Being Father…IV
I was thinking that, how children are good in convincing…?
Today morning when I told my elder daughter that we are
thinking to celebrate your birthday. Now you are going to complete 8 years, you
are grown-up.
She started telling me “ Dad, you know I want a room full of
toys, Chocolates , Dolls and whatever you wish along with this, I am ok”.
I said “I will give you gift of my choice not of yours”.
She Said “Ok, You know Dad now a day, children get gifts
like i-pod, Laptops, palm-top and video-games, you tell me what you are getting
for me, I am ok with that”.
You think this way or that way…..my demands are clear. This
message is loud & clear from my daughter’s statement.
For the kids, life is fun and they really enjoy it well. You
may be in your stress but they do not think like you. They are comfortable and
live every moment full of Joy without having worries about tomorrow’s school,
homework or anything else.
While I was doing this discussion with my elder daughter,
younger one (She is just 20 Month old) was busy with the Glass (half filled of
water) & Spoon. She was giving spoon full of water one after other. Without
being a part of this conversation, but if you do not take this water in your
hand she was really getting annoyed. The kids make life so easy, relax and
spontaneous that not only they enjoy every moment but surroundings around them
and also become joyful.
Their smile and cute acts make your all worries out of your
mind. Smile comes on your face and life become so easy (May be for few moments
only).
If you just think…..How
simple is to make our life like a kid, joyful, cherished. Just do not worry
about tomorrow and don’t remember the past. That’s it!!!
Try this out some
time! It is really fun and relaxing.
Wow ....such a clear view of life from the lens of a child..., if we can even apply 10% of it , I am sure that we can be a much better human being than we are today..Great Amol ..keep them coming
