It's all your fault

 How many times do you hear it and tell it to your spouse. Some of the clever ones - like me may not tell it loud. But the feeling is always there.
   Let us give take some examples. The dress you are wearing is not clean. Spouse did not wash it properly or did not instruct the maid to wash it cleanly. You do not have a clean pressed shirt. She is too eager to put the clothes for washing. But never irons.  Why should she wash it so frequently? And after all, who will buy the detergent?. Her dad?
  On the other side, your dress is not so nice looking. He did not come with you to buy the dress, so you were all alone and bought something which is not so nice. Or even worse, he came with a long face and was unresponsive.
   You are having problems at your office. What else could be the reason? You had a fight at home. So you were irritable. And started a fight. With the boss! If only your spouse had not fought with you at home, all these difficulties would not have arisen.
    Your vehicle is having starting trouble. Your spouse will not take it to repair. He says you should learn to be independent. But where do you have time? Why can't he be more co-operative?
   So your list (my list as well ) can grow on and on and on. It does not? You do not blame your spouse ? Either you are a very good lair or  are an exception to the community called married people. Hats off to you!

Bharatha - 2. UrdhvaRoma

I wanted to write about Karna as my part 2 of Bharatha because he is the real tragic hero of MahaBharatha. But net is filled with writings about him. So let me write about little known son of Arjuna called Urdhvaroma. And I don't want to write as twisted tale but as I have heard it from my Yankatte (atte - aunt). Yankatte was my mother's aunt and she was widowed in childhood. She would spend some time in my granny's house and some time in her husband's house. She would tell us all beautiful stories. UrdhvaRoma was a son of Arjuna (I think. Or may be Bhima's son. I don't remember clearly. ) He was living in the forest. One day when he was practicing archery, Arjuna and Krishna were passing by. Krishna indicated Arjuna to hide and watch. This boy shot an arrow to a large tree. And all the leaves of the tree fell down except for 5 and a half leaves. Krishna and Arjuna came forward and asked him what was all this about. The boy told " After few years there wi
