Did You Know That Life Lessons Could Be Child's Play?

Today's congested and busiest life of all human being. Article is very inspiring and energising to all of us.

Absolutely right, as long as I lived my life always as a 'todays man' I had a perfect tomorrows and after days. When I started thinking about the future, near future, immediate future and long term future., and what not literally I am left with more and more worries and more dark circles only. Good, it is time fro me to go back to my old attitude of living life as a 'todays man'

My 18 months old kid is a "art of living" book. He has abundant energy, do not have dark circles, never gets tired, eats when hungry, refuses when not even if its the best things we as adults will gulp when stomach full,sleeps on time, gets up when he gets a good night sleep. I ask sometimes-what makes him the way he is? And my intellect tells me-he lives "now"...do all what he can "now",eats if he's hungry "now", plays if he has to "now" no matter what he has in hand....no choices..living "now" . Learning from him every day the lesson of living "now" which we all practiced when we were kids but education/degrees took away the very common lesson of life.

excellent write up pl keep on sending

Extremely pleased to read this article.It is a fact that we can learn many innovative things from children but we feel that we know better.Our ego does not permit us to learn from them.They are very innocent & good at heart.They will always give frank opinion.To be very frank,I have a learnt a lot from my son.

Hi Ritika Another amazing post by you. Even when we grew up as children, we did all these things. As we grew up, we assumed we knew everything so we forgot what was supposed to be done. Its important to re-discover the child in us and start from scratch. Thank you so much for awakening the child in us. I'm also thrilled by Mr. Srihari's personal life. May God bless him with all the wishes.

an excellent article. in my younger days i came across a poem of mythili charan gupta about an old person longing for his lost childhood. although i cant quote fully, some poignent lines .... mai mathwali,doud dwar per kadi hui,,badi hui, ..... chintha ke chakkar mein padkar jeevan bi ek boj bana.... how i wish that i never grew up.

Ice advice to remain active, positive and enthusiastic

After I had my first child I life threw up so many lessons to offer. A child doesnt know whats fear, whats negative thinking, whats failure. As we know darkness is just an absense of light. So to her there is no such things as problem or failure in life. A child doesnt believe this, or doesnt know this or doesnt acknowledge this...because a child doesnt process thoughts ...a child simply is. a Pure form of Living in the Present. A child is pure in her mind and has no bad intent, agenda and doesnt judge or have any mental noise...the source of all our unhappiness. We can be like a child. A child has a natural tendency to learn and very sensitive to enviroment. Everything is processed. Hence keep your children safe from evils of Media, Bad Mouths etc. Regards, Caetano

Children connect with each other very easily. Four children in a lift will talk to each other. Four adults will check their cell phones. I always talk to at least one person during my movement in a lift. In my housing society I made many friends during my conversation in the lift. It helps me connect with humans like children do

A very interesting and thought provoking article. As adults, we seem to have forgotten the pleasures of childhood. Thanks Ms. Bajaj for sharing your observations. Vinay Maira

Well said on "Did You Know That Life Lessons Could Be Child's Play". It reminds one of what we have heard often from Swami Parthasarathy in his lectures. Child always lives in the present, no worries of the past and no anxieties of the future. That gives them the energy and enthusiasm to enjoy whatever they do all the time. Spontaneity in their actions is what differentiates them from grown-ups and it is an expression of divinity all the time. There goes the old tamil saying, Kuzhandaiyum Deivamum gunathaal onru - "Child and the Divine are are of the same gunaas.

Dear Miss.Ritika, Your article is quite inspiring.I would like to share my own life experience. In 2006 March my beloved Angel, my daughter came in my married life.Almost 11 years without a child I was quite desperate in my married life as I felt along with my wife that Just we two will not complete the Institute of 'Family'. I adopted my pretty Angle 'Nidhi' with all the Stupid legal interference as the sitting judge was not knowing anything about 'Adoption' as he was a Session judge with Criminal law in mind. Nidhi was just 900 to 1000 gms.when she was left by someone at side of a fish market near a gutter without knowing her ability to fill life with contentment. God's destiny brought her in our life to fulfill my 'Family' frame completed. She had repeated Chest infection due to her underweight and negligence during her birth. But my wife's dedication and my daughter's feeling for her adopted parents has brought so much energy and zeal in her that no one can match. I left my managerial job after 21 years of service of hectic travelling and want to spend so much time with her that I shall never regret that I missed her childhood days. She inspires me all the time how one can fight with all the odds as a new born 900 to 1000 gms.child herself could fight with nature,society and destiny. She is my Inspiration,living God and Proof of Almighty.Every day she inspires me to fight against my own odds like spine injury during my early profession. Let me confess my grit to fight odds is just 1% of hers. O God! Give every child the lap of a mother and every mother the joy of a Child! Regards, C.S.SRIHARI.
