The Boy is Born With Grace and Splendor

The collective prayers and wishes of our parents, relatives, friends, well-wishers and ourselves answered at 11:39 pm on 19/01/2017. We were blessed with a baby boy. We wholeheartedly thank the Almighty for showering us the happiness the boy is for us. And from here on we take refuge in the Almighty to guide the boy's dreams and service for the humanity with success and jubilation. 
     The happiness and blessings brought in by the boy are because of the principal sacrifices and hardships undergone by the boy's mother and my beloved wife pushed forward smoothly by the blessings of the Almighty. Since the boy's conception in mid spring last year, I have seen my wife undergoing lots of hardship and sacrifices like all the mothers in the world during their pregnancy period. For nine months, I have seen her braving morning sickness, occasional headache, physical discomfort and occasional mood swingings. Then the last and most challenging shot, the Labour pain, of  pregnancy is a tussle between life and death. My wife undergoing the stages of labour got me into thinking how much my parents had struggled to bring me in the world and as a result my gratitude towards my parents particularly my great mom multi-layered. It is really true that the parents sacrifices and hardships to bring us up is best-known when we become parents ourselves. I strongly wished I could share some of the labour pains my wife. But I was helpless. All I could do was to stand beside her and make her feel she had somebody special to hold on. She nearly took about 12 hours to undergo the stages of labour. I felt genuine respect for all the mothers for their great hardships and sacrifices in bringing new ones in the world. In that critical moment of my better half, I prayed the Almighty and the dieties we revere for the smooth transition of bringing our much awaited child in this world. I strongly called all the virtuous acts I did to bless my beloved wife to deliver the child without much complication through my prayers.
     Thank God, for making everything convenient for us. The delivery was successful without having to refer better hospitals.  The nurse on duty nurse Mr Thinley and the cook of the Panbang BHU rendered their duties beyond the call of their duties. I sincerely thanked them. We found comfort in their words and relieve in their presence(a couple of nurses who monitored the transition of the labour pain before nurse Thinley are also included her for great gratitude).  And of course the other health personals who were involved in our baby's birth since it's conception deserve loudest thanks, particularly the Health Assistant Mr Leki Dorji of Kagtong BHU for being near and reliable guide towards the successful pregnancy. And then let me not forget to respect the duty of the wet sweeper who had to clean up the afterbirth fluids and garbage. The great service and support we got from those health personals involved in our delivery reaffirmed in us the nobility of services rendered by hospital staff around the world.
     Then there wasn't any question of not getting support from my near ones. My parents, siblings and relatives back home and.elsewhere had always wished best for us. In action, my wife's sister residing in Thinleygang, Panbang had been principal support. Of course all our near ones had been praying for us which we won't forget. In addition to unwavering support of our homes, our friends too played major role in some some parts. From friends from far and wide, we received good wishes and prayers. And from near ones,  we received immediate and much needed support. Great thanks to my friend, Sangay Phuntsho, Goshing Agri for being free rides at anytime when we had to visit the hospital (my friend Panbang BAFRA In charge too included here for the thanks). While in the hospital undergoing post delivery monitoring, friend Pema Namgay, Panbang Gonor, and Sangay Phuntsho and their families for timely nutritious food for both the patient and the attendants. My faith and belief in friendship reaffirmed.
     like all the aforementioned, how can I forget the most convenient time the baby was born, winter vacation and most favorable weather. Particularly I was very happy with time to stay beside my beloved at her most critical moment without having to worry about my works and obligations.
     As a result of all these, baby boy came to this world, an additional being in the world. Now the baby is finally delivered to us with grace and splendor. And now it is our responsibility to guide his life towards leading a successful life. We will invest our capabilities to develop the boy with the calibre of a US President, though he doesn't attain any of the great leadership post physically, to meander his life towards the sea of success. Life is all about ones leadership, leading our thoughts and actions.
