Of Gods, Parents and Perspectives - Right Perpectives, if we are in the Right Hands!!

The very reason why we, are what we are at our own places, is due to those people who are responsible for our physical as well as mental being. We are creatures due to our creators!! From Chromosomes to "life-o-somes", the feeling of being an existant part of this world, I can say "I" because of these people, PARENTS!!

Everyone has their own percerption of GOD. The very first thought that might have created God in our minds or in the whole wide world is the probable reason that GOD is the creator of this whole world. We make this statement, even after being just one of the n number of creatures and things, whether living or non-living, in this big place. Our source of creation is only limited to one stage above us, though the main source is always carried from one generation to other. The so called "Generation" in itself tells us what it means. What I mean to say here is, perspective!! GOD, the creator for us, is in PARENTS. Lets be practical, the cause of our existance is coz of the creator!! Some deem it as GOD, I call them MOM n DAD!!

Life makes us pass thru all such ages, from adolescent age to back to "stone" age. This is a natural cycle ofcourse!! The time before and after these two ages respectively is the time which is not in our control. But what is in our control is the time between it. In this time, everyone has their own view of how to spend their time. Ofcourse all this, somehow depends on how we have been taught, as to how should we be spending it. The matter is not spending but HOW we are spending it. Now, again, here comes a very subjective factor on each and every person's mind. Everyone have their own set of rules and ways to live lives, in the end, what matters is how happy we have been spending this time.

These "set of rules" are formed as a result of the moulds that we are put in when we are growing. So a lot depends on what kind of shape we get in, by the time we get our own lives in our own hands. Perpective again comes in, here!! Actually, perpective is always there... For some, it is the same trend that will be followed which is exisiting, for some trend means something which is to be set "afresh" (either for the sake of it, with due respect to it, or due to disagreement), this goes on for every Generation. Thats why even a trend is said to be "Generated", and so the a new GENERATION is formed, to carry its own ways to live, forward!

For this whole cycle to start running, the main factor is our "derivation". The very ability of creating rules for ourselves, setting trends, living Life, and stuff, comes from the derivation, defnition, set in us by our PARENTS!! But, PARENTS are not the only ones who give us birth, PARENTS are our potters!! they are the ones who mould us into what we end up in!! No matter how much we vary from being what we were supposed to be, our BIOS settings are the same. Our genes are the same, our engines are the same!! A Maruti can be modified into a merc or vice versa by changes in the body, but what remains inside is somewhere the same. Noone can become either.

Then there are some types who defy what i said, they never are the persons, they were supposed to be, thats because, the potter was some other source. In our Society, PARENTS are meant to be the biological parents who have the ultimate responsibility to bring us up. But, its not always like that. The upbringing is not only by the parents but also by the surrounding. Everyone have their brains to think, to conclude, to form opinions, one breach in the firewall of our systems and there goes the virus!! The breach is somewhere not the responsibility of the PARENTS, but its the other PARENTS, who do this. Soceity as it is called, has a good and also has a bad side, where good is difficult to inculcate but the success in the end, and BAD is the easiest to get it into us but Worst in the end. This is what normally our PARENTS mould us into, the ability to identify things on our own, as to what is good and what is bad.

AGAIN comes PERSPECTIVE!! What is good, is not necessarily good for u, and same in the case of BAD. So there is the root cause of people having distinct identities. Not only do we look different than each other but also think different than each other. The "Chemical Locha" in our minds is the most advanced system that even we havent been able to explore fully till now. But for the part that we know, we surely have to accept one thing, OUR PARENTS are the ones from whom we learn to actually have a PERSPECTIVE, in the first place.

All those people who have never been even close to their parents due to their PERSPECTIVES have to accept one fact that the ability of disagreeing and having a perpective has been sown by their own parents.

For me GOD means "Source of inspiration". For me Parents mean "Source of inspiration", PARENTS are my GOD!! May sound like an exaggeration, but in this time where everything is seen from the angle of Convenience, this definition of mine would be applicable in any era and times.

I can say - I am What I am!! only because someone taught me the meaning of "I". My PARENTS!!
