This morning en route to work I saw a lemony green chord hanging from the USB port( in my car). It reminded me of my son's passion for music and more so of his passion of wanting to share it with me..I chuckled to myself. Each trip of his he brings me a piece of his world, his life to share with me.. When I reflect I remember that I have resisted listening to new numbers or singers unknown to me ( obviously I know very very very little). I try to whine and mumble that I am better off with the oldies. But he would make me listen and of course almost instantly I fall in love with this collection. After all it is a piece of him! Today as I pondered ( Pondering happened a lot today thanks to heavy traffic) I thought that every child beckons his/her parents to his/her world through such little acts.. Let us not hesitate to enter their world..  For what is lost can never be gained..

Xmas is a season of cheer..it's the season of loving and sharing. Often we speak of it but do not ponder over such acts. We take it for granted, like the love of parents, love of siblings, love of children, friends etc. I feel particularly proud today when I hold the prestigious iPhone4S!! I am a mere teacher with a meager salary yet I am a proud owner of this sleek gadget.. I received it as my XMAS  gift from my son. For the first few days I toyed with it, played with it and took the gift for granted.  This morning ( my enlightening moment) en route to work I pondered over this gift. I realized how selfless my son is. He has been consistently gifting me the latest cellular phones while he uses an older version or the run of the mill kind!  Would I ever be able to match his selflessness? This season he has enriched my soul..

Cradled amidst the Rugged and war torn Aravallis Lies the city of lakes. Her soil fashioned Men of valour and Women of beauty. Home to majesty and grandeur, Brilliant hues and strokes This city shimmers and gleams Beckoning us with Sunny warmth and hospitality..
