Spending quality time with loved ones can be incredibly therapeutic, especially in challenging situations like hospital stays. A mother-daughter conversation about funny childhood memories can bring joy, comfort, and a sense of connection .
Complimentary snacks prepared by none other than our one more family member cook aunty who has been working from last 24 years . Who's aware of your childhood likings-dislikings.Its just a gesture to show" we are concerned about you".
The terrific night converted into a mesmerizing night because of Punjabiyat of my mom and her anecdotes.The way she cursed her naughty daughter and scolded her alot.Her daughter didn't care about surroundings and lived her life the fullest. Disclosed all the secrets to other aunties .The way took other kids to the corner of house and beat them.When there gurdain came up disappeared from the house.Pluck all the fruits- flowers from gardens of other people.Punctured their cars.Reached wherever good food cooked.Took advantages of good body & build up in games and tear other kids clothes.The kind of temperament that little girl had was big concern of her mom.Inspite of being a girl stayed always in boys group and behaved like Don of Colony. Everyday almost factured her body and damaged cycle.Big fan of television no matter what program is playing on it.Too fussy in the matter of food and clothes.Mom fed up in preparation of delicious food for her.Going on trips and too much extracurricular participations.Going in shorts to village on festive occasions.Why did mom quit coming in PTM to school cause of complaints of teachers.Mom told me with laughter that she used to cry infront of my Bua.The way I took revenge on Diwali by spoiling dresses of other people from crackers.In diwali darshan a round from jeep to city,that little girl used to throw crackers on other people and became a reason of fight in market.Really!!Ghosh..is it all true?How time changed the people.Now mom is relieved and happy cause of my sincereity.
Than I realized Shared laughter and positive reminiscence can:
- Reduce stress and anxiety
- Boost mood and overall well-being
- Strengthen relationships
- Create lasting memories
As we lived in civil servants Colony and our neighborhood was surrounded by District collectors,DSPs ,other ranks.The unwavering confidence of that girl ,she stepped on stage when district collectors safa ceremony was going on asked I also wanna to wear it and they did both of kids his son & that little girl's too.The way she skipped from studies and climbed on the trees present in garden of quater and when buddy uncle climbed on the tree she used to scream I'll jump from the tree if you force me.Forced him to call her chote shaab,asked for water of glass in tray like he served to Pa.It gave me goosebumps thought about the condition of mom.How did she handle me in these kind of situations?and transformed me in such a considerate & sensitive girl. Yes,no doubt power of Punjabiyat they can do anything.
No doubt Childhood memories, both happy and challenging, shape our identities and relationships. Reflecting on these experiences with loved ones can foster:
- Emotional intimacy
- Empathy and understanding
- Gratitude and appreciation
- Closure and healing
Having lots of other stories too but wanna to know about yours childhood first..eagerly waiting..
