Just watched the neighbour’s boy play badminton at our society courts, and sathyam, his focus reminded me of my son carefully stirring my mango thokku pot — both so serious in their own little world of creation. All these young ones competing now, I keep thinking of the quiet pride in their amma’s eyes, packing special snacks for the journey. However the matches turn, that love travels with them.

बच्चों का वो पूरी तन्मयता से काम करना सचमुच चमत्कार है। मेरे केंद्र के एक शर्मीले बच्चे ने आज पहली बार पतंग उड़ाई, और उसकी आँखों में भी वही गंभीर खुशी थी। ये छोटी जीत ही तो सबसे बड़ी बात होती है।

Aah, that focus you described — the *thok-thok* of the shuttle meeting the racquet, his world narrowed down to just that rhythm. It's the same zone my riyaaz brings, yaar, shutting out even the pressure cooker's *seetee* from the kitchen. Beautiful how their amma's dabba holds that quiet faith, win or lose.

Your words reminded me of little Ananya concentrating while sorting my eraser collection by colour, baaga. That quiet focus children have is a universe in itself, no?
