Story excerpts from Mahatria reading....
Jothsna was in her early 30's when she had her first child, beautiful was that moment when she held her little Agasthya. She loved him to the core from that very moment, she promised to be the best mother ever. Both she and her husband as parents, ensured they be the best ever in their roles and ensured they gave better quality of life to Agasthya, than they ever had for themselves. Both with utmost dedication committed every moment of their life to Agasthya.
Little Agasthya grew up to be a 2yrs old, started becoming more and more fond of his parents and started understanding the utmost love that they shared for him. He would do anything to gain their appreciation. He started talking little little things, he started showing gestures of love. Parents Jothsna and her husband were on top of the world. Little Agasthya, as he grew up - he was a great student in his class, always first grades. He was great in sports, always medals. He was first in his high school, he went up to do higher studies, made it big, always was a star in his parents eyes. Parents were always on 'top of the world' because of Agasthya's success. Agasthya in the process, for his studies and career, he had gone far away from his parents, missed them dearly all the time.
He wanted to ensure he settles down fast in his life and give that same love / affection 10 folds as his parents gave him while he was growing up. Agasthya is now married and has a little Agasthya, he is on top of his world and sharing this news with his parents was the ultimate moment for him. He wants his parents to come and stay with him, and wants to ensure he does 10 folds to his parents to share his happiness and success of life. The parents, Jothsna and her husband, are on top of the world to stay close to their only Agasthya.
But, in this entire process in their life, Jothsna and her husband had forgotten one important thing - importance of health when required. They had neglected so much that their body is not permitting them to accept the invitation from their only son, Agasthya. Their body is not responding to the required travel, they are unable to enjoy their little one's success. This is hurting Agasthya a lot because he loves his parents and wants to do so much for them, he wants them to be part of his success. But he is helpless, at the least he can do is to provide good health care and that's about it.
Now, had it been that - Jothsna and her husband had taken good care of their health in the process of bringing up Agasthya, they could have stood by their beloved Agasthya throughout his life's success.
"What is the point if your body doesn't permit you to be with your loved ones? "
If you love your family, you will not be an old-age nuisance to your family. You alone have complete CONTROL over your health, it's in your hands to take good care of your body or not. You are the inspiration to your child to adapt to a life style that you show you lead.
You become the living inspiration to the little world around you.
"Abusing the GIFT is abusing the GIVER. Cherishing the GIFT is cherishing the GIVER" (human body is the ultimate gift from the supreme, cherish it!)
Happy Life!!!
