Problem with Accent

Born and bought up in Kerala was the proudest thing I have. But when it comes to my English accent, it is not very proud feeling. I have, rather I had prominent Malayalam twist. Now it is reduced after staying away from home about 14 years.

But still I do have this South Indian tune. My daughter born and bought up out Kerala, same time her mother also born and bought up out side Kerala. So My wife, has a neutral accent but she has a english accent Malayalam. My daughter who born and bought up outside kerala, plus groomed by my wife has only English accent, She wont even talk malayalam.

It is creating problem from me, when go to my home town. My father to my neighbors do not want to talk to her. All have only smile and escape from her. We, Keralites wont learn English but wont accept that we dont know that language.

I had the same problem, thats why, I took more time to learn other language.

But thats not my problem now. When my daughter speak, our apartment mates greet her and talk to us.

then they will say, she has a good accent!

Who is she?

My daughter !

Really !!

Yes man, a father and a daughter can have different accent!!

My Parrot.....

I bought a parrot.... I bought a cage for the parrot.... I did everything to make the parrot comfortable... but I put the parrot in the cage... I fed the parrot.... I thought her call my name... I am used to hear my name in the morning... My mornings have a meaning.... That took me to different level of person... The person I wanted... The person I dream of.... I still awake with my parrots call... I earned the ability to do things for parrot... I have decorated the cage with gold... The cage made of gold... But I noticed my parrot... Is she happy?  She is calling me still... Is she satisfied ? That made me think... I saw the pain in her face... I saw the dryness in her voice... I saw the weakness in her smile.... I have open the door of her golden cage.... I want to free you up... Parrot  is not able to walk through the doors... Parrot worried about her duty... Parrot still awake me... from her open cage... with no energy no enthusiasm.... ...

Stay away, Stay in !

Leading a happy life is a dream  Instead we live a life to come out of sadness  We pray to get of sadness  We worry about past  We tense about the future  Removing sadness is a task  I am trying hard to remove my sadness  To fill the joy  So many problems around me  And within me  Not able to look inward  Because so many problems are around  Is there any control I have on the problems around ?  Really, no !  Still, I am behind it  My all life is surrounded in the problems  I don’t have a control  Can I pause and not bother around ? Can I stop worrying the problems I don’t have any control ? In fact, it not my business  What I want is happiness!  Can I be happy without any reason?  Can fill my life with happy ?  Without worry to remove sadness  Too much of happiness will remove my sadness  I do not have any role in it !  Give me the power to detach myself from the probl...

happiness !!

Marriage is the most beautiful feeling generally people go through. After marriage I am not sure, everyone go through the same feeling. On marriage day, you feel the person next you is the most beautiful or handsome person you have met. Same way, the most kindest, lovable and trustable person you have met. We try to show the more handsome look on that day. We decorate ourself to show that. in terms of character as well. Is it faking? on our happiest day, are we faking? I dont think. We are not faking but we are trying to be that handsome guy or most truested or most lovable or most kindest person in this planet. I can vouch again for the majority. We are being honest on that day of happiness. So on the happinest day, we all are happy, handsome, beautiful, kind, trustworthy and so on and so forth. But what hell, after marriage things are taking a turn? why are we not happy as our marriage through out our life?  yes, there is only one reason, we are inviting trouble and forget...
