Unconditional Love

The only unconditional, pure love which exists in this whole world, is the Mothers love. I realized this, when I became a mother. The moment, a child is born, a mother is also born. And for her, the small bundle of joy in her arms becomes the whole universe. She will sacrifice anything in this entire universe for her kid. Everything that was surrounding her,even her better half, will become secondary ( irrespective of the constant complaints from the better half :) , for the lack of attention he is getting).

I have been to old age homes. On my way back, I was always disturbed and  heartbroken.My mind will be bursting with thousands of questions . I believed strongly that, the one curse from the parents is enough to spoil the entire life of the kids. But now I know, even if a mother scolds her kids thousand times, deeply down in her heart, she will be praying for their wellness, thousand and one times. This is possible only for a mother.

Short & Tragic Life of Robert Peace

A deep biography of a life short lived. This book is about the life of Robert Peace,a YALE Graduate, who was a very bright student thorough out the academics. His life , if we map to a picture, its just like symbol 'V'...with one branch representing his Intelligence, Dedication towards the loved ones, Deep love for the parents and the other branch representing the path one shouldn't take in life, the part of his life which he had spend as a drug dealer and which led to the tragic end of his life.

At one point I believed that its the circumstances that made him choose the wrong path. But later I disagreed with myself.  In life, we all come across situations where we will be utterly shattered and left with no choices. But still from deep within, we realize that its not the end and we should move on. We will always try to find a positive path to continue our journey. Such a path exists, only thing is are we able to find it or not?

The impact of the book was with me for few days even after finishing it.I felt like Robert was someone whom I know very well.  This book is a good pick for the teen readers.
