Just yesterday, we went to a park with a nice big flower garden and a play area. My focus was to get past the crowd and reach the play area asap where my son could have a good time ...but my 3 yr old son had other plans..he would stop look at the flowers, point something out to me and ask me what it was... stop to smile at ppl, look at the sky and here i was getting all antsy.
Then suddenly ZAPP ! i could see that my son was teaching me something here...I thought about my life till date ... focused on studies in school and college and then focused on CA... then immly took to working and now after 10 years of working, i am pregnant with our second child and have been forced to take a break on account of health conditions.
Suddenly, the routine of getting up in the morning, finishing the chores, and getting to work, meeting deadlines at work to arrive home for dinner and then sleep was no longer there. I was totally lost! My world completely caved in and i gave in to a lot of self pity.
They say you get to know who your true friends are at times like this, but it also got me wondering who the real me was! Was i too caught up in the rut of life to just stop and look at everything and give something back to my soul? Of COURSE !!!
So I' ve now resolved to in Sergie Brin (Co founder of Google)'s words to keep stumbling upon newer things and trying them out ... surely one of some of them will be more valuable..
