Impact of classroom hunger and how to eliminate it

Hello friends,

Every day we are searching for lunchbox recipes in the internet to give tasty and healthy meal for our school going kids. We are also sending snacks box, juices and or milk to them. Nowadays, schools are insisting to bring only healthy food items and they put a ban for non healthy junk items. We make sure that we are adding enough nutrients in their lunch and snack boxes. We are choosing apple, pomegranate, grapes and other fruits to pack for snacks box and to make juices.

This is happening in one side of India. Do you know about the other darker side? Every day millions of children are forced to choose between education and hunger.

Impact of Classroom hunger:

Parents stop their kids from going to school and ask them to go for a job.  Kids who are suffering from classroom hunger also agree to the decision of the parents. The primary need of anyone in this world is food. When the kids are not able to get it, they choose job over education. There are millions of children who quit their education quite early because of classroom hunger.

Shall we ever think how we can eliminate class room hunger?

How to eliminate class room hunger?

There are lot of options available to eliminate class room hunger.

1. Sponsor a poor child you know  who is struggling for food and offer him or her meal every day.
2. Join a genuine foundation. You can sponsor for the food through them. But make sure you are helping through a genuine foundation and your money will not get wasted. You have to keep in mind that there are lot of groups calling them as foundation but cheating the people. So, please make sure to verify the foundation before you sponsor. Akshayapatra is one such foundation which is a trusted one.
3. Approach a village and find a poor child to feed.
4. Approach schools in village and ask them to suggest the kids who struggle for food.
5. Start sponsoring and ask your friends to contribute for this noble cause.

Class room hunger is one of the social issue which has not yet been eliminated from India. Hope we all put our best effort to eliminate it and help the children to focus on their education. When children can learn without worrying about hunger, they can concentrate on their studies. India will develop a lot.

Impact of losing the Spark in life and Tips to keep it alive

We all know that count of cases of marriage failures is increasing day by day. You cannot even imagine how rapidly it is increasing. The problem is people do not know how to keep the spark alive. They don't have even time to think about it. Be it gents or women, both of them are independent now even financially. Both of them are equally busy too. So, the probability of losing the spark and chemistry is so high in this hectic life.

Some people are smart enough in understanding things and they take enormous care to keep their wedding life smooth smartly. But some are missing their wedding boats. A tiny issue are leading to divorce also nowadays. If you have good spark and chemistry between you, both small and big issues cannot shake you anyways.

Breaking wedding life not only affects you. It also washes out the happiness of your parents and children lifelong. So, it is our responsibility to keep the passion.

Few Tips to keep the spark alive:

1. Everyone is different. Your partner might do what you do not like. Its okay if you fight with him for a couple of days and sometimes a week. But someone should come forward to resolve it. Let it be you also sometimes.

2. When you have major problems with your partner, think about your kids' future. At least for them, you need to keep the marriage life to move on.

3. Words can lie. Looks can deceive. But a touch has the potential to reveal the truth. So, do not mind to hold his hands, give him a hug or even a gentle touch. Do you think that it cannot melt your partner's heart? Sometimes when you cannot convince him with your words or looks, you can use the touch as your weapon. You will definitely conquer easily.

I would like to share a small story with you. Vishal and Meenu are a couple who got married after 5 years of love. They married after a lot of struggle but just after one month of their marriage, they got a small misunderstanding between them.

Vishal and Meenu stopped talking to each other. They don't even face them directly. Both of them are working. So, they both have no time to resolve the issue also. No one else is aware of their problem. They have the love but they did not have passion to reignite the spark. Vishal and Meenu had to attend a family friend's marriage. They went to attend the marriage. The time had come to take photographs. The wedding couple has compelled Vishal and Meenu to take photograph with them. Vishal went and stood with the bridegroom. Meenu stood near the bride. The photographer told that there is no liveliness in the face and the photo will not come good. He asked them to smile. They smiled but with no genuineness.

Photographer came to Vishal and pushed him near Meenu. "Go and stand there. Let's see whether you smile good", he said. He stood by compulsion but again with lack of passion. The photographer told that still it was not good. The bridegroom took the hand of Vishal and put around Meenu's neck. Can you guess what happened? The chemistry started working out and spark was reignited. They both had tears in their eyes due to happiness of being united again after a long time. They were not able to keep their fight alive after that minute. Both smiled nicely and the photographer finally took a perfect shot.

Bring back the touch and Have a Nice day!! I am signing off now. Bye.

Fantastico tips to avoid baby falling off the bed

Hello friends,

This post makes parents and parents-to-be aware of the risks of leaving the babies on the bed unattended and what to do when they fall off the bed or couch. It also covers what to do when the baby falls off the bed.

I want to share 2 real life incidents that happened in my friends life and 1 from a newspaper. All of them never knew the risks of leaving the babies on the bed before their babies fell off the bed.

The point is, if you are aware of the risk, you will not put them on the bed and leave unattended.

Incident #1:

My friend had left her sleeping baby(stage - before starting crawling) with a pillow aside the baby. She went and started cooking. After few minutes, she heard that the baby was crying a lot. She found the baby lying on the floor. She immediately took it to a hospital where she was told that nothing has happened to the baby.

Incident #2:

My another friend has put her baby(just started crawling, but very very little) near her and slept in tiredness unintended. She woke up after hearing her baby crying after falling off the bed. The baby stopped crying in few seconds and started playing. No injuries found.

Incident #3:

I read this in a newspaper. Same as the first case. But the baby got the head injury and had to undergo several surgeries.

Fantastico tips to avoid baby falling off the bed:


1. Forget the cot just for the safety of your little one. Buy a fold-able bed and use it on the floor for sleeping. Even if you sleep next to your baby who started to move, it is risky to sleep on the bed. We do not know when the baby learns to crawl. Most of the mothers having less than 1-year-old will feel tired always because of lack of continuous sleep. So, use the bed on the floor to avoid any tragedies. You will feel relaxed. Make sure that you do not leave any harmful objects within their reach.

2. If you are using a cot, put the cot in a corner such that at least 2 sides of the beds are covered with a wall. Buy 2 fold-able beds and put them on the other sides. Hence, you can make sure that even if your baby falls off from a bed, nothing serious will happen. I would recommend the first option only.

3. Do not leave your child unattended if you are in a situation to put him/her on the bed. You should not sleep since mere presence cannot ensure your child's safety.

4. When you leave your baby with anybody else's care, do not forget to tell them to follow the above points since they might not be aware of the risk.

What to do when the baby falls off the bed or couch?


1. Don't be panic. Lift them slowly because we do not where the baby has injuries(I pray that it should not happen).

2. Calm the baby down. Consulting a doctor immediately is a must since we do not know whether the baby has internal injuries.

Share this article with your other mommy friends and help babies to get protected from falling off the bed.

If you have such experience or aware of any such incidents, please share in the comments section which will be helpful for other parents like you.

More useful articles are going to come in this blog. Please subscribe to your email address or like the facebook page to get the new post updates immediately.

Impact of Pimples on Daily Life

"Oh No!" - This is what every girl says when she sees a newborn pimple in the mirror on her face. I am not an exception. The newborn will grow a lot and leave a mark even after dying. It will make me see my face so often in the mirror and makes me feel shy to go out. There are a lot of problems we face every day. It affects our everyday life too.

Below are the common problems I face when it comes to Pimples and the impact it has on my everyday life.

Impact of Pimples on Daily Life:


1. Have to say 'No' to my little kid:

It is worst to get pimples in cheeks. When my little kid comes to kiss me, I have to say him 'No' sadly and show him the other cheek. Also, I have to be very careful and control him when he plays with my face. It is too bad to control him when he shows his love to me.

2. No for beauty blog posts:

I used to plan every Sunday what I am going to post the whole week. I try to create a balance between beauty posts, recipes and other miscellaneous posts. If I see a pimple on my face, I feel guilty to write beauty posts and postpone it. Even though no one is going to see my pimple, I feel bad to write about it.

3. House Arrest:

Unless and until it proves to be necessary, I will postpone my outdoor plans as far as I can. I prefer staying at home instead of showing my pimple glowing face to others.

4. No free makeup:

I suffered a lot when a pimple left a mark in between my eyebrows. It was in the slightly lower part. When I put bindi in the usual place, it looked awkward. Sigh! I could not even see my face. So, I had to put my bindi on the mark to hide it. There were 2 marriages I had to attend. Everyone was asking why I had kept my bindi on the nose :( The mark was too bold to attract everyone and I wanted to hide it literally. I had no answer to explain everyone. So, I had to give them back just a smile.

5. Need to be Alert all time:

We have to be alert all the time even while sleeping. In case, if we scratch a pimple with the nails, the whole story will become worst. It will be painful too. I remember waking up in the middle of so many nights because of scratching the pimples while sleeping.

Preventive and Remedial measures for pimples:

I am glad that I am not the one who suffers from pimples every day. I ensure that I always choose a face wash which washes away the germs, pollution and excess oil. These 3 are controllable factors which cause pimples.

1. Germs: 

Germs are one of the main reasons of pimples. You have to make sure that you are protecting your face from pimples. Our face wash should be able to wash away the problems which cause germs.

2. Pollution:

Our face gets impurities easily by the high amount of pollution. Our face wash should deep clean the pores to remove impurities caused by pollution.

3. Oil:

Excess oil is capable of attracting dirt and germs. Our face wash should be able to wash away excess oil.

Home Remedies for Pimples:

Neem leaf is a popular ingredient to prevent our face from pimples. It also helps to remove pimples from our face. Tea tree oil extracts also help in this regard.

You can grind the neem leaves with few drops of water and apply on pimples. You need to reapply till the pimples go off.

The problem is it looks ugly when you apply neem on your face. You cannot face anyone when you apply it. But it is worth to try when you are at home.

When there are no pimples, there is no chance for marks. I feel prevention is better than cure. Use a good face wash which can protect your face from pimples. Take care of your face and Say 'Bye' to Pimples and ugly marks.

My hubby, A man who is #MadeOfGreat

The Almighty has given me a wonderful person as my life partner who is #Madeofgreat. I love him each and every minute and there were million times when he swept me off his feet. Five years have passed and we are blessed with a wonderful kid. But still our love is growing day by day. He is the one with whom I share my joys, secrets, sorrows and sufferings.

With all his good characteristics, he always inspires greatness in me. He is simple, confident, honest, jovial, helpful and kind-hearted. He possesses great characteristics like humility, morality, tenacity and respect. There were numerous things I can list out but I want to write about an incident which made my tears to come out in proud of having such a wonderful human being as my husband.

It was the day when we decided to buy an air conditioner for our home. All of us went to an electronic shop and ordered an air conditioner. They told us that they would deliver it on the next day. When we were returning back to home, we had crossed a temple. I asked him whether we could go there. He told me that he would take us next time. He never used to tell no for going to temple. For the first time, he told that he would take us next time. I was also okay but I never knew that it happened for a reason.

We were coming on the Grand Southern Truck road. It is a national highway and one of the busiest highways in southern India. Vehicles used to go in high speed and every one should be careful while crossing the road.

I saw a big crowd in one lane and we had crossed it so quickly. I spotted an old man lying on the road. I saw him only for fraction of second. I immediately told my hubby what I saw. He slowed down the car and parked it. He asked me to stay inside the car with the kid.

I turned back to check what was happening. Every one in the crowd was standing far away from the old man. I guessed that the old man got hit by a vehicle while crossing the road. I thought that the man might have lost his life and that should be the reason why every one was standing helpless. I saw my hubby walking towards the man. The crowd was standing in the opposite side. I thought he would go and ask somebody on what happened and he would help if required.

But he went directly to the old man and took his wrist to check the pulse. The whole crowd immediately came near the old man. I was not able to see what was happening after that since the crowd had surrounded the man. Tears started coming out like a flood from my eyes when I saw that incident. I felt so proud of having such a wonderful husband.

People were just watching the old man lying in a pool of blood assuming that he had died. No one bothered to check whether he was alive. Every one was simply watching him. But when my hubby started checking the pulse, every one came running. Every one had starting trouble even to save a life. My hubby became a role model for every one in the crowd.

I saw an ambulance coming immediately and taking the old man. I saw two more young guys getting inside the ambulance. The ambulance had started but the crowd had not dispersed. I knew that they all would be standing and talking for a while about the accident.

My hubby came back. I asked him whether the man was alive. He said yes. I was so happy and asked him what happened after he went there. I told him that I was not able to see from the car.

"When I checked the pulse, I found that he is alive. I immediately called the ambulance. That is when every one started coming towards the old man. The driver told that he was in a nearby place and reach in few seconds. The man was lying in a pool of blood and one of his legs got severely injured.", he told. "Thank God! We have seen him. If you had not gone, nobody should have bothered to call even ambulance.", I told.

"Two more medical college students came at that time and they are only going along with the man in the ambulance. They told me that they would take care of him.", he told.

I prayed for the man to save the old man's life. I also thanked God for giving me a wonderful soulmate. At that time, I realized that if we could have gone to temple, the old man might not have gotten timely help. I thanked God again.

After we returned back to home, I immediately called my mom and told everything. Every one in my family felt so proud of my husband.

I have never seen such heroism in the real world. On that day, I realized that I have a hero with me as life partner. He is my love and he is someone who is #madeofgreat.

He always insist that we should not think even for a second to help others. We might be able to save even someone's life. I realized the true meaning of it on that day. I still believe that the old man is living somewhere happily. I could feel a wonderful transformation within myself.
