I was reminded that last year it was only mother and me who made preparations for Deepavali, this was because dad was in the hospital at that time and it was down to me to play the role of the family head. its was not a very memorable moment but it was still something i have at the back of my head.
This year, we are making a different, when dad decided to make the festival of light bigger then before. this means an open house after the annual prayers for our ancestors. We will be sharing the joy of life with family and friends, and giving thanks to the heavens above for giving us light to move forward.
I was looking for some Deepavali music on YouTube, because I'm not really a big fan of the Indian/Tamil songs as I'm not familiar to my native language. i found this very heart felt clip.
and I want to share this clip with all of you and i hope this inspires you to spread your wings and fly.
The clips starts with the young father, under-educated, very Little opportunity, but very optimistic, You can see that from the constant times he work overtime to give the best he can for his son. Even when society or life do not give it to him, he finds other ways for his love ones, his son. ( Boss, if I make more money, I will buy him more books ) reminds you of parents pushing us to get study right.
Its still up to us, our passion, our desire, our dedication and our love for what we want. like the son who is now a man, he got to live his dream, with his fathers sacrifice.
You parents may not buy you a plane, but they can buy you books.
You parents may not be able to make you fly, but they can give you wings.
Use your wings, and remember the ones that gave them to you.
