My dadddaa...My hero..My first love !

Father.....The one who is indeed special for all of us. The person who loves us to the core, though they fail to express it all the time. For him I am his princess and his small world. His day begins with the sentence 'Did my little angel woke up?' and ends with the sentence "Why is she not home till now? Please call her and ask how much more time will it take ?(To my mom ofcourse)" And as soon as I enter the house I hear a voice coming "Now since you are back, I can sleep peacefully ". I think words or may be a blog would be too small to express my gratitude towards him. During my childhood he was the one who used to leave his work inbetween just to pick me up from my school. And that golden moment when I used to come out of the school gate looking for my bus..I could see him standing,waiting in the sun for his little princess to come and that glimpse was enough to make me smile..Early morning I used to miss my school bus and I remember sitting on his scooter and he slowly riding it towards my school almost everyday. I remember him standing all day at terrace onthe day of kite flying, burning crackers with me..just to make me smile.I remember him coming running to my room handing over me my pocket money from his salary every month..Coz that was most important for him.Things which he buys for me were never expensive. Yet, same things were expensive when it came to spending on himself. Strange is'nt it?..But that's how fathers are. I can't recall a single thing which I've demanded for and not got from him.My silly demands like be it a packet of chips or for that matter a personal car..He fulfiled it all. My summer vaccations used to be his time on duty And he was indeed very PUNCTUAL. Ehh..Not office duty, Duty at home..From being my care taker to being my nanny..He did it all !

 That serene and soft smile all the time..That voice full of love and blessings..That tenderness..That hand of protection and care..Yes that's my daddaa..!

We often think of a mother's love in colorful, warm, and tender terms; but we are reluctant to do the same for fathers and we forget to thank our fathers. Do we ever think that they are the ones who don't show it, but we are a world to them. Do we ever realise as soon as we enter their lives the so called boy who is now a man forgets his huge friend circle, his bachelor times, his night outs(all of us know what kind of party animals men usually are :p)

and runs after us all the time..Daughters are the most precious gift to father.  We never realise as we are growing old our fathers are growing older. We forget the times they used to take leaves just to celebrate our b'days. We are so busy with our lives that we forget to thank that man who has simply given his life to us..My dear dadaa..you have worked so hard to make sure I was happy and healthy and I had everything I needed..

By the time we realise when we ourselves come at that stage probably it's too late..As we say..A father is first love of his daughter and first hero of his son. 

I can still hear that voice in my ears all the time..at my workplace, college, while driving, outing with friends and all the possible times which says "Beta let me know whenever you need anything.Do you need more money?.I am just a call away..Please come back home on time." and always just one and only one question "You fine no?" 

That scene from the movie Yeh Jawani hai deewani touched my heart when a father asked his son not to go away for further studies and son agreed..father said "Will you really stay back if I say a no? And it was more than enough for him that his son agreed to what he said..He said "you go wherever you want, live life the way you wish to.remember one thing..I am always there with you " 

It's a big thing for him even if we say yes to something for his happiness. Is'nt it our duty to show our gratitude? We forget the times when he left all his work for just one day (our birthday)..just to be with us..We are so busy with our work that we forget to take a day off and just be with him on his b'day. What else does he wants?  To a father growing old nothing is dearer than his daughter..So this one is for you Dadaa..My king..My hero..my first love..no matter how old you grow you'll always be my superstar..Yes this is for you..yet many years to go..25th April..My dadaa's b'day. And this is for him. I am nothing without you, you are my whole world.Thankyou for giving one more valuable year of your life fully and entirely to me :)

My first blog :D

Is it necessary to be ambitious in life?
This is a weird question, but comes in my mind a lot of times. Why? Why such a question?. Since the day we are born we are being taught to be ambitious and aim something big in life. In today's busy world we are surrounded by over ambitous people around .We don't get any time to think what if we were not one of them. What if life would have been simpler and people around would have loved us for the kind of person we are and not for where do we stand (professionally) .
We are so busy in earning money that we forget to spend it. We are not even clear as to what suits us the best in our lives when we reach the level where we are forced to choose a particular field(engineering, commerce, arts, media, humanities,etc) Have you ever wondered how mature would a kid of 10th standard be to decide what he wants to become. Chuck that. Here in India we start asking children since the day they start speaking "What do you want to become? Doctor or engineer?" Seriously? Ask yourselves once how many of us know are we really happy with what we are today and is this what we actually wanted to do . In a blink of eye life may change and circumstances may reverse.You never know. Sometimes we cry and in next few seconds we smile. It's all about how we want to live life. why don't we give most of our times in doing things that make us happy? Okay, let me quote few small things that made me happy within last few days( Sitting with a street dog who was ill and looking into his eyes and feel his pain, cuddling him, just playing with a child, shopping for my mother,having a evening tea with my mother and father and just simply sitting with them, lying down on my mother's lap,just talking bullshit with my best friend, expressing gratitude to my loved ones...and many more.)

Excuse me? Stop and think how many of us actually feel these small small moments which give us biggest happiness . Even if you buy an audi or a Porsche what will you do out of it when you don't have a special someone to go on a drive with?

How will branded grooming products help you when you don't have that someone to notice you ? Yes I agree with the fact that happiness comes from within, but this has another side to it. Happiness is complete only when you have your loves ones around to share them. Being alone and being happy is temporary, but warmth from someone stays forever. God sent us on this planet and gave a beautiful life to live and enjoy, mingle with each other, share memories, create new ones and again recreate them, not to be jealous and envy of each other. We call it so called AIM in life which makes us do hell lot of things and during that journey we don't even realise what are we leaving back and the cost we are paying for those materialistic things. We live far away from our own parents to make our own career and live our own selfish life which is full of parties, roaming around, drinks...Stop and think. Did it ever had meaning? What if one day you come back and you don't find them anymore? We get calls from our parents day and night and we are busy calling and texting the ones who were never ours. Do we ever think why they are calling us, stopping us to do things? That's because they are the only ones who will love us unconditionally throughout our lives and won't expect anything in return. We are so busy in showing our gratitude to people who come in our lives for some selfish reason and just go away and forget showing the same gratitude to them who simply stand by us forever and ever. I remember a dialogue from the movie kal ho na ho "There are very few people who will love you selflessly , don't let such people go from your lives, hold their hands, for such people are very very rare" and also "Mother is the one who thinks from heart..never ever hurt your mother because she is the one who will just be with you always..you can cry on her shoulder, always count on her, your problems become her problems and she faces them with all the courage" life is beautiful..God never sent a child with any name. It's we human beings who creates an identity for the child, tie him with the knots of so called relationships. We are just free to be like a free bird, love people around, talk to anyone we want. We don't have to think even once before loving someone..coz at the end of the day all of us need that warmth in life..And sometimes...actually most of the times it's just TOO LATE to realise this..we loose people..we loose those times.. Stop and think...Stop and think !
