“I am scared”, said the little kid. “What are you scared of?”, asked the dad.
The little one sighed,”I have no idea of what the world out there is like. I really don’t have a clue, and that’s what scares me. “
“I agree, no one will ever have a clue of what’s going to happen next.”, smiled the Dad.
“Really?!! That’s all you have to say about it? No pep talk or anything that can make me feel better ?!!” , the little one looked at his dad in disbelief.
“That, my son, is the ultimate truth of life. No one has a clue of what the future holds. The only thing you can do is choose how you look at it. Each moment, you can either be excited of what’s going to happen next, or succumb to your fears and live in misery…none of which is the real truth. The world is going to a heaven or a hell depending on what you expect it to be. The rest that unfolds , is simply a story that you get to witness and take part in…”
The little one finally understood. And with that, it spread it’s wings and took the first flight !
The little bird finally flew from its nest …into the unknown .
You may not know where you are going, but as long as you spread your wings, the winds will carry you …

The issue arose with the last name of the child. Mihal insisted her husband’s second name should be added as he had passed away when Sonu was in college.
Sonu and Roopa were all excited to celebrate their tenth wedding anniversary. It was even more special as they had just welcomed their bundle of joy in their lives. It is been just a week. Sonu’s mother Mihal wanted to have the naming ceremony as well on the same day.
While the preparations went on with inviting guests, booking the best event management team, and the buffet menu for the night, Mihal concentrated on the little one’s name. According to their family astrologer, they agreed on the name Sonia. Sonu was from Kolkata while Roopa was from South India. They followed all the religious rituals from both sides of the family and hence because of that their marriage took place without much hassle.
One of my friends told me that her husband criticized her for locking her phone, whereas the husband never allows her to touch his phone and locks it in the cupboard.
Early in the morning of May 23, 2023, around 6 a.m., I got a call from my cousin from abroad.
While speaking, he told me how he took care of me as a child. He might be two years older than me, but we studied together. So, calling him by name was not at all a problem for me. I was too sleepy as I went to sleep late the previous night.
While talking, he said, “We gave you freedom.” My eyes were sleepy, but the mini-me in me awakened me to reply to him, saying, “Freedom is not to be granted by others. It is to be lived by everyone. Men always think that they are the owners of freedom, and they control their mothers, sisters, wives, and daughters!”
