Mann Haali

Kaahe Mann Tu Dolta

My thoughts lately:

‘Mujhme mera kuch nahi, sabh tuhi tuhi’ 😊

Some people say that the more you pray, the more you suffer, the more you detach from the people you love, and the more diseases you’ll have. They also say that you may not get what you asked for, which is believed to burn karma. It’s better to accept everything, even against your will, gracefully and let those who want to leave go. I won’t beg or chase those who don’t want to stay.

If I ever have a daughter, I hope she will have a healthy relationship with her father just like I do — sometimes fights, but built on deep love and trust.

I hope he’ll be firm about her upbringing — giving her everything she needs, all the freedom she deserves, and the space to make mistakes and learn from them. But I also hope she understands that she can’t have everything she asks for. Sometimes, “No” must stay a “No,” no matter how much she cries or throws tantrums — because boundaries are one of life’s greatest teachers. Above all, I hope her father is both strict and soft — that he disciplines her without ever making her feel unloved. I hope he sets her standards so high that no man can impress her with material things, because she’ll already know what real love, respect, and protection feel like.

But today I feel a lil sad, I really felt the lack of knowledge in myself 😞. I haven’t read many books, and there’s so much I don’t know about the world. I hope her father will fill that gap — help her gain knowledge, instill values I may lack, and guide her in ways I sometimes wish I had been guided. It hurts to feel so unaware sometimes, knowing there are topics people can discuss that I have no clue about. I feel so lacking — and I hope he can give her what I’ve missed. 

My own parents weren’t very educated, yet they gave the best they could. My heart is so full of gratitude, and I am proud of them for being such great parents. They tried their best, within their knowledge and means. I am just trying my best to make them proud — and also the one — I remember promised that I will make him proud too.
