But how close, if at all, are we to doing it?<BR/>Children make you more vulnerable that you ever have felt before. And that is something that will stay with you till the end :) But most often its a good feeling to have. Of course when bad things happen, the terror strikes deep!<BR/><BR/>Discerning post!Usha Pisharodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08569968324374522544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118084439834362281.post-3772571456320632732008-12-10T12:59:00.000+05:302008-12-10T12:59:00.000+05:30lol.

We also pay our IAS (most corrupt) much more than we pay our soldiers, and it seems they have been fighting against this disparity, but the decision makers are the concerned party (babus).Indian Home Makerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649133480442907582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118084439834362281.post-48672609460322577502008-12-02T20:00:00.000+05:302008-12-02T20:00:00.000+05:30I understand what you say when you write about par...I understand what you say when you write about paranoia and fear after becoming a mum. That way, A did change my life. His van did not come an hour after the scheduled time from school today...I call the school, the lady there was so inconsiderate saying "Oh the parent is hyper and yelling to another colleague not even bothering to put me on hold!" I yelled back saying let me know what you would do if it were your kid! <BR/>I am flummoxed too about what can be done. It is not like we have a great dedicated set of politicians to choose from. One is as rotten as the other, still hope we must, vote we must. Lay more faith on our armed forces and allied services than these corrupt, selfish politicians. Not debate about rations to those who actually do their jobs....<BR/>Well written imp's mom :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3118084439834362281.post-15086881884962612762008-12-02T17:47:00.000+05:302008-12-02T17:47:00.000+05:30A little bit of hope and we'l go a long way in mak...A little bit of hope and we'l go a long way in making way for a better place. :)<BR/>Lets do make it a better place.<BR/>Take careMeirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615832258916668677noreply@blogger.com
