A humble begining.

Seems ages since I have picked up myself and done something close to my heart.
Whenever I think about the things I love to do most and at which I am good, one thing comes first to my mind.....'children'.....bringing up children....rather helping them find themselves, helping them grow.Since children have always been my passion,loving them and being patient with them comes naturally and effortlessly to me.Rarely has it happened that a child has refused to obey me.
The only thing that has helped me attain this feat is love....unconditional love and understanding towards them.Often we as adults look at a child from where we are standing, try to compare them with others. This according to me is the greatest folly.Believe me friends,every child ,just every single child is different and so has a unique purpose in this life .So please stop comparing, stop being judgemental.The only thing common is that love and tolerance are the only tools in our hands with which we can help our children shape their lives.Have patience, be friendly, supportive , let them voice their feelings, their point of views, listen to them,let them commit mistakes.Don't let them know or feel but be watchful.As parents it is our duty to groom our child in such a way that it helps him find his own way...and not to push him the way we want him to go.
Just this much for today.I wud love to share my point of views on this topic and ur comments, suggestions and views are most welcome!
