Kids

Kids are very sweet and cute!! 
Wow! Am I saying this?  There have been times when I used to get very irritated with kids. Kids would run around disturbing me. Kids were definitely not part of my world. This is how it was when I was myself a kid of around 6 years or so. It continued even after I turned 25. Then after that workshop I attended, I saw the change taking over me. Kids looked so complete and seemed even more understanding than elders. When parents are in trouble, it is the small children in the house who go comforting the parents. I started observing the behaviour of kids. They are so full of energy and love, it is their innate nature to go and help and care for people. I remember one incident while travelling from bangalore to chennai, when a small child was having biscuits. She sensed another person looking at her smilingly. This small girl immediately took two biscuits for herself and gave the rest of the packet to the stranger. I was so overwhelmed to see this gesture, it was done in all innocence and love. As we grow up, somehow this innocence and love gets covered by other emotions and feelings. We have to nurture these qualities, luckily I work for children as well nowadays, blessed by my master. I am having lovely time and refreshing myself with them. :-)
