Kindled Minds...

"ज़िंदगी अपने दम पे जी जाती है..... औरों के दम पे तो सिर्फ जनाज़ा उठता है !"

Because I was idle since 2 days & was trying to falsely motivate myself to return myself on d right track & was trying to turn my time into doing something productive,but was failing.

And suddenly after lunch dad said," I am going for a work in government department, come with me and you will come out of this fake fatigue!"

I said," Let me finish this one chapatti & then will join you."

Dad with a drat," As soon as I wear my shoes & sit in car,I will leave.If you want to join then join or go to hell ".

(I knew that If I will not go now then at night dinner I will have to hear a good harangue from my beloved dad :D )

So I applied butter on my chapatti, rolled it down quickly & ran to sit in car before he started the car.

We reached near collector office,He parked the car and said that if I take car ahead then I will have to waste time in finding parking space & again to remove the car out of that zone.So we will walk from here on, to all departments as all are near by.(He is very frugal in matter of times)

We went to all the different-different departments for some document work.

As far as I knew dad never did all these things by himself.He either used to give such work to some consultant or CA.But I saw this time doing him all these by himself.Though I had many questions I didn't ask a single as I thought he was angry.But He knows me very well and broke the silence by asking me,"Do you have something to ask?"

I with an excitement,"Yes dad,actually I think all these things you can get done through a consultant then why are you doing It by yourself?"

He with a smile,"Darling,because till the day you don't take such small-small work in your own hand,these consultants scare you by the consequences you would face & try to burn our pockets by hefty fees.Till the day you depend on others to solve your own problems,Your problems will look like lion.The day you take initiative to solve your own problem at that time your problems will look like a lamb to you & you will start getting solutions miraculously or any either way you will get it."

With the speed that he was walking he was looking in his 20's & me in 50's. :P

The spark he had to complete all this document work for his new project makes me tweak my memory do I really know this man who is too fit for his age & whose legs I press every night to make him fall asleep. But for now I don't think he for a once also felt that leg pain.Somewhere I knew why he is so successful in his life was only his intellectual power,But now I think that it is his passion to create a new goal every-time as soon as an old goal is achieved & then to start a journey afresh with same enthusiasm to achieve the new goal.

To galvanize yourself into action- you need to set a goal.
