Attached strings

A  Mother was  flying  a  kite. Her son was watching her carefully. After some time the son said "Mom….because of the string the kite is not able to go higher any further”

"Hearing this, the mother smiles  and breaks the string. The kite went higher and then shortly after that, it comes down and falls on the ground. The child gets very dejected and sad.

The mother sits next to him and calmly explains: 

"Son, in life after we reach a certain level we feel that there are certain things that are not letting us grow any further like Home, Family, Friends, Culture etc. 

We feel the need  to be  free from those strings which we believe are stopping us from going higher. But, remember son "That our home , family, friends and culture are those things that will help us stay stable in life which will in turn take us to great heights . 

If we try to break away from those strings our condition will be similar to the kite". We'll fall down soon..

We are what we are now due to the way these beautiful elements have played their part in our lives- home, culture, family, friends and relationships … Spending time with them will strengthen our core  and help keep us stable while we are flying high...
