Well it was a cascade of events which lead me to write this entry, I was at my grocery store purchasing my day to day stuff, when a kid on to his father lap came in too, the father handed him a hundred note to give over, but because I was the one standing next to him and was the closest, he offered me instead. When his father corrected him to hand it to the gentleman on the other side of the counter; the guy handed him his one litre milk, and returned the change which the kid happily accepted and they left. Well nothing fancy or strange, but having attended a seminar a few months back on Project Management our trainer narrated a similar incident (only in this case the story continued; read on..) the child similarly was asked to hand over the money to the guy behind the counter in return for some stuff; (and the kid got a learning), next time the family was paid a visit by some relatives of theirs and the old member had brought him some choclates which the kid took, after some time he returned back and handed over our old uncle a fifty "This is for the choclates". The mom blushed and told "No beta, that’s your uncle", the kid perplexed and maybe he added something to his verbiage or understanding.

The lesson for us, children in their growing years need to be told the right answers for their own sake, and their silly questions shouldn't be looked over just because they are kids only then will they learn to ask the right questions later on, only then will they get a correct understanding of the things around, only then will they not interpret themselves. I have seen many people simply ignore their children queries simply because they are busy in other chores or these silly rhetoric doesn’t fit in their schedule; but the same people would go out lengths to spend a fortune for their child's education. I guess the education starts at home and at a very basic level. I remember I read a book about a person whose mom only asked his son one thing its not whether he answered the questions asked; but whether he could ask one good question that day.

It because a child looks at a problem/statement at its basic nature is he/she able to understand it at its core; its the reason why children are said to be wise; but as we grow we complex the questions and thus the answers. But that was on a totally different note. Coming to our adult world also our world is simply a quest to evolve through the various question and to know things around. Only the context changes.

I just thought to pay the quote world a visit, and here are some gud ones:
