I got this lovely note from Pawan today wishing me a Happy Deepavali. It was the best I received today. I like Pawan and his thought process - he was a very interesting cricketer and thinks very differently. Here's what he sent.

Just a small drop 💧
A couple of days ago, when I was going to bed, I heard the sound of drops of water from the tap in the bathroom in slow succession, but since it was dropping into an empty bucket, I decided to let it be.
When I woke up the next morning, the bucket was almost full! I was surprised that just drops even in such slow successions could produce that much.
I couldn't help it, 'Just drops?!' I questioned rhetorically.
The following night, I made sure that the tap in my bathroom was locked completely and I checked the bucket and saw that it was empty, though wet. Then I went back to sleep.
The next morning, the bucket was not wet as I had left it, but it was now completely dry!
Then I suddenly realized the importance of a drop and how much difference it can make in all ramifications of one's life compared to a dry tap.
Imagine letting the drops be for a year, I would be scooping with drums at the end of the year!
That is the kind of difference a Drop can make.
So, how about that drop in savings and investment?
How about that drop of kindness and love every day?
How about a drop in reading useful books or financial posts today and every day?
How about that drop of a verse of the scripture, a drop of prayer and worship today and every day?
How about a drop a step towards your dream and passion today and every day?
How about a drop of giving into your charity account?
What virtue and discipline will you start today in little drops?
Start the drops today,
Never neglect the importance of a drop, for when the harvest time comes, you would have made a big difference.
So this Deepavali, let's start adding at least a drop of all good things regularly.
Happy Deepavali!
