They say GROW UP when they mean GROW YOUNG


Ever seen a toddler giggling with his heart out? Nothing can be more soothing than his laughter and nothing can be truer than his innocent tears.

Ever experienced the life-enriching feeling when an unknown child looks at you in a crowd and gives you a hearty smile? The child doesn't know the art of concealing his feelings. That makes him dearer and more charming.

This is how God created each of us with innocence, purity and truth. But as we grew, we wrapped the gift with ego and masked our beautiful faces with artificialism.

"Growing up" is synonymous to being yourself - simple & pure. It's understanding the essence of life in small and beautiful moments. Growing up is taking life easy just like a child does. He doesn't carry the burden of hard feelings to the next day. Growing up is being spontaneous - If you love someone, express it. If you hate an act, say it.


You would be thinking, what if I feel like slapping someone hard or bursting out my anger without giving a second thought as that would probably be a spontaneous act ? Would that be appropriate ? The answer would be an obvious No. Because growing up gives us a natural sense of wisdom, maturity and tactfulness. These should be reflected in parallel when our true self is manifested.

So if you haven't grown up yet, close your eyes and see the child in you. You'll find, growing up is the easiest and the most amazing experience of life !!
