Today is one of those days when I feel like shit. I feel I have wasted my entire life. I could have been better. I would have earned more. I could have done a lot of things. But right now I am just helpless. I don't want to be helpless. Probably, I need a mentor but no mentor will guide me. I am a heavy kite that can go out of control in strong winds and lesser winds won't work for me. I need to work on something. Please tell me, do you have any idea?
When a baby giraffe is born, the mother kicks it until it stands and starts walking. A mother duck practically pushes a duckling into the water. I am sure most animals resort to some sort of "cruelty" on their offspring. They want their babies to walk and even dash as they have a risk of survival. However, humans have created a cozy community around their offspring, which induces protection until the child is fully developed. A human child takes 12-18 months to just walk. Doing regular human things will take many years. Following my post, we subjected our child to two more ordeals where his patience was tested. But now he can digest failure. Failure doesn't break him but pushes him to try harder next time. We failed this time, but less severely than before. Next time, we will win.
