go through. We can not presume things . This might give you some perspective. Just think about it."

I did not take even a second to decide on it.

"That's brilliant. Yes, I should talk with her. Thats right. You are a genius!!! A friend in need is friend indeed. I love you baby!!!"

Now, those last words was all beera talk:)

She made sure, we all meet at some event where her colleague with her daughter and me all are present. She hosted the party and I did not take sanjay with me.
I do not want him to be influenced by this talk because, if this turns out to be inline with what he is feeling it might take away any hope of me convincing him.
So, I came all alone and had atleast three different ways of starting conversation with her to get to this topic. Finally the moment arrived.


"So, how did you feel when you heard it for the first time?"

"To be frank, I don't think I have understood it all at that age. But, somewhere it answered some questions I had on why my grand ma behaves differently when my cousin is around."

"meaning? does she not like you?"

"No.no. it is not that aunty. How do I say this, so our grabd ma used to live with us. She is nice with me and all but when ever my cousin comes home. He is one year elder to me
and whenever we both are aound she kind of gives more priority to him. As a child I could not understand and I started hating that cousin. I thought he is the reason that is taking my grand ma away from me. My mom used to pacify me saying that since grand ma doesnot see him regularly she kinds of shows more love to him and that is all. I could not be convinced. But, once my mom told me about my adaption somehwere even at that stage I left may be that is why she behaves so"

"When you knew that, did you feel sad that you mother decision is responsible for making you go through all that?"

"Why?? No!!! On the contrary as I grew I started loving my grand ma more. See, she could have decided to totally ignore me, afterall I am not her blood. But she did not do that. She cared for me.
She had affection on me. She might not have loved me but how can I blame her. I am a decision that was forced on to her by my mother. She reacted very well given our families love for their own kin and blood"

I was really amazed to see her matured way of dealing with that. So much positivity.

"Coming to my parents, they are parents and that is all. I don't know any other life. Because of her now I have a family. Few people might love me less may be but if not for her I would not have had a family. I dont know what else to say. "

Her mother called her out and she left from there yelling

"Coming maa....."

I think I found my answer and I wish sanjay had heard this himself.

Our first north east trip:)

Itinerary

Bengaluru - Guwahati - Shillong - Guwahati - kaziranga - Tezpur - Tawang - Dirang - Tezpur - Guwahati - Bengaluru

22 december to 1 january total 11 days

22 landed in guwahati around afternoon from bangalore and reached shillong by 7pm- lot of traffic- shared cab (dezire) 500rs per seat and 4 people per vehicle.
23rd took bike explored shillong- elephant falls, sacred forest, shillong view point. Rent 500rs for yamaha ray Z.
24th explored cheerapunjee and stayed at pynursla near mawlyonng. Cab 2000rs
25th explored dawki, mawlyonng and reached guwahati. Cab 2500rs for dawki, mawlyonng. Cab 500rs per head from shillong to guwahati.
26th explored guwahati umananda temple(nothing great), kamakhya temple and reached kaziranga. Bus 350rs per head.
27th kaziranga national park jeep safari central range(650 per head for 4 people in one jeep), did not get elephant safari seats and by night reached tezpur. Bus 200rs per head from kaziranga to tezpur.
28th tezpur to tawang took one full day- 850rs per head- tata sumo- 10 people per sumo and one driver- congested but very economical- best seats 1,2,5,6
29th explored tawang by foot- budha statue, monastery, war memorial- if cab 1500-2500 for these 3 things
30th tawang to dirang- jhung falls, war memorial, hot spring, monastery. Personal sumo 5000rs
31st dirang to tezpur- nameri national park- not so great views. Personal cab 3500rs.
1st tezpur to guwahati to bangalore. Bus 250rs A/C volvo from tezpur to guwahati

Day 1: Reached Guwahati at 2pm from Bengaluru. Lot of cabs available just outside the airport. Mostly swift dezire vehicles, they charge 2000rs for one ride. So if 4 people share it will come to 500 per head. If you want to take 2 seats for one person also they are fine. If no traffic should take max 4 hours to reach shillong. If hotel is near the police bazar which is the center point in shillong
they will drop you near hotel. Else drop is till Police Bazar.

Per day active daylight is only between 6am to 5pm. Plan the day accordingly!!

Day 2: Rented a bike from a very sweet person (Albert) who came and gave the bike at hotel for a reasonable price(500rs per day) even during the peak season. Online services were charging somewhere from 700-900 for scooty.First headed to Elephant falls, its a small fall consisting of three steps passing through some nice views.
From there went to sacred forest. It has to be covered only by taking a guide as the whole forest is about knowing the culture of the place. Two kinds of packages is available. One for 30 minutes
and one for 1 hour. Guide charges 300 and 500 respectively. It is quite a nice walk inside the forest and interesting facts to know. Depending on the guide you might get less/more information. Lastly went to the view point, actually view point comes on the way to elephant falls itself, do not take the route that the google maps show. View point is just fine, nothing amazing. Something to be noted in whole of meghalaya is every place has entry fee and parking fee ranging from 10-50rs per place. We could not handle the weather and the cold breeze so we decided to take cab for next two days.

Cabs have some standard packages, 2k for cheerapunjee day trip, 3k for Dawki and mawlyonng trip and another 2k for local site seeing. If you can drive bikes those are the best as it helps beat the traffic also and turns out quite cheap. The distance is also not much so plan accordingly. 

Day 3: Started to cheerapunji, lots of water falls around here to explore wakaba falls, seven sister falls, nokalikai falls. Since we went durinng december lot of falls ran out of water. nevertheless views are amazing. Best of the falls is nokalikai(do read the story why the falls got this name), spectacular view. Masmai caves also can be covered on the way, huge cave of limestone that I have seen. With this finished the cheerapunjee trip.

Day 4: There are three things for this day, Cleanest village of India, trust me the place has a vibe of some European town. Does not look like a village from any angle. Second is the living root bridge. This is the single layer bridge, the double decker living root bridge is in nongriat village which we did not cover. As it takes is a full day trek, it is deep inside the village and even the trek is not a easy one. The single layer living root bridge itself is wonderful, truly one of the wonders of man. Along the way there will be lot of private properties claiming to have a view of Bangladesh but do not fall for them. The Bangladesh and India border can be clearly seen once we go to Dawki. Coming to Dawki one of the best things in whole of Meghalaya, the transparent water will give you goose bumps. Lots of crowd can be expected here, lots of heat also, boating is available for 1000rs per boat. After Dawki we directly went to Shillong to Jorabat as from jorabat we get a lot of buses to kaziranga

Day 5: This was a buffer day for us. We went to Kamakhya temple, the oldest hindu sakthi pitam. It is like a huge pilgrim center , so full crowd annd a big queue inside temple. There is 1000rs ticket which gives a faster darshan but the temple has a different feel and vibe around it. After this we had some more time so went to umananda ghat to get a look of Bhramhaputra river and there is a small ride to an island temple. Seeing these two places left to kaziranga by taking bus from Kharapana. Reached Kaziranga by evening 6:45pm, and the elephant ride tickets will be issued from 7pm at the central range. So went directly there and stood in the queue but had to leave bitterly without the tickets. As at central range the preference is given to foreigners and VIPs and at max there is only 30 tickets per slot and only two slots available. The process was not even transparent, few foreigners were present but mostly the agents were present and no clarity on who qualify to be a VIP. Hamara Bharath mahaaan!!!

Day 6: Took Jeep safari quite early in the morning to get better chances of sighting animals specially Rhinos and also because we can get some buffer time if we plan to go for another ride.
In kaziranga national park, three ranges are available. central, western and eastern ranges. Central and western both have higher chances of sighting of rhinos. Eastern is mostly for bird sighting. Elephant ride is available only in western and central, western is run by private people and the tickets get booked quite early. Where as central is run by government but ordinary tourist have very slim chances of getting ticket. We were lucky enough to spot 4 rhinos, few elephants and many more birds species during our jeep safari. According to the local people the best season to see a lot of animals is feb to march and december seems to be a worst time to go. Because of the huge rush the animal spotting was adversely affected. By night reached tezpur and slept early as next day the sumo to tawang starts at 5am. The sumo tickets are available at the bus stop itself, a lot of counters are available running services to dirang, bomdila and tawang.

Day 7: All the sumo services start between 5-6am and it takes 12-14 hours of time depending on the weather and snow fall. Crossing sela pass is the toughest part. People can be stuck there for days also. Coming to seats in sumo, there is numbering and they put 10 people, and seat numbers 1,2,5,6 are the most preferred. It is surely congested but quite economical and reaching tawang in one day will give a buffer time for roaming around tawang. We reached by 8pm, had an amazing experience of snowfall. Eating hot chapatis slept with the help of the heater. Do take hotels with heaters else it is impossible to handle the temperatures. We experienced -10 degrees also!!!!

Day 8: We initially planned to go to Bumla pass and Madhuri lake , we even applied for the pass with the help of the hotel staff one day prior to arrival itself. Because of heavy snow fall permits to those two places was blocked. So we did the local site seeing in the beautiful weather of tawang. These is only 3 places to see, war memorial, budha statue, and monastery.
We set to go to these places by foot, slowly enjoying the weather. If we have to take a cab, they charge somewhere between 1500-2500 to show these 3 places. If we can walk that's the best way to explore, all three things span across only 4kms.

Day 9: We waited to see if we can get the permits but the way was not opened. So we head back to Dirang stay there for the night and then go to tezpur. The way from tawang to dirang is spectacular annd since while coming we did non stop on a shared sumo, we decided to take a personal cab. The rates are again fixed, 5k from tawang to dirang and 3.5k from dirang to tezpur. Enjoyed the whole journey to dirang, by stopping at jhung falls. It was just breathtaking. And of course the selapass also. Lot of military camps would come on the way providing free chai and snacks and a nice talk!!

Day 10: Today it is about travel from dirang to tezpur. We went to nameri park on the way a small deroute, it is just a small park with boating and mostly used as family day out for all the near by places. By evening we reached tezpur and since it was 31st night our hotel stay had a party organized, we joined it and celebrated the new year embracing all the memories of the trip.

Day 11: This day was full of travel, from tezpur to guwahati by ASTC volvo bus to Guwahati paltan bazar, and then bus from paltan bazaar to airport, there is one bus for every one hour at 90rs per person. Took the flight and landed in bengaluru and then through the bengalur's traffic reached home exactly 12am of the new year day. 

If one wants to save a day one can do direct from dirang to guwahati also.

sanjay: nope

sanjay: whats this friday routine

sanjay : and whats up with your personal life? and what about the evening date?
suresh : haha, nope not on a date, went for some power yoga (wink on his face)

sanjay : so, what i heard is true indeed.
suresh : whats so hush hush about it

"everyone works to make a living, and what work you do will depend on what you have, money , education, looks, physical strength
and talent. People in beena bazar are in to this profession and there is a lot of need to it. This has been the oldest known human profession .
They have chosen it for their own reasons but it is the choice that
they made .  I am 29 and I am single and there is some physical needs for which I go there. I neither force them nor I rape them, so I do not see why i
should feel sad about it. Bloody problem with the Indian hypocrite mentalities. It is as simple as this."

(silence prevails. Slowly sanjay started speaking)

"when did u come to office today?"
"what, why?"
"just asking"
"around lunch time, probably around 1-2pm"

"how many leaves do you have in a year"
"22 days, I do not understand where this discussion is going on "

"are u recognised for the work you do"
"yes of course, i got promoted also recently"

"if you do not like the job or the timing or working culture, can you switch your job"
"who stops me from doing it"

"how many days you work in a week"
"ok, now its heights, can you pls stop asking these dumb questions and make your point"

"I do agree that according to ones skills and mental abilities one gets better life style.
But all the professions you see do enjoy certain kind of flexibility and respect and choice which unfornutaley
the ones in beena bazar do not . I totally agree that its always demand and supply that matters in an economy, since the need hence the supply.
but do you have any idea of how many people who provide these services to you are pulled in to this work without their choice.
they are traded like animals , trafficked, kidnapped, raped, sold after marriages. they can not choose when to work and with whom to w
work with, they enjoy neither benefits nor respect. Do you have any idea of the percentage of women who suffer with
a variety of STDs and the number of woman who permanently lose a chance of having babies.

(gets emotional)

"I am not against women using their sexuality to earn for their living, but not in the conditions that prevail currently.
let it be legalised, let they be provided with proper education on how to take care of themselves from all the medical conditions
that are possible keeping in mind the kind of profession they are in, let there be timings, let their be respect.
If the demand for the service is so high and so historic then let it be held high,let the woman
 choose it and let them earn on it and let their be a choice of opting out of it "


"The animal instinct in every human is as natural and pure as with any other animal but there is a reason why we are social
animals, we can not be blind eyed about the conditions of people who provide us with services.
we  need it so better respect it"

Yes, I wanna kill my daughter

DAY 1: 9/7/17
 acquiesce : accept something reluctantly but without protest

Getting tired of explaining my innocent mom that facebook is not a book,
I acquiesced to walking into library in search of the unfound:)

DAY2:
Exodus: Mass departure of people
There seems to be a rising interest in BMTC drivers to an exodus out of the city

DAY3:
Impetus: something that makes a process or activity happen or happen more quickly
 The impetus it gave me to work after my manager told that I would be getting a new lappy cant be expressed in words. 

Sizzle dazzle brownie...
