A Good Human Being...give it a thought

Do you know a really good human being? Well I am one. Sounds strange? Not to me. For me it's one of the best things that could have ever happened to me. Imagine a what a place the world will be where every single human being thinks, believes and acts as a really good human being. What difference it will make. Phenomenal. 

And to be good human being one does not need to do anything extraordinary, one has to just be. That's good enough. Find joy in life's little things. Appreciate people (it gets them going and willing to go the extra mile). Smile (it increases your face value). Wish (a simple good morning, good afternoon, good evening or good night makes a lot of difference or wish someone the joy of his /her life). Thank (it could be a taxi / rickshaw driver or someone who offered you a seat in bus). Help (it could be something as simple as passing a pen/pencil or even a paper clip). Say I Love You (if you are married nothing like it...or why only you better half, why not your Mom or Dad or Brother or Sister). Pray ( it just takes a few words and faith in God). See the beauty of life (when was the last time you saw a sunset? or a rose...and said it was beautiful). 

There are so many other such simple things in life which we can just do without really putting a great effort. Simple isn't it. But then someone said "It's simple to be happy, but very difficult to be simple"...may be it's not that difficult after all.

Day 9 - The Power of Understanding

The words “I understand” hold immense power. In the TV show Two and a Half Men , Charlie Harper often uses this phrase, sometimes with humorous intent. But beyond the humor, these two simple words—"I understand"—carry a depth and magic that is often overlooked. Understanding is the first step toward empathy. It reflects a willingness to connect with another person's experience, their emotions, and their perspective. Yet, to truly understand, we must pause and reflect on what we mean when we say it.  Do we really understand what the other person is going through?  Are we merely acknowledging their words, or are we trying to feel what they feel? True understanding isn’t about sympathy or offering solutions. It’s about resonance.  Do we truly feel the depth of someone’s anxiety or pain, or are we simply familiar with the emotion?  Does understanding require us to have lived through similar circumstances, or is it possible to grasp the weight of another’s experience even...

What's Next

Life can get pretty tough if you have not decided on what's next. Because each time you achieve or do something on the go, you have to keep thinking about what's next.  Spontaneity is good to an extent. It can get you to a particular point, but then after you have to be sure about which way are you going to go or what you are going to do next.  There will come a time when you will have to sit down, reflect, and ask some tough questions to yourself. Do some soul searching in your quest to find out what is next.  Because you can't be aimlessly be shooting out in the dark and hoping to hit the target. Knowing where, what, why, and how you are going to aim for the target drastically improves and enhances your chances of hitting the target.  So the next time you think about what's next, think of it as a series of goals and objectives to help you achieve the big picture. Preparation combined with a dash of spontaneity takes what's next to the next level.

Not Everything Happens For A Reason

Not everything happens for a reason. Sometimes things just happen. That's it. There is nothing one can do about it. But we go looking for reasons. That is what we have been told for ages - Everything happens for a reason.  And we have all kinds of reasons. Fate, destiny,  divine plan, higher purpose, God's plan, for something better, or it was meant to happen. You keep getting some or the other inexplicable reasons which rarely makes any sense. Yet we continue to look for answers because we have been always made to believe everything happens for a reason. Just because something does not work out - it could be a business, marriage, education, divorce, death of a loved one, broken dreams - does not mean there have to be reasons for it. In fact, there are none. These reasons we seek become an escape route. We start using them to rationalize failure and loss. We have grown accustomed to becoming strong believers of cause and effect. So much so that it starts becoming a crutch we w...
