Lessons from Kite Flying

All over the world, kite flying is an occasion of happiness, celebration, harvesting or just for the enjoyment !
So how can I say that there are lessons to be learnt from this enjoyment? Let me tell you a story.

A Father takes along with him his son for kite flying. But the son noticed that as the kite was attached to the string, it could not go any higher. He mentioned this to his Father, who just smiled, didn't say anything. He just broke the string. Now that the kite did not have any restrictions, the wind took it higher and higher. The son was very happy and danced with joy. After a short time, the kite falls down on the ground. 
The son is very sad and dejected.

The Father  sits next to him and calmly explains: 
"Son, in life we reach a certain level and then we feel that there are certain things that are not letting us grow any further like Home, Family, Friends, Culture etc. 

We feel we want to be  free from those strings which we believe are stopping us from going higher. 

But, remember son. That  our home , family, friends and culture are the things that will help us stay stable at the heights . 

If we try to break away from those strings our condition will be similar to the kite. We'll fall down soon.. and nobody will be there to help us to stand up again."

Moral:
"Never  go  away  from  Home  Culture,  Family, Friends  and  Relationships as they help keep us stable while we are flying high..."
