And I am privileged to have them with me
It was a special day, the 50th birthday and what would have been the best way to celebrate it other than taking blessings from who brought me to this world. And more importantly, I must say, I am privileged to have them by the blessings from God - fit and fine. Mom is quite the inspiration - even today I wonder, from where she gets so much energy. She prepared some of my favorite food which reminded me my childhood. That time we were not going anywhere, it was all a family affair and she would do her best to have some nice food at home, that will be offered to God first and then served.
We never celebrate our birthday in any grand way. Rather it has always been a close family affair with taking blessings from God and having some good food prepared at home. For me, they are my living God - their blessings definitely has shaped my life well - not in terms of assets or money. I don't have lot of money or bought any asset, but I have them and a lovely family with two lovely kids, who are quite the inspiration to live for. The mental peace that comes from caring for them is invaluable. Do you think, we will stay this long with our kids ? May be or may be not, but what's more important is that our exit from this world should be a happy exit. The entry does not matter , but the ending does. If we can give them a happy ending, then their blessings will help us to have ours. Often people ignore their parents and I must tell you that their blessings definitely helps you to have a peaceful life, so if you have not still realized, then you should wake up. In today's busy life, don't forget that they are your origin, and have some dedicated time for them.
They need a little but that little too much - your presence, your involvement to make them feel that you care for them. Look at him, I am certain you can feel his happiness when I am there. We had a family function very recently (will post about it), and the house was full of guests with all of us present. But then after everyone left, they were feeling lonely, and waiting for me. Mom worked so hard that she did not realize where she hurt her ankle. So I took her to the doctor and have everything checked, and apparently its all good. Six months back she developed some kidney issues and constant check up and medicine has helped her to come out of that - and of course all the mental support. The doctor has given her a ankle binder along with some vitamins that will fix her ankle problem.
Before I wrap up this I must tell you an interesting fact. She knew palmistry so well that, she could predict very accurately about anyone's life. But then she never saw our hand and left palmistry in the fear that, if some day she sees our hand (out of curiosity) and finds something bad then she cannot live with that. Instead she quit palmistry and since then prays God for our well beings. And she is well educated from her time and had two three govt jobs offered, but she did not go for them, instead she spent all the time on us - teaching us and taking care of us. That's a Mother - we will never be able to compensate for what she has done, but certainly we must do our best to live to our conscience.
