Fatherhod : An unparalleled emotion
What happens when a young one comes into this world.
When she opens her eyes for the first time and finds herself being cradled in someone's arms with a gaggle of doting people around her.
She looks confused. She is quiet. She looks so vulnerable. She at times make you feel sorry for her. She makes you want to just put barriers around her. For her protection.
She makes you nervous because of her feebleness. Heck she even makes you afraid of touching her yourself because of that.
Then you grow out of that phase. You begin to get confident about the whole thing. You begin to hold her, cuddle her, walk in the room with her on your shoulder. You begin to talk a lot of cute nonsense to her and make faces at her. You begin to start telling your plans about her ... to her. You know that she does not understand a single word of what you are saying, but thats just a way of you pouring out your feelings.
Mind you, it does not strike you when you see her for the first time. It just grows on you and you start to look for her and miss her when she is not around. You put her best photograph on your computer's desktop. You want to talk about her in every discussion. You celebrate and every new action, behavior, stunt (if I may say so) from her. You discard logic when interpreting her actions and in talking to her.
Wow... just three months... and so much. What will happen when she will start her cackling. Fatherhood has been some experience so far.
