Only for Kalam

As the election to Presidential post to be held in June 2007 approaches and pressures has built up favoring Kalam! The President of India is selected by less than 7,000 member of Parliament through votes, but already 70,000 email have voted in President’s website that A.P.J. Abdul Kalam should not say no to second term as 12th President of India. Not only the ordinary citizens, the lawyers, administrators, scientist, young politician…. are standing for the Kalam who speaks from the poor, positivity, secularism, culture, music, dreams of happy and peaceful India.

As before only little of them know about Kalam as a scientist, teacher, who reach big posts in the government departments and the brain behind the India’s first Satellite Launch Vehicle and defense Missiles. But as president he has become the role model for many youths and touched the hearts of a large number of people. His Mission on India 2020, which has, plans to develop India into a knowledge superpower and into a developed nation by the year 2020 had spoke his interest on India. His brave and bond actions on speeding in the sky on Sukhoi bomber and going deep in to the sea in a submarine, visiting the world’s highest war field Siachen glacier and refusing to sign on the Office of Profit thinking it was patently unfair and against the spirit of the constitution.
Above all his tremendous rapport he has built with both the haves and haven’t of society. He reaches out to the poorest, the richest and fast expanding middle class to take care of public interest. Issued a 3lakh cheque from his own account recently for his coach full relatives who visited some places in north India and gifting to orphans on national festival days. His invite of constables, special persons and award winning panchayat presidents to rub shoulders with the mighty on Nation days; providing mission models for states which can be implemented in a bipartisan manner and improve educational facilities to make India a knowledge superpower. The highlights of setting up the Africa Satellite to provide distance education to 50 African countries and his replay to the US and European scientists in October to a question of what’s India’s core competence? (As he said: Finding the leadership to handle a billion democratic citizens with a multi religious, multicultural and multilingual mix). Has felt us never before seen such outpouring public support for a president.
We have much to tell about him to give a second chance as president. He tries to meet as much people as possible during his working day, amide his hectic schedule on flying, and touring, kalam has time for the finer sensibilities of life. When we all are thinking about his second term, president said recently that he would love to go back to teaching after his work as president is over. Here I like to express my thought on this, as a president there is no doubt he is the Best and best forever!! Did he come as president again or not we get only positive from him. If he becomes president we (students & youth) can’t share much of his good thought and intelligence, as he will be busy with the job of president, with little time to spent with us. Without any political or party background, our India will be very safe in his hand for another 5 years if we give him chance for President. As a teacher he can create many intelligent and positive thinking students for our future India to work towards the developed India. Its positive or negative if it spread through students it would reach soon, all our parents are listen to their children, grandparents listen to their grandchildren and every one in the family sure listening to their children what they speak, so it catches to everyone. Post can be anything, but his thoughts are same, its India!!

Temples and Enjoyable outing

On a cool rainy day with my bro (who rarely come out with us), dad, mom and uncle visited on a plan to Tirupporur Murugan Temple. Everyone loves rain, I enjoy more rain in driving, and it’s childish to keep the hands out on the rain. The road towards the temple till kelambakam the was fed up, its full of contour and water on many places, it was lesson for not to use this road till it properly put. If we cross the city to country side, its pleasure to see bulls, goats crossing the roads and playing, but it’s a big disturbance for vehicles and these livings have chance to face bloody by the speed vehicles. Have been inside the Murugan temple some years back, but now as usual settled in the car and watching the temple tank which was filled with water, between taking snaps of tank, goats, tower of temple.

Peacock inside the Temple (took my mom)

I have memories of the silent surrounds of the temple with much spacious to play, run and rarely see peacock. Sitting on the steps and dropping the fried grain on the water to the hunger fishes, and the tank has a history of never faces drought.

After worshiping lord Muruga, we turned on East Cost Road towards Mahabalipuram; on the way the sky becomes very dark and started to pore heavy rain. Some on the road’s arriving to a hide places, and the bulls keep on standing in the center of the road without feeling the rain. Went to one of grandma’s traditional family deity Karukkathamman temple in mahabalipuran, which was on construction, as we arrive the temple, was closed because of untimely. In my childhood days I have spent much of times in the surrounding places of this temple, when ever I visit our relative’s house. It has a pond and green trees to make the afternoon cool. Many times went to the pond with cousins to bathe, as I am fear of water, will not drop my feet’s inside the pond because of an warning of mire, but my cousins bravely jumps from the rock to pond. There was also a small hill near the Temple, every time we used to climb few feet on the hill to worship Ganesh, which was carved on the rock in Pallava times. On the rocks we can find some red stain for few meters, and my grandma used to tell me a story for the red stain, that the God in the temple killed the giant person who always disturb the village people and pulled him through this rocks and bury under the temple. After spending some time we had a wonderful drive on the ECR.

Again on last Friday (Dec 1) I got another change to go a drive on ECR to attend a new home function in my grandma’s village Thiruvadanthai near Kovalam, with cousins. This village has one of my sweetest days I have spent in my life; it has beautiful lake, ponds and lovely relatives. Now our relatives are shifting from there old tiles house to concrete roof house, which has much designed works on windows, doors, roof…. It was surprise to see an old type of house in concrete roof in this modern construction. Took the car with bro and cousins, rounded the village visited the pond, temple where we were roaming with Palm fruit vehicles. They serve Tiffin with famous Kushboo Idly and the sambar was so nice, I was totally enjoyed the day.

New suffer

As I feared I brought the Eye pain from my dad, who brought it from my bro. I hoped it’s a contagious virus, if we use some thing that was used by an eye pain person, but not while we facing other eyes and even though I was careful and hope it will not attack me, but I got the symptoms of it on by Sunday evening. I never know it will go severe like this, of giving much pain, white eyes change as bloody with swilling, headache, fever and bring me to bed for three long days. It was the first time I experienced the eye pain (Madras eye) in my life, I thought the eyes will change red and if we put drops it will go, but for me, having low defiance power to face any viral disease it reflects double as compare to others. My mom and dad was worried of my situation, because I will not lie in day times except the 10pm to 7 am at night, I just do some thing. Much of my cousins are surprise to know I was lie down for 3 days. These days I was fully shut off from my all activities, like computer, reading, walking…

My bro is sin every one was scolding him for bringing the eye pain to the house, and spread to everyone. Even I too feared of seeing my eyes, I loss the pain now, but the red eyes are still continues. Was putting medicine for my eyes for every 4 hours, and hope it will be normal soon.

Young Veyyil (Sun Light)

G.V. Prakash Kumar this name is the hottest in the cine field now. Director Shanker who introduced him as a kid singer in his film GentleMan 10 years ago, and who also singed the Kaadhal Yaanai from Anniyan, now he has introduced him again as an young Music Director for his banner Veyyil (Sun Light). I brought the album Veyyil with A.R.Rahman in my mind, because Prakesh’s Uncle Rahman was 18 when he composed music for Film Roja, but Prakesh’s composition was very different its’a mixture of all Western and Indian. In his album Veyyil it has folk, soft melody, duet and village music.

The First one Veyyilodu Vilayadi Veyyilodu Uravadi…. Brings the small enjoyments we had in our childhood through the lyrics. The song starts with the big band sound and continues with the festival drums famously know as Thappadi. Guess this song would popular in rural villages.

The soft melody Uruguthae Maruguthae… the song has Shreya Ghoshal awesome voice and the try of Shanker Mahadevan in the melody voice was different. Prakash should be appreciated by the way he handling the song, it remains me the song Asai Asai eppoluthu… from dhool.

Ooran Thottathil Varathu potta velarikka… was energetic and a youthful song, which has some traditional games in the lyrics and the instrument’s used in the songs, gave a feel of dancing, the high pitch voice in the middle have a mix of Anniyan style.

Here goes my favorite song from Prakash is Kadhal Nerupin Nadanam… It has something special from him. It starts with the Arabian Vocal cords Ena Rackin my luv En odi my luv…. It has the touch of Harish jayaraj’s Omasa eya Mariyaya… form kaka kaka. I was impressed by the lyrics, esp the second para of the lyrics is soothing and the voice of my fav karthik & the Chinmaya has good combination. Here I share the Lyrics of the song (the original and translation of the song) :

Love is dance of fire
Melt the life and lose of travel.
Love is movement of water, cyclone sleeps
silent of sea.
Love a magic world, cheetah catch in spiders net
spotted deer’s, smile and redeem it
Eyes change as a plant, which blooms dreams because of u
In the age and mind, the colors flows let by let because of u
To cushion on ur playing beautiful hands, a stage have to fell of my head.
Live rain, when the time umbrellas were absent.
Your two hands change as an umbrella.
Colors changes in your breath,
one crore rivers rushes into body.
Like a bird, you and I can go of the other side to the sky.
Like the roots, can we go long on the bottom of the earth.
Crore clouds crawl and dance above the head.
Love asks the language and becomes rain.
Haven’t seen the flower smell for hundred centuries,
it blow everywhere on the earth.
You inside me and me inside you
Time creates the Love doll.
