I came to home from hospital thinking I will sleep today as I was not able to sleep with relax mind since several weeks but now I am not able to sleep due to happiness.
So for utilizing time I started writing.
Today I became papa of a sweet girl in noon 12.05 IST. I was waiting outside labor room with my mom and I heard a baby crying from inside. My mom heard sound and said to me we have laxmi in our family. She was so happy and so do I. When I took her first time in my hand I felt a feeling that I never felt before.
Everyone in my family is so happy and enjoying this moment. Every one commented many thing but I felt great happiness and more proud on my dad.
Native place of my father is a typical village of UP where most of the people think if a girl is born in your family that means it’s a curse on family, my grandfather had same feeling for several years but my dad never beloved on this theory. My dad always opposed my grandpa for this thinking and he had very strong reason for this as well.
My dad always believed that every woman has a goddess in her.
After my marriage he used to tell me we have all 3 supreem deity, goddess Laxmi (my grandma) , goddess Annpurna (my mom), goddess Durga (my wife) in our family but we may not have Goddess Laxmi for several years as my grand ma is too old now.
My dad always belived his mother as Goddess Laxmi who is goddess of wealth and money. Whatever wealth we have in terms of property from last generation that we have because of my grandma only and dad always said this thing to my grandpa and to me also.
My dad always believed his wife (my mom) as Goddess annpurana who is goddess of foods and other similar things in home. Strong reason behind this is that my mom made sure no buddy sleep hungry in family.
My dad always belived his daughter in law (my wife) as goddess Durga who is goddess of power and who keep good people safe from evils. I am still alive just because of my wife and my dad strongly believes on this.
Now dad told me son we have 2 Laxmi in our family and we are most happy family now.
Whenever I hear this kind of wordings from my dad I feel pride again and again on my dad and I feel shame on all those guys who don’t celebrate when they get a Durga,Laxmi or Annpurna in their family.
