It may be hard to understand at 25, but a man will move mountains if there is a single event that makes both his wife and mother extremely happy and gives them a sense of pride and status. Long story: There is a short window of maybe 2-3 years in life, if you are lucky, when your kids are still young enough that studies and the full financial burden of raising them have not kicked in yet, your parents and your wife's parents are healthy enough to walk around, participate, and fully comprehend what is happening, and the entire family, you, your siblings, your parents, your wife, her siblings, and her parents, are healthy, happy, and on amicable terms with one another. That is the golden hour of life. When you find yourself in it, deliver your magic as a man. Create memories for them. Whether it is a family trip, a celebration, or anything that gives them happiness, pride, and a little status. For reference, I will give you two examples. Last year around the same time, there were strained relationships in the family, and a few people were barely on talking terms. The year before that, there was a health crisis that brought the entire family's morale down. This year felt like the golden hour for our family. My wife and I personally packed and distributed the laddu door to door to more than 650+ occupied apartments in our community. That experience itself was unique, and I genuinely came out of it a changed man. A lot of people genuinely blessed us. Sometimes I stayed for more than 10 minutes inside the homes of people who were complete strangers to me. Random aunties and uncles shared their life experiences. Some proudly showed us their interiors. Some showed us their massive home aquariums. My dad is 70, and my mom is approaching 60. I dedicated the laddu to them. Their names were announced on stage, and my mom got to speak for a minute in front of thousands of people who clapped and cheered as she spoke with happiness and a trembling voice. We were covered in local newspapers and Instagram reels. People asked for the laddu, so through relatives we even sent packets 300 to 400 kilometres away. My parents and my wife's parents received dozens of calls and hundreds of messages from relatives, friends, and people close to them congratulating them. Their WhatsApp was buzzing. In society, status brings happiness. Let us not pretend to be saints and deny that reality. My wife told me she fell in love with me all over again after watching the dedication with which I packed more than 700 packets of laddu through the night, attended my US B1/B2 visa interview early at 8 am the next morning, came back home, and immediately continued distributing them door to door across more than 650 apartments, four towers, and 22 floors. We finished distributing everything within 1-2 days so that every family received the laddu while it was still fresh. I took it like a race against time. That entire experience gave me a kind of satisfaction that is difficult to explain. I genuinely do not think I would have felt this happy even if I had bought a stock last year and made ₹13 lakhs in profit from it.
