TRUE HORROR !!
True Horror, which took place last month. This happened about a month ago near Lonavala. A guy was driving from Mumbai to Pune and decided not to take the new expressway as he wanted to see the scenery.
The inevitable happens and when he reaches the ghats his car breaks down - he's stranded ,miles from nowhere. Having no choice he starts walking on the side of the road ,hoping to get a lift to the nearest town. It's dark and raining. And pretty soon he's wet and shivering.

The night rolls on and no car goes by, the rain is so heavy he can hardly see a few feet ahead of him. Suddenly he sees a car coming towards him.
It slows and then stops next to him -without thinking the guy opens the door and jumps in.
Seated in the back, he leans forward to thank the person who had saved him.- When he realizes there is nobody behind the wheel!!!
Even though there's no one in the front seat and no sound of any engine, the car starts moving slowly. The guy looks at the road ahead and sees a curve coming. Scared almost to death he starts to pray, begging the Lord for his life.
He hasn't come out of shock, when just before he hits the curve, a hand appears through the window and moves the wheel! The car makes the curve safely and continues on the road to the next bend. The guy, now paralyzed in terror,watches how the hand appears every time they are before a curve and moves the steering wheel just enough to get the car around each bend.
Finally, the guy sees lights ahead.
Gathering his courage he wrenches open the door of the silent, slowly moving car, scrambles out and runs as hard as he can towards the lights.
It's a small town.He stumbles into a dhaba, and asks for a drink, and breaks down. Then he starts talking about the horrible experience he's just been through.
There is dead silence in the dhaba when he stops talking .................................................
and that's when Santa and Banta Singh walk into the dhaba. Santa Points and says "Look Banta - that's the weird guy who got into our Car when we were pushing it."-- "

Too Busy and yet...
Well, life has suddenly become so busy.being a homemaker i have to take care of a number of things myself.Mine is a nuclear family.In-laws are here rite now and i suddenly find myself on these frequent trips to the hospital where both of them are being treated.
So here i am running in and out of the hospital almost every second day.Though their conditions are not serious,just a routine check-up for fil but mil requires a new set of dentures ,so we have to go there every alternate day coz it will require atleast 6 to 7 sittings.Its tiring for both of us.
Apart from all this my frequent visits to the hospital will soon start.The very thought fills me with a sense of apprehension and curiosity.At home thanks to my maid ,thing are pretty much in control. Hubby dear is so busy with his office workload that i cant ask him to give more time,though he is very supportive.
But all this exercise has made me realize that yes I can be independent too.After our marriage I had become too dependent on my husband and he had no problems in taking care of things himself.Well, in the process I guess I lost my confidence in myself,although earlier i was quite an independent individual who was responsible for her own actions and decisions.
I guess life teaches u a new lesson everyday but it is up to U to decode it.And this is where your upbringing ,values as well as your attitude towards life can be seen.I keep going through these phases of depression but eventually I come out of it with my faith in myself and GOD intact.Iguess for me ,it is only possible due to my positve attitude towards life and my belief that
"EVERY CLOUD HAS A SILVER LINING"
