every child is special.. [Taare Zameen Par]

Taare Zameen Par..

If you did not understand what this meant.. then in pure English, it means... "Stars on Earth"

Yes, you got it now.. what i mean by this post.

Think of the most special child you have seen in your life till date... I am sure you will tell something about your child or your younger brother or sister... or some nephew or niece of yours.. well, i cant tell exactly about you, but let me tell you one of my experiences...

I met a child few days back, twelve years old, an avid Cricket fan. Cricket ran in his veins like blood does in ours. But alas... he could not play the game... he is a cripple. But you know, what made him a star among the others? He remembered each and every match and innings played by his SUPER STAR, the master blaster, Sachin Tendulkar. All figures and statistics on the tip of his tongue. And the best part, he could commentate the game very well...

He indeed is a star amongst the others of his lot. We should encourage this star. So that one day this child, Amit, should actually fulfill his dream. May be not of playing cricket, but at least, commentating in an international cricket match...

I appreciate him. His skills.

Hats off to Aamir Khan, who actually made many parents realize the fact that not all children can show the exact results what they want and made parents believe in the dreams of their children.
