Today is his day. His strength was simplicity but his plans were far more than just being simple. He had the whole world at his feet...he still gets them there.
I don't know much about him. There is another person who is closer to me than him. This person wears a shirt, yes. He wears a pair of slippers while going out and his goals are not as grand as that of our nation's father...And to me, he is the simplest person on this earth. I haven't met a more simpler, down to earth person than him. I am talking about my father.
I know two simple people.
One is of course the Mahatma.
The other one is someone who can give his life for me.
Today, I am glad to have reached my native place and am thoroughly enjoying his company. The more time I spend with him, the more I am getting convinced that I have complicated my life due to the numerous wants & wishes and have complicated my life over the years.
Here is raising a toast to the two simple humans I know...one not so well...and specially to the other one, who is such a major part of my life but from whom I have mentally drifted away over these years.
I am determined to take a goal or two...back with me to Bangalore...and make my life more meaningful.
