  • The Alphabets of Life - Ego
    29 November 2011

    EGO :

    EGO  is  the  biggest   and  single  most  destroyer  of  relationships . See  any  relationship  on the  rocks  ,  behind  it  would  be  EGO . Ego  does  not  let  you  forgive ,  it  does  not  let  you  forget  and  hence  it  does  not  let  you  be  free . When  in  EGO  you  consider  your  intelligence   to  be  higher than  your  creator  and  that  of  the  universe . You  are  simply  Edging God  Out .The  only  antidote  for  EGO is  compassion , because  when  you  have  compassion  you  see  every  one  as  same .

    Ego  kills  love  because  your  need  to  be  right  is  more than your  need to accept  some one  as  he  or  she is . I  used  to  believe  that I  was less on  Ego – but I  was  wrong – I  only  thought about  my  needs  my  development – That is  also Ego – the need to be  different , the need to be liked

  • Be Thankful
    25 November 2011

    Dear all,

    God / Universe  always  fulfills  your  dreams , but  not  in the  way  you  want  it  ,  but  in the  way  that  he  thinks  is  the  best  for  you . I  wanted  to  do  my  MBA  from a  premier  institute but  in spite  of  huge  effort  could  not  make  it  , yet  I  got the  same  job  that  I  would  have  got  if  I  had  passed  out  from  there and  14  years  later  I  am  doing  my second PG from  another  premier  institute  and  that  too  in the  subject  of  my  Choice  - Human  resources .

    But  a  lot  of  times  we  miss  God’s  Blessings  because  they  are  not  packaged as we  expected – so be  thankful for everything  you  are  going through it is the  part of the divine plan

     

    The  Story :

    A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

    As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.

    Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business.

    He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart.

    He began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible.

    It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation and the words...PAID IN FULL.

    How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?

    On Children
     Kahlil Gibran
    Your children are not your children.
    They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
    They come through you but not from you,
    And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
    You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
    For they have their own thoughts.
    You may house their bodies but not their souls,
    For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
    which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
    You may strive to be like them,
    but seek not to make them like you.
    For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
    You are the bows from which your children
    as living arrows are sent forth.
    The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
    and He bends you with His might
    that His arrows may go swift and far.
    Let our bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
    For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
    so He loves also the bow that is stable.

  • Purpose of Relationships
    16 October 2011
    The purpose of a relationship is not to have  someone who might  complete  you
    , but to  have  someone with whom u might share your incompleteness .

  • Alphabets of Life : Dreams
    16 October 2011
    DREAMS 
     
    There  is  no  human  being  who  does  not  have  dreams  ,  for  herself , for  her  kids  , family ,  life , Career . Yet  less  than  1% dreams  come  true because  they  are not  backed  up  by 
     
    Discipline : 
     If dreams  are  the  flight of  imagination  ,  Discipline is  the  long  walk  of execution . Nelson Mandela  walked  it  for  Freeing  South  Africa  , Steve Jobs  Walked  and  fell  a  lot  of  times  before  he  created  the Magic of Ipod and  moved  on
     
    Real Belief : 
    Although we want our dreams to come  true  , they  are  not  backed  up  by  real  belief . Real  belief means  the  Belief  of Mahatma  Gandhi  that  India would  be  a  free nation .
     
     
    Enthusiasm : 
    Enthusiasm  for  dreams  is  like  what  oxygen  is  for Fire  .  Fire  wont  last  without  oxygen .We  continuosly  need  enthusiasm to  persevere  and  win
     
    Intention & Action :
     
    Last of  all your intention  should  be  pure  not  to  hurt  anyone  and you  should  take  some  action  every  day .
     
    Wishing  that  all your  dreams  come  true , My  dream  is  a  beach  facing happiness  school  campus  in  Goa – So it is Now

  • Women
    12 October 2011
    One Flaw In Women
     
    (you will see what it is in the end)
     
    Women have strengths that amaze men.
     
    They bear hardships and they carry burdens,
     
    But they hold happiness, love and joy.
     
    They smile when they want to scream.
     
    They sing when they want to cry.
     
    They cry when they are happy
     
    And laugh when they are nervous.
     
    They fight for what they believe in.
     
    They stand up to injustice.
     
    They don't take 'no' for an answer
     
    When they believe there is a better solution.
     
    They go without so their family can have.
     
    They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
     
    They love unconditionally.
     
    They cry when their children excel
     
    And cheer when their friends get awards.
     
    They are happy when they hear about
     
    A birth or a wedding.
     
    Their hearts break when a friend dies.
     
    They grieve at the loss of a family member,
     
    Yet they are strong when they
     
    Think there is no strength left.
     
    They know that a hug and a kiss
     
    Can heal a broken heart.
     
    Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors.
     
    They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you
     
    To show how much they care about you.
     
    The heart of a woman is what makes the world keep turning.
     
    They bring joy, hope and love.
     
    They have the compassion and ideas.
     
    They give moral support to their
     
    Family and friends.
     
    Women have vital things to say
     
    And everything to give.
     
    HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN,
     
    IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.

  • Living a life that matters - Loving yourself
    12 October 2011
     
          You  can  live  a  fulfilling  life  only  when  you  love  yourself  ,  which  will  happen  when  you  accept  yourself  100% as  a  perfect  creation – when  this  happens  you  start  accepting  others  which  leads  to  loving  them  for  what  they  are  and  not  what  you  want  them  to  be. Then  we  can  have  honest  conversations and honest  relationships  not  based on fear .
