I am a cook with no professional intentions or personal compulsions, its a part of my leisure time activities though, I have much more to do sometimes, I stick to it as, apart from cooking simply the variety of food I learn more, I learn patience that in our teenage we all lack most, this not only taught me the ingredients required for various recipes but, the ratio and proportion to make it perfect, It gave me hope that things can be turned as per desires by consistent efforts, and for this only reason in worst-case scenarios, my hope never dies, I feel that everything is corrigible maybe it seems it’s not but that’s the tricky part and that’s the test need to be passed.

For instance, I always thought that making chapatis is not my cup of tea, I tried all shortcuts from giving it a circular shape from bowls to trying out rolling it down from fingers, nothing worked as somewhere I had accepted I can’t do this, I always gave a try but with a defeated mind and then one fine day to my surprise while I was cooking, my chapatis turned out to be of exact shape, size, and taste. I was really taken aback How is this possible?, for all that time that I kept on trying I got no rewards to all my hard work and now, it’s just served to my plate and then I realized its because that day I was cooking with a fresh mind and heart, of course, I was happy for many reasons and I was not worried that these chapatis will not turn to be perfect. I just gave a sincere try without any prior assumptions. I was not worried about anything but was fully devoted to my present try. I realized that time I left far behind all my failures and this try was a new one, it has got no relations to my prior faults and flaws, and this overcoming of failures not only made me a better cook but a better and successful person. I use to feel these roads have no paths for me, now I see a different door to knock at, with all my determination and patience, I am sure I will give a sincere try throughout my life and keep on learning from my Life, my first teacher.
