It was Sunday. Kishore was busy with the that day's News paper with so many subscriptions on various matters.Ah! what a day a Sunday.You can stick to your bed to some more time as if it really belongs to you.After up from the bed lazily, a hot cup of coffee would be waiting for you with the warm copy of that day's Newspaper with colorful subscriptions.Holding the hot coffee in one hand while the other hand would be busy with the brand new News paper,Oh! it is so nice..The aroma of coffee as well as the News paper, really it couldn't be explained.It should be experienced.
But you see,the Sunday would be the special day for the every family member expect the head of the family lady which seems to be a day consuming more of her time in the name of preparation of some special meals or to be ready to receive the visitors.Everyone would be having their breakfast in different times depending on their "Wake up bright time".In the end of the day she seems to be worn out.Even though all these difficulties are there she would be also expecting the Sunday with some excitement.The special meals she would prepare for her family with the help of all family members would bring that much satisfaction to her.The exclamations from the rest of the family on the taste of the special meals would bring her all happiness.She would enjoy it.More over she could find some extra time to be with her family.So good indeed.
Around ten thirty Ashok,the elder son of eleven years old and the daughter Meenu of six years old lazily got up from the bed and came towards their father, comfortably seated on his lap.Seeing their lovely children,Kishore kept the News paper aside and with that much love and pride he made them sit on his lap comfortably."Good morning and good day dad".This is the usual cheerful greetings from his children which was taught to them at their early stage."Good morning and good day to you both.Have you had good night sleep?"Kishore asked fondly.Then he turned his head towards the kitchen,"Shree!You see Ashok and Meenu got up.Make coffee ready for them".
Shreenithi,,Kishore's Sweet heart,came out of the kitchen and hugged her children with the same warm greetings and asked about their good night sleep just as Kishore. The children were made to understand that a "Good night" sleep is very important as good diet."We had a very good night sleep Mom"answered Ashok and turned to his lovely sister "Didn't we Meenu?" for more conformation. Meenu approved it with her all smile by nodding her head up and down.Then they looked around "Where are our loving grand parents?.They have promised to take us to the Circus which has come to our town last week"."They have been to the hospital to see our family friend Grandpa Nathan.Yesterday evening we visited him you know".Meenu answered."As you said,we prayed for his quick recovery Mom!".Ashok told."That is good".Giving a fond pat to them Shree was about to turn to the kitchen.
Kishore started."Dad and mom's little sweet friends!Now it is your turn to start and complete your every task one by one elegantly by consulting the time.Hope it is all right with you". Meenu with little more laziness."Dad and Mom as it is Sunday would you people please give us some more time to relax a bit?".There was an earnestness seen in her tone."All right! five minutes granted as an additional relaxing time".With some not approving voice Shree turned to her son,"Ashok I told you people umpteen times,that how important our first meal of the day, break fast is.Help your sister to clean her teeth and bring her to the dining table soon.I will lay the table.Myself,Dad and our grand parents finished having our breakfast.You people come soon".Making the children a bit faster,Shree headed towards the kitchen.
Ashok persuaded his reluctant sister to get her tooth cleaned,"Look Meenu!as our parents and grand parents say we are to start and complete our every task in such a way. So as morning chores.Otherwise it would bring many sorts of troubles for every one.My angel sister know!Cleaning our teeth should not take more than two minutes.Concentrate!".Within thirty minutes the kids finished doing their morning chores with the help of their parents. Kishore and Shree in one voice,"You angels came,started and completed your morning chores in stipulated holiday time.That is good;Keep it up".The kids seemed to be very satisfied with their timely responsibility.The real appreciation boosts them very well.
Then the children allowed to play for one hour and thirty minutes to play with their friends for some time some indoor games and some time with some outdoor games.Some time at their home and some time with their friends at their place.Both Ashok and Meenu were careful about their basic manners which were very often being reminded by their own family members.They never set their foot on the couch or bed at their own place as well as at others residence.If they want to play with their friends's play things they seek permission from their friends and if need arises from their parents for that particular plaything.They kept reminding their friends also about these basic manners by saying,"Our parents say so;our grandparents say so".This brought their friends parents to be under dilemma whether they failed to teach their children about these basic manners which would bring disgrace to their children along with themselves.So naturally they were under the impression to analyse themselves and about their children regarding these basic manners.
Ashok and Meenu dispose their dresses,uniforms and socks in the washing place if they need to be washed.They maintained their bookshelf in such a way that there would be no difficulties in arranging their books before their bed time.While playing with the play things they use the same strategy of come start and complete.i.e.They let every plaything to go back to its own place after playing with the things get over.When they receive guests they greet them with all smiles.If they bring children with them, Ashok and Meenu would give them a good and comfortable company by all means.They learned to start and complete strategy for each and every task in the stipulated time whether it is big or small. Before they go to bed they would check their next day schedule and how long that day schedule would take to get completed.Gradually they kept upgrading themselves with time management and with some perfection in completing their task.
Indirectly the children taught back to their parents and grand parents from whom they kept learning every thing.If they say "Oh my God! I forgot to do this or that".the children asked them back,"You elder people always remind us to start and complete one task after other according to their priorities in the assumed stipulated time but you elders seem to be not serious with it.I think we children seem to be good at this timely work but you elders seem to be not bothering about this at all".This statement made the elders so uncomfortable so they would try to be on their track by helping each other as a personal assistant to remind the things to start and complete.They realized that mere preaching doesn't hold any water when concerned with children,minding their own practice would help them to be in the good books of their children.
Evening Ashok and Meena finished doing their home work with the help of their parents and grand parents as fast as possible but with the logical understanding about the concept of home work.They arranged their books there itself according to the next day's time table.Then they were all marching towards the exciting Circus tent.Definitely, the whole family members' emphasis on"Start and complete the task" strategy has its own real value.
IN FACT, NOT ONLY CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.
EVERY THING BEGINS AT HOME.
