In Remembrance of Our Dear Friends

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 10:53:00 +0000

There were times when our strength failed,

When we complained, 'We can't',

When we felt life's burden heavy.

But your warm and sooting touch,

Your kind words that meant so much,

And your confident eyes which said 'You Can',

Did recharge our spent spirits.

Thus you made us feel wanted and loved

And helped us discover how much we counted.

But when we parted - eyes filled, hearts outpouring,

We could just sound a sigh

And you only said 'Good Bye'.

Even now it rings in our ears

Inspite of the fraction of year-

A word that refuses to die,

That unforgettable 'good bye'.

L.T. FACIES

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 10:45:00 +0000

1. Facies Attentiva - They see, they hear, they comprehend.

2. Facies Semi Attentiva - They see, they hear, but do not comprehend, either due to a
lack of effort or I.Q.

3. Facies Anti-Attentiva - To see, hear or comprehend goes against the grain of their
morality.

4. Facies Honesta - They leave the L.T. as blank-faced as they had come in.

5. Facies Pretenda - They smile when the teacher smiles & nod when the teacher
expects them to, while they stifle a yawn all the while.

6. Facies ZZZ                                     -        These night birds catch up on their beauty sleep in class.
   Generally they manage to nap, unobserved unless their
   snores become too loud to ignore..

Something to THINK About....

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 09:09:00 +0000

The paradox of our time in history is that

we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers;

Wider freeways, but narrower view points;

we spend more, but have less,

we buy more, but enjoy less.

We have bugger houses and smaller families;

more conveniences, but less time;

we have more degrees, but less sense;

more knowledge, but less judgement;

more experts, but more problems;

more medicines, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too seldom, watch TV too much and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

We talk too much, love too seldom and hate too often.

We've learnt hoe to make a living, but not a life;

We've added years to life, not life to years...

We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbour. We've conquered outer space, but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things; We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul; We've split the atom, but not our prejudice; we write more, but learn less. We've learnt to rush, but not wait; We've higher incomes, but lower morals; We have more food, but less appeasement; We've become long on quantity, but short on quality.

These are the times of fast foods & slow digestion; tall men and short character; steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare; more leisure but less fun, more kinds of food but less nutrition.

These are the days of two incomes, but more divorces; of fancier houses but broken homes. These are the days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies and pills that do everything from cheer to quiet to kill.

It is the time when you can choose either to make a difference or just turn the page...

Harry Potter MBBS

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 08:24:00 +0000

The big Harry Potter fan that I am, I am surprised to find that medical colleges bear more than a passing resemblance to Hogwarts, the ancient school of witchcraft and wizardry. In December 2001, the World Health Organization announced a global outbreak of Harry Potter fever. Seven strains have been reported so far - all originating in Britain. It gripped the entire world; a few not having the time to read up on the subject, took the flash card approach and saw the movie instead. As the scenes unfolded before my eyes, I was amazed at how J K Rowling's tale of the boy wizard was in fact an allegory for the journey of a modern medical student.

The similarities are uncanny. The journey starts with applying to magical, er, medical college. Now cracking the PMT often feels as difficult as finding platform nine and three quarters at King's Cross station. Some people say that it is too difficult a task, but it can be done by believing in yourself, working hard, and learning from others. Oh, and it also "helps if you get a running start."For some, good results will arrive furiously. While some parents will be "proud to have a witch in the family," Others may believe that the magic system is a "load of old tosh" and want their children to choose another Muggle profession.

Time to pick up supplies :

Letter in hand, it is now time to pick up supplies but where to shop? Diagnosis Alley, of course. Once there, it is necessary to procure the proper equipments, a wand & robes of course. It goes without saying that some schools will not let students bring their own stethoscopes or flying brooms until second year. The Littman Cardio III, it seems, is comparable to the Nimbus 2000.

Classes soon begin, and students learn a diversity of subjects ranging from the effects of Potions (Pharmacology) to the Defence Against Dark (Microbiology). Learning to fly a broom and handling a scalpel require patience and dexterity. After a while, apprentices take their skills to the field. Some of them treat it as a high flying game like Quidditch , competing across the pitch of the clinic. They chase after the elusive golden snitch: the winning diagnosis.

Student quickly realise that they have entered a new realm. Long white cloaks or black robes ensheathe the acolyte. They learn a new vocabulary, struggling to pronounce the magic words correctly (a-TAX-ee-yah, teh-lan-gee-ec-tay-see-AH). Experiences desensitise the learner to what was previously so ghastly and ghoulish. Looking over us is the Ministry of magic, the self - regulating body for wizards.

"It is not our abilities that show what we truly are... it is our choices" :

At some point, Harry and his friends must focus on a particular brand of magic; we too must make such difficult career decisions, and the choice to be made is to work hard. In some mysterious way, personality and experience also contribute to our selection of a specialty. The best we can do is listening to the voice of our internal Sorting Hat before blurting out to the world which path we have chosen. Despite these differences in career and character, medical students bond through shared experiences. As JK Rowling so wisely remarks, " There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other, and knocking out a 12 foot mountain troll is one of them."

Perhaps I am stretching this a bit foo far. Perhaps I am trying to conjure something out of thin air. Still, Harry Potter has taught me the danger of carelessly waving our wands. He has also demonstrated the positive impact that caring can have on the lives of others : just as Harry freed the captive and lonely snake from its glass cage, I too will use empathy and understanding to heal.

And that, indeed, is something magical!

Friends of A Lifetime !

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 08:20:00 +0000

Somewhere down time, on a busy day,

I made good friends; who are to stay.

The six of them I VALUE so much,

Only death will take them from me, away.

TOLERANCE, doctors' my blood down cool,

Ensuring I make not me; a fool.

"Not all will think the way you think" he says,

"Bear in mind this; a Golden rule".

Lord JUSTICE, who courts a balanced mind,

Gives me his counsel; wise & kind,

"Treat all men & women on their merits & deeds,

And protect the innocent & weak; of mankind."

TRUTH & HONESTY are cousins close,

More than friends they appear to be my foes,

They're checking me every single hour,

Keeping me alert & on my toes.

And PATIENCE is a funny guy.

He always tells me "Please stand by.

No point in jumping here & there,

You'll end up broken; wanting to cry"

Of all; my love for LOVE, Stands apart,

He's taught me, caring & sharing is smart,

I surrender to him 'cause that's what he says,

"It pays to have a Golden Heart"

Life is a passage; a day or two,

Such friends will keep on telling you.

In sorrow or in gay; alike,

"Don't worry. We'll stay to see you through"

God has not promised
Skies always blue,
Flower strewn pathways,
All our life through.
God has not promised
Sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow,
Peace without pain
But God has promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labour
And Light for the way.

Reversing The Brain Drain

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 07:52:00 +0000

Hundreds of thousands of our qualified youngsters take off from different international airports every year for higher studies or highly lucrative jobs in the US, the UK, Germany, France and Australia. And most of these Indians prefer to settle down abroad, attracted by the facilities and the higher quality of life provided by these countries. We have been crying hoarse about the Brain Drain from India over the last five decades but, without going in for a well-set blueprint to check this counter-productive phenomenon. Some of the public schools, our IITs, IIMs and the medical colleges are providing world class education. One might wonder that having spent a lot on infrastructure, training and other facilities and the best teaching staff, can the Government and the people of India look away as the talent, assiduously nurtured in India, is utilised by other countries for their development and excellence in varied fields?

Critics ask that when other developed countries provide higher facilities, pay packages and perks, how can you dissuade our youngsters from going abroad? What has been our loss has been the gain of the countries where our youth has migrated. Examples of Kalpana Chawla, the 1st Indian-American woman astronaut in space, Nobel laureates in Physics and Medicine namely Dr. S Chandra Shekhar and Dr. Hargobind Khurana respectively are evident in this case.

During this decades - long debate on Brain Drain, it has been stated that our youngsters leave India because excellence is neither recognised nor rewarded in India. But this is only partly true now, as things have changed today and talented people can reach the highest position possible, provided they are prepared to work hard.

Youngsters from India-whatever be the field they are working in-are today suitably recognised as well as rewarded. Take the field of sports where many of the celebrities are household names - Sania Mirza, Sachin Tendulkar, Saina Nehwal, Abhinav Bindra and several others. India proudly sits on position one in milk production in the world. Thanks to Dr. Varghese Kurien, the father of White Revolution.

A top engineer who completed the Konkan Railway in record time, Mr. E Sreedharan has built up the world class Delhi Metro. Take the story of the Ambani brothers, the Tatas, the Mittals and others who have left their footprints in different continents.

The IITs and IIMs have earned a place of pride in our specialised learning system. With state of the art speciality hospitals emerging in different parts of India, patients from abroad find that complicated surgeries could be conducted in India at a relatively lower cost. If doctors and specialists find the going good in their own country, why would they go abroad? When India can stand good in comparison with the other developed countries in all the varied fields, the youth in India would eventually find that working in their own country is more rewarding than working elsewhere in the world. And even if they go abroad to better their specialisation, I believe, that they would want to return home and pursue a life of their own choice, without surrendering the traditional family ties and the nourishing Indian values.

After all, a home is a home and not all the wealth in this world can buy the happiness that your home and country can give.

A Perfect Lifestyle

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Sat, 30 Apr 2011 07:37:00 +0000

Do you know the recipe for a perfect lifestyle?

In this world full of sorrow,
Where no one knows of tomorrow.
Where troubles await in large rows,
With less of friends & more of foes.
The only thing we can do,
Is to face what is true!
A smile on the face is what we chiefly need,
Cheers & laughter are very good indeed.
If times are bad, courageously hope.
Await the better, don't give up hope.
With this attitude, a day will come,
You will be what you want to become.

"STOP EXISTING, START LIVING"

This is the recipe of a perfect lifestyle.
Let it happen, whatever happens.

SMILE! SMILE! SMILE!
