Hospital Trivia.

Hospital Life
  1. Its business for the hospital, its personal for you.
  2. No matter how healthy you were the day before, you shall be deemed a patient by various means. Ex. Hospital Uniform, medicines.
  3. You shall witness a sudden spurt of love and emotions among your not-so-distant relatives.
  4. Every tom, dick and harry shall visit you and make sure that you have noted their presence. The motivation could be concern, love or…. ah lets not name it.
  5. If you haven’t ever believed in God, you shall.
  6. If you believe in God, you shall feel him.
  7. You will be proved highly ignorant of your body and its functioning and you shall wish you had paid a little more attention in the boring biology class so that you could have taken up medicine instead.
  8. You will feel the taste of humanity when ward boys, nurses do their service with sincerity and honesty.
  9. The ward boys and nurses shall grow more closer to you than your blood relatives.
  10. You shall realize - afterall, there is still good in this world. And it is true.
  11. You will pledge to live a more satisfactory life, to do more service, to be a little more nicer to people, to smile a little more. And lets hope we cherish that spirit.
  12. All of a sudden you will realize how PRECIOUS your health is. I mean we all know and talk about it, but you shall REALIZE.
  13. All of a sudden you will realize how delicate and yet how marvelous your body is.
  14. All of a (not-so) sudden you will start to see how in body, mind and soul the other person is so similar to you.
  15. You will learn to be thankful for everything. To the workers who constructed the hospital in the first place, to BSNL for their mobile network, to the ground floor cafeteria for supplying with much needed food and beverages, to the surgeon’s teachers for teaching him so that he could save your life today… I mean you will be thankful for everything.

And if you are lucky enough to realize exactly how valuable is your presence on this earth - you shall remain THANKFUL for the rest of your life.

PS : All the above revelations and possibly more could happen faster and shall be much more gratifying if you have a Mediclaim Policy/Insurance.

PPS : This is not an advertisement for any health insurance provider.

I wish that all these revelations shall come to you all without every having to visit a hospital.

I had never woken up on time before. But this day I was up well before the alarm time @ 3:20 a.m and surprisingly my wife was too. We all got ready in silence; the ride to the place was painfully long though my father-in-law drove as fast as he could, in fact the fastest as far as I can remember. He usually never misses noticing a hump on the road, but that day the car galloped over it and he blamed it on dim light. Nobody replied though.

Are we in charge?

Yesterday I had a discussion with my friend. The argument was whether we are in control of what we do, or are we kind of puppets. As per his view of this world, all of us are like software programs, defined clearly before we came on this earth. Our future is already written and there is nothing we can do about it. In essence, we are like puppets, our destinys already written and decided.
