Posted his pic as my status on WhatsApp as well. ❤❤❤❤
Now writing here. Still feel like giving it an even bigger celebration 💞💞💞💞
Why is it that my heart feels closer to them🤔. By them I mean to say specially abled. And by that it means someone having any or some physical or mental less ability when compared to we so called normal bodied ones. 🙏
(I do wish to develop my writing abilities so as to give an even better expression to my thoughts). Anyways…
Is it due to my last lives’ connections?
Why I have a very deep and special bond with them. And this is not a new development. When in college hostel, at age 16, Asha was my favourite. I always used to be a support to her whenever her polio ridden legs put any hindrance in day to day activities. Then during my office years, age 19 onwards, I used to record voice tapes of study lectures for my blind colleague, Basanti . She was doing B. A. then. I had developed good friendship bonds with another blind Satya and two more colleagues. I even thought of learning brail so as to do some translation work for blinds. It didn’t materialise though.
Later when my heart started searching for a life partner,at age 21 to 23, I used to reply secretly to the matrimonial ads from persons with disability. I clearly remember how I went to a blind boy’s home also, all by my self, to meet him and his family. Honestly speaking, I was unable to take it further after being there for an hour or two. Also I met a guy with polio leg, and again it did not click. Then I even went all the way to Agra, all by myself, through a matrimonial ad only. That boy was leading a wheel chair life since his birth, so to say. I spent full one day with the family. Once back, I disclosed my wish to marry a disabled (but very well educated and settled) person. I remember vaguely that my brother had got very angry at this. Somehow, all this didn’t materialise.
Today I can clearly observe a pattern, a mental pattern. Till date, now am 55, whenever I make plans to go out and help in a NGO, its always for disabled people. Some of us are aware of IAMD, Solan, (Indian Association of Muscular Dystrophy ) having branches in Delhi and Chandigarh. Swamiji also have a very special place in his heart for the children of the centre. They are all leading a wheel chair life.
You know I have taken on rent a small room for myself near IAMD, Solan centre and have paid one visit also. Swamiji’s latest blog has motivated me enough and now I will surely be visiting the centre atleast once in every 2-3 months. This is my soul’s calling. I can’t suppress it any more under the ever present cloak of family responsibilities.
May Divine fulfill my dream of spending more and more time with them. I leave this to Universe to chalk out the further path for me, and what role IT wants to assign me.
Family’s wishes and blessings are solicited🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️🙇♀️
Jai Shri Hari 🌹
