An open letter to my daughter

One fine morning (very early morning actually..) on November, 7 years back, the heavens decided to bestow  upon me the biggest blessing of my life. To earth you came, all tiny and cute, and my life has never been the same after that. You are growing up fast and before I blink you would be ready to open your wings and fly away to take on the world.My words may not make much sense to you now in your innocent world full of cartoons, story books and coloring books. Maybe 10 years down the line you will understand it better. Nevertheless, I want you to assimilate few principles and thoughts as you grow up. Be kind  : It is not what we get from the world that people will remember, it is what we gave it back. Be kind to people. Be kind to the lady in the school bus who helps you board the bus today.Be kind to the janitor whom you may find cleaning the ladies room of your office tomorrow.Be kind and don’t bargain with the street side vendor who is standing in the scorching sun...
