Happy Birthday Papa

Its been a very long time since I wrote a post here. Today its gonna be a short post just for you dad,  i will try to capture a memory that still comes in front of my eyes every single day.


I wake up every morning and when I look out of the window I see kids being dropped at school by there dad's....
I really miss those days when you used to drop me at school... specially the days when I did not feel like going to school... I still remember how I will get ready sluggishly so that I miss the school bus....but still Mom would ask you to drop me at school as I wud have already taken some  8-10 leaves that month :P :P...
Once we would reach school I would get out of the car and start moving towards the school gate slowly and lazily.... and seeing me walking so lazily you would call me from behind " Harry, ki gal jana nai ?? and then I will just look back and then you'll say chal aaja wapis chaliye chad rehan de :) :) :) :) :)... miss u dad and miss those days, love u !!!

I still feel like a little child when I look into your eyes. If I can be even half of the person you are, I will consider myself to be an extraordinary human being. Thanks for showing me the way, dad.
Happy Birthday! Papa

The 12 o'clock story

12 O'clock, the Sikhs go out of their senses - The reality !


Nadir Shah raided Delhi in the year 1739 and looted Hindustan and was carrying lot of Hindustan treasures and nearly 2200 Hindu women along with him. The news spread like a fire and was heard by Sardar Jassa Singh who was the Commander of the Sikh army at that time. He decided to attack Nadir Shah's Kafila on the same midnight. He did so and rescued all the Hindu women and they were safely sent to their homes.

It didn't happen only once but thereafter whenever any Abdaalis or Iranis had attacked and looted Hindustan and were trying to carry the treasures and Hindu women along with them for selling them in Abdal markets, the Sikh army although fewer in numbers but were brave hearted and attacked them at midnight, 12 O'clock and rescued women.

After that time when there occurred a similar incidence, people started to contact the Sikh army for their help and Sikhs used to attack the raider's at Midnight, 12 O'clock. Nowadays, some "oversmart people" have spread these words that at 12 O'clock, the Sikhs go out of their senses. Next time anyone uses these words they better interpret what it means.
