Re: # 6 I think such trees of hatred are very tough to hue down. The best one can do is to ignore.
I often think about thousands of such abandoned kids. What if they get a chance to meet his/her mother one day? How will that abandoned person react? It is very, very difficult to fathom.

Thanks for stopping by :)

To confront someone who has poisioned ur life, especially if it is someone with whom you have a blood relation, is an extremely painful situation. i beieve_Its a moment of battle between mind and memory__where memory of old tortures act like a sharp dagger inserting & injuring present consciousness of the sufferer.If someone gets this chance of confrontation and of catharsis its a great oportunity.Not everyone gets it __not everyone can get over it and start feeling light. However i am really looking for tips to cut down such poison trees, residingin our mind, which although were seeded by bad attitudes of our loved ones but are ofcourse nourished by our on hatred.

Re: # 4 I agree with you, this story is a bit filmi... like it is based on the conincidence. But then we all experience certain things in life that are either based on miracles or conincidences :)

Nice story but a bit filmi though to be honest, chances of someone who has grown up in an orphanage meeting their real parents are very slim.

This story seems so real .It happens everywhere; exactly a year ago, on 14th of August, someone dumped a baby boy in the drain in our street. We have been living here since 22 years and nothing of sort ever happened so that shocked us all.

I liked the theme of this story... it is very poignant, as far the way it has been put together is fine… I think it could have been better.

Oh my God this is so touching. A girl meeting her real mother who had abandoned her as a baby and left her to die in a heap of trash... very interesting concept.

Keep writing nice thought provoking pieces like these.
