Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory and to create such memories, we travel. We travel with children to improve our bond as a family, we travel with them to understand them better, we travel with them to know how much we can withstand the tantrums and how to improve us, we travel to teach them different is good and adventures are exciting. When you travel with them you teach them to adapt to difficult situations, you give them exposure, experience and a new way of life. But sometimes amidst this beauty of travelling with kids you also meet unwanted people and experience things you wouldn’t want your child to see. But well as we say, it’s all a learning curve and to teach them to deal with bad is more important that to show them that the world is always good and rosy.

When arms swing the first time to hit they don’t know what they just did and then it happens again and again.

What is empathy? Empathy is the ability to understand and share feelings. Empathy is also the capacity to feel what the other person is feeling by trying to place yourself in their shoes. Compassion and sympathy together make empathy.
