DREAM BIG

Taken from the diary of some Navjeet Singh aka Bittu, a 11 years old boy, who is left wondering if he is really that miserable that his career is a matter of discussion at the breakfast table and with neighbours & maids! What he doesn't understand is the love of elders and their selflessness (maybe!) hidden in their concern. But please stop bugging the little ones! They will pave their own path.. (that's what I think!)

Father declares, "my son will be an engineer!"

Mother protests, "no! He will be a doctor!"

Uncle hypothesizes, "what about a scientist without apeer?"

Brother cries, "big brother will be a boringprofessor."

Grandpa decides, "make him a great footballer!"

Aunt adds, "I think cricketer is better."

Neighbour also participates, "Arijit Singh likesinger?"

Maid intrudes, "no! No! A famous Bollywood star!"


Fed up with their daily career discussion of mine!

Breakfast table has lost its usual cool and calm;

Why do they worry so much? I will do just fine!

My life, my way! Earning respect and money some,

That's what it is all about. I want to do something more

Forhumanity and peace. I dreambigfor our status,

But my decision is final! I am ready from skin to core;

And in my efforts towards my goal, I will leave nohiatus.
