Just about...being a "Father"

A new world greeted them with smile and happiness when they... "Just met" and soon for them the wedding bells rang...

Now, they are happily lost in their own world & together are learning to set-
up a 'Home’ of their own... away from what was a home for them a little earlier in the year....That's "his" daughter & "his" son in-law.
..Being very adorable, the house has become little less chirpy after her moving out…..
…."He" now does feel the boredom...but will never show it off...
Because "he" is the father ...and expected to put on a stern face & always remain a 'matter of fact' person.....

He is all set to explore & build-up a learning curve that may see him well in life in about a couple of years from now. After his graduation he may probably start living away from home in a distant land in pursuit of excellence...That's "His" son
Being the darling of the house, "he" is sure to miss him but will never come to express it...
Because "he" is a father...and is expected to remain a strict disciplinarian......

Long years away from today..."he" did not fall in love nor had "he" ever met her. However, "he" was married to her because their horoscopes matched .They do remain poles apart on temperaments... but they get on famously together...That's his wife and "his" life companion.
Now, whenever she takes a short vacation to be with her parents..."he" does miss her a lot but will never speak it out...
..Because "he" is a father of their two grown up children...and expected not to show any emotions...

"He" never could have gone through the different & difficult phases of life with a reassuring calmness... and this "he" owes it to them..."his" parents...who are always there to remind "him" that staying positive makes life little more comfortable and little less harassing......
Now whenever "he" finds himself little helpless.... "he" feels very reluctant to ask their advice...
Because now "he" is a 'father' of their two grown-up grand children...and therefore expected to be Worldly 'wise'...

Being simply a living mortal even "he" has the right to’ ‘cry’, right to feel ‘helpless’ and at times may be even get ‘scared’ of “darkness”…but "he" has to rise above this because now "he" is FATHER.. and …his children will always look up to "him" as their 'shield and anchor’.
For a child a “FATHER” will always remain the learning curve…for.. 'a dignified and a quality life’ and I know that ...because I am a father too..!

May 'God' give every ‘CHILD’ a ‘FATHER’...Who is Loving, Caring and always there …with smile and confidence to make his child say “MY DADDY STRONGEST..!

MY MODISTORY

  I am one among 900  million plus    "nuts and bolts" of our  Democracy , who   become "faceless" faces in the crowd after  every 5 years.  Year 2014 election was in every sense historic It was beyond doubt a landslide victory for BJP and the beginning of  the so called "MODI" Raj  In year 2014 my reason and my josh for  casting my vote for  BJP was "Modi". His speeches were "sparkling confidence" that set ablaze the confidence of  the nation that was trying to rise up from the cesspool of corruption   Looking back now after 11 years I realise that year 2014 was also  the beginning of era called   "Political Branding" that would  covert  a "politician" into a larger than life  "Mega Leader" Perhaps that is the reason that today in politics "anti-incumbency" does not matter at all . Here are  in brief  a Common man's  bunch of thoughts on "Modi Story". These ...

CLARITY IN CHAOS

  The Bhagavad Gita is a living scripture  universally relevant  today as it was 5000 years ago in the battlefield of Kurukshetra. It is a divine conversation that took place in the battlefield of Kurukshetra  between two best  friends, Lord Krishna the Charioteer and Arjuna the warrior.  'Bhagavad Gita' is an integral part of of Indian mythology  I have always believed mythology is not for everyone including me.  So when my friend, the author of the book  "Understanding Bhagavad Gita", gave me a  copy to review , I was not very comfortable.  I like  'Arjuna'  started looking for excuses . However one day not very soon , "The Recipe For A Better Life " the part of the title  hooked me into reading it The author has covered the essence of 'Gita' inside the  160 pages, through   eighteen Chapters.  Every chapter has an "Introduction", a "Summary" and a "Reflection" The simplicity of his writing gives...
