You are what you wear up your sleeve. Your society is a reflection of who you are and what you do...
In many ways than one, it is ultimately in our hands to mold things around us. There are few amongst us who want to make it a better place.
I don't know to what extent will my contribution would apply but there are ten things that I would advise my kids to always carry with them...
The right attitude
I can't imagine a person without this. I mean the positive ones of course. No matter what my dear kids... make sure to get hooked onto only the positive attitudes
Past is yesterday, today is tomorrow
Always be farsighted. Never turn back. Unless you wanna say good bye and always hope for the best
Always on the Go.. but no E-Go!
Always be ready for the next leap. That next step. That milestone. Have no ego... no matter what
Say it with... a Yes!
Always be ready to grab opportunities. Don't be shy of them. Grab it when you can
A noble heart
Always have empathy towards the old and the poor. Coz' you'll grow old one day and it doesn't take time to turn poor!
And a rational mind
When taking decisions, think from your mind. Let your heart keep you rooted on the ground and your mind towards the sky. While taking decisions, be wise and remember while in the process... never ever hurt anyone!
So sorry... I love you
The words may be easy but always use them wherever and whenever you can. While doing so... mean what you say! Always show your feelings to your loved ones!
The big picture
Always focus on the big picture. It's OK if you are hurt by someone or something or some action. But focus about the larger issues. It is easy to get carried away with small and paltry things...
Give back what you have got!
Always spend some time in something where you don't expect anything in return. It could be aid, help, charity whatever your heart sets it's mind on! And while doing that don't boast your achievements.
One for the road...
Always carry your iPod with you. Your fave collection of songs/ albums/ artists... They provide great company even during the most sober times...
Dear child, we may not be there forever with you as you keep going ahead.
Our pride is not in providing you food, shelter or all the other materialistic comforts in the world...
But this is all we can offer you for your incredible journey called... Life!
We hope you pack these well and have a wonderful journey!
