AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

I wish to pursue my hobbies like music🎵, sports🏏. But due to the pressure of getting a job by my parents, I must only focus on studying. What to do?

Since your parents are perhaps not supportive of your interests, the first thing necessary is to become financially independent. You should look for a job, possibly in government sector which will provide you with security and a stable base as well as give you time to pursue your hobby. It should not be so difficult to get into bank or railways. Later as you grow you can gradually transit slowly towards making your hobby as your main job. Don’t be impatient or in a hurry. The road to perfection and lasting success is not a shortcut but comes through painstaking perseverance.

With prayers for success in your endeavours.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

My niece who is 12 yrs old doesn’t like sharing😥. If she takes her favorite food to school and her friends ask her to share, she doesn’t give or gives a very small piece. If by chance she happens to share a chocolate with girls she doesn’t like, she wants to snatch it away. She is attached to Krishna, and only thing that pacifies her is when we tell her that Krishna likes if she shares what He has given her. She says “I know it’s bad, i know it’s a devil that says this, but I can’t overpower it. It tells me that those girls did bad and said bad things about you, instead of that you shared your things, now you go steal something from them. Or I keep thinking what will I get if I give them”..[conti]
