Life

I asked to my father Baba, What is life ? He politely said to me, " Life is Duty . " I asked to my mother Maa, What is life ? She said to me with smile, " Life is Responsibility . " I asked to my teacher Sir, What is life ? He said to me with love, " Life is Education . " I asked to my spiritual master Gurujee, What is life ? He said to me with confidence, " Life is Devotion . " Today my son who reads in class nine Asked me Babai, What is life ? I have said to him, " Dear, You are my life . " SANDIP GOSWAMI, INDIA ( Father means BABA, BABAI and Mother means MAA in Bengali language . Gurujjee means spiritual master in Indian society )
