“The survival of the fittest” game began from the WOMB itself……..


One fine day was just thinking about my life and was wondering that how I have lead a mechanical life of always running to catch something or to achieve something.

The mantra – survival is given as a upadesh to us right from our mom’s womb. The moment you are conceived your game for survival begins….

This thought takes me back to those warm times when I was in my mom’s womb….say some 28 yrs ago…….

Me , my parents, doctors and all concerned people thought that I would stay in the cozy atmosphere for 9 months….

Alas mother nature had some other plans sketched for me. She ordered me to enter the world when I just spent 7 months in my mom’s womb….and winked at the nurse on 20th Aug, 1982

Now this was surely a surprise package for my parents.

My survival game started as I was put in an incubator for about 2 months so that my body can grow till I was 9 months old.

Lots of speculations were going around about my survival…..will he make it or wont???

I could hear them all and was helpless as I really couldn’t do anything but to be left in the hands of nature to decide………

Wow..some times I feel people are more concerned about the gossips of other households than minding their own business…probably that’s why human is known to be a social animal….longing for gossips always!!!!

Every mother would wish to feed their own child, so did my mom wished the same, but again the greater mother – mother nature did not like this wish. I was fed in a different way…it looked like some circus trick or some experiment of Guinea Pig. Cotton balls were dipped in the milk and was squeezed gently such that the milk drops went thru my nose and then entered my stomach……strange …isn’t it???

Visitors weren’t allowed to meet me as the doctors feared I would contract some infection….holy cow dint know whether I should consider myself as VVIP or ACHUT (untouchable) where people couldn’t meet me till I was 1 yr old

Well with all those tricks….today I stand b4 people as a hefty, thick skinned guy as against some generous peoples speculation of my survival…..guess rather they could have placed a bet in a horse race or some shares….they would have atleast won it…..

This LEO preferred to win than see others win!!!!

I some times still wonder what was Natures intention behind all these………….but I guess certain questions remain unanswered in life!!!!!!!!
