In the past months, Sanjiv has queries on death. My husband gets worried when he hears such question from him. On the other hand, I tried to stay calm and answer his question as much as possible. But never in detail.
Finally one day, I decided to answer him. Here is how our conversation went
Sanjiv 'when you die, are you born as a baby'
Me : 'Mostly yes, sometime you are also born as puppy or cow'
Sanjiv: 'I don't want to be born as puppy or ant'
'Do we get to keep the same name and same parents'
Me : 'We dont know where we will be born or what name we will get'
Saniv 'Thank gosh, you are still not too old'
Me : 'Ya baby, don't worry we all have long time. We will be happy family for many more years'
Sanjiv: 'Amma, I want the same thatha(grandpa). I don't want any other thatha'.
Me : 'Dont worry'. You are going to have same family only.
After this detail talk, he stopped to ask about death again.
But after few days, he saw me having a grey hair. He was like, mom don't worry. It is just one and you are not that old yet !!!!!!!!!! Oh gosh, this boy and his though correlations :)-
