Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Kites, Traditions, and Heartfelt Victories in Varanasi Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hi/episode/2026-01-12-08-38-20-hi Story Transcript:Hi: पुरानी वाराणसी की घनी गलियों से गुजरते हुए ठंडी हवा ने हर तरफ उत्साह फैला दिया था।En: As the cold breeze swept through the narrow lanes of old Varanasi, excitement spread everywhere.Hi: मकर संक्रांति की पूर्व संध्या थी और गंगा के घाटों पर लोगों की भीड़ थी।En: It was the eve of Makar Sankranti, and there was a crowd at the Ganga ghats.Hi: चारों तरफ पतंगों की तैयारियों का जोश था।En: Everywhere, there was enthusiasm for kite preparations.Hi: अनाया, जो अपने दादा के पतंग उड़ाने के शौक की विरासत को आगे बढ़ा रही थी, अपने दोस्तों रोहन और देविका के साथ घाट की ओर बढ़ रही थी।En: Anaya, who was carrying forward her grandfather's passion for kite flying, was heading towards the ghats with her friends Rohan and Devika.Hi: अनाया के मन में एक सपना था – इस साल की पतंगबाजी प्रतियोगिता जीतकर अपने दादा की याद को ज़िंदा करना।En: Anaya had a dream—to win this year's kite flying competition and keep the memory of her grandfather alive.Hi: उसके दादा ने उसे पहली पतंग उड़ाना सिखाई थी और वह उनके साथ बिताए पल आज भी अनाया की यादों में ताज़ा थे।En: Her grandfather had taught her to fly her first kite, and those moments spent with him were still fresh in Anaya's memories.Hi: लेकिन यह सफर आसान नहीं था।En: But this journey was not easy.Hi: रोहन का मानना था कि इस आधुनिक युग में इन परंपराओं का कोई खास महत्व नहीं है।En: Rohan believed that in this modern era, these traditions hold no particular significance.Hi: वहीं, दूसरी ओर, देविका जो पास के गांव से आई थी, प्रतियोगिता में अनाया की प्रमुख प्रतिद्वंद्वी थी।En: On the other hand, Devika, who had come from a nearby village, was Anaya's main competitor in the competition.Hi: घाट के किनारे लगाई दुकानें, रंग-बिरंगी पतंगों और पतंग उड़ाने वाला मांझा बेच रही थीं।En: The shops set up along the ghat were selling colorful kites and kite-flying string.Hi: अनाया के पास संसाधन सीमित थे, लेकिन उसने ठान लिया था कि इस बार वह विशेष पतंग बनाएगी।En: Anaya had limited resources, but she was determined to make a special kite this time.Hi: एक ऐसी पतंग जो उसके दादा के डिज़ाइनों की झलक दिखाएगी।En: A kite that would reflect her grandfather's designs.Hi: जैसे ही वह बाजार में पहुँची, उसने अपनी थोड़ी बचत से कुछ दुर्लभ और चमकदार कागज़ तथा मजबूत मांझा खरीदा।En: As soon as she reached the market, she used her little savings to buy some rare and shiny paper and sturdy string.Hi: प्रतियोगिता की सुबह, वाराणसी के आकाश में हर तरफ रंग-बिरंगी पतंगें लहरा रही थीं।En: On the morning of the competition, the sky over Varanasi was filled with colorful kites.Hi: अनाया ने अपनी पूरी मेहनत से बनाई पतंग उड़ाई।En: Anaya flew the kite she had made with all her hard work.Hi: उसकी पतंग ऊपर उठी और धूप में चमकने लगी।En: Her kite rose and began to shine in the sunlight.Hi: वह अपनी पतंग के साथ आगे बढ़ रही थी, तभी रोहन की पतंग उलझ गई।En: She was progressing with her kite when Rohan's kite got tangled.Hi: अनाया ने देखा कि रोहन की पतंग उसकी पतंग को भी गिरा सकती है।En: Anaya saw that Rohan's kite could also bring her kite down.Hi: अनाया की आंखों के सामने उसका लक्ष्य था लेकिन उसने अपने भीतर आवाज सुनी।En: Before her eyes stood her goal, but she heard a voice inside her.Hi: वह तुरंत रोहन की मदद करने चली गई।En: She immediately went to help Rohan.Hi: उसकी यह बात देखकर आस-पास के लोग भी उसकी सहानुभूति के कायल बन गए।En: Upon seeing this, the people around were also impressed by her empathy.Hi: इस बैलेंसिंग एक्ट के कारण अनाया ने प्रतियोगिता नहीं जीती, लेकिन उसे वह सम्मान मिला जो किसी भी जीत से बढ़कर था।En: Because of this balancing act, Anaya did not win the competition, but she received an honor greater than any victory.Hi: लोग उसे और उसके दादा की कहानियों को सुनने के लिए इकट्ठा हो गए।En: People gathered to listen to her and her grandfather's stories.Hi: अनाया ने महसूस किया कि सच्ची जीत दिलों में अपनी जगह बनाना है और रोहन को भी यह समझ में आ गया कि परंपराएं और उनके साथ जुड़े किस्से कितने महत्वपूर्ण हैं।En: Anaya realized that true victory is making a place in people's hearts, and Rohan also understood how important traditions and the stories associated with them are.Hi: इस तरह, अनाया ने अपने संघर्ष और सहानुभूति से अपने दादा के सपने को एक अलग ही ऊंचाई पर पहुँचाया, जहाँ जीत से कहीं बढ़कर एक अमूल्य शिक्षा थी।En: In this way, Anaya elevated her grandfather's dream to a different height through her struggle and empathy, where a priceless lesson was more significant than any victory.

Lili asked hesitantly, looking at the surrounding crowd with concern.Zh: "当然可以！今天风大，是放风筝的好天气。"明自信地说。En: "Of course we can! It's windy today, perfect weather for kite flying," Ming replied confidently.Zh: 而杰则在一旁笑着插嘴："别担心，丽丽，如果风筝飞走了，我们至少有杰哥帮忙捡帽子！"En: Jie chuckled and chimed in, "Don't worry, Lili, if the kite flies away, at least brother Jie is here to help retrieve the hats!"Zh: 三人找了个稍微空旷的地方，试着让风筝在空中翩翩起舞。En: The three found a slightly open space and tried to let the kite gracefully dance in the sky.Zh: 然而，风筝刚升起，就因为墙上的强风而晃动得厉害。En: However, as soon as the kite rose, it wobbled fiercely due to the strong winds on the wall.Zh: "糟糕！它缠住了女士的帽子！"丽丽喊道。En: "Oh no! It's tangled with a lady's hat!" Lili exclaimed.Zh: 更糟糕的是，每次风筝绳一拂而过，总有一个游客因帽子被带走而惊慌失措。En: Even worse, each time the kite's string brushed by, it caused panic as it took away a tourist's hat.Zh: 明开始感到心急，他决心要让风筝不在地面惹麻烦。En: Ming began to feel anxious and was determined to keep the kite from causing trouble on the ground.Zh: "我们去那边！人少一点！"他指了指墙的另一边。En: "Let's go over there! Fewer people!" he pointed to the other side of the wall.Zh: 他们移到另一边，那里确实少了很多游客，但风更强。En: They moved to the other side, where indeed there were fewer tourists, but the wind was stronger.Zh: 几次尝试后，风筝再次高高地飞起。En: After several attempts, the kite flew high again.Zh: 可是没过多久，风筝突然俯冲下来，勾住了一位导游的帽子。En: But before long, it suddenly swooped down and hooked onto a tour guide's hat.Zh: 导游本在给游客们讲解，他的帽子飞起，全场安静后却是一阵欢笑。En: The tour guide, who was explaining things to tourists, had his hat taken away, which brought laughter after the initial silence.Zh: "抱歉，抱歉！"明连忙道歉。En: "Sorry, Sorry!" Ming quickly apologized.Zh: 导游哈哈大笑："没关系！天空四通八达，分享快乐吧！让我来试试这个风筝如何？"En: The tour guide laughed heartily, "No worries! The sky is vast and open, let's share the joy! Let me have a go with the kite!"Zh: 随着导游的加入，一切变得更加有趣。En: With the tour guide's participation, everything became more amusing.Zh: 他教大家如何在风中找到平衡，如何让风筝稳稳飞翔。En: He taught everyone how to find balance in the wind and how to keep the kite flying steadily.Zh: 不久，所有人都沉浸在这场意外的快乐中。En: Soon, everyone was immersed in this unexpected joy.Zh: 望着飞到高高云端的风筝，明笑了。En: Watching the kite soar high up to the clouds, Ming smiled.Zh: 他明白，不必追求完美。En: He realized that there was no need to strive for perfection.Zh: “有时候，过程比结果更令人难忘。”他对丽丽和杰说。En: "Sometimes, the process is more unforgettable than the result," he said to Lili and Jie.Zh: "没错，我的帽子是最好的风筝道具！"杰调皮地说。En: "That's right, my hat is the best kite accessory!" Jie joked mischievously.Zh: 在长城上，这一天留下了他们共同的欢笑声，也让明明白了有时候与朋友共同经历不完美，也是一种快乐。En: On the Great Wall, the day left behind their shared laughter, and it also taught Ming that sometimes, going through the imperfections with friends is a form of happiness itself.

Pihak PT Angkasa Pura pun menyampaikan permohonan maaf.Benda yang terlihat sepele ternyata bisa mengancam keselamatan orang lain. Layang-layang rupanya jadi faktor penyebab penerbangan di Bandara Soekarno-Hatta terpaksa delay.Seperti dilaporkan detikTravel, layang-layang berada di ketinggian 500-600 meter di daerah landasan pacu. Demi menjaga keselamatan dan keamanan penerbangan, pesawat terpaksa berputar di atas bandara, bahkan ada yang sampai dialihkan ke bandara lain.Sejumlah pesawat terganggu jadwal penerbangannya seperti, Transnusa dengan nomor penerbangan TNU5533 (Yogyakarta-Jakarta), Lion air JT797 (Ujung Pandang-Jakarta), Batik Air ID6205 dan ID 7150, Super Air Jet IU623 (Banjarmasin-Jakarta) dan IU681 (Pontianak-Jakarta).Bandara Soetta menempati urutan ke-6 indeks gangguan penerbangan di seluruh dunia dengan total 204 penerbangan mengalami delay.Lewat akun X, PT Angkasa Pura menyampaikan permohonan maaf. "PT Angkasa Pura Indonesia mengucapkan permohonan maaf atas ketidaknyamanan yang dialami. Terkait kejadian adanya layang-layang di sekitar area Bandara Soekarno-Hatta yang berdampak pada keterlambatan penerbangan," tulis mereka.Selain melarang menerbangkan layang-layang, Angkasa Pura juga mengimbau masyarakat untuk tidak menerbangkan benda lain termasuk drone di sekitar kawasan bandara.Sumber berita: CNN Indonesia Sumber gambar: Shyam di UnsplashTerima kasih banyak atas dukungannya untuk:SAHABAT WINDAHAkiramJayNyong Jago Bob GenericJohn nyMartin JankovskýWilliam ChenDawid GerstelDRamzan BAlex PepinnsSebastianAlexander ScholtesJrobabuja11 RoboNicholai LidowAliteJack William HusbandsAndre ChampouxDemiAlastair JudsonKatherine WalkerLino ArboledaLeon KwekCameron Edinger-ReeveSam BayleyLivvieIsmail OtchiChrisRussell BarlowMary PopeIga Komar帥志 Shuai Chih LinBjornrappangeHossein KhoshtaghazaAldoParis LuckowskiMatthew O'ConnorRussell OgdenYaszalix子强 孙Bart van de KampWC Kon태엽 주Arthur NazaryanDaniel Kaposi TEMAN WINDAHJohn McBride  Kristofer Nivens  P.

In new remarks for this week's baseball and history reprise, we argue about bunts, kites, and kings—why would anyone wish for any of them? Kites are okay, of course, but the other two are problematic. We then revisit the Brooklyn Dodgers with Jackie Robinson asked to comment on a fallen Hall of Famer who had once been his teammate, then jump back to the days before World War II, when the America First Committee wanted to take over a baseball stadium for one of their isolationist/anti-Semitic rallies. The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. Baseball, America's brighter mirror, often reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman discusses the game's present, past, and future with forays outside the foul lines to the culture at large. Expect history, politics, stats, and frequent Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out? 

Fear doesn't disappear—you just learn how to move with it. Jenny Milton, aka "Adrenaline Jenny," breaks down how courage is built, not born.

When Danielle Grandholm's daughter was diagnosed with Down syndrome, she and her husband found themselves without adequate support. This experience led them to start Rising Kites, a nonprofit dedicated to helping parents of children with Down syndrome. What began as an unexpected journey became a source of blessing as Danielle witnessed God's providence and grace throughout the process, demonstrating how God can transform challenges into opportunities to serve others and experience His care.  Rising Kites  We'll Paint the Octopus Red by Stephanie Stuve-Bodeen, Pam Devito (Illustrator)  The Princess and the Pony by Kate Beaton  The Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese    Are you a Christian educator?

This has been one of those rare weeks where enough happened to fuel several weeks of bird reports — a spring nor'easter that poured rare seabirds into Cape Cod Bay, a colony of at least five apparently nesting Swallow-tailed Kites in Mashpee that also shattered the state high count, and, most importantly, the cuteness overload of baby owls fledging in my very own yard.

Derek Shulman was at the heart of two great transformations – Simon Dupree & the Big Sound switching to psychedelia, and then sensing the prog-rock trade winds and becoming Gentle Giant. One minute he was singing Kites, the next Pantagruel's Nativity (Gentle Giant's rebooted ‘Playing The Fool: The Complete Live Experience' is just out). After which he was a record label president signing Bon Jovi, Slipknot and Nickelback and rebooting AC/DC and Bad Company. It's a phenomenal story and involves …   … three pieces of advice for any band today. … playing the ‘64 circuit in his R&B band the Roadrunners. … the fictitious character he invented as Simon Dupree. … when Dudley Moore was their session pianist. … memories of Marc Bolan (“flat on his back playing guitar”), Tony Iommi, Tony Visconti, Don Arden, Gerry Bron and “the English mob”. … what they borrowed from Traffic in the Great Psychedelic Scare of 1967.  … auditioning for George Martin and the lab-coated sound engineers at Abbey Road. … being phoned on a ship returning from Sweden to be told ‘Kites' was Top Twenty and doing Top Of The Pops with Status Quo and the Kinks. … “cars and bags of jewels”: the advantage of being “the darlings of the Isle of Wight Mafia” (which included the Krays). … watching Bowie recording The Man Who Sold The World at Trident. … Elton John's advice that helped form Gentle Giant. … the catastrophic US tour with Black Sabbath (on their “chemical romance”) where the audience threw cherry-bombs onstage: “you learnt how to work a crowd!” … George Underwood's cover for the first Gentle Giant album. … what he saw in Slipknot and why he signed them. You can order GENTLE GIANT – PLAYING THE FOOL: THE COMPLETE LIVE EXPERIENCE here: https://gentlegiantuk.lnk.to/PTFFind out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Today's episode is a sneak peak from our upcoming summit. We speak with Drs. Lindsay and Lexie Kite, authors of More Than a Body, about how parents can help their children develop a healthy body image in a world that often prioritizes appearance over well-being. We explore the concept of self-objectification and how societal pressures, especially through media, can lead kids—particularly girls—to view their bodies as ornaments rather than instruments.The Kites emphasize body image resilience, encouraging parents to challenge harmful beauty standards and model a positive relationship with their own bodies. They share practical strategies for fostering a healthier mindset in children, including focusing on what bodies can do rather than how they look, promoting media literacy, and reinforcing self-worth beyond appearance.This episode offers essential insights for parents looking to raise confident, body-positive kids in today's image-focused culture.
