THE MASTER STROKE

Decision making is the most difficult thing for all of us,we would rather postpone taking a decision than to decide, fearing what if our decision turns out into a fiasco,But at times we find that decisions,take different twists and turns and end up,in good things without our knowledge giving double benefits,and we casually cite that we could hit two birds with a single arrow or brought down two mangoes in a single stone throw.
Happenings in the recent days are making me wonder what is that wonderful spell that has fallen on the people here,there seems to be a general improvement in the level of self disciple,in our outlook in dealing with people,our level of interaction and our bonding with our dear ones.
It has been days, weeks and months that I had a necessity to yell or shout at my kids,Life was so difficult for me to handle them,my energy and longevity getting reduced,with the dawn Beginning with my repeated attempts of waking them up,prompting them to go and get ready for
school/college,prompting them time and again reminding them that they have to study,complete their home work,do their project.Now for some time I find them being more responsive and above all not even fussy/ nagging me with what ever I pack for them as lunch or provide for break fast.

Me who was a  lazy person ,who always wanted to snug for those extra snooze in ten mornings,and be quite lethargic,have become more active i don't want to waste even small quantum of time i just line up my work prioritize one after the other,always having a look at the clock,Might be Robin Sharma's book,On Mega living ,should have brought in this transformation,cause I find lot of time to read and spend my time improving my knowledge,rather than being glued to the Television or computer.

I find,people around me,my nieghbours having nice chit chats,discussing their meal,prepared,exchanging receipes for venthaiya kozambu and paniyaram,trying out different hair do"s for thier girls,practicing rangoli and now and then discussing the patetic upkeep of the locality,Dicuss about politics now and then and i am really surprised to see them observe nature and their surroundings.

Many ladies have started getting the much needed attention,from their husbands and have been receiving small small gifts,reminding them of their lost intimacy and good times,well this is happening as a reciprocation,for the care that has been extended to them in the recent days,"AS THE SAYING GOES,"the best way to enter a mans heart is thro his mouth"
They are pamppred with tasty,hot,and fresh     servings of food ,the wife who was earlier saying,that,Ihave kept the food on the dining table,help your self,to their family members are seen,sitting by their sides and narrating small.small sweet nothings and the kids are really enjoying their family togetherness.

Family outings,a day, every month has now become,a regular affair,gone are those days when kids had to keep nagging their parents,seamlessly to take them out,but now a special budget,is set aside for meeting this expense,and its never seen as a burden at all.
Its so enthralling to see our culture returning back,young mothers are seen out feeding their kids,showing the glimpses of moon,or a crow or dog(at times bandigoots too).And its really,really good to see our kids having got themselves adapted to this change,instead of throwing their whim's
saying unless they see their favourite add,they will not take their feeds.

Children are elders are growing in a more natural way they understand,nature,science and many difficult subjects very easily ,,because they have merged with nature and no more couch potatoes glued to their favourite show or on the computer games in fact they have taken to some physical activity,and the extra fab and mid section fat is getting reduced(note that men have started admiring their wife's,seeing those curves restoring back)
Men  and women are also returning back home as early as possible,from work not wasting their time outside fearing,that every day ordeal of dealing with the complaints and grievances that awaits to be sorted out between their mother,wife and in laws,and an unusual calm and serenity exists,mother in laws are really finding the going tough,for their idea bank is not getting replenished with new,methods of seeking vengeance on their daughter in law or vice versa
Well don't you now agree that a pleasant spell has been cast on our people.and who ever it is they need a lot of appreciation,well its non other than the EB(ELECTRICITY BOARD)for their benevolent gesture of imposing such huge,erratic and sporadic current cuts,which has put every one right from kids  to the old in their slot sand made them to reconcile   with duties and responsibilities and the precious of losing even a minute power supply is there,Given people a lot of free time,since their TV,viewing time has now been drastically cut,there by their stress level which was inflated with daily soaps,gathering at least 10,different plots of abusing their in laws has come to a reduction.A maintenance shut down,on a day every month invariably make you to fled your homes,cause we cannot deny the fact that there is no life without power(i meant electricity).
People working in office,Establishments,schools,hospitals and what not would like to put in their  their maximun efforts during the periods of Power availability,in fact its seen that 8 hours of job is now done in four hours.
I know what a dreadful Decision it would have been,when the only respite available to EB to meet this power crisis,would be to resort to,such erratic and long power cuts,but they never knew that that action could lead to such wonderful,grooming of the people.At times when its really hard to discipline a single individual,just see how they have brought all of us our senses,
Often we have head people quoting as Master stroke,but in real terms this is the best master stroke in the present days,which has indirectly brought in lots of disciple,belongingness ,and goodness amongst people."A boon in the guise of a bane"
