AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER

Why alcohol is connected to freedom? These days, just to prove a point people, specially women too have started drinking in the name of freedom 😡 but isn’t real freedom not needing a drink to be happy ? Isn’t real freedom that I don’t need a drink to forget my problems because like an adult one has solved them or faced them ? 

Yes the sign of an adult is that one faces the challenge, tries to understand the real problem and finds healthy ways of dealing with it, in fact growing through it. Alcohol is never a solution. It only complicates the problem further.  We Indians believe in the continuity of progress beyond one life. The threads we spin today catch us in its web tomorrow.  Hence one should be careful about one’s actions. But much of humanity today is weak and easily allows evil to take hold and grip our mind and heart and soul.

Affectionately,

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]
