Parenting-A Job of a Cogwheel

I think being a parent is one of the toughest jobs in this world. Even though you are fully prepared, children always tend to surprise you with their out-of-the-syllabus demeanour.

When we are having trouble to understand an adult who can think, talk and walk, how can we understand an infant who cannot do any of these?

Every waking hour of our life is a small war. We keep fighting our way up just so we could provide for ourselves. We are not able to handle people with whom we work and interact on a daily basis, how do you think parents are coping with the upbringing of their children?

Happy Birthday Dad! Or not so Happy…….

Mom: “It is okay Tanay, tomorrow is your dad’s birthday.

We will plan something for his birthday.

You know he loves you. He is just worried about you. That’s all.”

Me: “But Mom, Dad never celebrates his Birthday! Remember how he sent his friends and colleagues away when we planned for a surprise last year?

I do not know why he does not celebrate his birthday. All those people really felt bad. He could have at least thanked them for coming!

I am not sure if he would like it this time either and I am not going to go through another round of quarrel with him!”

Mom: “Let us not call anybody home tomorrow. We will bake a special cake for him before he comes home from work. Sounds Fun?

And I am sure this time he might not do something like that…”

Me: “Fine! As long as it changes his mood and gets me my keys back! Love you Mom. Thank you for being there.”

The Symbol of True Love-A Match Made in Heaven.

 

It is said that good things never come easy and great things require time, as masterpieces are never urgent. And such great things stay strong and tall for a very long time.

Life is a journey on unchartered areas, it is a map which is yet to be discovered and the only way to know what lies beyond this is to take a step forward.

We never know on this journey what happens; we don’t know who will meet us and whom we will meet.

 Some come in our life as a blessing and some as lessons, but every person is very important because all those people have played their part well in making us the person what we are today.

We meet many people in our lives and only a few remain with us till the end.

But once when people are meant to be together, no matter what they will be together till the end and such bonds are very precious as they are rare.

 It has been 23 years that you both have come together today and on the day when you met, neither of you imagined that you would be having a life together in the future. Maybe this is what destiny had in store for you. You had many ups and downs, many hurdles and many challenges during your life but no matter what and how anything happened, in the end, you both stood by each other crossing all the hurdles together, holding each other’s hand before entering into the new phase of life.

Gangishetty Rajendra Prasad, Gangishetty Krishna Kumari, you are the true symbol of love in our lives. Never let the smile escape from your face because the most beautiful thing we ever like to see about you is a smile on your face and we cannot bear to see you without a smile.

 You are our source of inspiration, our source of determination and our refuge in hard times. We learnt from you that life is not easy and so long as life is, there is a struggle and no matter what and how bad the situation maybe never stop believing in what you do and never stop loving your family. You both have been great parents, great teachers, and good friends to us. You are the most precious gift god has ever given to us and we can’t thank him enough for it.

We wish you a Happy Marriage Anniversary………………

You are the symbol of true love in our lives and this is the proof that it is a match made in Heaven.
