You can not forget this.

Twinkle twinkle little stars!

How I wonder what you are,

Up above the world so high,

Now, hold there, I do not agree to this

Not anymore.

To behold such light, such promise, such joy, such innocence, such hope, such immense possibility in front of you and below the sky.

You don’t want to listen them sing – up above…

They are the children of joy!!

One smile and they can make you cry for your own childhood,

One question and they make you doubt all that you have learnt in life, One small step you take and the tiredness of the whole journey is gone,

One call and they make you to listen to your own voice, one look and they make you love and live life again.

If there is one thing that is extremely special and even more unique to these tiny toddlers is – possibility. They don’t have the past, they are bound by no shackles of past, they are not any ‘types’, they are not cast permanently into any mould. They have just one way to look, only one way to walk on, and only one way to think about – the way ahead.

Ever wonder why is that we always want to become kids again?

Possiblity – On dot !! We increasingly associate that word with negative connotation and used euphemistically to say NO. Say ‘No’ to those very things, which once we gave the highest place in our own worlds – Dreams. Possibilities decrease in increasing order as we become ‘older’ / ‘more mature’ / ‘practical in life’.

The kids of Time!!

No technicalities, no probabilities, no practicalities, no ‘realisticalities’, no considerations, no issues, no bullshitting-simply put!

Just the purity of their will and the Will of Is. That is what shapes their possibilities. May their possibilities express themselves fully!!
