Krishnaa..

Outside the window..

Here is the hypothetical take on what if Draupadi , known as Panchali would be thinking through while she looks the through the window..

Situation: Panchali, after the mahabharat, the kurukshetra war ,sitting in her room and looking outside window..


The exhausted days are not done yet.. In war, my enemies died.. along with them , I lost my five sons, my brothers and my father. From my childhood , I always wondered what I am capable of ? I have had the curioisty what my destiny would be..What is my birth reason could be..?  

Do I need to celebrate that I will be remembered for this war?, Krishna...!

My birth, was not welcomed by my father. I was add-in with my brother but I was told that I born to make history. In childhood, I yearned for father’s love. But he never had time for me. I could not sleep over easily on the discrimination of my father's love between my brother and myself. I had a tragic marriage , even though it was Suyamvar, I was destined to marry Arjun, one of the Pandavas. But without my concern,  I had been wife of all others brothers too.  Worst scenario than Sita! My matrimonial house was not a palace. I had to go through a poverty which I was not habituated. I learnt through and slept over without questioning .

After a major turning events, I moved in and made my own palace that could bring envy n wrath for our enemies. Live was all fine until my husband sold my feminity over a dice game. There I witnessed, my husbands loved honor, reputation, pride more than me!

I could not hate them as I need them to complete my revengeace. Hence, I choosen to travel with my husbands so that time will not soothen the vengenance. I remained them at every possible situation. After a long wait..the war!  The shaken the complete history! Now I do not feel peace. 

Why I am chosen, Krishna…… ?

The slient tears rolled down to her cheeks by the breeze..

A Telescopic view of API

  From a Business Analyst- Telescopic View to API The development/technical folks tell you a few words all day and the words register, echo… There is more than one way to deal with that Ignore the echo and start using the words like a pro; beyond that word, you would not have any idea about it. Explore the basics to get familiarised with the words and make yourself comfortable. Third, deep dive into the world and become a techie!! Do not like those words, it annoys you, it is time to change your role.. :-) I belong to the second category. This blog is for the first /second set of people likes to get comfortable with the techie words.! One of the highly used words in my previous organization and here, in my 2nd project is APIs/webservices.

All gold..

 As part of my job, I get to embrace a lot of gold chains/bracelets/rings /earrings, and being a woman, the temptations are real, to wear and own it. These desires grew stronger day by day, which landed me in a spot through the receptionist, where there is no camera coverage and with a deal that I have to allow her to wear it for a selfie. Well, one is taken care of, the wanting to possess at least a few did not allow me to sleep. I could not afford to buy any one of them because our peanut salary gets invisible into the endless loan, education fees, and all the bills. I did not want to become a gold thief, hence for now decided to sleep over the thought.  Days flew fast as the gossip on my Instagram jewel post. Few thought I won the lottery and interestingly, few assumed that my husband is getting black money in his IT job. Whatever the gossips where, but it made me feel like a celebrity in my neighborhood.  All the unknown faces become known. I got to choose the vegetab...

Impartiality.

  Today  Mythili, “get ready soon. We are late!”. “Why in such a hurry? We have good 30 mins to catch the bus. To be specific, I do not want to wait at the bus stand. The bus stand, that has taken my son’s life. I know something happened there and no one wants to share with me anything”. She sits on the sofa, not wanting to cry but still her tears reveal the pain that she is going through for the last 5 years. Guilty and feeling helpless! Sigh! I am hoping from today the days are going to be better. Suddenly the wreath falls from his photo, acknowledging my hope. His smile and that innocence,  at least once, I want to ask him,  "Am I not a good father?" 5 days back: After my son killed himself, Mythili lost herself in a different world. She stopped sleeping and eating. During those days, my situation was the same as hers. I could not do anything much to take care of her. Once I moved to the office, I managed to divert the pain, but she locked herself in a room and wa...
