I have friends in all parties. My friends have spread all over the political spectrum, so I have good friends in the DMK,AIADMK, BJP, Congress, and the other political parties too. They call on me as friend viz versa I used to call on them.

I like to stress on one thing, if you constantly keep looking back and harping on what goes on in the past, we cannot go on, can't do any public service. So if insisted on what transpired in the past, and dwell on issues that happened in the past, we will stagnate. It will preventing from moving forward. As far as I am concerned, I live in the present and look towards the future.

Great public person come and go, but what remains behind are some unforgettable impressions and heroic deeds, which transform the society for good.

FRANKLY SPEAKING/I will never miss to say about my children,in-laws,grand sons,parents of in-laws.


FRANKLY SPEAKING

I take life as it comes. I never planned a career for myself. I never had any preparation for a career. I never thought I could be like today. Somehow I did, and I became familiar among the people particularly Choolaimedu residents. I've no personal ambitions, I go where my destiny takes me.

If  I have grown, it is because of the grace of God, and my faith in my mission. The journey has been long. I don’t see an end to it, simply because my work is never ending. What  I have done is very little. There is much more to do. I will never miss to say about my children,in-laws,grand sons,parents of in-laws. Take a look!

Daughter Smt.Pavithra Prasidh ,Son–in-law Sri.Prasidh Ramabadran
Son Sri.K.Venkatesh ,Daughter–in-law Smt.Shravanthy
Grandson-Chi.Adithya Venkatesh
Grand Daughter -Sow.Adithi Venkatesh
Grandson-Chi.Ayan Prasidh
Grand Daughter -Sow.Athulya Prasidh
And Parents of in-laws- Smt.Mythili Ramabadran.
Smt.Prabha Sarathy,Sri.K.R.P.Sarathy

Finding the life partner is not very easy, however by the grace of God,
Life partner well matched for my Daughter and Son. Our family is like the branches of the tree. We may grow in different directions ,yet root remains one.

Son-in-law, Sri.Prasidh Ramabadran, Daughter–in-law Smt.Shravanthy are perfect addition to our family. We attached much with them.

My daughter found her life partner Sri.Prasidh Ramabadran, my son found a brother in him and we found a second son in him.

Similarly my son found his life partner Smt.Shravanthy, my daughter found a sister in her and we found a second daughter in her .

Sri.Prasidh Ramabadran and Smt.Shravanthy were not born into our family as a son and daughter, both become more than a son and daughter  for us.

Karma finally set everything in our life right by giving us a good son-in-law and good Daughter–in-law. Family is a top priority for them. They  focuses their time or attention on the family.

Grandsons-Chi.Adithya Venkatesh and Chi.Ayan Prasidh are gifts of God. When  I pick Adithya / Ayan in my hands I forget everything and feel I am the world’s luckiest person. Adithya and Ayan look very cute and their actions are even cuter. Spending time with my grandsons is more important than spending money on grandsons.
.
I am / We are so lucky to have Smt.Mythili Ramabadran, / Smt.Prabha Sarathy, and Sri.K.R.P.Sarathy  as good parents of in laws.

Roni (German Spitz ) is my Best Companion

              Roni (German Spitz ) is my Best Companion


Yes,Roni (German Spitz ) is my Best Companion

The Roni  is the only creature on earth that loves me more than she loves herself. Roni  is not my whole life, but Roni makes my  life whole. Today, German Spitz  have become a very popular choice as family pets and companions thanks to their charming looks affectionate,and kind nature.

Roni  has joined with our family in the middle of May 2011( aged around one and half years).Since then my/our life has changed a lot in positive direction and good things are happening. God's gift. We had 5 Plus good years together and she is the best (dog) friend/family member . 

I just love to be with Roni,. Smart, loving, funny and just a really good (dog). I think my favorite part is that she sleep beneath my cot  every night. Life without (Roni) dog would be incomplete.....Roni got pregnant during her Second or Third heat period and at the time ,she is  only about 2 years old. She has started to give birth on 63rd day of pregnancy. On 29th August 2012 ( Onam Day ) around 8:30 A.M. (within  two hours) she had 5 pups.(Two Male and Three Female).I gave the pups to the known people without getting anything..Her Vet. Physician Dr.AAR.Srinivasan gives periodical Vaccination once in a year.

Initially, we are providing some food after our meals. Later I thought I should share a part of the food I take. After wards I came to the conclusion that I should keep some thing first for Roni and take my food, which is followed now.

Roni is the kindest, most loving dog towards every other dog and is so gentle whilst playing with her. It is an amazing breed. . A dog is a man’s best friend. This really is true and one reason that you might want to adopt a dog is to be able to have a companion that will love you unconditionally, which is all that a dog in need wants to do. Pet therapy is becoming very popular these days in the USA, especially for help in diseases like Alzheimer's.

The temperament of the Roni is a hallmark of the breed and is described in the standard as "kindly, friendly and confident". Roni is not "one man dog" and it is  equally amicable with strangers and to those familiar to them.

My personal Experience has shown that merely petting a dog helps to control blood pressure. Whether you believe it or not, Roni is in a great way to improve my mood and temperament. Roni gives me unconditional love and is always faithful. It's true because flow of love towards caretaker by pets are manifested thousand times more than human.

Myself  take my pet Roni for walks, so it will mainly get the benefits of physical exercise and sociable exchanges with other friends/pet owners. Roni makes me to  walk on the  road is more enjoyable. Other activities related to Roni like feeding, bathing,and playing  are also good ways to exercise.

 Definitely while I take up my morning walk through the streets I come across at least a dozen dogs a day. Initially the dogs used to come near and bark and make fear of biting. But as the day went I found they have smelled me, not even wake up from their location.

 Every dog has his day, unless she loses her tail, The Roni is a nicer than the average person .For Roni, the attachment she feel towards me and my  family members  are fundamental to her well-being. Kids who grow up with pets at home are always respectful towards living things.

In general ,dogs can either serve as watchdogs or guard dogs. A watch dogs job is to bark and raise the alarm when a stranger enters our house. Many small dog breeds make great watch dogs. Whereas a guard dog's job is to look intimidating and protect his family if the situation arises.

I was thinking of writing on stray dog feeding. Incidentally I came across some interesting information today about cows and crows and interlinking them to ancestors. I thought of sharing them also with you. While every body write of serious topics I thought some light reading material would not be bad. Now ,I just tried to trace mythology of crow and dog today. It was astonishing to me to read that not only crows and cow but dogs too represent ancestors.

Hindus in Nepal worship dog to guard their house from destruction, However, Hindus in India generally do not worship dogs. Lord Bhairava, the guardian deity to the abode of Lord Shiva, is usually depicted with a dog or riding a dog as his vahana. Feeding and taking care of dogs is believed to be a way of showing our devotion to Lord Bhairava

In Hindu mythology too, dogs have a special place. In religious ceremonies, dogs are considered to be a link between us and our ancestors. Special offerings are given to dogs, along with the cow and the crow, so as to remember and invoke the blessings of our ancestors.

I hope it opens the eyes of so many people who refuse to open their minds and hearts to having a pet and taking care of it.  I wish this world had more dogs and less humans. The world would have been a better, kinder and more compassionate place. I conclude with these words.
