Some Kids never GROW Up!! :P

Well, the other day I was talking to somebody about something and he said ‘Some kids never grow up’... Although, the statement was made for somebody else... It somehow clicked me.... How apt it is for me too! :P

So, I wanna analyse myself to clarify why I can relate myself more with kids... :P

How I define kids-Kids are innocent, naughty, immature, quick learners, open to different things and experiences. They cry their heart out on everything they don’t like.... They instantly get attached to the people they like without knowing much about them.... And then they find it very difficult to let them go... Kids are not very receptive to things they don’t like or being told to do... And they love doing whatever they like whether it’s about watching cartoons, running around inside/outside the house, showing their toys to friends, or just playing football outside... They are strongly attached to their family...

Now,comes the comparison part...Yes, I am not so innocent but I am naughty, Learning.. yes, open to experiences -yes, live to the extremes- yes, find it impossible to control my emotions- yes, and I cry exactly like kids :P....., I get attached to people easily and find it almost impossible to detach myself... (Something I truly hate about myself), yup... I rebel... I love doing whatever I like at whatever time.... And of course how can I miss my love for cartoons... :P

I can again do something like SWOT.... But it won’t be the best thing to do... So, here I’ll recall the words of my last boss... He once said “we work for 3 things in life- Personal growth, Professional growth and Monetary growth...” So, I’ll evaluate my reactions/way of handling situations on these 3 points...

Starting with the personal aspect.... I am too small to be mature... I like something means I like something and I want it... If I don’t get it... I don’t fight... but I cry... then.... I try to forget.... but it’s not that easy... May be I lack rationality.... I am dumber than normal people in terms of handling my emotions... And I hate it.... These are the things generally expected from grownups.... So, here I am more like kids.... Yes, I am too simple and clear.

Professional aspect.... I find it difficult to separate my personal and professional love... I love my work I get involved in it.... And it hurts me with equal intensity like personal matters do... I attach myself emotionally to my work which in turn affects me in negative manner at times... I don’t wanna go into the details of it....

Money... My favourite topic to talk about.... in case of money matters I am like a spoilt kid who wants every candy in the supermarket and blessed with some decent amount of money.... Since, I earn, I spend a lot.... A lot like.... I just mentioned I want every candy in the supermarket for myself & my loved ones and I got the money.... but again, I am left with something or the other which is always added to my wish list to buy for which I wait for my next pay cheque ;-).... So, my savings part remains nil always... But I always enjoy myself... And get myself whatever I like.... that’s What I earn money for... ;-)

The best part of being a kid is.... You are close to God, nature, people, happiness and positivity.... You enjoy every little thing in life... Every happy moment and you love doing things for others with a self less heart.... Although, I am self centred at times.... but I crazily love people whom I attached to.... I m blessed with the best parents in the world, best brothers and some really good people around me.... And for that I always thank God!

God... I know for you I am always your little grown up kid.... Oh Sorry... Some kids never grow up.... :P

But anyways... this kid will always be thankful to you.... And love you... And need you by her side always.... Muaah :-)

Discipline and Me!!

Well... Most of us have heard about discipline in schools, colleges, institutions, life and offices.... But, I really... really wanna figure out what it exactly means...

Today, I had a discussion over it with somebody... I love to talk over anything though but I don’t appreciate it much when I am being told to commercialise my blog or something about how to take further my love for photography... And I actually don’t think I need to have discipline in my life when it comes to the things I really love to do..... I love doing things at odd hours... by skipping my meals or sacrificing my sleep... And that’s the fun in doing the stuff you love....

Sometimes, we just wanna enjoy certain things beyond the boundaries.... Hit the unknown... explore everything to the extent beyond one’s imagination... And there I feel... discipline binds us to stick to something inside the boundaries.... Can you imagine a bird with a discipline...?? No, I can’t... :P And let me clarify being systematic and being disciplined are two different things... Again, in my opinion....

Someone told me.... discipline is in doing things you love on a regular basis... Well, I need to know... Can we materialise love? Regularly is what.... I love playing cricket I play it.... I don’t feel I need to decide certain hours and can’t play beyond that... Or I love writing blog so I should write it like a monthly magazine whether... I feel like or not. It’s like forcing a poet to write poetry without a mood... Or to compel a painter to paint something.... Art is beautiful only when it’s made up of creativity and creativity comes only when you love doing it at your convenience..... It’s like forcing someone to fall in love with something because it’s supposed to be done :P

Discipline in that sense means you can’t play cricket for 10 hours in a day because you need to do other things too... but then what will be the fun in that? If a cricket lover can actually spare 10 hours once in a month or 2-3-4 times in a month to play what’s wrong in that?? And if he can’t take out time or don’t feel like doing is he/she being indisciplined? If this is being disciplined I am way happier being indisciplined. :P

I don’t criticise what different people think about discipline in life but in my opinion... It’s just being happy.... doing things systematically in your way without harming others, setting goals and achieving them... and taking care of your well being- spiritually, mentally and physically... Rest everything is allowed.. :P

I dunno whether I am disciplined or not as per others... In my opinion, I am... Except for my work out routine.... and food habits.... and sleep routine.... and meditation.... and meeting my friends... and few more things.... I am well organised.... ;-) but, then, I am human... I don’t wanna live like a machine... Yes, I need to do things I love but not for the sake of discipline but for my madness for it... :-)

God... Thanks for giving me this life and people around me.... I am really grateful to you.... Stand by my side..... I Love you... :-)
