And when I previously blogged about my daughter I was told that she would be the lucky one to have me and Sowmya as parents…kept me pondering for a while about this, then as always the case with me *bulb glows in my head* “WE ARE THE LUCKY ONES!!!” and the reigning logic behind this? We are free to choose so many things in our life, our jobs, our friends, our love, our career, our priorities and an unending list of whatever the human ego may think of conquering; but you can never choose the children you want to have! They choose you is what I’ve begun to believe…and so it shall be…always…we are blessed to have Amritha around! (-:
A casual conversation ends up here as a post…it was just a conversation with a friend about me being happy; well i try to pick up the smallest of things and try to find joy in them…i have realised that they are the ones that matter the most…try to the fullest extent to squeeze joy out of every possible instant of my life…and i have learnt this the hard way…a very hard way on the 13th of June, 2000 in the evening…the death of my mum brought the world crushing down on me…there were so many things i had to say to her, so much i had to learn…an infinite amount of time i needed to bond with her…no i’m not saying that i didn’t enjoy the wonderful years of my life with her but then i wanted more…that’s always the case with mum’s…you can never have enough of it…now when i see pictures, old pictures with a tinge of yellow in them…i realise…don’t take life the easy way…it’s not worth it…i’m unable to give this one a title…someday let’s see…but today no…
God bless…
I’m a daddy!!
7 Jun14:47 PM on the 7th of May, 2010 was one of those defining moments in my life…i for one became a dad; to a beautiful daughter an angel of sorts, bundle of joy and amazement…that precise moment when i touched her tiny fingers when i whispered the almighty’s name into her ears an enormous sense of responsibility, love, caring enveloped me like never before…it was a wonderful feeling; a feeling of eternal bliss…
So what has changed now? Well almost everything…i now am the least option in my life with my wife and daughter being at the forefront of everything that i do, that i think…i am a thief at my own home quietly scrambling around from one place to another…almost one month old, she has put into me what other people have tried a lot…PATIENCE…and i guess i will be needing more of it in the coming months…also there is a sense of responsibility now prevailing with me every moment of my life…that i guess is what only being a parent can feel…and it does feel good…
Some wonderful things i enjoy are singing her some slow songs to put her to sleep, watch her fall asleep and make wonderful expressions smiling, frowning and sometimes attempting to speak but ends up making soft wonderful tones…she has managed to wet my clothes a few times now, but from the past few days i get the hint of it and have managed to beat her to it, seriously dont know how long i’m going to keep ahead of her as she is always finding new ways of doing it
i just cant help but smile whenever she does that and gives me a naive look…and she wont let me or her mum change our nappies without giving a good fight kicking and shoving our hands…
Life now is chugging along with her as the engine pulling me and my wife in the direction she wants to go
God bless…
