The day Sun & Sea spoke to me, I stopped expecting gratitude and dropped the need for appreciation. Do you know what they told me? They said:" Do you find people appreciating us? Maybe 1%, most don't even consciously realise that we exist. We know that if we stop working for a day, there would be huge chaos, confusion and disturbance. Our sense of duty makes us very accountable to perform every moment." That day, I not only dropped expecting gratitude, but felt sorry for those who do not realise and appreciate the good in others. Especially those who forget the way they travelled, for whom parents, siblings & relatives were no more important but a burden....Thanks for letting me Live, Love, Lead, Learn and Light!
What's meant to be yours is already making its way to you. What was never your's is starting to flee from you. With time it will all make sense. For now bear the confusion and focus on living fully in the present. Don't let your whole life be 'I'll be happy when", Be Happy Now. When you are in a dark place, you think you are buried, but you may be planted. Knocking at my door the the angels from heaven left me a package that said your life is enclosed in the box. I feared- what if it had wings? It would fly if I opened the lid. Then after many years, one night an angel held my hands and walked me along a river bank. It whispered into my ears, "For the fear of loosing one you may be loosing it all - open your box and let it fly if it wants to." Remember :
1) This too will pass away.
2) If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it.
3) If it is to be, it is up to me.
4) There is so much of good in the worst of us, and so much of bad in the best of us, that it ill behooves any of us, to find fault with the rest of us.
Here is my Vision Board. A picture is equal to thousand words, isn't it? Moreover it gives the viewers a right to their imagination and interpretation, irrespective of how aligned it is to the doer. Let's have fun, but not at the cost of others. Satyamev Jayate. You live life, only once! Live it right, with dignity. With Love. Be Kind. Stay Blessed. Be Good. My Dears. Don't compare your life with others. Everyone you meet in life is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Everything in life comes with an expiry date including you and me. Until my expire date embrace me, I go on with a body of clay, mind full of play, a second of life with immense gratitude for this gift, trying to hand over the baloon of happiness to whom it belong. Wondering what it means? Read the story below:
In these days of Twitter, Instagram and podcasts, it is refreshing to see someone consistently keeping a blog going all these years. I came across this blog quite by chance while trying to dig up one of my own long forgotten blogs from the 2000s: I found that you had quoted some parts from my writing in one of your entries from 2009 (Nov 15, 2009, to be precise). Do keep writing and have a great day ahead!
