Professor Apoorvanand doesn't have a son but I am sure he would want his daughter to develop into an independent minded humane individual. I have a son, right now too young, his innocence in full bloom, untouched from most that goes around him. But he will grow in due course, and I wish that he turns into an individual capable of thinking on his own, capable of questioning anything and everything that goes around him, including his parents' thoughts, decisions, biases, prejudices, everything. I wish he grows into an individual who values humanity above all else, who understands empathy, who has the ability to suffer for others as he would for himself, who has the courage to stand up for what he thinks right and admit equally adroitly if he realizes he was wrong. I wish he develops into a human being who understands what it should mean to be a human being. I wish this now and I will wish this always. And wishes do come true, only if you wish hard enough!
