The Potter And The Clay Marvel

Here, while sharing the load and transferring the abilities in the progenies about the sharing of loads in the household chores and activities, I would begin by citing an example of the potter and the clay, where the potter is the elder individual in the family and children are the clay. The potter holds the clay and gives it the direction and moulds it, and the clay gets moulded in the fashion that the potter aspires and desires to have for the clay he is designing and moulding. In the similar fashion the child gets moulded upon seeing the acts and behaviour of the elder individuals in the family and thus the actions have to to be properly guided in order to bring up a generation that would understand the need of sharing the responsibilities equally and taking up the tasks without holding any prejudices.

What we often come to see is that the household activities are largely being seen as the responsibilities of the women, and such prejudices are being passed in the future generations as well. They too think on the same lines that girls should take up the household responsibilities no matter if they are working or not, or busy with some other work elsewhere. These are all due to lots of prejudices prevailing in the society as to teach the girls all of the household activities so that she can take of her family marriage such as to cook food, laundry, and related activities.

It is important to address the issue as soon as possible and thus create better individuals of the children coming up in the society. It is high time we realize that women hold equal role and position in the society and thus should not be burdened with unnecessary and vague responsibilities when they can be shared among the family members and the work- load can be efficiently divided and taken up by all the individuals in the family which shall lessen the work pressure on the ladies in the house. The need of the hour is breakdown the stereotypes in the society, take a strong stand and set up strong examples in the society which shall lead to healthy upbringing of the coming generations because children by seeing, imitating and following their elders in the family. The first learning of the children starts at home, and care should be taken that the right teachings and learnings are carried forward.

Thus, it is essential to learn the potter and his clay marvel to implement in our daily lives, because that we how we assume and shape ourselves, and others.

The #fantastico passion guide!

Life is filled with huge amount fun and frolics, depending on how one perceives it. Passion is something that one installs into one’s own life according to the wishes and aspirations. These cannot be imposed or pushed. I would call passion as something pious as no one could ever and would never have control over it for someone else as other things. We human beings can be controlled and bounded for rather anything except this divine thing called passion.

Having a passion and being passionate about something is really an amazing experience. We need to develop and formulate ourselves towards this passion that would make us complete for our own satisfaction.

To this date, there have been things that I am so passionate about. Few of them being: 

Life

Life is something that has a huge flow and continued to teach with each passing moment. The moments that life has offered and served on the platter are the actual and real life experiences, quite different from reel life. We all as individuals need to accept the reality and the truth of life, and make our best efforts to make it accountable to our own selves, and hold ourselves responsible for our lives, for we are the creators of our own destiny. I would love to make my life beautiful and amazing.

Creativity

Towards stepping into the unknown has always been my aim-line and falling into the pits and facing the downfalls several times before actually leading into something desirable is how I define creativity for myself. It has its amazing charm and brings the immense happiness to me and others around me. Failures in the path have never deterred me and instead have motivated me to take the essential risks which would ultimately be guided towards success through failures and downfalls.

Intellect and Intelligence

The two different aspects that make a great combination if found together. These are the qualities that I am most passionate about and try each moment to inculcate the best in times into me, for these would never leave me and might lead to being wise or towards the attainment of peace and wisdom. Learning from the experiences of life and absorbing the intellect from life's offerings are the best lessons that one comes across in the process and the journey of life.

Traveling

Traveling through different places leads me to the process of becoming a better person through practical experiences. Traveling has improved my knowledge and the huge plethora of understanding life in better ways, making the rightest choices among the choices available and moving towards being a better human for one’s own self and others.

Peace

The exploration of life that we all human beings set ourselves into must ultimately lead to something that grants us the tranquillity in life, for there is nothing as serene and soothing as peace. Peace is something I have always yearned for and has transformed me into a person that I am. This makes the journey worthwhile and meaningful with the accomplishment of achievements of the life that one aspires for.

These are few of the things that I have been passionate about and shall definitely make efforts to inculcate them in life. It is important to maintain the positivity in life with the passion following and leading life graciously with the hopes that one has from oneself.

The fantastico idea of love!

The most eternal feelings of all, Love. While coming to define it, we are restricting it and putting boundaries across the limitless. Well coming to approach and reflect upon it, there is never a perfect time or place for when true love occurs to a person or it should be like it happens to a person. It just happens, and most often happens accidentally. This could be in a heartbeat, or in a single flashing, or some throbbing moment. And when you come to realize that such things are happening to you and creating an all together a different environment around you with a sense of amazing kind of excitement turning the smiles of on one's face more intense and warm, oh well, it is the time you are in love. Okay, may be some other thing could also be a reason, but here I am sure, love is one of them and tops the list.

With the things set in mind and to make your crush turned to your love, is the most amazing happening of an individual. So, the efforts in making that conversion should be well planned and executed, to avoid the regrets, for it has its own reasons. With love in the atmosphere that sets in the air with the beginning of a new year, things make more sense for the one in love or about to make a welcome of the love in their life.

Now, to get to the task, knowing my friend well enough, I would like to go ahead with the things that of interest to both of us and shall keep in mind not to make any weird act or any sort of nuisance, of which I am a champ. First things first, food. Since she is interested in having cuisine made by me, I shall prepare a cake and chocolate brownies for her. Cake and chocolate being the best on the list to set the mood great and begin the day. So making these delicacies would be a great idea, I would be ready with a cake, different from the previous times, carrying a gentle message that would be convincing and taking the lead.

Next would be going around for some sight-seeing, which both of us like to merge ourselves with the nature. It is a great idea to spend the time in the laps of the nature with your partner as it makes both the people more understanding about each other. It is great way of knowing and discovering other person in better and healthy ways while spending time in the nature. This could be a walk along the roadside, or in a park, or boating around at a sight, or may be even sitting under a tree.

Lastly at the end of the day, would be to drop a message into her car front seat which would be like - "I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride. I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, and there would be better things ahead awaiting us. I would always be waiting for the happy times and even the more merrier times because any amount of time spent together would be less by your side."

Impact of hopes and aspirations!

Hopes and aspirations hold a significant place in our lives and we must not be ignorant of them. We must be positive in our actions and deeds and must lead life graciously in a hopeful manner. There are certain acts that I would definitely wish to take up once I attain the stability which I would take up for the satisfaction of myself and others. Some of them would be:

Making adequate facilities for the education of the children: Providing the schooling and educational services to all the children of the country is the prime dream of mine. It is a great wish and dream of mine to see every child of this country as an educated individual. I wish there would be a day in India when the literacy percentage in India would be 100% and the country would be a learned nation. This would lead to the eradication of improper management in the families and life of the individuals. Also, this would bring prosperity and peace in the lives of the people.

Making adequate facilities to be made available for the old age people: In the recent times where the old age homes are being flooded with the old age people, shall make them avail the best possible services. I shall take up steps that would make them happy in the last days of their life. I wish everyone realizes that the old aged people of the country are not left out. Their health is main concern in the old age. Also, the individuals should realize it is a bad idea to leave them in their old age when they need the family's and their children's love, care and warmth.

Making special efforts for the autistic people: Since the people are still unaware of the autism and its consequences, shall make efforts largely to educate people about these abnormalities. The autism is on a rise and it is important that people are more knowledgeable about this particular disorder where the special kids are abnormal in their learning habits and other daily activities. They should be given proper care and facilities so that their proper growth is ensured. These special children should not be left out and brought up in an adequate and appropriate way.

Providing the adequate sanitation facilities within the villages and remote areas of India: The villages and remote areas of the country have the inadequate sanitation facilities. These should be take care of and facilities should be provided to them so that diseases do not spread through improper sanitation and also proper care is taken in terms of health management.

Making the health and hospitality services for the poor people of India: The health is a main concern for any individual. I wish I could do my bit to make the hospitality and health services easily available for the poor people who cannot afford the health care practices. The efforts could be made by making the basic medicines available for them free of cost. Also, health care facilities for the pregnant women, new-born babies, and old people who face critical issues should be provided with good health practices so that they do not battle with their life.

I wish, one day I would be able to fulfil and bring to mainframe the execution of these wishes, hopes and aspirations, that would bring me pleasures and happiness, and to others too.

Impact of learning in life!

Life is an opportunity and we must hail it and learn from the instances that come our way, whether it may be success or failure. Being optimistic is a great art and every individual must possess it, for it has its own charm and aura associated with it. It is one of the most amazing weapon that one can ever be in possession of. This comes with different lessons and learning in life. Life is a wonderful teacher that teaches us different arts in different degrees.

I have always been a pampered child and never had to face any difficulties and hardships in life. I should be thankful to Almighty for these splendid showering that he has upon me for keeping me blessed throughout this journey of life where now I have seen enough number of people suffering due to their problems and situations they are thrown upon by life. It is all through the optimism levels that I have come to learn by now. This happened on fine day when I visited to a special kids school with my cousin who has a special child. I mentioned the word "special" here twice in my last sentence because they are not normal kids and their state is differently designed, for they are autistic, their thinking levels are different, unlike we normal humans.

I saw lots of parents there with their kids, children taking special care of them. The team that was making efforts to handle them and teach them the basic things and imparting lessons to them. Also, there was a team of doctors and psychologists there. I managed to talk to a doctor there, where I was told about this ailment of autism. I happened to learn a lot of things like their mindset, what kind of abnormalities are these, what is the cause of their occurrence, and a lot of other questions that I was answered by the doctor whom I managed to be a friend till date. I still contact her for several of my queries related to these special kids as I began my studies on them. As the time passed by, the things were coming as an eye-opener for me with each passing day. I was learning something new each day. Also, people in India are largely unaware about this particular disorder.

With each passing day, I was learning to be positive. There were changes in my behaviour and in my attitude towards life. I am a changed person as of now for there are lots of blessings that I have always enjoyed and I would continue to cherish and relinquish. I decided to be hopeful about the situations and happenings around me. I decided to talk to people more often about this disorder so that more and more people are aware of it and they make others aware of it. Though it can be totally cured but there are efforts that everyone of us can make in making things better for them, instead of neglecting and ignoring them. Also, government and non-government organisations are coming up these days to address this issue and taking steps to make things better for kids with autism and special needs. Awareness for this particular cause has to be brought among the people so that they do not see it as a curse and disappointment and instead learn to fight the disorder with the right attitude in life. It is important to have such learnings in life as they make a person strong.

Impact of decision making in life!

Decision making is an important aspect of life and it has huge impact in various fields of life that one leads. Life is in real sense, a very good teacher and it teaches us humans lot of thing at different instances to everyone of us in several ways taking us to capture different heights. We need to take up the learnings in life as they come up and take up the essential steps that are needed at each time to make right things happen at the right time. This would lead to the attainment of great results and achievements and shall ultimately lead to the path of success.

The strong ideas that are needed to be taken up in life must be taken by analysing the pros and cons, risks and consequences associated with them and thus appropriate measures and calculations must be done while taking up the proceedings that we need to keep to success and move ahead in life. A single move can change the life plan and destiny of where we want to go in life. Also, the decisions that we take one after the other help us in conquering our fears and taking the lead in life in a convenient way. It is important that we plan out on our aims and visions and take up the moves and important decisions which are needed to approach towards our goal.

It is important for an individual to be decisive in life and these skills should be imparted from the early school days by making children involved in several leadership qualities which would enable children to take up stand for themselves and help them in decision making. The early childhood lessons have a huge impact on the learning of children to take up their own decisions.

It is important for every individual to be confident and strong enough to faces the challenges in life, as they give a lot of learning and make a person strong and capable. I would like to go ahead by narrating an incident where I took a decision which had a huge implication in in life, that was to step out of my normal routine and daily schedule, plan out things and work according to the new boundaries and make things happen and work for myself so that I could attain peace with my mind to achieve what I have been aspiring for a long time. Leaving the home and taking a lead to stand out of it is one of the most difficult tasks that one ever does in life, for the comforts of home are never met anywhere else. Also, the deprivation of the love of mom and dad, and staying away from them is not easy.

After my graduation, when I was asked to make a choice between my job or to join the family business, I decided to follow my instincts and go out of the comfort zone to earn my living by learning in the job environment for learning professionalism and carrying forward my desire of being an IT professional. It was difficult initially, as I never stayed away from home prior to this. There are lot of other hurdles that one comes across in this attempt and I too face the same. There are issues like taking care of laundry and food, which at home are being fulfilled and handled by mother, without letting me bother about any single thing.  Also, there is a lot of struggle that one faces while staying away from home, which one often takes for granted while the person is at home. But after several years of struggle I have been able to come out as a strong individual and this has made me an individual that I am. 

As an IT professional I learnt a lot of things in life like the art of management, art of living, handling out activities in a responsible manner, taking care of the slightest home-care and household needs, and last but not the least, the importance of family members. It transformed me into a responsible individual and made me confident and strong to take up important decisions in life with strong will power. Decision making is an art and one must learn it tactfully. It has a huge impact and makes a huge difference in the life of an individual.

The #Fantastico day well spent!

In the journey of life, it is quite difficult to be optimistic through all the days, because there are several ups and downs through which an individual goes in a lifetime. It is a high virtue to be optimistic in life, but there are times when one feels low on energy to take things forward. It is because sometimes the energy levels go down and at those points in life a little nudge is needed to set back right on the track and give the best shot in the endeavours in life. Though internet has made the world seem a tiny place through the fast paced communication - video calls and conferencing, messages, applications, etc to keep oneself updated on what is happening in life, the physical presence of the person you love being the most is always felt. There are no ways which can justify the meeting of the person you long to wait.

I was waiting for the vacations of my brother who had been to US for his higher studies. For almost an year he did not visit us for he could not get enough number of holidays to spend quality time with us at home, so he decided to give us a long visit. We all were waiting impatiently for the time to arrive so that we all could be together again and spend the time together, for it had been quite long since all the family members met and had a quality time.

He has been the most loved child of the family and thus the waiting got more impatient and exciting and every single day near to his visit mattered to him a lot. And after a long wait, he was finally there, and four family members went to receive him at the airport. And when he arrived, for quite obvious reasons, for over 12 hours flight, we allowed him to rest for the day, but the funny part was we all cousins were involved in unpacking the stuff and find the gifts that he had bought for us. And when he finally got up, he did not find his stuff, for we all cousins had planned in advance to follow it up in this manner. But he knew that we all had been playing around and he was also enjoying with us.

We all cousins planned for the outing which included a movie scene and then a dinner, which was to be followed by celebrations at India Gate. The plan was easy and simple and all were ready for it. We all were waiting for this moment to arrive as soon as possible and have a healthy time where we all would be howling and jumping together in joys. We all cousins had got gifts for him. He was surprised to see so many gifts around him. We tried our best to make him feel special and give him the best memories that he would carry with himself while on his way back to US again.  

I wish everyday was like this day, where the smiles and joys knew no end. I miss his presence. Everyone in the family misses him. He is a person filled with energy throughout even in the tough and testing times.
