WHEN MY CHILDREN WERE SMALL AND COULD NOT EAT, I FED THEM FOOD.
WHEN THEY WERE A LITTLE BIGGER AND ATE HALF THE FOOD AND SPILLED THE OTHER HALF, I ALLOWED THEM TO DO SO.
IF I WERE TO KEEP FEEDING THEM TILL THEY WERE 7 OR 8 YEARS OLD, THEN I WAS THE ONE WHO DID NOT ALLOW THEM TO LEARN HOW TO EAT.
SLOWLY WHEN THEY GREW UP, I ALLOWED THEM TO MAKE THEIR CHOICE OF CLOTHES.
THEY CHOSE, BUT I DID HELP THEM TO RECHOOSE TOO.
THEY CHOSE TO GO TO A BOARDING SCHOOL.
I STOOD BY THEIR CHOICE, BUT AT THAT TIME I HAD MY OWN EMOTIONAL BONDING WITH THEM.
NOW AT 19 AND 17 YEARS OF AGE, THEY MAKE MOST OF THEIR CHOICES.
I AM JUST THEIR GUIDE.
IF I START MAKING THEIR CHOICES FOR THEM, THEN I WILL NOT ALLOW THEM TO LIVE THEIR LIFE.
THEY ARE HERE ON THIS EARTH PLANE TO KNOW AND UNDERSTAND LIFE.
I HAVE NEVER BEEN A WALL AGAINST WHATEVER THEY DECIDED.
I JUST HELD THEIR HANDS.
IF THEY MAKE MISTAKES, I DO NOT BANISH THEM FROM ME.
I KNOW PRETTY WELL THAT THEY HAVE TO UNDERSTAND LIFE.
IT IS BETTER THAT I ALLOW THEM TO WALK THEIR PATH OF LIFE, THAN MAKE CHOICES FOR THEM.
IT WILL NOT HELP EITHER OF US AT ALL.
IF I DO NOT GIVE THEM FREDOM TO MAKE THEIR OWN CHOICES, THEN ALL OF US ARE GOING TO BE ZOMBIES IN EACH OTHERS HANDS.
WELL, THAT DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE AT ALL. IT DOES NOT JUSTIFY LIFE.
I HAVE OFTEN HEARD PEOPLE COMMENTING ABOUT ME AS TO BE GIVING MY CHILDREN TOO MUCH OF FREEDOM AND SPOILING THEM.
BUT I KNOW THAT IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE WHICH GOES RIGHT INTO THEIR SYSTEM.
MAYBE, ALL THIS DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE TO ANYONE AT ALL.
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, I FEEL THAT EVERYTHING IS PERFECT.

The thoughts are a reverberation of my thoghts & definitely make a lot of sense ... I definitely experience this everyday. My child blooms when I shower her with love & negativity erupts as a volcano, when her freedom is curbed. Thanks , Ashvini, for waking us up evrytime...
