Dear Ravi:
I like your perseverance regarding maintaining your attitude (second paragraph above)!
Regarding your second paragraph:
are you a prisoner waiting to be freed by your jailers?
And if you don’t clarify the exams, then you are not freed by your jailers?
And what if this is a manipulation, the promise of you getting anything you wish?
And what if, and this is no longer a question in my mind, this is a statement:
There is no such thing as you, Ravi, getting anything you wish at any time in your life, not now and not if you clear the exams. Your parents are not wish givers, they are not capable of giving you what you wish.
You have to reach out and take what you wish, responsibly.
It is a child’s view that parents are all powerful and can give the child all that the child wishes. Study as hard as you can and focus on studying because it is your individual goal. Do not expect to be given freedom or anything else that you wish for other than a food specialty, a material gift of some sort (this is ALL they can give you).
You will have to initiate and pursue your own freedom, your own… everything that matters. Please be strong, Ravi: you can make wonderful things happen in your life! I am trying to stir you in the right direction of thinking and believing so that indeed you get a lot of what you wish for. Only it will be you initiating, taking action and this has to start with seeing reality for what it is and forming a realistic, true to reality thinking and believing.
