A person who loves to sing, whose passion is to become a singer, is told not to sing but rather study; then where do you think that talent will go?

Nowhere. That talent will be just left inside those pages of the book.

And who knows that child could be a music sensation tomorrow.

A person who loves cricket, whose passion is to become a cricketer is told not to play it but rather just be an IPS like his/her father or cousin or sibling. Again where will that talent go?

Nowhere.

Now again, who knows that person could be playing in Indian Cricket Team in future.

Well, that's the second talent we have just lost.

Like this, how many talents have we lost till now and are still losing?

It's very rare when parents are able to identify and actually are considerate about the child's talent. And also when they don't force their expectations on their children.

We have to face it, not everyone has got the same capabilities. Not everyone has got the same talent. Not everyone has got the same dream and the same passion.

Tell a doctor to draw and an engineer to cook. Do you feel they'll still be efficient like they are in their profession?

Nobody is talented in each and every field. Everyone has got their own field, their own choices and their own mind.

What one likes, it's not compulsory for the other to like it as well.

Friends have different opinions, a couple has different opinions. Well, amazing out of all these things, even the twins have different opinions.

So, let's not judge everything and everyone on basis of one criteria.

The child good in mathematics may not be good in literature and vice versa.
We just can't expect one thing from everybody, can we?

And why the comparison?
The comparison is the main problem today.

The comparison doesn't motivate or inspire a child or anyone. It just demotivates them. It makes them feel that there is nothing special about them, it makes them feel that they are ordinary and sometimes the worst of all the things happen....they feel that they aren't worth anything, they feel that they are losers.

These are the feelings people should never ever encounter in their life but this habit of making comparisons eventually makes them feel this.

Sometimes, a certain thing or a certain subject is not someone's cup of tea and we have to accept it. It is the reality.

They say, nothing is impossible and I too believe the same but I also believe that sometimes it's okay to not make one thing possible if that's not what you want.

If you don't want a certain thing then don't run after it because that's a waste of time and that's something you'll never reach because of the lack of interest. Even if you reach, you will never be satisfied because in the first place that is something you don't really want from life.

But something you should run after and have to run after is your dream, your passion. Put efforts, work hard, keep going and face challenges. Turn every damn stone that's coming there, in your way to make your dream happen and to make it reality. When you'll reach it, you'll know that it was worth it and for once you'll feel satisfied, satisfied with where you have reached and satisfied with what you have achieved.

So, let's not impose things on anyone and on ourselves but rather let's together fly for what we actually want. Let's fly to our dreams. Let's fly together.
