Thank U Dad with a King sized Hug

I thank God and my DAD who introduced me to this beautiful world. He has given me oceans of love, care and support, he is the first one to understand me and what I am wanting to say or do, his advices always boosts my confidence and his pure love and care fills me with a new hope. He is the World's best DAD. He has a beautiful heart which is full of love for everyone and makes me wonder how meaningless my life would have been without him. 

He is my inspiration, my motivation, my guide and I owe every bit of my existence to him. My Father gave me the freedom to fly, rise and fall to fulfill my dreams. He leads me and guides me in all that I do. He tries every thing possible and all that he can do to see me get through. Good times or bad times, he is always with me. He heard all my complaints and always said "I will take care ". He loves me a lot and always tries to cheer me up whenever I am in a sad mood. He is always worried for my meals. My daddy is a polite man who believes in non-violence and truth. 

As a child I saw the World from Papa's shoulders. He called me by cute funny nicknames as he played childish games with me. He has worked tirelessly to fulfill my Whims & Fancies. His advice has always guided me in the right direction especially when I was lost. He saved me from my mom's scolding’s. Dad stayed awake the whole night when I used to fall ill. He scolded and punished me when I did something wrong. But at the same time he gave me lots of love. He took time off to teach me to read, write, walk, and talk. As far as I can remember, I was never forced by my father to do anything that I did not want to do. My father plays different roles, as he guides me as a mentor, behaves like a buddy, play like a companion and protect me like a guardian. 

He lets me find my own way, even though his heart breaks in silence when I get hurt. He does everything in his power to keep the family safe from that which would injure or harm the family members physically, emotionally or spiritually. I also always follow this quality of my dad and try to keep everyone happy in my family. And make sure no one is facing any sort of problem. My father is my superhero, my inspiration, my philosopher, my guide. He is the one who has always supported me, no matter what and the one who believed in me when I doubted myself. The one, who has fed me with his hands, pampered me like anything. The one with whom I used to play all sorts of silly games. The one with whom I can speak my heart out. He is the one who always give me unconditional love which I absolutely love. You are the best father who is very emotional and kind hearted. You have a king sized heart. So you need a king sized hug in return.

A Loving Hug For A Loving Dad

Papa is that one word that gives me a feeling of ultimate trust and security. My dad is my best friend, my father and my boss. It was my father who taught me to value myself. For him I am the most precious thing in his life. My father is very special in his own ways. He nurtured me, held me in his arms, taught me, fought for me, hugged me, kissed me, cared for me and specially loved me unconditionally.

He is very close to my heart and his love glows & spreads the light of energy into me. My father's love is the best medicine when I am unwell; he is my best adviser when I am helpless and best friend when I need a shoulder to cry upon. His love is more comforting than anything in the world. He is Generous, original and devoted. My father possesses certain qualities that I admire. He is loving, caring, and selfless, hard-working, with good moral values. I can proudly say that I love him and want to follow in his footsteps.

The best advice my father gave me is to let go and not hold on to anything in life or anyone beyond their time. He told me not to hold on anything material stuff which is the law of nature. And I should accept changes in life. Plus I should definitely have an ambition in life because a person without ambition is like a bird without wings. 

Allow yourself to dream a little and think freely. He taught me to Learn to take control of my life and don't let the negative feelings trap me in their web plus trust your heart feelings which will give positive feelings about yourself. My father has taught me the importance of discipline, good manners, honesty, sense of duty and reverence towards the elders in life. He also taught me to defend and help the poor and the weak, and raise a protest against injustice. I have learned a very important thing from my father & that is we should be happy during the worst and best of times.

 My father is my Companion, my partner in crime. We giggle, we laugh, and we play together. His presence took away all my Fears. His positive attitude showed me the rainbow gleaming in the sky, a very beautiful sight to behold. I once saw only the rain and the dark clouds but my fathers Optimism made me see light in the darkness.
He made me Feel safe and secure always. He deserves all the happiness in life so I want to give him the "jaadu ki jhappi" and many hugs to express my happiness and love.

Ambipur saved the day

When I moved into a new job I found a sea of opportunities welcoming me in my new company. As both me and my wife were working in the same company we went out early and came back late only to quickly prepare and eat our meals and hit the sack but the one thing that bothered us a lot that even though  we were using an exhaust fan in the kitchen it did not push out the smell of the turmeric ,onions and garlic being cooked away from our home instead it only pulled in odors of fish and other non veg dishes into our home. Sitting at the dining table a lot of times we found the room filled with the smell of fish. A smell that was enough for us vegetarians to lose our appetite. With great difficulty we were managing existing in this house that the inevitable happened. Out of courtesy I invited my boss to our house. Actually I had never expected that he would accept the invitation as he rarely goes to the homes of his subordinates. Lighting struck me when he
gladly accepted my invitation to visit our home. I felt as if I had shot myself in the foot. Now what could be done. As the appointed day of the dinner was about ten days away my wife got into action. She got new curtains and upholstery covers for the sofas.The table cloth of the dining table was replaced with a new one but what could be done. Even the idea crossed my mind that I should personally visit my neighbors and request them not to cook any fish or non veg food on the D day but the preposterousness of the thought itself prevented me to execute it.   By the time the day of the dinner with the boss arrived our house was clean,spick and span and ready to welcome our boss and be the perfect venue for the party. The only weak link was the presence of bad odors in our house. Then out of nowhere a brainwave struck my wife and she ended up calling my mother and discussing the problem with her. Her mother in law that is my mother relied on her
experience and came up with the solution that We should buy and use Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener.Like a dutiful daughter in law (bahu) my wife immediately went to the market and brought the Ambi Pur Air Effects Spring & Renewal Aerosol Air Freshener.Using it in our home not only removed all the bad odors from our house but also made it smell so fresh and fragrant. At the appointed time when the boss arrived for dinner he complimented my wife for a beautifully smelling home. At that moment we realized that we had defeated bad odors for good and made our home smelling so fresh and vibrant

Maxfresh moment of redemption

When you switch on the radio, your music system or press the play button of your mobile or your ipods the music begins to play and it teleports us to a world where deadlines cannot scare us. No body can harm,torment and torture us by telling us that we are running late or we have an assignment to complete. It an union of the musical notes with our soul that unlocks the doors to our inner vitality and energy. 
We experience a new freshness listening to our favorite songs and even better would be the result if the singer happens to be my all time favorite diva Anushka Manchanda who is the darling of millions of fans and who has captured the imagination of the youth of the nation like no one else. She seems to read and understand the tone and mood of the youth of the country and perhaps that’s the reason why every song of hers comes direct from her heart and makes a lasting impression in our heart and soul. 
Even if you are in a crowd and listening to her songs just close your eyes and let the music flow . You would feel a refreshing energy flow through you. Such is the magic of her soulful singing. No other singer makes me feel the way Anushka Manchanda does when she takes the stage. The feeling of energy and freshness flowing through you is a condition or an emotion that needs to be expressed. 
I feel the best way to do so is to dance with South Superstar and dancing sensation Allu Arjun on the songs of Anushka Manchanda.
The zest and the zeal of such a musical  performance that is the dance of the movie superstar Allu Arjun and soulful rendition of Anushka Manchanda’s songs by the singing sensation herself is bound to create an experience that would sweep any one off their feet. 
This experience creates maxfresh moments that helps us experience the pure joy and power of music and singing. So my dream is to experience a live concert where I am not a mere spectator but get an opportunity to interact with Anushka MAnchanda and the dancing star Allu Arjun. 
I would love to be on the stage with them and be a part of their performance. This way I would get a break from my regular, uneventful and routine life. With the freshness I experience at such an event I would be better prepared to run harder when it comes to chasing office work, projects or deal with the monotony of daily life. It is a break that promises me the maxfrsh moment of energy, freshness and redemption that I desperately seek and desire.

on a way to a clear healthy skin

We all want glowing, blemish free radiant skin that is smooth and healthy. Due to the fast paced lifestyle that we live we end up using products that have harmful chemicals. As a result these products cause more harm than good. The best solution is to use natural products that have no side effects. Ayurveda comes to our aid in this regard. Talking of skin care the first ingredient that comes to mind is Turmeric or 'Curcuma longa ' .It is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial herb that is perinatal and so available throughout the year. The best part is that is easily available throughout the year. It is the most trustworthy herb when it comes to matters of skin care. If you ask me then I would only be too glad to hand out the time tested wisdom of skin care passed on to me by my mother who in fact got it from her mother. To this day she vouches by the almost magical properties of turmeric or haldi. It is such a time tested method that mothers would advice there daughters to have milk with haldi and kesar for a good glowing skin. Even expectant mothers are advised to drink this drink so that their off springs are gora-chitta (read fair and good looking)

Turmeric also finds its place in almost all the home made cosmetics so apply after mixing with water,milk or add flour to make a batna or a natural hair remover for the face and a sure shot method to make the face look beautiful in a short duration of 30 minutes to 1 hour

For pimples there are many simple tips that is of adding cinnamon powder into honey and mix it into a paste. It is advised not to add water to this paste. Then apply this mix on to each pimple and leave it over night. Next morning wash face with slightly warm water . This treatment is to be repeated every day.

Use a clean cotton swab to apply a few drops of lemon juice extracted from freshly cut lemon on to the pimples.Do this at night before going to sleep and only next day wash the face clean with water.

Applying the pulp and juice of a freshly cut tomato onto the pimples and leave it to dry . This is best done at night. Next morning wash the face clean with water . This treatment is to be done once a week.

Mixing a pinch of turmeric powder and coconut oil makes it into a paste and than applying it on to the pimples directly and leaving them overnight helps one get rid of the pimples.

Talking of remedies or skin care tips there are so many that revolve around turmeric and instead of tweaking and adding various ingredients I would suggest the "VICCO Turmeric Cream". This is a cream with foam base. It is an Ayurvedic formulation and does not have dangerous chemicals to harm the skin. It is a complete face care regime that is  prepares and protects the skin against oilyness, blackheads and pimples.It is easy to apply due to the fact that it is a foam based cream. Presence of turmeric gives it the power of warding off any bacteria and microbes that may be present on the skin. It can also be use to treat minor cuts and wounds, infection,allergies  and rashes.

Kapil da jawab nahin and his EkNayiLeague

Kapil Dev is coming with his new #EkNayiLeague and just what is it? My prediction is that it is a game shop with Kapil Dev as the host.In the quest to delve to find the answer to this question I look around and I see ads about Kapil Dev and his #EkNayiLeague are all over television channels. Go to the internet and watch any video and pops up an ad about Kapil Dev's #EkNayiLeague. The moment I log into twitter I see a flood of tweets inquiring, and asking questions about #EkNayiLeague. Looking deeper I find that these videos are teasers and emphasize the importance of playing with heart will lead to losing. This statemet emphasizes two important things one there is some kind of game play is involved and secondly there is some sort of skill that makes use of mental skills and emphasis is laid on not playing this league with ones heart.Kapil dev is a legend who played exemplary cricket and made India proud when he led the Indian team to the 1983 world cup victory. Whatever Kapil Dev does people end up saying Kapil da jawab nahin just as used to be said in the famous shaving cream ad that Kapil Dev used to be featured in in his hay days. There are a lot of signs that indicate that this is going to be a game show that too celebrity based. As he says in one of the video promos or teasers that stars do not retire. He emphasizes the importance of women in the field of sports and the way they have brought India a lot of Laural's at the international and highest level of sports. This indicates to me that women sports person would find a place in the new league. When Kapil Dev talks about how Yuvraj Singh has made a comeback after recovering from cancer shows that sports persons who have made a comeback and excelled and other people who have excelled after overcoming injury and illness would also find themselves being a part of this #EkNayiLeague. Cricket and bollywood go hand in hand so I feel that #EkNayiLeague is bound to have a fair representation from bollywood . However there would be no place for just good looking people or people that play with their heart. Kapil Dev ji gives importance to the fact that if you play this league with your heart then you are going to lose. In one of the clips he addresses comedy show host Kapil Sharma who brings us his laugh riot comedy show Comedy Nights with Kapil. I feel that it is not a mere coincidence that he picked up a TV star with a very high TRP ratings . TV personalities would find a place in the new league but with the caveat that if they play with their heart they would lose. So the new show is about to unveil and the mystery would unfold when Kapil Dev reveals the details on his twitter account @therealkapildev till then your guess is as good as mine.
