My life

May 20, 2023 0 Comments


 ‘I was never a writer and I don’t aspire to be one either.


I was never a good reader and I don’t know if I will ever be one.

But now, I have been much more.


‘Every day, I woke up;
I tried to find reasons to live.

Every night, when I slept, I tried to find reasons to not die.

Every moment, I tried to find reasons to hope, dream and love.

But I never found them.
Until I met you.

‘I saw chaos, confusion, and fear all around me.

But not within me, after I met you.


‘Time decides our fate, our journey.

And when time changes, everything changes.

Everything.


Sometimes for worse, sometimes for better.

And sometimes, for the best.

I never believed that.
Until you happened to me.

‘It’s not a story and maybe it’s not love.

It’s about something more real than stories and more
powerful than love.

It’s about you.
Yes, you.
Real and powerful.


‘I have never been happy with someone.

I wanted to be with different people at different places with
different feelings.

I wanted to explore everything, know everyone.

But then I explored you.

And I found you are not just ONE, you are an infinity.

An infinity of love, care, trust, respect, understanding.

A universe of inspirations, aspirations, hope and happiness.

Maybe you are the universe out there which I explore.

Or the universe in me that I seek.


‘You do not start, nor do you ever end.

You are constant, yet ever changing.

You are everywhere and
yet just with me.

You are my creator or my creation, I question myself.’

Scared of....

 ‘Not the people but the mind,


Not the storm but the silence,

Not the answer but the question,

Not the result but the reason,

I am scared of.


Not the real but the dream,

Not the moment but the memory,

Not the lie but the truth,

Not the death but the life,

I am scared of.


Not the end but the start,

Not the strangers but the known,

Not the hate but the love,

Not the world but the me,


I am scared of.’

Live your dream!

May 19, 2023 0 Comments

 


‘Live life in moments, not in days or years or your schedules. 


It’s our misconception—most of the time—that we live our lives the way we want. 


Every single step that we take is influenced by others.


Only the part that we hide from everyone else and keep deep within our heart, is our own.


 I strongly urge you all to realize that hidden part of yours. 

Go, live that part.

 Live your life. 

Don’t let your dreams die within you.

 Trust me, your struggle, your fight, will be worth the risk in opening yourself up. 

Get up. 

Inhale the air of passion.

 Start your journey.

 Grab your dreams. 

Enjoy your mistakes.
 
Dance to the rhythm of your heartbeats.

 Smile. 

Laugh. 

Love. 

Live.’


This is the special 50th post of mine.......
So,my dear mute audience

Happiness is based on perspective

Happiness Is Based on Your Perspective



Whatever the circumstance is,the way you view it makes it different!!


I read about these two men who’d been bricklayers for more than thirty years. They were working on a huge skyscraper downtown. One man was always negative, discouraged, constantly complaining, and dreaded going to work. The other man was just the opposite. He was excited to show up each day and had an attitude of faith and enthusiasm about life.

One day a friend came by the jobsite and asked them separately what they were doing. The first said, “Aw, we’re just laying brick. We’ve been doing this for thirty years. It’s so boring. One brick on top of the other.”

Then the friend asked the second bricklayer. He just lit up. “Why, we’re building a magnificent skyscraper,” he said. “This structure will stand tall for generations to come. I’m just so excited that I could be a part of it.”

Each bricklayer’s happiness or lack of it was based on his perspective. You can be laying brick or you can be building a beautiful skyscraper. The choice is up to you. You can go to work each day and just punch in on the clock and dread being there and do as little as possible. Or you can show up with enthusiasm and give it your best, knowing that you’re making the world a better place.

The lost wallet,a great love story

The lost wallet, a great love story!


As I walked home one freezing day, I stumbled on a wallet someone had lost in the street. 

I picked it up and looked inside to find some identification so I could call the owner. But the wallet contained only three dollars and a crumpled letter that looked as if it had been in there for years.

The envelope was worn and the only thing that was legible on it was the return address.

 I started to open the letter, hoping to find some clue. Then I saw the dateline–1924. The letter had been written almost 60 years ago.

It was written in a beautiful feminine handwriting on powder blue stationery with a little flower in the left-hand corner. 

It was a “Dear John” letter that told the recipient, whose name appeared to be Michael, that the writer could not see him anymore because her mother forbade it. 

Even so, she wrote that she would always love him.

Daddy's hands

 I awoke in the night to find my husband, Marty, gently rocking our baby son, Noah.


I stood for a moment in the doorway, watching this amazing man with whom I was so blessed to share my life, lovingly stroke Noah’s fat pink cheeks in an effort to comfort him.

I felt in my heart that something was seriously wrong with Noah. This was one of several nights Noah had been up, burning with a high fever.

Tears filled my eyes as I watched my beautiful husband move Noah’s little cheek up against his own chest, so that Noah could feel the vibrations of his voice. 

Marriage

A heart touching story that touched my soul when i read it somewhere long back,so sharing it with you guys ....



When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. 

She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.


Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. 

I raised the topic calmly.

She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?

I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. 

She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. 

But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. 

I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. 

Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release.

 The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. 

I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane.

When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce.

Stay passionate in your life

 Sometimes we lie in bed in the morning thinking, I don’t want to go to work today. I’ve got so many problems. I’m sick and tired of cleaning this house.


Unfortunately, you just paved the way to have a lousy day. You made preparations for defeat.

Every obstacle is an Oppurtunity!

 The Obstacle In Our Path 


In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. He then hid himself and watched to see if anyone would move the boulder out of the way. Some of the king’s wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it.

All the Difference in The World 


Every Sunday morning I take a light jog around a park near my home. There’s a lake located in one corner of the park. Each time I jog by th is lake, I see the same elderly woman sitting at the water’s edge with a small metal cage sitting beside her.

Don't judge things easily

THE SEASONS OF LIFEπŸ’₯πŸŒͺ☀️🌀🌧🌈


There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the winter, the second in the spring, the third in summer, and the youngest son in the fall.

When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.

The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted.

The second son said no – it was covered with green buds and full of promise.

The third son disagreed, he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.

The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfilment.

The man then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but one season in the tree’s life.
