irony of life!!

Well it is so ironical that we can predict same message throughout our life from one simple incident from the past. Like father teaching his daughter how to ride a bicycle...

I still remember that day when my dad bought me a bicycle, I was happy, I was amazed. At that time the only priority was to learn how to ride it... dad got stoppers fixed in my cycle and told me to ride. I was hell scared. I told dad to hold me from behind so that i do not fall. He obliged. I was happy riding it safely and excited about riding it as fast as i can... then. After few days dad came and told me to remove one stopper, i was scared again, he again held me from behind. I was happy riding fast again... i learnt how to ride with one stopper and started enjoying it. Then after few days dad again came and told me to ride without stopper... i was so scared that i remembered my first day of riding with stoppers. Dad again held me from behind and i started riding again and this time i wanted to ride faster and faster but dad was not able to run that fast so without telling me he left me from behind and without even realising that i am riding alone i rode faster and faster, then when i looked back with a smiling face i realised it was me who was riding alone and dad was standing there watching his daughter riding with a smiling face.

This was so similar with the instances that came in my life and every time before taking one step forward I remembered of this time.

At that time i didn't realise, dad did all that intentionally to let me explore and learn.

Now when I had crossed each and every stage I realised what my dad wanted to say at that time...

Is it not same when dad dropped me for the first time to the school gate and i was scared and crying...at time also he was saying the same thing " GO daughter explore your world, its new life and it's waiting you"?

Is it not same when dad dropped me at the college gate with a smiling face and i was scared...at that time also he was saying the same thing " GO daughter explore your world, its new life and it's waiting you"?

Is it not same when after marriage dad gave hand in the guys hand and i was scared...at that time also he was saying the same thing " GO daughter explore your world, its new life and it's waiting for you”?

How ironical it is. One instance gave meaning to every step of the life's ladder that i climbed...

  1. Well first of all I think the thought is really amazing and so true.
    "Irony/Ironical"may not be the right word that describes your experiences here."Deja Vu"perhaps with a twist where the situation is new but the message being conveyed you feel is exactly the same and so are the actors(you & Dad) in the whole scene.
    Keep the thoughts coming.
