Annual Eid celebrations

Clearly, the main activity of the annual Eid celebration remains attending a relative's residence. On this particular occasion, relatives make sure to see each other at home.  They are amused by a wide variety of dishes. The sweet flavour of the most significant meal, sewai , seems to be blending with joy and celebration. Even so, traditional recipes are significantly altered for the celebration.  During a visit to a relative's home, it became more apparent that not only did the dishes on the table resemble those of a five-star hotel, but also...  The golden-coloured cutlery placed on the table created the illusion of an upscale hotel. Each item placed on the table served as a reminder of the refined and opulent way of life.

Brainy grandson


Undoubtedly, children are no longer daft in their early age. The immediate cause of this distinctive fact remains easy exposure to the things that absolutely enhance their brain's power during the young age. 

How satisfying it was, then, to see them in applying their minds at every steps. Thus, they return to show their intelligence. 

It is  a sort of grown-up take on the forward look. The only thing more often missing remains perhaps that they do not  seem to show that much desired feelings to elders.

In the past days, the little ones used to talk with their grandparents but now mobile has changed the course. Today, they prefer TV than talk with the grandparents. This is the stark fact of the modern time.

When a grandmother asked her grandson to come and converse with her, he did not mind to say: Should I watch TV as sleep was far from my reach? Very innocently he told his grandmother as he did not take interest in talk. The mobile relaxed him more. Thus, his unwillingness to talk was persisting.

But he did not annoy his grandmother and remain indulged in talking to her. His swift query was: Grandma, will we always remain six people, you, mom, dad, sister, me and my cat...?

Grandma  replied: No my dearest son, the doggy is also coming for you tomorrow, so it will be seven...! Upon this revelation he replied: The dog will eat the cat, then we will again be six! Experienced Grandma solaced him by saying that once you got married, we will be seven again...!

Taxing his mind he went on to say: Sister will go away and get married, then it will be six...! Grandma- Then you will have a son, with becoming seven once again. Further, what he happened to utter only brought ire to his grandmother. His words were by then you will be dead.. we will be back to six.

Finding no appropriate answer aged lady had to react angrily: You go... just watch TV..!
