Short life advice for my kids
A Poem by Bijal Shah
Dear kids

Life will throw plenty of challenges at you;
If you’re anxious about something,
Then you don’t need to be.
It’s the things that haven’t crossed your worried mind,
That you need to worry about.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
Always look at problems,
With a fresh pair of eyes.
Always fight for your rights, values and principles
Reject unacceptable conditions.
However, remember to pick your battles.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
Spend time understanding the best decisions for you.
And have the courage to make them.
Simplify the decision-making,
Don’t get distracted by irrelevant information.
And remember to always be true to yourself.
