Spirituality Information - The Only Thing That My Father Did Right by Vish Writer
The title should have read " The Only Thing I Thought That My Father Did Right" .
I was lucky to be born in a religious environment. My parents used to get up at 4.00 am in the morning and the first thing I and my brother was told after we got up was to see the image of Lord Krishna kept in the pooja(worship) room. We had to follow this same ritual of seeing the image of the Lord before we went to bed . Till date i have been following this ritual. It was the best habit my parents inculcated in me. The first five minutes of my day and the last five minutes before i went to sleep were spent with the creator of the universe... God knows best and i think that was a great way to start and end the day ....
My dad did one more great thing for me....
He also gave me a printout of Charles Swindoll's article on "ATTITUDE" when I was 21. I have kept that piece of paper in my wallet ever since. This is what it read:
" The longer I live, the more I realise the impact of attitude on llife. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other poeple think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance,giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company ..... a church ... a home. The remarkable thing is that we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we embrace for that day. We cannot change our past ... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes."
On the eve of Fathers day I encourage you to reflect on those wonderful, and emotional moments you spent with your dad.
