The universe will give you back your flowers
Hi little one,
Yes, I know it's been a long long time since I wrote to you. A lot has been going on in my life and I have learnt a few things in the process. I just wanted to share one very important lesson I learnt.
Unless, you have inferred from the previous letters, your old man is a hopeless romantic and I hope you grow up to be one too. I hope you receive and also give the brightest flowers of your heart to the altar of the ones you love. I gave it to someone too, along with some beautiful lines from my most favourite voice - Md Rafi. But sadly, the universe had other plans, and someone got angry and I had to throw the flowers in the dustbin and the lines were smudged by my tears. I felt that this world has no place for people like you or me.
But, you see life delights and surprises us if our actions have been from a pure heart. After a few months, someone gave me flowers and I got my flowers back from the dustbin and straight into my heart. So you see, if you do anything will pure intentions, I feel the universe will give you back what you lost. You just have to give it some time to figure it out how.
Many of us do not see the beautiful rangoolis the universe creates with all of us as flowers. We should be more open and observant of how the universe plucks and then plants so many people of varied colour, size and shape into our lives.
Yours forever,
Dad
P.S - Never turn down flowers from someone, disagree with them because you want to. But, please never turn get angry at someone who brings you flowers.
