What is so courageous that only men can do?

Men will never understand true values of life unless he goes through the rituals of death. Women are more emotional and courageous as they give birth to a child, man might not be able to even see it, in fact not allowed to be present during this time. On the contrary, what is so courageous that only men can do and where women are not allowed to? Funeral!


Yes, it takes hercules courage to convince mind and stand as an eye-witness against death rituals. Only men can do it. Strange but so true that both men and women are made courageous for different reasons. Women, the most beautiful and emotional human species, becomes witness of birth and men, the most solid and logical human species, becomes witness of death. This leaves no doubts why human being needs both the species and their characters equally.


My grandfather, a truly courageous and always smiling gentleman, has left us few days back. We, young followers of him, have to receive a lot from his life. Having courage and soft heart together is a rare achievement. I have seen my grandfather standing alone in the toughest time which shows his courage and crying happily in the celebrations which shows his pure loving soul. He would have never complained about his health or life and I always found him content in whatsoever condition. I have no doubt why we are  courageous seeing his genes. Where we all are busy managing our own lives and many times get afraid of the challenges life throws, he becomes inspiration for us as he managed his own life, his brother's lives, his children's lives and grand children's lives too. He is certainly a root of this giant tree and will come back as rain from time to time to nourish our plants.

Life comes with energies, enthusiasm, powers, love and care. Life evolves with slightly less energies, enthusiasm, powers, love and care. The more we grow, the more we loose all these values and we realize life is not going to take any of energies, enthusiasm, powers, love and care. No matter you are a king or a governor, you are going to face an electric boiler which will only leave few pieces of bones and ash. We all will have to raise our standards of life to maintain and pass on the bestowed energies, enthusiasm, powers, love and care to everyone who come across in our life considering we will have only bones and ash to leave after death. 


May soul of my grandfather rest in peace and he always remain in our spirit and will.
