This is email send to me by 11 year old son (while he was in different city holidaying with his Mom) , this mail made me feel as if he was right in front of me, it’s a letter but defies space time continuum its has come out from the innocence of a kid, while an adult might not even think to inform such a thing, similarly it has touched the innocent in me, because I felt like that the way I did. We while writing unconsciously think we have to frame it write it properly and the news has to be worth while, which we do not while talking. I had written two lines

‘वक़्त इतना हो चला है ,सब सुना सुना सा लगे

सबसे पुराने दोस्त हो कुछ तो नया सुनाओ' inspired by similar feeling in a different way. These lines in the mail are open, open like a child’s heart, in his mind the physical distance has not made a difference, he will not miss me, he will play ,cry, ask for things normally the way he would do here, but when he will meet me it will be clear he was away from me, very clear, the enlightenment which we seek is there in a kid normally, their mad dependence is rooted in independence, which makes it fulfilling for both, the giver and the receiver. Personally I feel its much much more beneficial to the giver, thats why I think bible somewhere says, Giving is Receiving.

Love you my son, you are a precious gift from God. Hope to learn more and more from you.
