Take a plunge into the brighter side of this new year

I resolve to be the silver lining in someone’s cloud

Shrug off all the grudges to foray into the world of peace

Let my wisdom guide me through the path of darkness

Take a dive into the habit of optimism to dispel all fears holding me back

Refrain my heart and mind from overindulgence in the immaterial world

Keep good health and sanity my biggest priority

Make endurance and resilience my only key to success

Happiness and love always

I’m not here to impress everyone

I may not count myself in the bracket of those out of the world people who proudly call themselves super perfectionist and superficially complete in all respect but at least I am happy from within I did my best to complete the task. Yes I do cry publicly at times have broken down many a times to see my loved ones in pain but at least I am not a hypocrite like you who would be shedding crocodile tears for people in suffering and mocking them behind their back.

Yes I may have fumbled to speak my lines on the stage but I have the courage to speak my mind when my time comes .

Yes I may have fallen behind in the race may have failed to win any accolades but I always have the strength to walk the miles and stand by for what I believe in.

I have just got nothing to brag about my academic achievements my numerical aptitude test scores were abysmally low and teachers often labeled me as a dimwit but my wisdom always taught me there is no end to learning in life and it always teaches you something new so I am not ashamed to call myself learner at every stage of my life.

I may not be born with complementary features like you and people often say I look ordinary but I am still proud of what I am blessed with the trait of loyalty and honesty and I don’t have to use layers of facade to hide my true feelings.

Be what you are and embrace yourself unconditionally with what traits you are born with because you are unique in your self and no-one can replace you.

All he deserves is your unconditional acceptance

Every child is a gift of God that needs to be very much respected and nurtured irrespective of what good or bad points he has. But the picture that strikes us is far away from the reality once the kid is born into our family we claim to have right upon him as though he is our personal property and we own it to the best of our interest.

The new age parents fiercely get into the race of grooming their child as soon as he enters the toddler age. They desperately look forward to creating intellectually stimulating environment for their child by introducing him to the new concepts of learning without leaving any stones unturned in transforming their children into child prodigy who can one day deliever phenomenal performance in any sphere he undertakes.

Without even realizing what the real potential of the kid is they throw him into the labyrinth of competition where his strengths are pitted against others. The poor child is forced to get enrolled in multiple activities and classes just to prove his worth in front of others and make his obsessed with success parents proud.

is it not good enough to let the child alone and be what they want to be. Let your child dwell in the world full of fantasy and imagination. This is the only way his creativity can bloom to the fullest and stop making him a part of this rat race which is a brutal and harsh realities of the time.

Don’t let his self esteem get ruined in the long run even at times when he fails to achieve his goals.

Encourage him to embrace his failures because these are going to be the learning moments for him.

Be there with him when he needs you because you are the biggest support system around and he will look upto you as a role model.

Teach him the meaning of rejoicing the lessons of learning in life it is not always about winning it is more about adding new experiences to life.

Acceptance and acknowledgement of the child can empower him from within and can enable him grow into a more responsible beings.

Memories untold

Some crisp warm memories

Still laying down like

a petal of rose on my soul

have been yearning every

now and then to find its way

Out through my laughter and tears

ready to sweep me by the deluge

Of thoughts some clinging to my

Soul filling my heart with ecstasy

some untold moments leaving

traces in my eyes hapless me

wondering if I could relive those

moments once again but often

forget I have been standing on the

desert of time where moments

get blown away with every blink

We as a good and responsible parents keep on preaching our younger lot about the harmful effects of staying glued to the screen all the time but have we really studied and observed our very own obsession or to put it in a more succinct way addiction to the gadgets around us.

Imperfections are the essence of life

Life is all about living with blemishes

Some extra dose of motivation

No worries they will one day

turn to be the blessings

What weighs you down can

bring out the best in you

Live with little bit of imperfections

They will always keep you grounded

Learn to respond to situations rather

than reacting to it

Wisdom is the biggest virtue which

never lets modesty turn into

arrogance

Smile makes you invincible

Smile sitting pretty on your face speaks volumes to the outer World. Many of us living in the real world of bewilderment and mechanical lifestyle have failed to count how many times in a day do we smile. Do we smile just to impress others or is there any thing magical that happens to us to keep ourselves in perfect sync with our inner harmony.

Don’t forget to smile when you step out to greet the world. Smile doesn’t always mean you are happy all the time all it says is that you are mentally and emotionally strong enough to take anything in your stride. The picture perfect story seems like a fairy tale for many of us but with the right kind of attitude you can make your life look picture perfect anytime. So bring on the smile and brighten up someone’s day. 😊😊

Five simple ways to rev up your life

Simplicity never goes out of fashion and complexities can never bring you mental peace. Simplify your life as much as possible it may sound difficult but is not impossible.

Stay true to yourself and to others. Honesty is the biggest virtue possessed by only few be one of them.

Forgive and forget that should be the prime philosophy of one’s life. Learn to move on in life and let go all the misgivings. Stop carrying the extra burden of grudges on your mind make peace a way of life.

Remember the only constant thing on this planet is the never ending inconsistency so trust in the power of change. Nothing will stay forever here everything that comes with you is perishable so get ready to embrace the changes in life.

Always smile no matter what circumstances you are in because it will cost you nothing and make an effort to spread positivity and hope around you. Words and deeds of kindness will never let you down in the long run so stay kind to yourself and others unconditionally because you never know what goes behind the picture.

Lastly keep that innocent child alive and spirited in you. Don’t ever let that child grow up inside of you because it is only this child which eventually will bounce you back with a new vigour and enthusiasm.

Happy Children’s Day

Stay young and vivacious forever

You are my angel

This was perhaps one of the most trying moments he had ever confronted in his life. It seemed more like a battle he was fighting not with the outside world but within himself to free his mind of all the toxins infesting him with a thought of haplessnes and robbing him of worthy instincts.

How will he be able to tell his family that he has been a victim of downsizing in his company. The scariest thought had been looming larger than its propensity ever since he came to know there was a merger taking place and the company was gradually drifting towards recession.

All his dreams shattered into pieces in one single blow. Life had come to a state of stagnation where nothing seemed to be moving forward.

“Life never plays fair games with anyone and each one of us has to go through our own share of ups and downs and God puts you to test for some unknown mysterious reasons which are blessings in disguised form”his mothers words echoed in his heart as he drove down to his house. She opened the door with a great smile on her face and gave him a warm hug.

With sunken face frozen spirit and shaky voice he broke the news and wondered how deeply hurt his mother would be.

She didn’t budge for a while and he could clearly see two tiny tears sitting at the edges of her eyes ready to fall free on her wrinkled face but she regained her firm demeanor and grit attitude she was always known for and came out the thundering words get up and dress up bring out the fighter in you don’t give up tears are not for you and you will always be my angel boy.

I still need you maa

His eyes bore the traces of dismal and seemed like someone had broken him from inside. Never in all these years of carefree and spirited life had he felt a sudden pain piercing down in his heart of losing someone so close to his heart.

with trembling hands and staggering feet he nervously walked towards the doctor’s cabin as he was walking all the beautiful moments and vibrant memories of his mother were vividly flashing before his eyes.

How could he forget those soothing words uttered by his doting mother when he had first stepped out to attend his kindergarten school how anxious his mom looked as if it was her first day at school “baby you are my brave child don’t worry I will always be around and will come over at your slightest call”He could still recollect how hard she was trying to look controlled.

His fussy eating habits was a proverbial issue in the entire household this would not stop her from indulging into new recipes despite all the frustration he created for her.

She would do anything impossible to keep all the members happy and content in the family and never brought to surface her own miseries.

He remembered how once she was taken ill he didn’t budge from her bedside and she kept on murmuring in drowsy state “baby stop behaving like a kid now grow up and you are an independent boy now I’m sure when I am gone you can take care of yourself “how much he had cried that day.

Now ten years down the line he could still feel that same pain in his heart. As he sank down in the chair doctor handed over him his mother’s reports which were heart tearing for him to learn.

With heavy heart he walked through the critical unit to see his mom. The frail body of hers was making his soul even more feeble. He held his moms hand softly for the last time and whispered in her ears “mumma I will always love you and I will always need you no matter what age I am in”.
