In the new year

Monday, January 03, 2011: Too chilly a weather it is for the last few days looking like things are freezing all around. Chilly winds on date remind me of the weather as it stood just a year back when people in SBISA particularly led by Vijai Awasthi and Anil Jauhary celebrated the day as my Platinum Jubilee based on official record of my birth day i.e. 2nd January’1935 at Farrukhabad. Instead of 2nd January it was observed on the 3rd January to suit the convenience of the organizers and the participants. Despite very bad a weather the event was attended by the people at a very large scale. I feel alright healh wise in the new year. There are ofcourse certain instances in a way striking a note on my advancing age. This morning while heading towards dining table to pick up the news papers of date I felt I was badly oblivious of my surroundings and didn’t at all notice that Disha, my daughter inlaw, was sitting there going through the news papers. This I could notice only when I got too close to her. A tendency of getting unduly suspicious on health points as I have I took it as some thing like a derailed mind. I quite know that it was the case of usual mental slips very common in an individual’s routine but some where there is a lurking thought as if the slip was an outcome of my advancing age which may not be a factual state of my health conditions and in no way it carries any alarming signal relating to my age as it stands on date.

Ring in the new

Friday, December 31, 2010: It’s the year end now like it always happens –the year like any thing in the universe comes like a child and passes off like an old person as if it is just a routine ritual in the hands of the Nature. Nothing stays till eternity. On an average the year 2010 has been a better one except that I had to continuously offer resistance against some ailment or the other. The reason as to why I develop like my whole body system sinking with too vague an uneasiness quite often continues to be undiagnosed. My doctors only failed on that count. This ailment struck me like a bout of attack day before when I was on my usual walk in Shriram Park when it became a horrible task for me to drive home back and this was a period I had to count moment by moment. My will power helped me to some how reach Tapovan back. I had no option but to resort to ‘Placida’, a tablet I had stopped taking nearly a week back as an experiment. I resumed it since yesterday morning and after the second doze of it today I find some improvement now but, most intriguing a question as it is, how long I can depend on it. It may after all have its own side effects. My doctor for the purpose Vishal Chopra says in his usual style of vagueness that I can take it safely on a regular footing. Bachhey continues to suffer from low blood pressure and for this too the doctors are helpless to suggest any effective remedy. I continue feeling badly disturbed. On financial stringency on domestic needs I failed to secure any alternative remedy on this count this year too but could manage the needs some how. Yoga has helped me a lot to keep my other physical faculties intact till now enabling me to still look forward with confidence to a better tomorrow. I don’t know how and to what extent this optimism of mine will hold good in the new year starting from the mid night today.
