Adoption - A thought...

Yeah, why should we adopt??? Does it make a difference??? Does it really help??? With hundreds of children homeless and many more to come into the world how can it make a difference at all???

Well try this out. Imagine yourself to be a 10 year old kid - alone on the streets or amongst many like you in an orphanage... what will it be that you would want the most??

Maybe or maybe not you feel what I feel. What is important is somewhere down the line, at any point in time in our life, we should do somthing that makes life beautiful for these little ones. Trust me its damn good to see that little sparkle in the eyes of these kids that can be brought about by us. Each one of us in a little way can make a big difference.

So see if you feel what i feel. Afterall World's a beautiful place and we just make it better.

Hey thanks for your comments. I have certain plans yes, but as i mentioned its a very personal choice... im using this to put in what i think of it and trying to gauge a general view of how others think about it... adoption is still not a very easily accepted concept in India... needs more leverage.

Well, this time over here to state my views over the issue.Hmm, see,if u ask me,I would be one person who would be all in favor of such an endeavor. But then one thing which I need to understand before getting into the skin of the matter is that whether what I am doing or want to do will be perpetually progressive. Would it last forever or would it just die with me in my doth. If I ever get into such a thing, I would just not let it go to death bed with me. This is my only concern. Many of the good deeds we want to do or do, just end with us. Let us think on this stratum. May be some learnings be hidden in the perspective.
But, then before I forget as usual, hats off to the noble thoughts...Keep it up...

hey mohit,
thnks for the views... well yes it is difficult to say whether it would be continues after you as well... but we cant really not do something because we r not sure if it will be continued... basically we need to start somewhere... and we never who how many ppl follow suit... im not saying all of us should adopt.. but we should definitely find our own little ways to do something for the kids... also adoption is not just about getting a kid... its about starting a family... a family knit around and with various other families in the society and their acceptance as well... so its not just abt a man and his wife but the acceptance of a lot ppl around them... a whole lot things go into adoption apart from the hundreds of legal hassels... buti think in the end its worth evreything.

This is in ref to wat Edge of Chaos has jotted down.I would like to differ on what you have said.Episodes of Mahabharta have inculcated atleast one learning into many of us,i.e. कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन .We always can aspire and then we always can put our aspirations on our personal blogs.Awz,apologies for dropping in like this.Keep blogging...

hey mr.Chaos... tnks for the comments... yeah im aware of the hassles that exist in doption... the question however is not really abt the process... but the fact of how many would actually go ahead and do it... and not if do it.. do anything for these kids... and adoption is not only an individuals decision alone a lot of entities involved in it... but im sure u have an idea of those as well... im here trying to get an idea of how most us look at it rather than propogate or push ppl to adopt... its a very personal choice... keep posting ur comments... bye

What nonsense....
This lady here can only write beautiful stuff. She has written all crap....she does nt belive in all this.... I am her X-husband.
Whenever i asked her to adopt kids, she refused saying that she has better things to do in life. She s so fake... That was the main reason why we divorced.She must be trying to impress someone here as she s looking for her 3rd marriage.... i just cant believe this nonsense .

Meaning of life cannot be captured in mere words that might be symbolized by any language. Every human Emotion is vast sequence of internal communication that forms the backend and what comes out is just an apparent and a shallow measure of vast and inexhaustable communication process....Well what am i doin' , just a mere play with words to put forth the meaning of life...well chuck it...It more of feeling and less of actions...
Let the events turn up in line with the efforts...

A nice thought and stimulating discussions..but do ppl in India see adoption as a means of improving a kids life or extending the family due to the inability to bear a child..i mean do ppl really look at it from a philathrophic angle at all?Then the question of acceptance- by ur spouse ur immediate family n society, n in time if u have ur own child then having the maturity never to discriminate..i agree its worth it ..but one has to introspect whether one can carry it off
