Wanna Play a Weird Word Game?

Simple!! Just choose important words and match associations.. Por ejemplo:

Happiness – Breeze!! Peace – Rhythm workout!!

Sad – Silence!!

friends – Cheer, travel- excitement, must have – vacation, job- ever changing,

Money – ample, food- necessity, music – rhythm,  best time- evenings, best day – holiday, matters most- family

hobby – change, routine – throw it away, …..

You can choose words like I chose & then think of other words that you associate with them..

A gr8 introspection exercise that brings a smile –

Ain’t it not silly??

Ain’t it not silly? The value of peaceful – sleepfull nights are not known to any

Ain’t it not fair? The value of having a family, seldom found….so rare

Ain’t it not madness? The value of work is felt only by the idle and the jobless

Ain’t it not there? The value of money, time, air????????

All of us have so many beautiful things in our life. A family, a place to live which we call home, something that earns us resources – a job, and so many loving people around whom we call friends…

Still we have something that makes us feel our life is incomplete!!! Either its the love of a lost one, or some money lost, some time lost, some effort lost at work, a promotion lost, whatever……….may be health lost or youth lost..

If we all knew today is the only day we have, how differently would we appreciate all the stuff in our life?

What’s exciting you- TODAY?

Anything that you would like to share with the rest of the world- that’s keeping you hooked on to high energy???

Never thought about it -right? No worries! Today is a good day to start peeping inside ourselves & getting to know better. With our loved ones, we go out of the way to observe and make a note of stuff that keeps them happy. We know what bothers them, what angers them & most definitely what peps them up!!

So what about you? Are you waiting for your spouse/ parents / gf/ bf/ bff/maid/teacher…. to make a note of these things??

Come on!! Time to catch up! Share it here, and you’ll be surprised! You will smile deep within and the smile will reach out right into your eyes!!

What is special about today, that’s exciting you no end? its ok if its not so crazily exciting..

The awaited ‘Promotion’= a distant dream? Are you sure you really want it???

There can be such a big world inside of us & we may be completely unaware of it!!
No wonder why Coaches are such a necessity today

Everyone of us, may think we know everything about our life but the truth is far off! We may think we want that promotion but may be the thought of that extra responsibility or spending more time at work is pulling us away..

Do we know for ourselves, what is it that we exactly want? Do we really want that promotion?

What is it about your work that attracts you to it?

~ The opportunity to help others
~ Opportunity to specialise in your field
~ The possibility of making relationships beautiful for you and others around you
~ Growth aspects /learning and growth opportunities
~ Supporting others in creating & overcoming challenges to lead a more fulfilling n challenging life
~ Making money for yourself and others..

The list could be long.. Could it be that your career is just a milestone in your life n not the entire journey?
Where as many of our peers here are looking at stability, there could be many who want something more..

May be we already have what we want! Yet we look at those who have stability and wonder if something’s wrong with us?

Money, status, stability, property could be must have’s for some people! For some others the thrill of moving, travelling, learning, constantly changing could be a must have!!

There’s nothing wrong with changing careers or changing places or making moves constantly!! Making sure, your family (and most importantly your spouse) understands your need for change – it definitely is a ‘must do’

Knowing what one wants – clearly & then going a step forward to communicating the same with important people in your life is very important for peace and happiness to prevail in your home

Can you pause for a minute & think for yourself, where are you fitting into this right now?
And please take few more minutes to share with us your story!!

Love

Are you swiping enough, your ‘Happiness Credit Card’?

A card from which you can benefit out of others’ happiness before it becomes yours?

‘Happiness’ can be such a lonely idea unless we share the emotion with others!! And when we share it, the belief is that it belongs to us?

Can we reverse this idea? What if we sought happiness in that of others? And allow their happiness to bring in joy into our lives??

Just today I heard about one of my school friends getting married And simply listening to her and sharing her joy kinda magnified it for me!!! I was high with this news & realised how we flow so happily in the happiness of others….It comes naturally to each one of us..

PROVIDED we are swiping – our Happiness Credit Card!!!

I swiped mine few hours back & am amazed the joy lasts this long n maybe longer!!!!
When did you swipe this card last?

Can the heaviness inside a grieving heart ever be healed?

Just 2 days back, I read a book I’ve been awaiting to read!

Wasn’t happy reading it, cuz the story wound up in a very unpleasant manner, and the protagonist had to deal with separation! A beautiful MFOE (Made 4 each other) couple that awaits a life of togetherness in peace has to face an unexpected twist in their life with one of them dying a very horrendous death!!

The protagonist obviously is completely shaken and is unable to deal with this unexpected outcome. All the principles on which his life was based on, are gone for a toss & all that he can see in front of himself is vengeance. Even after taking revenge, his heart still feels so heavy, so incomplete!

Reading this story left me so disturbed & depressed!! I know well that this was a story. Yet, I was disturbed..

I know there are many such people around me who face this grief of having to part with their loved one. Some have had to part with their son, or daughter ,some with their mother or father, some with their life partner..

Feeling empathy in such cases is practically impossible & I can’t imagine being in the protagonist’s shoes! The pain and grief seems un-recoverable..

The cycle of birth and death is something we can’t fight. We know that a day will come when we have to bid goodbye to every thing around us and everyone around too. Yet, we are in denial or what?

Knowing that all that we earn in life- the happiness, the prosperity, the health ,the beauty, the relationships- are all going to go away, we still find ourselves so deeply attached to our life, and more so attached to our expectations out of life.

The heart grieves at any loss- be it loss of property, loss of money, loss of status, loss of stability, loss of beauty, loss of youth, loss of abilities and last but not the least, loss of a loved one..

How can the grieving heart then, be healed? How can the heaviness turn into lightness? How can the void be filled with abundance? How can the loss be a lesson to be learned?

How???

The story did make me feel low yet allowed me to express gratitude for all the beautiful aspects that this life has offered me and is continuing to do so..

Signing off with a hope that every grieving heart opens up to the healing that’s awaiting them!

How can there be Peace in the world when there’s war-right within?

Each one of us is going through so much turmoil! For some, life has everything nice that they need yet there’s no peace! For some life is a struggle! For some life is about everything less!

With such emotions of lack, less, conflict, unrest- can we really dream of living in a peaceful world? A world, where we need not read newspapers, switch on to our tv sets to know more about the mis-happenings..

Rather a world where every person can feel warmth in one’s heart while reaching out to another person living in some other country! With absolutely no iota of doubt, that the other person could be of any harm???

Can this be a reality of our world?

How can it be, when leave aside a national of another country, people feel insecurities in their own relationships of love, relations of kith n kin?? Trusting one’s own blood is a big question now a days, and am I crazy to think the whole world can live in Peace???

YES!!! I am crazy!! I believe in a world of peace! One peaceful home at a time & no sooner is it gonna be a beautiful huge home- a beautiful planet where each feels safe and each feels loved

Charity begins at home So my heartfelt request to each beautiful person in this beautiful world- Please feel peace inside.. cuz we truly deserve it and we can’t be anything else but peace..

With peace n love:)
