Dont be afraid to fly


Dreams are our ticket to experience a whole new world which we long to be in.
As a young kid we all had a dream to become a doctor, and then ,when we went to school we wanted to be a teacher, when we went to see the circus we wanted to be a joker and it kept changing frequently as our minds wished.

Adulthood changes all the rules of life. We can't be naive anymore. The world out there can be big and bad and we always have to live by the sword. The flip side of that can be- we can get cut easily. Dreaming gives us a chance to be a kid again. In our dreams we can be anyone and still noone judges us. Dreaming and hoping are the two feelings we must hold near to our heart and not let them slip at any point of time.

Many people are afraid to take the lead and want to follow all the time. They can lead but are afraid if they go wrong, then what? But if you keep thinking of the consequences, you will never be able to get anything done in the first place, forget about failing or succeeding. When life offers you to take the lead, grab it. Treat that opportunity as your wings and learn to fly. To go someplace, you have to start somewhere. You might fall, get hurt. Everybody does. Dont give up. Not yet, Never. Like Maya Angelou says - We may encounter many defeats, but we must not be defeated. Even if you fall for n number of times. Get up, and keep going. And the only place to go is - ahead. Eventually you will get there ,with your hardwork and gumption.

As is rightly quoted by Earl Nightingale -

"Never give up on your dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway."

The only roadblock which is difficult to cross is yourself. When everybody else believes in you ,its only you who doesn't believe in your ability. So trust yourself and all other things will fall in place.

If you would like to be generous please go full throttle.

My dad has always taught me to be generous without hesitation. When I was younger, I never understood what he meant by that. All I saw was my mum and dad working hard to make a good life and helping people in need without thinking twice and without any hesitation. All the relatives and friends never used to think twice when they were in trouble as they knew all they had to do was - ask, and my parents would be there for them, sometimes giving a cash favour and on more occasions being there in person and giving their time and energy to help and just be there in other peoples moment of difficulty. The enthusiasm which they had was unmatched. He always told me that you never give away things which you no longer need. That's not the way to give. That is not being generous. It's just discarding all those things you no longer need. He then used to encourage me to give things which I was still using and were good to give. The things which are not good to be used by you are n...

Dad flying to London, made history!

My dad is aviophobic and so when he reached London, I heaved a sigh of relief. My parents were visiting my kid brother who is put up in London since last four years. He had been asking them to visit him since he shifted there. However it always felt on dads deaf ears. My dad has become a little bit socially awkward since past couple of years. He wasn't always like that though. I mean yes, he never liked to travel a lot. His definition of travel meant a twenty minutes ride to my place to meet his granddaughters. Apart from these visits he makes a couple of rounds to the doctors office and once in a blue moon visits his relatives and friends after a lot of pestering from mum. My mum likes to travel a lot. She is ever so excited about exploring new places. So this time around too dad had made it very clear that as he is scared of flying he wont join mum on her visit to London. My mother had to remind him that British Airways will be taking care of the flying part and all he h...

Not losing my mojo of parenting...the referee saga.

When you have a child you become a parent, when you have two you become a referee. And it is so true. In an argument which involves your kids it is always in your best interest to not take sides. As there is no right side in their argument. You can never know who started the fight and everytime you think you have found the culprit, you are so wrong, it directly sends you deep down the rabbit hole. The fight starts with my two daughters and somehow along the way they manage to get me involved in it. The two of them start the quarrel and by the end of it, there is no conclusion but a third unwanted member to the quarrel. How do kids manage to create problems to which there are no solutions is absolutely beyond me. No,Wait. There is a glitch here. The mother who gives most of her time and energy in solving the mess always ends up wrong. And a villan. And then there is another person whose analytical and problem solving skills suddenly become important. The entry of the hero. Daddy...
