In a small village in rural India , there lived a little girl named priya wid her family. She loved her family very much, most of all her chachu who loved her back equally. He gave her whatever she wanted and supported her in every decision she took.
And thus she completed her schooling.

One fine day priya came to know that she passed all her examinations with highest marks and stood first in her class.She was very happy but der was a problem.............in those days all the girls of her age were married.................dey were happy!
now priya dint know what to do....................should she get married according to her parents wish or was she destined to do something else............................. ?????

The next day she went to her chachu and started crying. loookin at her cry like that he was worried. He said " my dear little angel why are u crying?" ,she replied" i dont know" ,he was even more worried. then she replied " i dont know what i want from my life."
After listening to what she said concern took place of worry in his heart!

He could help her by making a decision for her...........which she would happily obey........buthe did not do that. Instead he wanted to help her in making a decision for herself.
He told her that everything would be fine and sent her home. And then he started thinking of a solution which would make his little angel happy again................

Her chachu thought of a plan and went to priya's home one day.He took her to the house of a nearby farmer who was his friend.

He showed her a parrot which was enclosed in a bird cage at the farmers house.On returning the farmer set the bird free.But within sometime the parrot returned back to its master who put in back in the cage.

On their way back to home, her chachu asked priya that "why did she think did that parrot return back to its master when it could fly away?" Priya thought for some time................n den replied " chachu i think that the parrot returned because it wanted to, it chose to come back.

Her chachu then said that " my dear little daughter, you like that parrot should make a choice of what you want to do with your life. you have to choose wether you want to continue your studies or do you want to marry? Because " DESTINY IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT"

Priya's eyes filled with tears as she listened to her chachu, and suddenly she hugged her chachu and said " I love you chachu, I would not know what I wanted if you were not there."
She then told " I CHOOSE TO STUDY FURTHER CHACHU, I WANT TO STUDY." The society did not approve of girls studying further but her family most of all her chachu stood with her through all the odds and admitted her into a reputed college.
And thus her wish of studying was fullfilled and she went on to become a doctor which made her family feel proud of her and even the villagers who were against her when she chose to study further accepted her happily and some of them even sent their children for higher studies.
Later on priya married as per her parents wishes and lived happily ever after.

This is the story of PRIYA who with the help of her chachu came to know that a person himself is responsible to design his destiny. She chose studies over the custom of early marriage, who chose herself over the unreasonable rules of the society.And by choosing she designed her own destiny which made her live life to the fullest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
