Tenzin:old man how will we know we are taking right step in our life.
Daikin:we never know ,there is no such think as right or wrong step ,there are only right deeds.
Daikin:I will tell you a little secret tenzin,I never told this to anyone,I am telling this to you because I believe in you ,i see reflexion of me in your eyes I don't want you to make the same mistake which I did.
Daikin:whenever you hesitate to take a step forward ,just question yourself will my step make a change, will it prevail humanity,will it bring my dream closer to me. And also the one who always prevails in this cruel world is the one who holds the power to forgive, be kind my kid
Tenzin:i don't know old man but you seem suffering inside even though you are smiling is it just my imagination?

Tenzin:i changed my mind you don't seem like a important person you are poor(i think)
Daikin:you sure are a notorious one.and am damn rich kid
It took them an entire day to climb the mountain its night time just when they arrive at the temple gate Daikin bends to signal tenzin to walk
Tenzin was in owe of the beautiful combined sceneries of waterfalls ,fog settled down at the foot of mountain ,the huge gigantic monestry, training ground,and the most important the night sky It's full of stars filled with chilled air.
They both lie down on chilled green grass to take a break facing toward gigantic open sky,both of there eyes are wide open
And they have a huge innocent smile on there face as if they have almost left all of the worries of the world in past ,
Tenzins eyes are full of tears ,he seems to remember some vague image of his past
Like he is seeing a sky full of freedom with his parents,but the tears in his eyes are not of sadness its the tears of extreme happiness ,its like a mother's warmth to him.
Tenzin:i don't know why Daikin san i can't stop my tears .please help me
Seeing tenzins eyes Daikins eyes to filled with tears,he immediately tightly hugged tenzin and whispered in a mild and worried voice
Daikin:don't worry! I will be always with you my kid.
The hug from daikin was like a father's love to him.
Tenzin immediately wipes his tears and says while smiling
Tenzin:don't hold to tightly old man you will break your bones because my bones are stronger than you.
Daikin:we will see that in the morning kid let's go to the monestry now I will give you the tour in the morning.
