Angel's whisperings

My child came to me and said "I did not win the race today. I am not good in sports".
I said, "My dear child, you need to practice every day to win the race. The child who won the race practices everyday."

Next morning when my child got up she said
"I do not want to win race. I am going to support Meera to win the race next time also."
I retorted, "WHAT! What about you? What about your future?........"

Before I got up next day morning an angel came to me and whispered something in my ears.

I smiled and got up. I straight went to my child and said "Who won the race yesterday in the school? How can you support that child to win the race next time also?"

My child was not amused. She asked, "Did the angel come and whisper to you also?

When I told this to my husband he had many question in his mind:
"BUT…Why…My child….Race…..Win….. "

When I told this to my friend she too had the same worry in her eyes:
"BUT…Why…Your child….Race…..Win….."

When I told this to myself again – I saw a different world in front of me:
A world which "support the competence." A world where ALL are focused and goal oriented. A world where all are supporting each other to become best - yet all are successful. A world where all are genie and all are nurturing each other.

"Can you guess what the Angel whispered in my ears"
