On disturbances in life and their place in our life

We want them to make us proud and are so busy investing our energies in the name of correcting them and taming them!

And then we look forward to being grandparents to spoil a child, enjoy just being with him, spoiling him with our love and think “this love that one has for grand children is the best!”. But it is never about grand children at all! It is not because they are grandchildren. It is all in how you reach to your grandchild - Just being with them with no strings attached. We don’t have any expectations from them. Why then postpone enjoying ‘just being with the kid’ to some distant future? Just be with a kid.

The conditions that we live with

a.you’ve to be strict with your kids to bring them up right.

b.if you play a lot with kids they get spoiled.

In the process we miss out on their growing up. We stunt their growth. Yes, in the name of expectations, our dreams and conditions, we don’t let them express themselves right. Our kid is not a trophy that we need to show the world. Let us bring up a confident kid. Give him freedom and trust him with decisions.

Points worth taking in :

• Don't postpone living 'a moment'.
• Live whatever life throws at you. 
• Whether it be a chocolate, butterfly, sunset or a balloon - whatever you are passed on, experience it.
• Don't cry in some distance future when you can't eat chocolate (because of some disease like diabetes...). Watch butterfly while you still can see. We take these things for granted. Don't! Be with the moment while it lasts.
• Play with kids as much as possible.
• Don't pressurize kids with too much of discipline.
• Kids can be trained without being shouted at too! They don't listen to you but learn by seeing you. So be what you are preaching. As reiki channels just keep doing reiki for them. 
• Life is too short. Time flies. Don't complain that you don't have memories of fun with kids. Tomorrow all that one is left out is these memories that we make today. Most of the kids leave homes to chase their destiny. So make enough memories to fall back on those times.

Just learn to be with nature at least for 1/2 an hour daily for next 11 days. It doesn't mean you need to go to some hill station. Don't take it as an excuse to travel. Just take a walk in the neighbourhood. Look at the sky and the trees in your area while you walk. Sit in the park. Listen to birds and see them fly.
