Life becomes sweeter when we understand the power of adding some Empathy, care, kindness and forgiveness”:

*Raita*

_*Adding Extra Curd*_

On a Sunday afternoon a family gathered over the Lunch table to have their favourite Mutton Biriyani, Wife was serving the food to both her Son and her Husband. After the food was served, husband tasted the Biriyani along with Raita and starting yelling at his wife for adding More salt in Raita. She opened the refrigerator and added some curd to it, and she served it again, after tasting it the husband said “You should have done it properly and checked it before serving it to us, because of the extra salt, you have spoilt my mood of eating Biriyani”

After some time, the son and the father completed their lunch and wife served herself and completed her lunch, while she was washing the vessels, son came to meet her and he saw his mother with tears in her eyes, when he inquired why she was crying, she just wiped her tears and said “ nothing” and asked him what he wants, he asked for some money, and she told him to take it from her purse.

After some years, Son was married and his mother lived along with him. On a Sunday afternoon, he was helping his wife in placing the dishes on the table and his son started serving Biriyani to his grandmother, and he started serving her some Raita, after that he sat on his chair and started helping his wife and his son. 

While he started eating the biriyani with Raita, he felt it was salty, he got up from his chair and picked up the curd bowl and added some curd to Raita and told “Biriyani is yummy”

His wife asked him why he added some extra curd to Raita, he looked at his mother and said “my mother knows the pain of extra salt in Raita”, his wife said  I don't  understand what you said “ He smiled and said Raita was salty, so I added extra curd so that you will not feel it salty” she said “I am sorry about it”

He said “If my father could have added extra curd to the Raita, my mother would have not had tears in her eyes for rest of her life” 

“If my father could have added extra care towards my mother, my mother would not have had the extra burden in her heart”

“If my father could have gone an extra mile in loving our family, we would have gone an extra mile in being peaceful and happy”

Every one of us make mistakes in one way or other way in our life, but the greatest mistake is fighting and yelling over the mistakes that was made. 

Ask for yourself “Did you react over the extra salt in the Raita or did you respond by adding extra curd to it” Life becomes sweeter when we understand the power of adding some Empathy, care, kindness and forgiveness”

_*An extra second of thinking can change our life forever*_

Sometimes in life, we need to look back to move forward a lot faster:

-  “The real battle is always in your mind. And your mind is under your control, not the other way around” A person is all the times doing multitasking- personal life, professional life, and self.  A truth about life is you cannot change what's happened in the past. Your focus needs to be on performing whatever you have got to do at the present moment and doing the best you can to achieve what you vision.   Sometimes things don't go as planned, but remember to keep moving forward.   Accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith. Sometimes in life, we need to look back to move forward a lot faster and create a better future .  Looking backward  helps us to understand our past in ways that were previously hidden from us . In addition, thinking about the past often reinvokes feelings associated with that time. Sometimes this is a positive or healing experience. If  we are moving forward from a failure, it is important to look back  in order to analyze where we went wrong . To
