Let us celebrate Thanksgiving, the Indian way

Hello Lovely People,
It's your homeboy 'Tom Thanks' aka Nikhil here.

It's the fourth Thursday of November, the 'Thanksgiving' day. For us, it's the day when we get cheap goods at cheaper price in US. While you are busy preparing a Turkey Feast, let me take this opportunity and commemorate the day by thanking everyone who have left a mark, knowingly or unknowingly on my life.

 

Can anyone thank their parents enough? Aai-Baba (Mom-Dad) you are simply the best in the world. Whatever I am today is all because of you. Thank you Mom, for still treating me as your child, for bearing my tantrums. Trust me Mom, keeping you happy is the only thing I want to do. Dad, we miss you. Well, actually I don't, because whenever a selfish Me needs your advice, I close my eyes and you give me the answer. Your awe, prevents me from pursuing any ill-habits. Dad, you know what, Mom went for Euro trip. She had an absolute blast. Sorry, I could not fulfill that dream of your's and that scar will stay with me forever. Love you Aai, Love you Baba. Thank you for being Mine.

Thank you to all my Amigos. My laziness, fuss, silly fights, irritation has only troubled you. Ignoring all these things, you guys still chose to stick with me, I must be really lucky. Trust me friends, you are my second family. Well, not all of you, some of you are 😜 Sorry, if my Sarcasm bothered you. A Bigger Sorry, coz I won't stop.

Honestly speaking, I don't get admired easily. There are very few people who have left a lasting impression on me. A very common childhood hero of almost all of us, Bharat Ratna Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar. How many personalities do you address only with their first name? I defy calling him God, but he can't be called just a sportsperson either.  All of us still hate Steve Bucknor. Thank you Sachin for making our childhood memorable.I am afraid to say, but Cricket has almost retired for me.


There may be other Bloggers, but I am the BEST. I think this stupid line of mine should be more than enough to guess who my favorite actor is. The ever (Un)modest, ever witty and the smartest, Dr. Shah Rukh Khan. They say you taught us love, I say you taught us the persistence in Love. Self confidence that you have is impeccable .Yes, I do agree, you are the last of the Stars.


Sometimes, I am amazed that our nation required an election procedure to decide that Hon. Mr. Narendra Modi is better than 'Him'. He is indeed the best PM we ever had. Mind you, I am not his, 'Chamcha' or 'Bhakt' (Devotee) but facts prevail. We praise him because he is actually good, Opposition hates him because they cant be him. He is probably our last hope to make Mera Bharat Mahaan, again. Thank you sir for your efforts on 'Clean' India.

Who doesn't love Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam Sir? I am sure, even Science loved the Missile Man of India. Anil Bokil, Vithal Kamat, Achyut Godbole are some of the orators I love listening to. A very special mention has to be made of the entire Amte and Bang family and Sindhutai Sakpal. They can't be called just humans. We can only imagine their greatness, touch their feet and do our very small bits. Pay a visit to  LBP Hemalkasa, SEARCH,  and I promise it will change your vision towards life.

Prakash Amte and Family

A big thank you to all the farmers of our country. I am completely aware that you need more than wishes from us. We promise we would do our best to be thankful to your extreme hard work.
Naam foundation can be a good thing to start with. Writing this Blog, I am feeling so safe and sound at my home. I mustn't forget that it's only because of all the brave-hearts patrolling our country. If there is anyone you should be thankful to, it's the Armed forces of our country. Guys, least we can do is, whenever we get to see anyone from Armed forces, let's Stop and Salute them.
"It's our lives to live because it's theirs to give"

I would also like to thank  to all the people who find me uncapabable, who think that I cannot achieve something. Trust me fellows, you are my biggest motivators. I love, when my haters get to see me succeed. You guys are my Turkey on every Thanksgiving😂
Turkey Feast

Lastly I would like to thank the almighty for making this beautiful journey called Life. We, the travelers must make sure, we make it even more beautiful. Thank you Readers for patiently reading my article. Do not forget to share it with your loved ones (I don't mind haters either).

Request you all to comment the name of the person you want to Thank today.

How adventurous could cycling in mountains be?


Hello Lovely People,
It's your homeboy 'Lance Bhujbal' aka Nikhil here.
Today, I complete 2 years of my 1st Adventure trek with #YHAI.
Here is my Article that got published in #MaharashtraTimes

Is the common man really stupid? Find out...

Hello eaders,
Yes, that's intentional. I am sure you must be tired, returning from the banks after exchanging or depositing your white money (I don't want people with Black money to be my Readers😠). Disadvantages of population growth is taught in Civics Std.7 I believe, right? #Demonetization.

Friends, if you can stand in long queues for "Free" Jio Sim or to get auditioned and abused in a stupid show like Roadies, we can definitely do so for the betterment of our country. Let's co-operate as much as we can to all the Bank employees. Do help in educating the people who are unaware of the 500/1000₹ note regulations.

However, this Blog isn't about . Standing in the queue today, I saw many faces, and  I thought of writing about 'Us'. People who are most less talked of, often termed as a stupid common man.


We, the common man of this motherland are so interesting. For instance, yesterday while travelling in the train, I heard a Guy saying, 'Abhi yeh Donald Trump ka aana India k liye achcha nahiye', The other guy replied, 'Wapas Obama hi chahye tha re'.(Thank God, he didn't say Osama. Mind you, he can amend the US Constitution if he wants to). I doubt if either of them knew, who is the current Mayor of Mumbai.

Cricket: A sport that's spoken more, than played.
Tell me, haven't you heard, 'Sachin ko abhi hook marne nahi jamta'? Of course they can play it much better than him. That's still OK, I have seen Mr. Saba Karim saying this on national Televison, 'Sachin Paaji ko bhi samajhna hoga kii khelne ki ek strategy hoti hai'. What? Saba Karim is a common man too, isn't he?

Trust me, my Mom did Tika to our (New) TV in 2003 once Sachin started batting against Pak. I wish, Mom had applied Chandan too, and he would have scored 2 runs more. Damn! 'Phootbaal main woh mazza nahye re' and hence over 200 countries are stupid.

Travel with 'Us' and you'll get to know, which politician has how much 'Our' money and where. They get this information even before the minister's themselves. 'Hamare paise se humko hi Daru n Biryani' is the favorite line after participating in the rally of any minister. I think the Filmstars start dating only after our permission,'Phillam line main sabb chalta hai re'. Keeping track of their net worth is our birth right. 'Sarookh Dubai gaya hai' is known to us before Gauri.


Travel to any fort or monument and the guide will give you all the information based on his mood and not based on history. Is it necessary that every time Shah Jahan only builds Taj Mahal? Astrologers here, know much more than Astronauts. I swear, I heard Nirmal Baba asking a guy, 'Tumko dekh k Kutta kyu yaad aa raha hai?'. That man must be thinking, Why The F did I pay 3900 for? I still don't understand, why don't all the Baba Bangalis apply their Mantra's Havan's on themselves, so that 'Kripa bani rahegi'.


Go to any small village, and the most educated guy, irrespective of his degree become Hakim or Vaidya.  From Cold to Cancer, from Ache to AIDS, he has 4 types of Churans which are more than enough. The disease does vanish, if it doesn't, the patient definitely does.

It's an unending story, isn't it. Trust me guys, it was not about making fun of 'Us'. It was about the simplicity that we possess, the purity that you have in your eyes, the beauty of your heart. We all are unbelievable in so many ways. Let us all make 'Us' special and get ourselves trending on Facebook  and Twitter too. Allow me to quote Hon. Mr. Rabindranath Tagore,

'It is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be Simple'
