Daughter Mother Relationship

The easiest thing in the world is to hurt your mom and the hardest thing in the universe is saying sorry to your mom. There is no doubt; Mom is the only soul who loves us from the bottom of the heart without any expectation. But, we always take her for granted. We always blame them for most of our problems. We blame our mom for not gifting a wonderful past. We blame our mom for not offering the compassion we expected. We hate our mom for getting angry and yelling at us for our mistakes. We hate our mom, when she gives opinion,when she sets rules and controls our life.  
"Throw her out of the house, scold her and show all your hostility, she will never fail to love you back."
Yesterday, I had a bad argument with my mom that led to harsh exchange of words. Pretty sad, Isn’t it? Must say, my mom was quite. But she was extremely stressful and upset for not understanding her love.
If I look back, she offered me the best food, top class clothes(even though she had none), money when I needed. Above all a lap that I needed when I was down.
But, being a cruel human being I just saw her flaws. I just got angry at her for not offering me what I want. I got angry for not letting me to do what I wish. I got angry at her for not encouraging me in my achievements. I was not matured enough to understand that she just lacked basic encouraging skills. I was not ready to accept the fact, "what ever it is, she loves me at the end." 
Sound familiar isn’t it? We always look at the things that our mom does not offer us. Though I knew she offered me all the basic necessities of life like education, wonderful shelter, love, nursing, food, I just looked at what she did not give. It’s the human nature.  If you often get mad at your mom/dad, it’s time to pause and read below. If your mom is hurting you, remember she is not doing it willingly. She too has stressful days, demanding boss, jealously relatives that she needs to dealt with.Not letting you to fulfill her wish? Putting so much of rules? setting up lot of expectations and annoying you? Demanding you to wake up early and do house works? That’s how she was raised by her parents. She was preached by her mother that a women child needs to be fostered that way. She is trying her best to show all the love under the earth with the knowledge and experience she has. They are human like us, which meant that they too have flaws and will make mistake. Just count how many mistakes we commit in a day.See that little innocent child within her. After the age 50, parents are dependent child. Expecting just love and time from her child.  Learn to accept our parents as they are. It will open new door of happiness.If she sets an expectation which in turn annoy you, getting angry is not the solution. Just explain her with facts and confidence. She will be happy to accept it. A mother always expect her daughter to be a best friend. Lets try our best not to hurt our mom.

Real Togetherness

The “Kissanpur Discovering Real Togetherness” ad, an incident that happened recently flashed my mind.It was my dream to start an agriculture farm at my home. Unfortunately, due to time and work pressure, I could not take any good step towards it. Then, there came up a turning point thought. I decided to plant at least one sapling for my birthday. I planted a Bamboo sapling for my birthday. With proper maintenance, the bamboo tree is now healthy and that one sapling was now divided into seven to eight trees now. My family members were inspired by this event.Every year, for my parent’s and nephew’s birthday I never miss to gift something. For my parents, it would be some dress materials. Whereas for my nephew it would be toys.
This year I wanted to try something new that would bring my parents as well as my nephew and my sister family together. What would be the best gift?Of course, I could gift them some travel package. But again it was bundled with lot of challenges like holidays, travel planning, and huge budget and so on. Then finally while watering my bamboo tree, a good thought struck my mind. I decided to plant a sapling for everyone’s birthday on a specific date.On saying this news, everybody was as motivated. My sister son, who was just seven years old jumped in joy on hearing this news."Am I going to plant a sapling? That sounds cool" He roared out in joy."I wish to plant a tree that gives tasty fruits" replied my sister.“I will choose Neem. It has so many good medical benefits” replied my mom.Then we bought 7 saplings. Neem for my mother, Banyan for me, Mango sapling and Pongamia sapling for my 2 nephew, ficus for my brother in law. My dad picked mango tree and my sister chose Jack fruit sapling as she stressed on fruit trees.




Right from discussing the place and selecting the trees to plant we had a lot of fun and good time. My nephew and I were new to planting. Hence, my dad helped us step by step for planting. Right from digging the soil, putting fertilizer, placing the sapling, we had fun.While digging the soil, few of my neighbors saw, got excited and joined us. We took a print of our names and hanged it to the sapling to encourage other people.
Now, we have a tough competition. Yes, we have a tough competition on whose tree will grow faster. Every day, we have lots of fun while watering it. When the sun comes, we rush to build a roof for the sapling to protect it from the over heat. This is new kind of joy that I never experience in my life. My nephew says the same. My parents too feel the same. My sister and brother-in-law share the same.


This incident thought me joy is 'Real Togetherness'

5 reasons for Google Nexus 5X to be a Champ

Here are the top 5 reasons for LG Google Nexus 5X to be a champ:


2 GB RAM:
LG Google Nexus 5X comes with 2 GB RAM. None of the other standard phone offers 2 GM of RAM in this price range. RAM helps in running the operating system which in turn helps in processing the input and output faster. In Layman’s terms, it helps in running all the applications like What’s app, phone Calls, calculator and games. The higher the RAM, the faster the response. Still now, I was using a mobile with 512 RAM, where the response time is dead slow. I have to wait minimum 3 seconds in order to access my mobile and to get the response time.

I am impressed since Nexus 5X comes with 2 GB RAM. Furthermore, the touch comes with capacitive and hence the touch sensitivity will be so cool.

Rear Camera - 12.3-megapixel and Front Camera -  5-megapixal.
You may say, most of the camera offers that pixel. Then what's special in that? Even, that was the first thought that ran across my mind. But when my eyes scanned secondary Camera with 5 MP, I was totally dumbstruck. When I stay away from my family and friends, this 5 MP Front camera helps a lot in having Skype calls with very good clarity. I patter my back, when my friend who connects from laptop and says, "Hey, your video clarity is too good."

2700mAh Battery
8 out of my 10 friends always carries power bank with them. Its a 3rd hand for them these days. I really hate to carry power bank and thus LG Nexus will become my darling and is a champ when the battery is made up of 2700mAh battery. I guess, the battery would come for more than 3 days if it is used only for calls and message.

Wi-Fi standards supported -802.11 a/ b/ g/ n/ ac
Everybody would look for a Battery quality, Camera pixel, price, RAM while buying a new phone. They hardly look at the specifications of wifi  If I have been a normal person, I would check whether the phone has 3G connectivity and not about the HSDPA.
Since I work in telecom domain I know the purpose and the job of 802.11 a/ b/ g/ n/ ac network access. This helps in the getting the higher internet connectivity for other mobiles.

Nexus 5X ships with 90 days of Google Play Music for free. 

This is another additional point for me to fall in love with LG Google Nexus 5X. Yes, This phone offers an additional feature of 90 days free goggle play music absolutely free.

LG Nexus 5X The all around Champ

Gone are the days where people wait for new Iphone release and upgrade to the latest. With the Google Nexus smartphone, people have become addicted to the Nexus family. As per my knowledge, it could be because of the below 2 reasons.
Price is affordable and it does not put us in loss during the upgrade.There is a drastic variation in between the older and newer release of LG Google Nexus. 
Still my love for LG Google Nexus 5 has not yet reduced, but after hearing the news and features about LG Google Nexus 5X, I could not stop myself from falling in love with LG Google Nexus 5X.
Internet access, touchscreen, crazy application, advanced operating system, Video calling, and good MP camers's are the features any smart phone would provide. LG Google Nexus 5X is yet another smart phone that would provide the same feature. If that was your assertion, hold on and please read the below.

Below are the 3 reasons to reinvent my smart phone experience with Google Nexus 5X:D

Design:
How do you feel when you look at the Luxurious BWM, Audi, Rolls-Royce cars? An Elegant, stylish and classic look. Isn’t it? The same feel I got when I looked at the pictures of LG Google Nexus 5X

Camera: Of course, I am a Selfie Girl:
Selfies and Panoramic are outdated. Panoramic selfies is the latest trend. This phone comes with 5-megapixel front-facing camera. This camear takes splendid photos under any light. What’s next? Upload the pictures in Facebook!? Again it’s old-fashioned.

Battery:
Good battery backups, a week-up back up are the old news. Quick Charging is the latest news. Yes, no more taking nap while charging is required. Because LG NEXUS 5X  comes with reversible USB Type-C charger. It charges at lightning speed!!! thundering... sorry lightening speed. I am stressing on the word lightening, since the light travels faster than sound. Hence its charges

Baggout - Fashion Shopping App

Baggout - Fashion Shopping AppHow nice it would be, if a person or stylish keeps on recommending us the clothes and accessories based on our body type, skin color and style? Seems tempting and interesting right? But in reality it’s not possible to keep a personal stylist due to the cost they quote. But Baggout does that for us. Recently, Baggout has come up with a user-friendly fashion Shopping App. Just by answering three question, you get a personalized recommendations daily.

I often hear complaints from my friends that Shopping apps occupy most of their mobile memory. Most of my friends have Flipkart, snap deal, craftsvilla, amazon apps.. on their mobile. How good it would be if all the mobiles apps are at one place? It not only save the phone memory but it saves the time as well.

My mobile has just 512 RAM and when I installed Flipkart app on my mobile, my mobile started to hang often. I could not immediately migrate to 1 GB RAM due to the budget constraints. I had no other option than uninstalling the app. When I came across baggout where it provides all favorite apps in one place, I was little concern about occupying my memory.  To my surprise, after the baggout app install, my phone did not hang at all. it works smooth like butter. 50 Rupees got credited to my account.

Yes, with every new install you get 50 rupees cash back. Below are the few things I like about the Baggout Shopping App


 Exclusive Deals: Sometimes, due to our busy schedule we will not be available in front of system for 24*7. Some exclusive deals launched by paytm or flipkart will be available only for 2 hours or so. Sometime, as soon as the deal is on, the product will be sold out immediately. This app would rectify all those concerns.
User friendly: The success of app depends on how user-friendly the app is. No wonder, the Baggout app is very user-friendly.
Good Reviews: It has a good rating of 4.5

Baggout - Fashion Shopping App - It’s an exclusive shopping destination!!!

A Letter by heart

From,

Heart ♥ ,
Right side,
Mediastinum,
Chest.

To,

The person whom I care the most.

Dear Deepika. How are you? Like every mother who cares and knows her child, I am mindful about you. At Present, you are happy. Sleeping till 10 in the morning, tasting all relishing foods like Pizza, burger, ice-cream, Paani Poori..etc. But, I must say
You are at risk.!No, I am at risk.!!Wait..!!!Its not you or I, WE are at RISK!!! I can’t function without you and vice-versa.

I envy on body. Because, you are taking good care of it and absolutely ignoring me.

You are spending lot of time in applying face pack to get glow and spend lots of money in beauty parlor. Can I request you to take care of me? I am not asking you to cut down your beauty expense. But kindly invest some money for health as well. Grab a gym membership and do some work out. In turn, I will take care of your body as well. Please priorities spending on your health and fitness and not beauty.

Inner Beauty is a must to stay healthy. Inner beauty, I am mentioning here is is ME i.e HEART!!




Kindness makes your heart beauty.

Protection makes your hearth healthy.

So, kindly protect mE!!!

When stressed out, don’t sit to watch movie or serials. I know you have a pet at home, go play with it. Take the pet for walk.   Caressing the dog reduces stress and relax the mind.

When you are a child, your dad induced you to save money. He took you to the bank when he deposit money and thought you the value of money. Did you over learned that concept? And, that the reasons you depositing fat in your body bank?

Facebook and what’s app is not the necessary apps that needs to be installed on your smart phone. There are lots of apps designed for improving me. The app allows you to monitor your workouts and daily progress.. I am sure those apps give your enough motivation during the tough times.

The good part about me and the major risk heart disease are it does not develop in a day. It develops slowly over several years giving few symptoms. Example, no one will become fat in a day. We do give symptoms like dress getting tighter, but you ignored saying the dress shrink.

Like everyone, I know you wish to stay young and healthy. So, please take letter seriously and protect your heart.



I suggest you to take the Weight-Heart Test at www.saffolalife.com - (a #ProtectHerHeart initiative) and take the necessary step towards a healthy heart with Saffolalife

With Love,
Your Heart. ♥ ♥ ♥
