Blessing in disguise

As I write this post, I am in the inpatient ward of a local hospital canvalescing from a knee fracture a few days back. By God’s Grace, I am considered to be fit for discharge tomorrow.

I will miss the kind hospital staff, fellow patients and their attendants who had always been there to extend their physical help to me though my brother used to visit me once or twice daily and help physically in all possible ways whebever I needed, as usual. Despite her family commitments my sister too helped by being in the hospital for two days.

These few days kept me somewhat occupied, thanks to mobile based Internet and gadgets such as UTube.  I could derive the pleasure of listening to programmes of least importance (eg. Softrock) as well as those of most importance (eg. Devotional songs by Anup Jalota and K J Yesudas).
