Going for the Good

I will be away for 16 days from now. I would like to spend my time in re-organising my self. I would not carry any burdensome baggage from the past. And I would move on. I have a long way to go. As I have been fighting with my fate and this fight does not seem to be ending anytime soon. I believe in myself and know for certain that my world is far better than what it seems at times. I have got the ability to think positive and understand things better. I feel fortunate that I hardly make wrong decisions. I need to build a new confidence in me and certainly have to start taking life more seriously. I am a bit carefree girl. I hardly take things seriously and do something meaningful. But if I do not cure my ways then I will lag behind. I have to match the pace of my efforts with the time. In the next few days, I just want to forget everything but the real goal of my life. I do not want to get married and settle down just for the sake of it. I want to live a meaningful life. And of course, I want more freedom. Freedom lets a person be her self. I am yearning for a “safe freedom”. I have many things to do. And I want to judge how far I would reach. I have to go now. I will be back. Hopefully, with loads of happiness and enthusiasm next time, as that’s what I am known for.

Control yourself

Sometimes even, I do not understand my mood swings. At this moment, I am full of excitement, joy and happiness and the next, I am sad, melancholic, and downhearted. I find this crazy. I find this out of my head. I just can not understand why I am so moved by my emotions. I am not that emotional type or at least I try not to be one (ehh God). Well my friends say, if I am in a good mood then I make the world more beautiful for everybody around. And if I am in a bad mood then, hell, I make the life hell for everybody around. But I do not like this. I want to keep control over my emotions. What would be the best way? Yoga? Meditation? Or some Dance / Music classes? May be I can just talk with my friends and feel better. But how can I find one idle friend to hear all my prattle. No no. I can’t do that with my friends. I should give them comfort and care rather than getting on their nerves ;). Then what else, may be I can just write down my thoughts here and feel better? Well, don’t know what would work best for my weird mood swings. But I got to keep control over my emotional, sensitive self. Let’s see to what extent I’ll get success.

Never Be an Emotional Fool

I have been an emotional fool from the very beginning of my life. My kind of people are difficult to deal with sometimes. And they even do not know which way to go as they are so much engaged with their own thoughts that they can not see through reality. It becomes difficult to understand the very intrigue nature of human beings. And my kind of people make it even worse. But the one thing, which I have decided today, is that I will never become an emotional fool. Meaning thereby I will always put my logical and intellectual side first and lead my life accordingly. It is not bad to be emotional sometimes. But it is always better to keep a check over the emotions, so that we can see through reality as clear as day. And that way we can always be safe from being an emotional fool. I had to make a choice and I have made it. Never Be an Emotional Fool.

Learn to give, not to expect

I want to learn to give and not to expect. Our expectations are the reasons of our miseries. Once learnt this unique way of living, can actually change our lives. Every time we meet someone, we develop certain expectations from them. We expect always high of our children, friends, peers and who not. We expect that life should give us more than we deserve. Why don’t we look at the other side of the coin. What are we doing to them? Are we good in giving? Are we coming up to their expectations? Expectations. High and high expectations. We never look at our own self that what are we giving to life? I want to learn to give and not to expect back anything. That’s the key to live a meaningful fulfilling congenial life. When we give a little peace of joy to someone, we feel blissful too! And when we only expect the same joy coming from someone else then, it becomes subjective. This is a tough lesson but by sheer determination, one can apply this in his life. Will I be able to succeed? Can’t say. I try not to expect the best out of things happening around. But I do prepare myself for the worst. The mantra was in my head was, “Expect the best, but Be prepared for the worst”. But how can one get prepared for the worst when he is expecting something best to happen? So either one should expect the worst and prepare for the same or vice versa. If we expect the worst then actually we are nurturing a Negative attitude within ourselves. And if we expect the Best then we find it difficult to prepare ourselves for the Worst. So what’s the solution? Well to my mind, I feel the better is “Not to expect”. But always be prepared to take on challenges life keeps throwing on us. Dream high but do not attach high expectation with them. Think positive but do not attach expectations with it. Do anything on earth but Do not attach Expectations with anything. Well that’s what I am feeling right now. Who knows what new lessons I learn tomorrow. One thing I would like to add here is, though we try to learn some simple rules to live better, but the fact is that we hardly can apply any hard and fast rules to ourselves. Human life is volatile, unpredictable, and full of surprises in every moment. So take every day as it comes. Okay now, so today I want to learn ‘To give & not to expect”!

A new way to look at life !

A distracted mind. A lazy mood swing. Procrastination. Uff. Enough is enough now. Let me look at my life from a different perspective now. Let me get a lil mature now. No more baby innocence! Learn some maturity and get serious about life. Time is running ahead of me. And I do not know how to catch up with it. A bit slow but a steady endurance will surely pay one day. Oh let me judge how good I am in keeping a check on my own self, or keeping myself within the boundary, which calls for discipline and dedication. We tend to give in to our sinful urges most of the time. But let me exercise this new control over myself. Again there is no harm in experiment. And my mind is really good at that! I remember one incident, when my computer teacher cited an example of a boy, who had dedicated himself completely for his career. What I still remember is one line out of that chap’s very inspirational story is “He forgot the world and worked hard to achieve his goals”. I find this line very encouraging and a guiding force. Well, I do not really know that by forgetting the world would guarantee the success. But one thing is certainly guaranteed, that one does his best to make it. The outcome may turn out to be anything, but the satisfaction of doing our best makes us a winner in any case! So why not I exercise the same. Though it is always easy said than done, but at least I should give it a try. What say?

Me or my Life?

I want to move beyond ups and downs of life. The life like a live wire will continue to push me up and down, but somehow, by virtue of my will power I want to move out of its traps. Beyond joys and melancholy. Beyond its extreme circumstances. Let’s see how far I shall succeed. It’s not easy. Really it’s not easy. I am a rather soft soul. Can hardly bear the rough side of life. But I’ll try to be neutral towards life. And will always be looking at the brighter side of life. Oh rather I should say that I’ll be partial towards life and keep looking at the brighter side of it. Because life is precious. And I do not want to waste my life in crying over things. Ha life is much more precious than wasting it over such things. I will enjoy my life and every moment of life. Hmm it’s my challenge to my life! I’ll love to see who wins, me or my life. Cheers !

A Reason for Celebration – ‘The Moments of Life’

Okay we all know life is ‘One time opportunity’. Time once gone will never come back. Then why do we spend the precious moments of life in grudging over things on which we hardly have any control. Why do we seek reasons or excuses to celebrate a moment, a day or for that matter a specific occasion? This life is a precious gift given to us by the Almighty God. And we should make most out of it. Well according to me, we must celebrate Each and Every Moment of life. Instead of looking for an excuse to celebrate, we should make that very moment itself a “Reason” or an “Excuse” to celebrate. If we have been given this very moment, then it has to be appreciated and we must make the most out of it. Now the question is ‘How?’ We human beings are not standardized. We have our own moments of likes and dislikes, happiness and sadness, dreams and hopes, inspirations and expectations. And we have our own unique way to celebrate our own precious moments of life. Each and Every moment is precious as it is unrecoverable. Once gone it will never come again. And it’s up to us to decide how we want to spend our life, our own precious moments of life. Every one has ‘Problems’ and ‘Pleasures’ in one’s life. Now what makes us unique from others is our own decision to move towards ‘Problems’ or ‘Pleasures’. So, In spite of tons of problems and tensions in my life too, I have chosen to celebrate each and every Moment of my life. I will move towards “Pleasures’ to make the life more meaningful and beautiful for everyone around. What ‘P’ have you chosen, “Pleasure’ or ‘Problem”?

Hey come on tell me right away.
