Breathe in what surrounds you and exhale the gladness that builds up within. There truly is no greater life than the one we live enjoying the little joys that are offered to us. There exists happiness in every little thing that we encounter, the people we meet, the things we touch, the relationships we build….”For happiness is what we create and not really what exists”…..
Our Value on Earth….
28 SepOur Value on earth is measured by our actions, our words and all those little things we do. The joy that we can share with those in need of smile is a treasure that mere words will not explain or express. We have all the power possible at our fingertips that we can utilize and use efficiently and effectively if only we stopped at times and gave thought to some little things which we always consider insignificant…..Just reach out and make a change, that’s the best you could do in this life…..
Sustenance over everything
25 MarThe ability to overcome and deal with every hurdle all along the way has always been a secret. We read books and have been witness to media that proclaims that the truth has been revealed, but its still hard to determine what reality is . The best bet would be to rely on yourself to sustain yourself in all weather. Aid come to no one, who seeks it and nor does it offer you a solution even if it does.
I look at the waterfall and realize that it stops at nothing in its path. It wants to flow , so it does, it looks not at the hurdles or the rocks in its path but just flows on and on and on…..
Would you like to be like the waterfall described ? Just decide your path and start flowing , you would definitely get where you want to…
Wonder
4 AprWonder if the roads took me where I wanted to go.Wonder if the winding paths up these mountains took me to God and to Heaven, where the clouds touched the earth and the breeze that wrapped around you was from the wings of Angels. just wonder how the grasslands of time would take you into this dimension of illusion that we would have been able to look into…..
If time Stood Still
26 MarIf time stood still, I wouldn’t have changed a thing about it. I would have watched the sun fade away from the horizon , yet take nothing away from me. I would count the rain drops and watch them get absorbed by the dry earth. I would watch the falling leaves of autumn remain in the very same place year after year and would let the rustling remind me of all the moments gone past….
I would watch the stars at night smile down on me every night , and twinkle through the hardest and coldest days on earth.More then always I would admire the youth that remained on the faces of mankind, where age was not a factor and remained as reminder which was not spoken of……
I wish fairies still existed among us and Narnia was not just a story we all watched in theaters…..
Life’s Story
12 MarThe word Life itself speaks for itself, it tell’s you a tale of never ending stories. Some beautiful, some wonderful, some we remember for the rest of our lives, some which we don’t, some which give us nightmares, some that haunt us every moment, and then there are some which we are in even at the moment, some which we would never like to talk about , some which don’t allow us to even live normal live, yet we go on crossing hurdles all the time, bearing up with situations, compromising, sacrificing and trying to live.
What we never have realized however is how much of the situation are we responsible for ? How much have we done to improve the quality of our lives? Have we ever stopped for a brief moment and ponder over these phases of life? We never , we never do , in fact we ignore things to the extent that by the time a situation reaches its optimum height, it much to late for anything to be done about the entire episode. We never use opportunities that come our way, to turn situations around, in fact we would rather crib about how the entire world of ours has gone from bad to worse, Topsy turvy, stressful,miserable etc. But I once again come back to the same question ” Why didn’t you ever do anything about improving a situation? I’m sure that decisions that are taken in most circumstances are self-made decisions. Very few personal decisions are manipulated or instigated which leaves, just you and the problem. So the point here is to start today, start working on the problem and make yourself happier with Life.
I would like to emphasize a lot on the word’s, initiative,effort and determination. The first one ,Initiative is the most important because without a decision in place, there is fairly very little that you can expect as a result. A result is nothing but the fruit of initiative, so if we get back to the beginning , we are able to draw conclusions that, initiative is a point of no return, stepping into the circle, could obviously make you a part of the process which defines your tomorrow. Now how nice would it be to have all the good things in life happen for you, but yet again it all depends on the initial initiative that you put in to see a change.Its human behavior that everyone is for himself, so having less expectations from others and working on your ambitions is what would get you where you want to get.Making oneself self-independent , self reliant and building up an aura of self-confidence are the values that can be incorporated to attain personal happiness and joy in life.
Wen we talk of effort , we speak of carrying out a task without breaks until its complete, now that’s effort. Lacking confidence and motivation would deprive you of a vision and that leads to failure, or a result that is either incomplete or a result that is unsatisfactory. The Golden rule we should follow is putting in the required effort to achieve a desired result.Now ignorant of the fact whether the result is one that you expect or desire, it still teaches us a lot. Man somehow learns something new every day of his life, the learning process would never be a highway free of debris. Challenges are a part of the effort process, but the secret of gaining from effort is to look at it from a positive aspect, because negatives of situations at any given time overtake the positives, so it really would depend on how you take your efforts forward
When talking of determination , that’s something we all lack. We either don’t have it or we just don’t use it even if we do possess it.What matters is how serious are you about getting where you want to. Bear in mind the attitude you shelter in mind and the goal that is your ambition, because clear thoughts would help you determine your determination.

8 MarYou cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do. In the end we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit.
