Two lives

 All of us live two lives... First one everyone knows... Second one, we start living only when we suddenly realise that we've only one life and it's about to be over. Trust me, our second life is very enjoyable and very fruitful. We suddenly become very magnanimous and forgiving. We suddenly realise the importance of family and friends in our life. We develop deep understanding of the world around us and we also start appreciating the nature, birds and animals around us. We start respecting food and love eating fruits. And yes, we start practicing omnism...  recognising and respecting all religions and their gods. Col Pradeep Pendyala🙏🏼🙏🏼

Virtuous Cycle

 Twelve years ago, when I joined Facebook, my wife didn't approve of it ... My own son didn't like it. I was about to retire from my army life and I was not sure what I would be doing after my retirement. But after joining Facebook, I met people like Ampat Koshy  sir and Archna Pant ma'am who were exemplary in their English and Hindi respectively. Meeting them online was the turning point in my life. I developed a passion for English as well as for Hindi. I started reading serious literature which I had never done earlier. My English and Hindi considerably improved. And a virtuous cycle began in my life. There were chain of events in my life which I never dreamt of earlier... One desirable event leads to another... And that's what is a virtuous circle🙏🏼🙏🏼Col Pradeep Pendyala, Professor of Anaesthesiology, ASRAM Medical College, Eluru, India

Saviours

 Always standing behind you

Always watching over you

Always feeling your pulse, hear you breathe and watch your heartbeats

Though, the devils want to take you 

When I'm there with you

Devils dare not venture

I'll take your hand 

I'll make you walk again

I'll make you smile again

We'll climb every mountain

We'll swim every ocean

When I'm there as your shadow

When I'm there as your saviour

Always as an Anesthesiologist...Col Pradeep Pendyala🙏🏼🙏🏼

Chutzpah

 Let me talk about Chutzpah ( pronounced as hutspuh...c is silent 🙂). Synonyms are nerve, gall and audacity.  You need nerve. You need self-confidence. You need boldness. You need audacity. You need all these things to be happy and also successful. And that's what is Chutzpah... all about🙏🏼🙏🏼Col Pradeep Pendyala
