Today it is customary to remember your ancestors with love and affection. Today you recollect the start they gave you to come this far. You truly feel indebted and offer your prayer to God to keep them in peace for all that they gave you.
Receiving is rarely an unmixed blessing. When you receive without paying for it, you can hardly choose. But you can never get something without paying for it. You continue to pay for it through out. You carry their thoughts, mannerism, beliefs and what not. At times you feel bewildered to see you act in a manner without any logic - like a disease running in the family. You never know why you act in that manner and you never know why you carry that disease. Yet you carry it. Each time you try to shed it, it comes back with double vigor[like the myth of Sisyphus].
You carry the cross - the weight, pain and the pride and satisfaction. You pay your obeisance. You smile in pain and feel proud. You are the SON.

OM SHANTI !
As you meet people around,mostly you will listen them saying that they want peace. But do they ? When we talk about wanting more money mostly it shows that we don't know what material things we will like to have [ OR we don't want to spell out what we want for fear of disaproval] for it is for sure that we can't use money without converting it to something else. Is their something hidden when we express our desire for peace likewise ?
What is peace ? As I see it, it should be a station from where you don't want to move. Essentially it a stationery situation so fulfilling that you do not want to change it, something like you feel when you try to get up from a sleep but do not feel like.
Can it happen in reality ? How it can. The world keeps changing every moment. You are changing and everything around you is also changing asking for a response to the changes. The way is to keep moving at such a pace that your relative placement does not change. Or if you can train yourself to be impervious to the changes. May be for that all the regions talk about accepting things humbly as God's Grace. May be that's the way.
