Real Togetherness


It’s not every day you get to watch an advertisement that is worth watching again and again. “Kissanpur – Discovering Real Togetherness” by www.kissanpur.com is one such wonderful AD I watched today on Facebook. The AD is about bringing people together with the help of nature. An old man enters in to a lift where no one cares to greet or smile at each other, followed by a few instances where everyone lives only in their digital world, and this hurts. A group of kids along with the old man bring together the society with the help of nature, and that’s the best part of it. This reminds me of an incident that happened exactly two years ago that helped bring people together and defined the meaning of real togetherness.

It was a summer season. The time was around six in the morning when we four friends initiated an idea to clean the poorly maintained big pathway in the center of our society. We brought the necessary tools from our houses, and started working on the task. We first collected all the garbage in a bin bag, removed all the unwanted plants, and sprinkled germ killer all over the place. It took almost three years to complete this task. We then painted the wall tricolor, and wrote Tamil proverbs on the wall. We planted a mango tree in the dedicated corner and created fence around it. We did all these in a single day. The next day we fixed a big waterproof box naming it “Suggestion Box” with a digital lock. We bought two new benches and placed it opposite to each other and in the middle we placed four pots sowing different plant seeds. All of a sudden the deserted place became a centre of attraction to the people in our society.

Elderly people gathered there every evening and started speaking with each other. Day by day the count increased, and we used this as an opportunity to bring out the hidden talent in each person of our society. Slowly it attracted the youths and even the kids as well. Everyone started revealing their hidden talents like dancing, singing, reciting poems, acting, etc., It helped kids and youths to familiarize with elders and in turn elders understanding the passion of their kids. We even recorded events and reached people in the digital world. By this way we came together every day, spoke with each other, shared our passions, and created opportunities for a bright future. In the meantime, the mango plant became a small tree, the seeds we sowed turned into colorful plants, and this added beauty to our Crazy Corner.

Thus, we experienced the real power and meaning of real togetherness, in this digitally connected world.


It's Summer Time. Let's Stay Fit!

It's Summer Time. Let's Stay Fit!
Summer has come! Finally! After chilly winter days in Hamburg, the weather turned beautiful from last week. The mercury is crossing the early twenties. I can see more people cycling and coming in two pieces to office. Like most of the men in late twenties, I too, have a small tummy, credits to the freezing winter, the long office hours, and the weekends that were spent without any physical activity. I do not want to look old, and I badly want to get rid of the small tummy. I am not someone who prefer to skip breakfast or eating less for dinner to lose weight. In fact, I can never fast or skip food just for losing weight. That is, how I am, from my childhood.

There are two ways of reducing weight in a short span and that can be achieved by following a healthy diet and cycling to office, like I did, in the last summer and lost around seven Kgs, which unfortunately, I gained again in the winter. Now, it’s time to redo and get fit soon.

I prefer having a healthy breakfast, a good lunch, and a light dinner. For breakfast, I always prefer Honey on the top of sliced Banana. A recipe my wife and I like the most. It’s healthy and good for a decent breakfast. I prefer Dabur Honey, which I buy for a good price from Penny. For lunch, I prefer rice with any gravy, and for the dinner I prefer Indian Flat Bread. I call it a balance diet, because I have fruits and tea in between. Because a balanced diet helps to stay fit, stay healthy, and fight against the harmful bacteria by strengthening the immune system.

Do not take any risk when it comes to health, because a crash diet, can lead to several disasters, which includes a dozens of diseases that can never be heard before by a common man. This happens, particularly when you live in a county, where you have inadequate sunlight. So never ever take risk when it comes to food. Do follow a proper and healthy diet.


Also for those, who hates having healthy green salads, can opt for Honey Diet, which adds taste to the tongue, and also helps you to say healthy. Have a look at Dabur’s Honey Diet here.

Have a balanced diet, because no ones like to look aged or suffer because of a crash diet. Stay Healthy! Stay Fit! Stay Smiling!
