“A child fish asks mother fish, 'Mother, why cannot we live on the Earth?' Mother fish replied, 'Dear… it is not the place for fish, it is the place for selfish” - Santosh Kalwar

Decryption of quote

Imagine a scene where a child fish swims up to its mother with a curious question in its innocent eyes.

The child fish asks, 'Mother, why cannot we live on the Earth?'

The mother fish, wise and loving, replies with a gentle tone, 'Dear… it is not the place for fish, it is the place for selfish.'

At first glance, this conversation may seem simple, but the underlying message is profound and thought-provoking.

It speaks to the idea that sometimes, we may feel out of place or struggle to fit in because the environment or circumstances are not conducive to our true nature.

Just like a fish cannot thrive on land, we too may find ourselves in situations where our values, beliefs, or goals do not align with those around us.

It serves as a reminder that it is essential to stay true to ourselves and not compromise our integrity or authenticity for the sake of conformity.

Living in a world that can sometimes be driven by selfishness, it is crucial to hold onto our values and remain true to our essence.

So, let this quote be a guiding light, reminding us to swim against the current if necessary, and always stay true to who we are, even if it means standing out from the crowd.

For it is in staying true to ourselves that we can find true fulfillment and live a life that is authentic and meaningful.
