Don't' believe the hype!  Life isn't that good.  I used to believe the Leave It To Beaver and Andy Griffith reruns that I grew up on.  Not anymore.   Experience quickly taught me that life is not just black and white. As a tween, I was still confused because life was showing me more hardship, but TV kept showing me more great families like The Cosby's and the Keatons from Family Ties.  Then, the show Rosanne premiered.  This was ground-breaking at the time because it represented a not-so-perfect TV sitcom family.   America loved it.   Rosanne was a highly rated show for a while, but it didn't last.  Before I knew it, TV was back to either representing family life as sweet and perfect as the Fresh Prince of Bel Aire or MTV was showing me the craziest of people on the new fad of reality TV.  Needless to say, I learned to stop watching TV altogether.  My life expectations were confused!               Today's kids are in the same predicament!  Social media shows everyone happy.  Life is perfect in the pictures of Instagram and Facebook.  These picture-perfect moments are making our kids feel inadequate. Everyone else is having more fun in the Snapchat videos.  But this generation has it worse.   The TV shows of my day weren't personal.  I was still several degrees away from knowing Michael J. Fox and Will Smith.  Today, photos and videos are personal.  They are posts of the kids at school. People they see walking in the halls.   Social media makes life look perfect and creates unrealistic expectations for our children.  Life is not that great!  We only post the good parts. What do we do as parents?  How can we combat unrealistic expectations? Well, unfortunately, most parents make it worse by sheltering their kids too much and putting them on teams where everyone gets a trophy. As parents, we are to prepare our kids for the real world.  We want our kids to grow up, leave home, and be successful adults.  If you're not preparing your kids for real-world expectations and skills for combating real-world issues, then you are not preparing your kids to be successful.  In fact, you are setting them up for failure.   Of course, we all want our kids safe and happy, but life isn't that good.  We need to prepare our kids for the hard times too.   Let me tell you another story…. My son runs cross county and is a good athlete.  Having said that, he isn't a runner.  He runs cross country for his team, but it's not his primary sport, nor is his body the made-to-run tall and thinly built.  Last week, his small school competed against some big schools in the area, and my wonderful son ran across the finish line last.   Yep dead last.   As a parent, I had a few choices on how to react to this.  Get mad at the coach for setting him up for failure Cry with him and soothe him. Tell him that he is a great runner, and the next time he will do better. Tell him the truth. Remind him that running is not his primary sport. He did a great job.  Tell him that I was proud of him for never giving up and talk to him about the realities of coming in last. Yes, I took path number 3.  Sometimes in life, we come in last.   Sometimes others deserve to win more.  As parents, it is important to teach humility, effort, and grace as much as it is to teach them grit and drive. Learning these lessons are never easy, but learning them at a young age is much better.  When children are young, they can rationalize better and process experiences better.  Learning hard lessons young gives them time to learn coping skills. The younger you can teach your kids to lose, and congratulate others who out-perform you,  the more drive they will have to win!  Better yet, winning will become more meaningful and something they can be proud of.   So put your kids in sports, clubs, and competitions where they can win AND lose.  Don't shelter them from loss.  Instead, take losing as an opportunity to teach them valuable lessons.  The short-term may be hard, but in the long run, you will be giving them a much more beneficial experience.  Watch out that you don't become one of those overprotective parents!

Transcript: Life in 3 Words The three words are: Born Contend and Die. Life is a long journey explained in different ways by different philosophers. It’s a beautiful journey for few people and it’s a horrible journey for some other people. Whatever it’s, definition may be. The important thing is “don’t forget to live.” Because ,there may be no life after death. Live the present moment like a hero of your life. Let’s know life in three simple words we listen mostly during our daily routine. The first word is: Born We know birth is start of life for every entity on this planet. It’s a great occasion I mean you have just arrived into this world. It doesn’t happen easily. After passing complex processes in the womb of mother, you have just entered the world receiving welcome wishes from your loved ones around you and they are very happy for you and nothing can replace their happiness anyway. You may be crying when you are just born but people around you are smiling and celebrating your arrival. It’s a great success for your parents and family. They love you so much and believe me the love in them is very unconditional. The second word is Contend We grow that’s what happens after few days after your birth, and the growth will be continuing and here the real unexplainable things start to happen. At this phase you have to contend in this world to make your survival possible. You should be learning things and performing. You have to face hard situations. You have to earn a living. You have to build relationships. You have to succeed. You have to fail and you have to learn. You have to manage things. Believe me in this stage you cannot have pure unconditional love from people around you which you got in the first stage. You are on your own here. You have to believe in you and things you do. In this stage you have to manage all the time to make people stick to you at least showing their conditional love. Remember the rule “Manage people with love and May you get least back.” The third word is Die. Everyone has to die someday which is painful truth and not all cares about death that may occur in the future at some point of unknown time. It just happens like unexplained magic that is you just die and you don’t take anything accomplished here on earth. People around you cry for your loss and at this stage people love you which is unconditional and therefore they cry or show their sadness for your life. Things to remember: “People love you unconditionally, during your birth and death. Then in the middle of these two things, you just have to manage people, so that you get little love and survive.” “Birth and death are natural”. But Birth is a beautiful lie and death is a painful truth which you have to believe in all your life. Thanks for listening... An Inspired Writing by Manikanta Belde..

Transcript: Life on Earth originated in water, and it grew to multicelled complexity in the oceans. Small organisms, however, could have found plenty of niches on land to survive, in ponds or in small pools of water. It’s likely that algae did this over half a billion years ago. Larger organisms must have taken longer to reach the land because they needed a way of gathering nutrients from the soil and the air rather just from water. Plants and fungi were probably the first to make the leap to land, facilitated the by the rise in oxygen and the ozone layer which would have protected organisms on land from cellular damage. Four hundred and fifty million years ago, perhaps four hundred and eighty million years ago, the first plants reached the land. Animals followed about four hundred million years ago. The first animals on land were of course amphibians, able to survive both a liquid and a dry environment. By three hundred and fifty million years ago, the Carboniferous era, vast forests filled with insects populated the land mass, and of course over this period the deposition of organisms in layers of sediment lead to the deposition of coal and oil that fueled our industrial revolution.

Transcript: Life itself, the atmosphere, the oceans, and the land form a complex interdependent system on the Earth. Although the Earth is chemically and biologically complex, it is not itself alive. There is a hypothesis called the Gaia hypothesis, named after an ancient goddess, that says that the entire ecosystem of the Earth acts like a living organism, but there’s no good scientific evidence for this. However, the interdependence of life on Earth is substantial and will affect our ability to survive on this planet. We can think of the metaphor of Spaceship Earth. All of our nutrients and our survivable conditions depend on maintaining the ecosystem of this planet which we have already altered with toxins, carbon dioxide release, and global warming. It's a sobering prospect, but the durability of life depends on the size and complexity of the organisms. Microbial life forms can form and survive in extreme conditions and are the most durable forms of life we know. The larger organisms on this planet, including ourselves, are much more fragile. It is clearly cheaper for us to survive on this planet than to move off Earth. Space travel is extraordinarily expensive. A simple manned mission to Mars will probably cost several hundred billion dollars, and the cost of a spaceship that could travel to the stars is beyond the resources of any country or even all countries on Earth.

Transcript: Life on Earth formed in water. Earth is the water planet, and water is believed to be essential for life if life elsewhere is similar to that on Earth. Water is forty to ninety percent of the mass of all plants and animals. Even though we or our ancestors emerged from the oceans hundreds of millions of years ago, we are mostly made of water. Water in a cosmic sense is the most abundant liquid molecule in the universe, so it’s perhaps natural that water might be the basis of life. It's a solvent that facilitates chemical reactions which must have been important in the development of the first biology. It’s not the only possible solvent. At lower temperatures, for example, ethanol, which boils at minus eighty-nine degrees and freezes at minus a hundred and seventy-two degrees centigrade, could be used. Or at higher temperatures, phenol, which freezes at forty three degrees centigrade and boils at a hundred and eighty-two, but water is the best solvent. Being a solvent and having the properties that water does allows organisms to regulate their temperature. Water also absorbs ultraviolet radiation and so protects the cells from damage, and it has the unique property that it expands upon freezing so when life formed in the ponds or oceans of the early Earth, they did not freeze solid. Water is not unique as a liquid or as a solvent or as a basis for life, but its best in all of its properties for the formation of life.

Transcript: Life forms on Earth can exist and thrive in extreme chemical conditions corresponding to acid or base. Acidophiles can thrive in conditions where the pH is less than five. That's similar to sulfuric acid. Examples include the sulfur pots in Yellowstone Park, volcanic soils, and of course the gastric fluid in the human stomach. At the opposite extreme are alkaliphiles which can exist and thrive at pHs greater than nine. Examples include soda lakes in Africa and soils that are rich in carbonates.
