Happiness for rupees 10 ;)

He walked into the shop a little confused.

He: Perk kitne ka hain?
Shopkeeper: 10 Rs.
He: Kitkat?
Shopkeeper: 12 Rs
He: 5 ka kya kya hain? [Anything for 5 Rs?]
Shopkeeper displays him various options but he is not impressed.
He: Pepsi cola kitne ka hain?
Shopkeeper: 2 Rs.
He [with a glad smile]: 4 pepsicola dena aur 4 eclairs.
Saying so he removed a 10 rupee note and gave it to the shopkeeper. Just as he got out of the shop, 4 ultra enthusiastic kids jumped on him and finished the treat he had just bought for them.

It was just amazing to see 10 rupees giving so much pleasure to so many people.

Power of faith

It was a Saturday.She was sitting next to the Hanuman temple and selling oil in small glasses. Hordes of devotees came to her, picked the oil glass and went inside the temple to pour the oil on the deity. The payed for it and returned the glass only on their way back. There were approximately 200 devotees at any given instance, wanting to please the lord with the oil offering. She sat quietly, accepting the money; murmuring only occasionally when someone asked her the price of the oil filled glass. As I went to pay her I couldn't help but ask if people really paid her and returned her glasses. Her reply, "Do saal se yahan baithi hoon aaj tak kabhi gadbad nahin hui. Koi agar bhool gaya toh agle shaniwaar aakar paise de jaata hain" (Since past 2 years I have never had a problem with my accounts. Even if someone forgets on a Saturday they come back and pay the next time they come)

Ain't it cool in the era of 2G scams? Tightens your belief that everything is not yet wrong................

2011 World Cup is ours!!!

Not a cricket freak at all but no one can stop me from savouring the moment. India is the new cricket world champion..............The icing on the cake, as almost all the players said, we won the cup with Sachin Tendulkar in the team! He definitely deserves it, as do the billion other Indians who eat, sleep and live cricket.

Congratulations!!!!!! Let the party begin!!!!!!!
