Public Toilet says

Hello public!

You may not recognise me, but I do. I see you pass before me, mostly turning the face away and clipping your nose. Although I understand this gesture, I feel bad about it. You see, I am the one available to you when you need me the most. I thereby save you from public shaming. How can this be not reciprocated? Why am I left alone to rot in disdain? It's you who move on in your life relieved, and I on the other hand, become a source of innumerable diseases. It makes me feel dirty and I kind of lose my dignity. People who use me, also do not care for my walls and they leave spitting on it. I want regular maintenance! You heard me right! Next time do demand to include me in your planning, your budget, election manifestos, fb posts, twitter debates and lastly I need a selfie with you :p... okay I will do without it... I thus plead to you to think about me and save me from this apathy. My damaged parts, blocked drains, stinking aroma  shouts that I should have a cleanliness right.


Yours sincerely,
Public Toilet

Our visit to Shanti Bhavan - Nagpur

Today we visited an old age home - Shanti Bhavan, Mother Teresa Ashram in Nagpur. The realization that there are complicate things happening around us was clearer today. The ashram has around 160 old age and disabled people living there. Ashram is doing great in terms of taking good care of the people. There are people in Nagpur who are visiting to the Ashram in most Sundays just to take care of the people for an hour or two, as for example I met a surgeon today, he told me that he visits here every Sunday to take care of the cleanliness of the oldies. My Experience Today? It was good. There are innocent people who are abandoned from their family. This ashram is taking care of them. I felt real proud in been engaged with such an NGO group and to those who are responsible for my upbringing that I am able to take decision & spend my time here, here with these people. At first I was just standing outside of the ashram, I had little idea of what is inside, what is the environ

Bring the kid or not

-
My friend who just gone through a full pregnancy and delivered a cute kid, once quoted me a question, “Rohit, why should I bring a child into this sad & cruel world. I am scared and feel responsible for the kid”. I had no answer then and more so even today I am still in the vague. My god, pregnancy is tough for some people. It’s not what it is we may think it is, ok, us bachelors. As a growing up kid in my little joint family, I have seen my aunts going through the processes. But, I was a kid then. I never knew that there are hormones which keep playing with your mind & your body. You could end up vomiting all day and feel crazy on your stomach. Depending on your case, you may have to keep visiting the doctors to get the regular healthy consultations. Adding some sugar, for some woman this is a simple process as well. There are those who remain unaware that they are 4 months pregnant! Anyway. I was passing by a regular street and I saw a young aged woman. She was pregnant and s

Ride and the Kalsubai Trek

It was a two-day trip from my stay at Mumbai. I drove in the evening a previous day. Having have rode my meteor a good 2500Kms, It was comparatively adjusting to ride 160km from Mumbai to the area near the peak. I have felt that if the trip is pre-planned, it helps you enrich your experience. There is so much more that we can explore and that does help us save time, energy and some money as well. I write with the same intention. Material carrying is important. Wearing bike accessories is essential for safety. This time while driving in the late hours, I felt that I should also carry items like pepper spray, a mat & torch. I carried a battery back up this time which made me feel safer, so to say. To remain ensured during the trip helps to enjoy better. I was calm due to it. I had put Kalsubai peak in the google map. Somehow I was going in the wrong direction. I had planned that I would find some tenting service nearby and sleep inside it during the night. I got to know t
