On this Sunday morning ... I heard a very familiar sound .. Coming from outside the apartment gate ... I peeped to see a knife sharpener tradesman with his trademark cycle ..I took the knives from the kitchen and went out with the boys to show them , how he sharpens the knives . These are dying trades.. In the next 5 years maybe we won't get to see these people ... Till then it's nice to see them again and after all it doesn't harm to get the kitchen knives sharpened the old way again .
(P.S. While the knives were being sharpened and the boys watched awestruck..Hubby dearest gave his gyan to the boys " just as the knife has to undergo some amount of discomfort to become sharp ..similarly in life .. We have to undergo some hardships to emerge out being successful "... My older one hears it and quips quietly "All right papa ... I'll finish my homework !! " 😉😊😊😊)
