I kept hearing a voice, Calling me to paths unknown. I turned to look at who it was? My inner child called me, From a distance that was long. I found it crying, Things did not make sense. Hand in hand, we now walk, All we did was talk. Where is your inner child? Have you ever thought?

C hapter 1 What does Torro mean?

An Evening in the park. My wife and I went for a walk. Torro, our little one, was playing on the swings. “What does Torro mean?” someone asked. My wife stared at me because the credit for all strange things goes to me. “Torro means bull in Spanish,” I said. They laughed. “Torro, come here,” I called her aloud. I kneeled. “Do you know what Torro means?” I asked. Nods no. “It means bull in Spanish,” I said. I slowly said something in her ear. Torro held the lady by her legs which made her scream out of fear of falling. 1

Torro: The Storm that brings peace

Nobody laughed. A little child can make someone fall. Grown- ups should build each other up. “It does not matter what her name means in different languages or in any dictionary,” I made my closing remark. At Night, before bedtime. “Torro, do you know the story behind your name?” I asked. Nods no. “Your Mom and I playfully argued a lot. It was like a storm. So, I asked her if we can name you Tornado, our storm?” Laughs. “She was so angry with me,” I said. Laughs. “It was a good kind of storm. It made me love her more. So, we named you Torro,” I said. Nods. “Torro means bull in Spanish but it has strength. Tornado means a storm, which can be destructive but it has power. For me, you are the storm that brings peace,” I said. My wife came with a glass of milk. 2

“Muma, I am Torro,” she said while jumping on the bed. “Torro means someone who is loved by her Mom and Dad. This is the only meaning you need to know,” she said. She drank milk and it was her bedtime. Torro nods and does not add much words on most days. You must keep looking at her to understand her wordless ways. She believes what we say. The meanings that we give to things form a picture in her mind. The world will not define who our kid is, we will. It adds a sense of responsibility. Torro: our storm, our peace.

C hapter 2 Torro and her juice

We were sitting on the couch while talking and saw Torro walking towards the kitchen. “Hey, what is Torro doing?” I looked at my wife. “I think she needs help. I should go,” she said. “Let her do it on her own,” I suggested. Torro walks out with a glass of her favourite orange juice. “I think she will spill it,” my wife said slowly. Intuitively holding back energy like her voice will spill the juice from the glass. She looked at me. “Don’t act smart,” said her eyes. Torro spills the juice. Torroooo… She looked at us, ready to explain the logic which was beyond our understanding. 5
