Last two days were the days we always long for during the whole week. The Weekend. :)
After a long tiring week , as usual I was planning to be extremely lazy during the weekend by sleeping , cooking special dishes, eating , watching TV or go out for a movie. But , my son , Mikhail sensed that the weekend has arrived because me and my husband were at home and did not leave for office like week days. He was delighted , excited and thrilled to have us the whole day. He was laughing , shouting and jumping the whole day. We were doing all sorts of things to make him sleep, so that we can have some time for ourselves to relax. But he did not. He was just super happy because we were there for him whole day !! By late evening , both of us were very exhausted after playing with him whole day, just because we did not get our afternoon nap. We got a feeling that the whole weekend finished just by playing with him and not by doing our favorite hobbies which helps us to relax. But his energy levels of fun did not lower down.. still his eyes were twinkling with delight, longing to play more.
Finally after dinner, he curled up inside my chest and went to sleep. I heaved a sigh of relief. I looked at his face and realized that God has really created us in the purest form.
Look at Mikhail. He really knows to count his blessings. He made most of the time he had with us ! As we get more and more brains , we start understanding negative things better than positive things..and over the course of many years , we become impure souls !
If Mikhail was an adult today , we (me and my hubby) would have been taken for granted during the weekend, and if he knew and understood the fact that we were tired of playing with him , it would have hurt him so much, and it would have some negative effect on his mind and hence his nature !
But now , at very young age, kids can see only positive energy around , don't really mind anything , make the most of their time, don't keep anything bottled up in their hearts. And.... hence they look so charming and attractive, skin so soft , eyes so bright, and so full of energy !
As they grow up , they will start taking things for granted, won't be valuing the present situation they are in , they will soon start having egos/sentiments which will eventually start hurting them, they will start feeling jealousy for other peers, lose valuable relationships, and then start feeling lonely.
Is it all worth it ? As intelligent beings , are we being really intelligent ?
