The Little Things In Our Lives

Life is not about the final destination or the ultimate aim. Many of us keep asking one or more of these questions:
  • Why am I born?
  • What is the purpose of this whole life that I'm living?
  • Where am I traveling to?
  • What makes me?
Real happiness is only when you step out from inside your ego homes
When Arthur Conan Doyle said it has always been the little things that make the most of life, it certainly has to be it. You don't have the count of all the vital little stuff that you have been missing when you run the long road to fulfillment of your ambition. It is crucial time now to sit back, take a deep breath and ponder: What were the tiny little crevices you missed, that could lead you to paradise? The scenario is one of a bunch of messed up mortals locked inside a dungeon, sheepishly grinning at each others woebegone faces, for being ignorant of the narrow fissures on the walls that would open out into freedom. The issue is that all of us are so much more absorbed into our own little black holes that we fall short of observing the slots that open into larger space.
Children learn by exploring - education through entertainment

Blood, sweat and tears are not always what it takes to succeed. Chances lie concealed in every footstep. Take off your shoes. Feel the texture of the ground you take strides on. Take eyes off your smartphone and look ahead. Turn your head and feel the wind blowing across your face. Look far and wide. There are trees, clouds, green pastures, birds and butterflies. They too are on a journey. Are they headed for a different destination? Follow them to find out. Live with the animals. To realize that they too have a brain to control their limbs, fur to protect and teeth to chew would be nothing short of a remarkable discovery.

It is these very little things that makes all the big difference. Passion is worthless without compassion.There are sounds in your silence and lights in your darkness. Nature is a gigantic treasure house to explore and discover. If you want to seek real happiness, identify yourself as a natural being. Happiness is all around you; you cannot find it unless you step out from within your ego homes and venture out in the wild with that toddler's sparkle in your eyes. Explore. Surprises are everywhere.

    I liked these sentences a lot..

    1. it has always been the little things that make the most of life, it certainly has to be it

    2. Happiness is all around you; you cannot find it unless you step out from within your ego homes

    3. Take eyes off your smartphone and look ahead. Turn your head and feel the wind blowing across your face.

    4. Blood, sweat and tears are not always what it takes to succeed. Chances lie concealed in every footstep.

    These are indeed the actual ways to gain real happiness, peace and hence, health.

    Nice article. Thank you for sharing :)

Add Life To Years

Melting clock: Live life beyond time It just takes few seconds to get to the finishing line; few minutes to call it a day at work and recline; Few hours to meet that special someone; few days to get your salary for the long weekend's fun; Few months to get your valuable educational degree; Few years for the prisoner to be set free. Less than a second is all it takes for the heartbeat that keeps you alive Few seconds is all it takes to breathe in oxygen and survive. Decisions are made in no longer than a second Accidents do kill, when no harm you would intend Seconds spent in sorrow are always too long Only time can filter the right from wrong Stay calm and never lose your facial charm Forgive, for revenge is always double the harm A second for the baby to get ex-utero And precious years of learning to talk and draw And a little more years to eat, play and grow Life's, then on, a short one-man show So liv...

The Ground Where Everybody Wins

Jay was now a changed man, or so he assumed. The workshop on leadership skills training had began to cast its effect on his personality. He could now sense within himself, a feeling of renewed vigor and enthusiasm to work on a new research project. He always knew that he was a highly reliable team worker. The interest he nurtured in research could now help him redistribute his passion in taking the less-traveled roads, backed with the realization that when the techniques are familiar, one must venture into new areas. For the same reason, his project head sensed that with better team leader skills, Jay would certainly strike gold. Jay, however, felt that his thirst for confidence in taking head on, the new challenge of leading a research team, was far from being quenched. He lived in constant fear that, if he could not prevent the misunderstandings that inadvertently creep in among his colleagues from gaining more frequency, they would take things to the next level of professional ven...

Tell Me You Are Healthy

The World Health Organization gave a beautiful definition to the perpetual enigma that we call 'health'. This definition is like a suit that covers almost all parts from head to toe, but is the body really in there? The more I learn from the books on medicine and sociology, the more elusive it seems to define health. Let me put before you the international definition from the WHO, the people we consider are the ultimate authority over these aspects as they even guide countries to promote and protect the health of their citizens. They say, 'Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.' There is nothing more to ask from God. Infinite thanks for keeping us alive and disease-free. More than a thousand discussions have been held to refine and redefine health, and well-being in the course of it. Thank God for disease has a definition. Diseases fall under three groups: the ones that come and go...
