My Prayer

What do I pray for?

To start with I’m not a religious person. Meaning I don’t strictly follow the religious activities, I do constantly question the practises. I don’t know whether I’m an atheist or an agnostic. But I do believe there could be some powerful entity. Could be a god, family of gods or nature.

When I was living abroad for the work purpose, I need a social interaction. That made me to visit temple every week, almost. I do consider myself a rational person, so the conventional prayers like asking the God to give this or that made no sense. After all it is an all knowing entity. Doesn’t it knows what should be given to me?

What do you pray for

Consoling a crying child

Last week, my kid fell ill. It was a viral fever with cold. Due to the intense cold, she was struggling to breathe and had ear pain. We were constantly clearing up the nasal passage and helping her with breathing. However, she was helpless with ear pain. As per the pediatrician’s instructions, we gave her a tonic to relieve her ear pain. The medicine is not a magic potion to heal instantaneously; it was slow process. Her body takes time to act on it.

What if: Google suspends your account?

Could happen to anyone

You’re waking up to your alarm. On turning the alarm off you notice there is some error notification, but you casually swipe it away to get started on the day.

While you’re commuting to your office you notice the Whatsapp backup ran into some error, now you ignore it as it’s not something important. During your tea-break in office you are opening Google Photos to look at your child’s memories. Just like earlier notifications Googl Photos too throw some error at you, now you can’t able to download the backed-up photos.
