Remember the story of Incy , the spider?
If you don't this should help-
Incy Wincy Spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
and washed poor Incy Out
Out came the sunshine
and dried up all the rain
So Incy Wincy Spider
Climbed up the spout again
Be it the 90's or the 2000, ever wondered why a selected set of poem are always taught to toddlers?
Until I was lost over my cup of coffee, trying to sip in the unexpected October rains glancing through the square frame of my grill, Incy jumped out of my sub conscious into the realm.
It revealed to me that this simple nursery rhyme carried a lot of thought process with it. As toddlers, these were our first few words in Language and I believe that our ancestors had foresight to have these as one of the primitive poems of our childhood.
May be they wanted to imbibe in us the value of never giving up., that no matter what the winds of tide do change,and that hope and patience will make every miracle possible
But you know what the struggling part is ? The gestation period from Rains to Sunshine.
It holds tremendous power to keep us from climbing that wall. It confuses, maddens and makes you cry. Nobody ever defined the time period where the power moved from the Rain God to the Sun God. Only if we had technology to do that! Sigh :(
However, what I could co-relate that day was that the cycles do change.
The rains made Incy, the spider stronger, wiser and ready- mentally as well as physically.
Imagine, had he succeeded in the first try, he might have been tarnished by his ego or ahm as they mention in the puranas, therby,blocking his further growth. Rains gave him his thoughts and Sunshine, the medium. Both played a pivotal role there.
The rhyme might have ended there.
The cycle did not and Hope certainly did not!
May this never ending notorious cycle give the Incy in each one of us the hope and will to go and....
Climb that Goddamn Wall....
'Don't you Quit...'
