A photo linking four generations.( Read full; wrote something after along on this Grandparents day)

The person in the photo is my maternal great-grandmother (meri nani ji ki mummy).

A few days back, she came to meet me and stayed with us for a few days.

I took her to my office. Walking slowly, she was observing, meeting other people, and showering blessings on everyone and everything present there.
She didn’t ask about any materialistic details, nor did she care about them. Her only expression was "Accha h beta, sab badiya hai; sab khush raho, bhagwan ashirwad banaye rakhe"

Jab vo waha par thi to maine feel kiya ki jeevan ki saari uplabhdhi, success, faliure aur sab kuch ek taraf aur jo satisfaction unhe khush dekhkar hua tha uska experience ek taraf hai.
Kuch blessings ekdum divine hoti hain, kuch touches aise feel hote hain jaise swayam Bhagwan ne chhoo diya ho. Kuch log aapke liye aise khus hote hai ki vo shayad khud ke liye bhi itna khus nahi hote ho; or ye sab kuch maine us din anubhav kar liya.
Kamyab ladke ko sab sweekar kar lete hain, par agar mai nakamyab hota to mujhe sweekar karne wale log bahut kam hote, aur unmein se ek mere grandparents hote.✨

Do you know what is the best part is about grandparents and their love?
Unke liye aap kabhi bade nahi hote ho.
Aapke parents, friends or baaki relative ki nazro m aap umar or apne kaam ke sath bade hote jaate ho, unka behavior aapke sath change ho jaata h, par jab bat aati hai aapke grandparents ki toh jo love, affection and basic nature of relation aapke beech m rehta hai vo hamesha hi ek jaisa hota hai. Constant and infinite.

Aaj grandparents day hai, maine aapne Baa ( Dadaji), Buji ( Dadiji ), Nanaji ko bhout jaldi kho diya tha. Unke saath utna samay nahi bita paaya. Rishto ko gehrayi se nahi samajh paaya.
Aaj jab life ko thoda samjha hai, to dil karta h ki kaash aaj vo hote.
Vo mujhe dekhte to unhe kaisa lagta?
Unse baate karta.
Uhne batata ki mai kya karta hu, kaise karta hu.
Unse puchta ki wo kya karte the?
Jab vo meri umar ke the tab vo kaise or kya kya karte the ?
Aaj mere pass puchne ko bhout saare sawal hai, batane ko bhout saari baate hai par afsos sirf ye hai ki aaj vo nahi hai.

I miss the opportunity that I could have expressed. Some voids are so deep that you regret them the most.
The point of explaining this is that one day everyone has to leave this world. The law of nature says that if our grandparents are aging, they are closer to the doors of heaven and have relatively less time left on Earth.

One day when they will leave you, you will miss them; instead, go, take out some time, and talk to them.

One day you will cry for them; instead, go and laugh with them today.

One day you will feel you could have spent some more time with them; instead, go and meet them today.

One day you will offer flowers to their photo; instead, go and give them a rose today, a complementary hug, and a few words of gratitude. I can assure you that you are going to get back a few "Gili pappiya" as a return gift for sure.

I have a learning: Life humbles you. As you grow old, you stop chasing the big things and start valuing the little things. I request you to do a little thing: If you have grandparents, go wish them and capitalize on this opportunity.
You will realize what true happiness stands for.

Happy Grandparents Day ❤
