“There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow”

“There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow”.

                       

           I am comfortable and cosy as I live along with my parents who adore me so much. Nothing to worry about as I’m satisfied with the basic needs, But when it comes to decisions related to me it’s really a debate at home between Me and my Parents. Finally what they have decided becomes the verdict and I have to follow that .......Hmmm!

                I was filled with bewilderment, am I an individual.  Do I have perceptions  and  desires  in my  life ? why do they don’t understand  me .When  we go for shopping I cannot choose my desire brands I prefer , choosing  my shirt and trousers  incredible !

                They do it for me no liberty in choosing the colour I am fond of.  Mother I’m going to wear it  I used to say her ,never in a loud  voice I only used to mutter , She disciplines  me  ,she squeezes me , she stands helpless  unable to control me  some times . I can never argue with her, her love for me was so great , Whenever  my mother  hugs me I feel warm ,it is the same warmth  of the womb that encased me .She poured out her love to me , she shaped me . I can never imagine of going against her. I do remember the day she helped me to come out. Her Zest for life was enriched. But I always used think, when will I grow up and earn my livelihood. As an individual I need independence to be more competitive. I like to renew myself in the areas in which I’m engrossed with..

                        But when my mother talks to me about her childhood , she used to say that her father was authoritative person  she  was very very  obedient child  listened to her father  whenever  he commanded, she  had high regards  for  him and  she adds that it’s because  her father was tough to her and because of  that  she was able to accomplish  her career . She tells me that parents always prefer the best and good for their children whom their love. I do agree with her   proclamation after days and months after analysing that parents help is needed for every child without them it’s meaningless.  When I travel along with them.  She breathed life into her life .She dreamt about my future . “There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow” . There is no need to be self reliant as she travels along with me
