A fine morning in Augsburg

Born with a zodiac sign Sagittarius I hate daily routine, I hate monotony. Of course certain things r unavoidable. They need to be done. But I keep trying to break the monotony of things which can be done the other way round. Like today i just kept myself away from the net and gave full attention to sonu. I didn't kept myself busy in the household work which seems inevitable to homemakers.
The first concept which had attracted me to come abroad was the time 4 self. I believe that every being should dedicate some time to our soul. Sometimes i feel such a peace chanting the gayitri mantra and admastotra.. It gives a different treat to the soul.
Another way to give relief and time to self is do what u loved to do once upon a time. I never did this. I always gave some time to myself. Books were forever my best friend. And still they are. Jhumpa lahiri and Chetan bhagath......novels of Sarathchandra...Satyajit ray touched my heart...and I feel that I am doing something meaningful in life. Today while we both toured towards the park near Bruntal, sonu had fun making sand house with a cute chinese girl . The girl's mom was playing and building the sand house with sonu. I was deep in the new book Unaccustomed earth by Jhumpa. Kuntal bought it last week. I hope she had written more books that what she is doing now. I have read Interpretation of maladies so many times, by-hear-ted Namesake and even watched the movie whenever chance came. Ashok says there books are for Traveling the whole world without moving an inch. What a say.. Again this book says Human nature will not flourish, any more than a potato, if it be planted and replanted, for too long a series of generations, in the same worn-out soil. By Nathaniel Hawthorne.The another good quality I like about her books is that she can explain the typical lifestyle of bengalis in such a simple yet perfect way. It reminds me of so many instances of our day to day life.
Sonu has recently started enjoying Gopalbhar. Its a comic character and I have introduced to him the comic and witty personality which even i enjoyed a lot. And still I love to watch gopal in you tube. Its such a fun to be with kids. I realise that the child within me also gets up and keeps giggling with sonu. Thank u God for giving me such a gift. His love, smile, tantrums, everything makes my life worth living. I am really enjoying MOTHERHOOD.
