A capture from Pottery town, Bangalore… Titled - Upbringing. These hands made me think a lot.. Donno why, this is one of my favorite shots also.. Will share my thoughts with you guys..
Without the touch of a hand, clay cannot take the shape of a vessel… or what ever it is…. It is the dream and imagination of the one who shapes it decides the destiny of the clay being modeled… It may take the shape of an idol, or a vessel, of a small lamp… The creator mixes his sweat with imagination to shape it up… Same is the case with each and every one of us… We are what our parents have made us.. If our parents have taught us to dream high, we will reach heights.. If our parents have restricted us saying that you cannot do it… You are never gonna achieve it… Check the history, gr8 personalities are all persons who had high and free thinking… gr8 personalities are all born for gr8 parents who let their minds free to think… who did not put a limit on their child’s thoughts and dreams.. So the next time, when you put a restriction on your kid’s thoughts, think twice… Your child is nothing anything less than any other child in the world… You are nothing less than anyone else in the world.. Every one of us was of the same size and shape, when we were born.. What makes everyone different is their thoughts.. Think high… dream high.. .teach your children to dream high.. donot limit their imagination.. One day you may become famous as his/her parent.. They may be another Sachin Tendulkar or Sania Mirza or M F Hussain in the nutshell… Who knows… ?

PS: I borrow the words of the gr8 visionary, our former President - A P J Abdul Kalam sir… “Dream is not what you see in sleep, dream is the thing which does not let you sleep.”
Oh, what a shot dost?
Great shot Febin!! A great peice of art!!
wonderful thoughts with great imagination……pic is too gud…..
gr8 thoughts as well as the pic.However….you will agree that everyone cannot be a sachin tendulkar or a sania mirza.so the parents have to restrict the child in persuing a career together with a passion which may not necessarily be a career.
acche vichaar hai
