If I could REWIND the TIME MACHINE...




















"Time and tide waits for nobody"...how true??If at all we could reverse the saying:( Most of the times I sit and wonder if I could go back to the time when I was a small kid and was least bothered about things happening in our day to day life.No tensions,no worries,no heartbreaks,no broken memories.We grow up and we never know how time passed by.At this point of time in my life when I am reaching my mid twenties I wonder if I could go back to those days again.There have been days when I have even hurt many people as well as made many of them happy.Sometimes I wonder if I could have got a chance to correct my mistakes done during our growing years of life.Sometimes you feel you could have done some things in a much better way. Life is a play where you are the actor and the audience as well.If I ever had the power to rewind the time machine I would have paused it and gone back to my old days and tried to live again in my sweet memories correcting my mistakes making things better and expecting great results out of it which I am dreaming as something which could have been possible now.But as I said before ...time and tide waits for nobody...so why waste time until the next tide arrives??Be happy and make others happy so that you never regret anything done in your past.Forget what you have lost..forget things that you could never gain...forget the memories that hurt you.Instead create new memories by living in your present for a better future without any regrets thus not giving a chance to say this again.."If I could rewind the time machine...."

Are these signs of INSOMNIA??


Its 2.35AM.All are fast asleep.I am turning in and out of my bed struggling to get my eyes deep into the lost world of sleep.."NO NO NO"..its not the first sign of love and all that stupid crap what people say because I had already finished or I should rather say it had been a long lost stage for me by now. I checked out my inbox of my cell phone going back to some memories which created new bruises every now and then also giving me an immense pleasure each time I scrolled down.Tried hard to push aside all the memories and dig into my new fluffy pillow (which I had somehow managed to get from home)unable to bear my tiny heads weight which is soo full of nothing or trying to yell out to me "get the fucking shit outta of me ..plss.."(lucky dat pillows cant speak)I tried to lie down calm figuring the glowing stars in my room which my seniors had left for us to count in our lonely sleep deprived nights. I loved gazing out through my window to the not so lonely sky with darkness accompanied with weird creepy voices of wild creatures trying to explore the silence and ruining it. I forced myself to close my eyes into a deep sleep but my efforts were all a waste. I sat up on my bed pushing behind my pillow towards the wall and leaning onto it thinking of what I could do to survive the whole night without a sleep. I was least bothered to open up some of my books to study nor interested to do some research stuff for my thesis. I had no other option other than removing my laptop and working on it. This was the least that I could do without disturbing my roomie ( even if my typing sound would disturb her and wake her up). I managed to log intomy account in the dark room with my eyes staring like an owl into the screen going through the new posts and browsing through many communities on orkut, facebook,,log in to twitter to check out on new tweets published on my page. All these things still couldn't get back my sleep. I kinda started feeling INSOMNIAC...started dreading things most of them which I could not even fit into. Well, when I start imagining things, it can actually create wonders b'cos my imagination is beyond anybody's expectations and its always something which normal people would never do. I just wanted to write down my 'burning the midnight oil experience'.LOL!!. And here I am just going on typing down something which rather makes sense to me if not for anybody else. I guess my circadian clock has also stopped working. Bed wetting, sleep-walking or rather sleep talking would have been much better options instead of staying awake the whole night. Hoping my insomniac nights end soon or else people will find it really hard to digest my crap and comment over it(..but, please do comment as your comments can only inspire me to continue and improve on my "KID AT BLOGGING" journey.:)

when will physios get a council??

Who is a physiotherapist??What is a physios work??Will the common Indian population ever consider physios as important individuals instead of just mere massagers(which we are not)??Why such a lot of hullabaloo arises for adding Dr. as a prefix??There are so many questions which need to be answered...
Myself being a physio, I really find it unfortunate to talk about the pathetic condition that we are going through in the society.To add to this is the "still waiting for a council to be formed" thought which again frustrates being in this profession.Being a physiotherapist matters a lot...A doctor or a surgeon or a nurse, I wish if they had the basic sense to understand what a physio can do.Physiotherapy is a health care profession which sees human movement as central to the health and well being of individuals.We are skilled to use manual therapy,therapeutic exercise, electro-physical modalities keeping in mind the anatomical, physiological n bio mechanical principles of the body. Just like other degree and bachelor courses physiotherapy or a physiotherapist is the one who holds a bachelors degree of four and a half years studying the human body(especially the bone,joint and muscle system). We also assess patients by using various tests to find out any muscle, bone, ligament or nerve involved.Its not only by what the doctors advice we act.Every patient is treated after thorough assessment and then a treatment protocol is planned out according to the condition of the patient whether acute or chronic.The position of physios is very very poor in India.Physios are not treated the way they deserve to be.Physios should get the rights if not diagnosing a particular problem, but to allow them to carry on with their treatment protocol the way they find it appropriate for their patient. Depending on the doctors to refer a case to them and to worsen the situation even more by treating a patient the way doctors demand...thatz really pathetic even after studying for so many years n getting a bachelors degree just for nothing in return.If doctors had to plan a treatment protocol for the physios then there was no need for physiotherapy as a profession to exist. Doctors can themselves take up the job.Then what are we slogging so many years for?? Don't we have our own reputation? Any unskilled common man can do passive movements or active assisted or mobilisation just by watching it. But to do these things with skill after understanding the basic bio mechanical n physiological principles acting on the body you do need a physiotherapist and nobody can take a physios place for the same.
For the current scenario of physios who is suppose to be blamed? Is it the government for depriving us of a council..or is it WE-PHYSIOS who are still not interested in taking the initiative to fight for it n waiting till it gets formed on its own?? I guess the second one would me more apt if we are talking about the attitude of the physios passing out. It is our right to have a council.If nurses can have and if any other paramedic faculty can have it then why should we suffer?
Physiotherapy like any other medical profession has bachelors,masters and Phd programmes. Then why are we lagging behind in forming a council of our own? IAP is trying their level best but they have been ONLY trying from so many years with diminished hopes to survive. Nothing is working. All physios should come together and fight for the safety of our profession in the coming future. Or else I fear we will be the only ones without proper pay scale and without a reputation just working under someone for the sake of working or rather for our mental satisfaction to cover up the money spend to attain a degree. We should fight for an open referral system and a council and try to create awareness regarding our profession in all possible means. LETZ JOIN HANDS TOGETHER AND MOVE AHEAD FOR A BRIGHT AND A BETTER FUTURE!!!!!!
