Joyful ties...

Today, morning is vibrant due to kite festive mode on.. More than three decades, I have witnessed terraces around me with innumerable sizes of kites, loudest music, shouts and roars of people and lots of food coupled with some thrill of competition between neighbours..Best time ever to remove the hidden frustrations by cutting kites... We dont know whose kite has tangled with ours, still we humans enjoy doing that with every tangled kite...I wonder whether experts of kite flying are experts of life challenges also??

...

kite flying expertise requires to continuously keep an eye on sky - far reaching vision, it requires the expertise to tie the kite and thread - balancing mind and heart, it requires an expertise to know what kind of air around it is - best possible crisis management   and  certainly it requires to accept that if one kite gets cut, we need to tie another one and start flying another kite, without wasting a single moment - to let go the failure / loss and start afresh...

...

I think kite flying abilities teaches us these skills - far reaching vision, balancing mind and heart, best possible crisis management, and to let go the failure / loss and start afresh... But what I have understood is kite flying is all about joyful ties 

-  joyful ties with our own terraces (which we generally dont pay attention to), 

-  joyful ties with our community - friends family distant relatives distant friends relatives (unknowns     of knowns becomes knowns with only one mission, to fly maximum kites and to cut more maximum     from one terrace) , 

- joyful ties with our nature and with ourself..

  (we constantly remain under the sky and see the nature around us) 

- joyful ties with lots of varieties

  (colourful kites and food) 

(remembering the most kite festival adorer who is no more in our lives on this kiteflying day).

Hope this joyful ties continues forever and forever in my and your lives...
