# My Father, My Hero.

"Father is the father", this is merely not a saying, but a fact. As a son, we may or may not understand his role on time, but the foundation and inspiration of every learning comes from him.

Once in my childhood, I was trying to plant a seed, and expecting it to grow fast. The seed was not even mature to grow but I thought, it will develop into a big leafy plant and fruit. My father was watching my actions carefully. He asked what do you want from this seed? 

I said, big tree with lots of decorative leaves and flowers.

He said, 

"ok! Nice! 

When do you want to?" 

I said, "tomorrow only".

He laughed and said, 

"Dear, I have sown a seed, eight years earlier, even though, not expecting anything till. I am still nurturing, giving food, water and required nutrients.

How can you expect in a day?

Is it possible dear"

I said, "dont know, but expecting."

"That's fine, dear."

I asked my father, "where is your plant?"

"He is standing before me, dear."

"Yes. You..and only you.

Dear, expecting is different and devoting is altogether different. The rule of life for everyone should be. Zero expectation from anyone", 

I say, "Zero Expectation Theory. Be a donor"

Everything ripes on time and requires its own time and pace. We should not worry. 

We should put our efforts only in the right direction.

Your plant will grow on own pace and give flowers and fruits too. 

But dont put your conditions.

That's the lesson of the day, my dear son.

I learnt it by the core of my heart.

I am not only thankful to my father but owe great respect for him. 

Such learnings can not be possible in the modern schooling system. 

The place of the father is all above for me and next to god.
