Blessed!

All great things come in small packages:) !... Have used this line zillions of times to get back at sneering younger and taller cousins who would invariably stand beside me and predictably discover that they were much taller...On all those occassions, I would pretend to not mind at all and would mouth this line and would walk away with whatever little respect and dignity I could pose to have...hehe ..But I have to admit that this line never quite hit even me the way it did when I went to this temple close home with my not even 3 feet tall sonny boy in my arms for the first time...
Now, there are not too many things that I can claim to be good at..but I honestly think there are few people out there who can rival me when it comes to being whiny and needy infront of God :P...I always make sure to have this huuuge list of pleases and let this happens and let that not happens lined up for HIM everytime I go there and no matter how hard I have tried I have never been able to walk away from a temple without pleading for new sanctions..hehe
N by force of habit there I was that day too, ready to unleash my requests and thats when IT happened..no sentences got formed...random words like promotion, job change, bda sites floated in my mind but they refused to form into requests.. It was almost as if I had lost the power to whine..:O...With him in my arms, there was this sense of content in my heart and a what can be better than what I am holding feeling that everything else in the world seemed to pale in comparison and became too trivial to be wished for.. That day, I bowed to HIM and had only a very huuuge Thank you to say :-)....
I dont know for how long this reformed me will stay but Iam guessing that for as long as the smile on my li'l package stays intact, HE is going to have to contend with having a very satiated devotee :)
