Aboli ( Hindi )

Heart tells all ! 2019-Indian Idol- episode 01 - A woman enters the studio with a child in her arms. " This is not a child show " chimes the judge.  " This child is 16 years old and is in 12th standard " chides the woman back leaving all in the room speechless. Aboli Jarit , is in 12th standard but looks like a girl in the 3rd or 4th .....with both her kidneys damaged and no bladder , her growth has been restricted. But only her growth.. Not the attitude. She loves to sing , sing , and sing and is a die hard fan of one of the judges. With an infectious smile and aware of all her problems , she is determined to pull through and sing like any other contestant. She is determined , not to ever give up . ! I will keep smiling be positive and never give up. These are always my goals and my attitude. There are tough times. Today is hard , tomorrow will be worse but the day after tomorrow will be sunshine.. Never give up  and sit down and grieve. Don't pr...

Let's connect

In my deepest, darkest moments , what really got me through was a prayer called , "Help me".. Sometimes a prayer was "Thank you". Another important part in this relationship was communication . These combinations worked to make everything fall in place. we know that , since we cannot do good to all , we pay special attention to those who , by accidents of time , or place or circumstances are brought into a closer connection with us. I have really no interest in playing 'Perfect'. To me it's about being how good you are and how you connect. Sometimes the rewards of risks don't leave us wrecked . We can find our passion , purpose , courage and even connection .. The good things in our lives is a direct result of risks. Probably a Love at first sight .!!! A Love at first sight could be with a future soul mate , with  a friend , with  a companion , with a confederate , a carmaraderie..... Always be yourself , unless you can play a GOD. The...

Touch Me'

The touch happened , because you took my hand , you touched me , you made me felt wanted  , your hand told me ...I was alive ...! Thank You !!! Want to quote a quote : " Don't look back , you're not going that way " we undress before going to bathe. I think , we don't undress out of fear that our clothes will become wet . We undress , because we want to completely immerse ourselves in the feeling of the water and to emerge new . I'm different . Guess , I have to be a warrior to be that way. Yes , but I have had some success. I hope , I have touched the lives of some wonderful people , all by being what I see as myself but some other people see as different. These things bring you to reality as to how fragile you are , at the same moment you are doing something that nobody else is able to do . It wasn't books that inspired me to write . For me , inspiration was simple , immediate . I got it from life lived , things touched , from our undenia...

At peace...It is

I get the writer's block at times.. The words just wouldn't pop up in my mind. It becomes imperative for me to then scout the internet..I try my best but the block continues in my head.. Well, my self-made , self- proclaimed responsibility to inspire let's me write these blogs. Love to love it , hate to hate it. !! Acheiving peace is a continuous journey many of us are on. Though it might seem out of reach , putting our mindsets and our perspective , helps us become closer to accomplishment. It's been a long comeback . Things were pretty dark for me . I was angry with God for a long time because I was unhappy with me . But I have faith now. I have peace . In the end I got sick and tired of being sick and tired. The years have taught me that people are basically the same the world over..... Everybody wants the same things..- to be happy , to be healthy , to be secure. All , want friends , peace of mind , good family relationships and hope that tomorro...

That feeling......

It's been sometime since I caught up here..No, I was not busy. Incidently , I hurt myself in one of my eyes, and was sure ,  would not look proper to write something with one eye... I am not a soldier of Fortune... " It's often enough to be with someone. I don't need to touch them. Not even talk. A feeling passes between you both. You're not alone "  - Marilyn Monroe I am a bit too emotional . But emotions come and go and can't be controlled , so there's no reason to worry about them. It takes energy, generosity and discipline to be unfailingly light-hearted , yet everyone takes the happy person for granted . No one is careful of his feelings or tries to keep his spirits high. And thus that person usually gets no credit. Saddest thing about people  - most important thoughts and feelings often went unspoken and barely understood. We are stronger than we think , don't let life take the win so easily. We were meant to stand out. If you...

Bothered by Sorry

Thanks Praseeda for sharing an insight on the greatest word of the world - 'sorry' " Let us endeavor so to live, so that when we come to die , even the undertaker will be sorry "    - Mark Twain How to become a player : It is the time when there is no one there to feel sorry for you , or to cheer for you  , is when a player is made.. The time teacher taught me that apologizing does not always mean you're wrong and the other person is right. It just means you value your relationship more than your ego. I know how it may be comprehending. It sounds so simple and yet so complicated , to accept an apology. My wife and me , we've known each other for 20+ years . There are some days where we fight on trivial matters. But I did not start the fight . So why should I apologize ?. Gradually the fighting stopped , but the disapppointment hovered in our hearts. It seemed hard to bring the word "Sorry " on our tongues.  A small word which could be ...

That difference, we make ..

First thing first.. My apologies. I was down with the 'dengue ' and so took some time to write a new one. while recuperating from it , thought to write this one ..( meanwhile I broke a leg too ) I stumbled across a rather annoying post on Twitter the other day , detailing a certain user's distaste for inspirational thoughts. And ironically , it inspired me to write this blog. Always speaking to myself , I've been made to, what I'm today. It's like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head. Always all the time. That story makes you what you are. The most amazing thing for me is that I'm obsessed with giving the readers something they know , but can't express these small things which could have made that difference. What you do makes a difference , and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. Fate has given me an opportunity to make a difference. You know , when it's all over , it's not wh...
