Lets Go home....
Isn't it sometimes really hard to stay at one place? May it be your job or at a tenant out of your hometown?
I would here start with a small story-
A boy was asked to shift to new school in other town by his parents, and had to live alone there. He wasn't prepared as he was just in Grade-6. He insisted not to go several times but his parents were firm to send him and make him a brilliant student and a sharp man as well.
At times its our parents who think this is what is needed, a plant if not still developed enough to pour a lot of water on, is incapable of even facing the sun of warm winter, if is directly kept in summer sun, it will die ultimately and have no life. it would then be a dead plant.
But unlike plants, humans become stubborn.
So the boy was sent and his parents use to see him twice in a year and ask about his well being as well. Years passed and the boy with his initial struggles, of managing himself in the real harsh world outside, managing to stay out of his comfort zone and away from parents finally came in college and passed with beautiful scores.
The story from here generally can take many turns, it might turn out to be worse for the boy to be as hell as a "Roadside Romeo", or be a "Classy and sophisticated person", or just curse his parents for sending him there. But this depends on the CHOICE we make to mold ourselves. These are our choices and not anyone else's implication on us. There is no one forcing us to become something that they want, it is rather us to decide what we should do instead. We may choose to become and have result of either feeling proud or regretting the whole life of what you made out of it.
The boy when got home touched his parent's feet, and just said one line: "Thank you for making me what I am, I did went on the wrong path, of hating you for sending me there forcefully, for not believing in myself and for constantly feeling that i was useless for you." And he almost was on tears. He could imagine all those things that had happened with him during the years of his education away from home. and to that his parents just said, "There was a simple reason we sent you, because you should know what the world wants from you, instead of us piling our decisions on you. it was on you of what you wanted out of you and staying away from you was hardest thing we faced. But we wanted you to realize what you want to make out of your life."
The moral is, a parent is not responsible if they have sent you out and you get spoiled. It was your choice to choose your path, and if in case you realize that you are on wrong path and still continue to take it, its your choice again to get yourself there. I dint say parents should always be awarded to be right, It simply means, your parents are just doing their duty. and your duty is to make your life in such a way that they dint have to guide you anymore.
If they treat you like a kid, and you still need their shelter for every small thing(I mean everything, and not talking about their care and those pampering advice, or if you ask out of respect), you then need to grow, not physically but mentally.
Make sure whenever you go home, may it be from work of friends, they should not be worried about you, but should be happy to see you and have a faith of your growth in you. And this is only an act to be done by you. So let's go home, to a home where you find peace and joy, to the best corner of this whole world, where you see yourself to be yourself. Lets go home and celebrate the success you have made in the day. Lets go home with the lessons you learnt in the whole day.
