Called up my mom today
afternoon for a general chat, she says “I
am painting the wall, can we talk later?”. As the call ended, the only one
thing that hit me was how cool stuff my mom is still doing at this age. It’s so
inspiring to see my parents always doing something interesting – like going for
a jog early morning, trekking, playing badminton, working with NGO etc.
The
best thing my parents preached: “Beautiful
thing about learning is that nobody can take that away from you. It’s the
biggest wealth. The world has so many lessons to teach you. Consider the world,
this Earth, to be like a school and your life as classrooms. And sometimes here
in this Planet Earth school the lessons often come dressed up as detours or
roadblocks. And sometimes as full-blown crises. To succeed you got to be open to
the lessons, lessons from the grandest university of all, that is, the universe
itself.”
The
times when I lost badminton matches, banged my car and failed in relationships….all
gave me lessons. Failure is never an option; it's being able to walk through
life eager and open to self-improvement and that which is going to best help
you evolve, 'cause that's really why we're here, to evolve as human beings. To
grow into more of ourselves, always moving to the next level of understanding,
the next level of compassion and growth.
And I
believe that there's a lesson in almost everything that you do and every
experience, and getting the lesson is how you move forward and being more of
yourself.
From
last 2 months, I have been closely working with inters & college’s students
- the thing that I have learnt from them:
- Being who you are (No mask)
- Not being judgmental
- Open to experiment & learning’s
- No fear of failures
- Being crazy, laughing just because you want to
- Loving & caring selflessly
I want to learn to swim, skydive, ballet dance, play guitar, bake yummy cookies, skating & many more..
Happy
Learning Friends!
