APPRECIATION!

As I sit back on my chair, thinking where to start this blog from...zillions of ideas race across my mind... :P
But, as soon as I bend a little to type..all but for one disappear!!! - "MY FAMILY"
Been quite some time since we (my mom, dad, elder sister-Isha n Loving younger bro- Karan)were last together!!
I desperately look forward to spending some quality time with them together as well as some lone moments with each of them!! :D
I miss my Dad's so very open and unbiased views..his lessons of life..his own experiences...his hindi sayings/idioms!! ahhh! also his running behind me from bedroom to the dressing room to the studyroom-just to ensure that I have my glass of milk! :D
I miss my mom's FOOD!!! gosh! everytime i get food here..i crave for ghar ka khaana! I don't even enjoy restaurant food anymore ;) (Exception:cheese burst pizzas :P :P can have them anytime..anyday ;)but it is so very costly that I keep that ONLY as an option for my friends/brother/sister treating me or else they losing out on a bet to me! hahahaha)
I miss mummy's "roz-ki" scoldings: yahaan ni..aise ni..vaise nahi.. itne badhe ho gye phir bhi kuch ni aata.. hahahaha. I've observed that whereas my dad can go on praising any of us three(Isha karan or me), my mom on contrary hardly has a "good" thing to share about us :P :P
So, to know about a child genuinely you should ask his/her mother!! :P (that applies to my case atleast! )
I miss my sister's gossips :P we've had so much fun with stuff like that ;) + her food experiments n "junk" parties :P
I so very miss my bro for his awesome sense of humor! itnaa hasaata tha mujhe :D and his over-protective nature...though younger,he has alwayz been there as an elder bro! :)
LOVE YOU all!!!!! ALOTTTTTTTTT!!
n miss you guys soo much! :-*

I have often felt that most of us feel the same for our family, our parents; we understand well their unconditional love for us but my question is what do we do in return to this? Do we take out some time just to tell our parents how much they mean to us?? Have you ever told your Dad that "You are the best dad!!" or your mother ," You cook amazing food!!" ?? How many times have you hugged your brother/sister saying you love him/her? Have you ever told your teacher, "Sir/Maam today's lecture was amazing! This couldn't have been taught in a better way!" ??
I do!!
and I expect the same from all of you...it's not called "buttering" the other person, this for me is appreciationg others!! expressing what you feel for the other person! :)
(I have often encountered people who say that I "butterofy" my teachers/parents alot! but that does not hurt me..that doesnot put me down or force me to stop praising them, because whatever I say is what I strongly feel for! rather I feel sorry for the ones who come up and say stuff like that! sorry guys, that leaves me undeterred!! :D)
This is one of my key principles of life: LEARN TO APPRECIATE PEOPLE!
Do take out some time to make your dear ones feel a little special at times. They DESERVE it! :)
Trust me, it takes a second to give your feeling a word but it lasts with the other person FOREVER!!
** Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well! **
