Phone calls..

Usually, I call up home whenever I have to talk to my parents and sister, but once in a while this surprise comes when I receive a call from home..Whoever said" There is no place like Home", long live that person..
One feels very nicee when the call comes as a surprise..There are times when bogged down by work or mood being off or for whatsoever silly reason, I dont call up home, and then there will be a call from home asking why I hadnt call and if all is fine at my end.During those times,I would kind of know when seeing the number flashing on my mobile..But here, I'm refering to those times, when during the dawn of the day and when mom calls up to check if I had breaker/lunch..Mom, you are the best in the world! Being away from home for almost 10 years now, I treasure these calls. And the nice smile that comees up on my lips as soon as seeing the number flashing on the mobile, I get transported to a different world altogether, where one neednt worry about anything happening at my end, but think of home, think of parents, think of sis , and live in their world. Thanks Amma for calling. Thanks Appa for all the love that you send through the RF signals that reaches me intact and I can feel and live in the warmth of your love and affection, Thank you my dear sister, Appu chellam, for you are the apple of my eye!

This blog seems to have been written long time back.Yet I could not stop myself from posting a comment.
My family is totally opposite of yours, they are good people, when you are with them, but they somehow never would call me on their own, I think they have the mental block that making a call would cost money, that too, even now when it is so much easier to call anyone with out worrying.
They would be very happy if I called, but would never call if I didn't call for months together.
My elder sister who too lives in Madras would talk for an hour not noticing the time, but where as she would never call me on her own.
Then I have sister in Boston, who would call from there and would talk for hours, which is kind of irritating because, I can't get any work done while she is on the phone.
Strange people all of them,none of them are tuned to proper method of calling.To think, I am part and parcel of the same family. The same with my in laws, they have nothing to talk, and they would make a cal only if there is something important to convey.
I sometimes wonder, why I am stuck in the middle of such weird people.
Good to know you find my blogs interesting. Thanks, and don't hesitate to visit my blog whenever you feel like.
