Are you one of those people who recycles things around them. Like putting paper where it should be and plastic on its own place? Well I for one have thought about it but the “desi” nature and mindset kind of comes in the way. Yes I know, atleast we can try. So have been trying to put paper in its own bags and plastic in the other so let’s see how long it lasts.

Some easy ways one can move into being good at recycling:-

• Have different bags for different type of “trash” – Paper, Plastic, and other stuff
• Batteries are VERY VERY dangerous, don’t EVER throw them in regular trash

Phew now that was a big list wasn’t it. You can add your own stuff :)

I am writing a lot these days about kids and families and so on. Reason being that I am seeing a lot around me the kind of “care” some children show towards their parents. When someone is ill their sense of being touchy increases a lot and when they are parents they do expect that kids do take out time to ask them how they are doing and so on.

When one knows that your parent is ill to the extreme, then how come some children find other things more important rather then spending time with someone who is the PRIME reason that they are in this world? If it was in my control I would put all those type of children on a big ship and send them so far away that their parents never ever go through the hell of finding out that them caring for their kids was just a total loss.

Why don’t these kids see that them not caring for their parents at the hour of need is a disgrace to humanity and I personally feel that anyone who doesn’t have feelings for their parents isn’t fit to be called a human being.. and yes not even an animal, since even animals have some bit of affection for their parents.

Every day I go to a lake near our place to feed the ducks and birds etc. And no I didn’t say to “feed on” the ducks or birds, I take two loafs of bread with me which I make into small pieces and then scatter them onto the lake or near some tree trunks.

While I was “showering” the ducks with the bread I was thinking about something that i am sure most of you have already thought of from before. That God works in mysterious ways, and how he does what he has promised. Which is providing his creations with food no matter where they are.

Standing there and putting some bread pieces next a tree trunk I was thinking, that although I am putting the bread for the ducks and birds around this area, there might be thousands of small insects that might be feeding on the bread too which is left on some sides. Surely there must be some pieces of bread which I threw near the trunk which got stuck between two stones or some other plant root where a few hundred insects or reptiles might be appearing later on to eat.

I never thought of such a thought that since I have the bread in my hand, it’s me who is feeding them. I just smile and throw the bread pieces thanking God to give me atleast enough to buy food for creatures that he otherwise even without my “help” would manage to feed without a problem. Today while I was near the lake I had a very strange thought. I was thinking of helping the insects hehe yah I know wierd but yah I was thinking if I can locate where the insects have their “homes” like you know those big holes or tiny holes that stick out in the ground.. I could place a peace of bread there everyday near the entrance of their “door” so when they get out at night they would be greeted with a big yummy bread ka piece.

Aww imagine if there were giants like that for us humans that put food for us right outside our door everyday. But heyy… wait a minute!!! Isn’t that why he gave us two arms, two legs, and a brain to think and use to EARN and get what we think we should deserve for free?

Oh yes :) He is providing everything we want and all we need is to open our eyes up and see for ourselves.. that it’s not he who needs us, it’s us who need him…
