Ocean of happiness

  Friend or Friendship word sounds so cool! Friends add an extra zing to our life. They are a bundle of laughter and joy. Post marriage, we lost in touch with our friends but due to technology, the years that widened the gap, served to bring us a little closer in some ways. Friendship in this digital age reduces its essence. I remember the days when one would write long letters and in turn waits eagerly for equally voluminous replies.  Today messages have become short and not clear which reflects  the nature of digital friendship. At school times, a tradition of tying a friendship band has its own charm. We equated it with the number of bands one had on his/her wrist, determines the amount of friends one had. To show others, we have an ample of friends sometimes we tend to tie band to our own wrist😃 One of my senior told me the significance of tying a band. She told me, when you tie a band just make a wish for your friend with full heart and in turn your friend should no...

Accept change for good! God created Man and provided him with the wealth. He realised there should be someone to take care of his things so that the things be in safe hands for future. That's why God created Woman. Man n woman both groom each other's personality and make themselves successful in every walks of life.  Life undergoes a complete change post marriage both for men and women. We as a women accept this change..new home, new members, new routine, loads of responsibilities, have to deal with new moods and attitudes. We become money savers too, a desirable quality. Do we realize the same for men?.. We cannot draw a line of comparison between two.. But the onus of this is far more on men, I suppose. Man has to share his room, his wardrobe with someone new. He has to part with a portion of his income, share his finances too, adjusting, keep the home running, fulfilling demands of every member take precedence. Men are more focused and balanced with rich emotional stability ...

 "  When spirits shine, Even foggy skies make pleasant light." People in our proximity..their mood and energy affects us. We may feel good, warm n energetic in some company but feel cold, blue n anxious around others. I was mesmerized by nature of one of my college friend. She remains positive, cheerful, bubbly and smile no matter what. I met her every year n in those years she had never let me known what she was going through...trouble -torture marriage, friction in relationships. One should not bottle up inside one's feelings. Showing emotions is not a sign of weakness. Rather being transparent brings closer to the one whom we are sharing with plus we feel lighter.  We human beings are full of emotions. Here also men are behind, emotions ruled my women alone, I wonder. Well, she tld me she slips into pessimism after her marriage. She thought to end her life one day. I asked her then, what stopped her. She said, the moment she thought to suicide, her son came near her n ...

  Assumptions are harmful We  meet  many people in our life. Some we admire & some admire us. I go to buy milk every morning and meet a poor lady who sometimes even come barefoot. But she always shares customary greetings with me and tells me she likes me as i come all the way walking and not on the vechile.  She used to give me hibiscus flowers as she has seen me plucking them somewhere.  One day I went to buy milk on my vechile.That day she asked me for a lift but I refused  as I was in a mad rush had to reach station plus my vechile run out of fuel. So I politely said 'No' to her and went away. I wanna help her but i hav to reach station. Sometimes it happens we want to help but we could not. Few days back when I returned I was dead sure she will not talk to me. But ,On the contrary she asked me how my trip was , with a smile on her face.I was quite overwhelmed by her polite gesture. And suddenly to my utmost surprise,  she gave me a handful of ...

  Some good deeds we might have done in our  past lives that in this birth we born as a Jain. Im lucky n blessed to be born in a religious jain family where every member whether my parents,uncles,aunts,bua,sisters,cousins all are endowed with religious Jain beliefs. So proud to be a Jain. It might be the year 1989 n one of the scariest serial I had seen in my childhood, aired on doordarshan. It was ' Kile ka Rahasya '. One episode was shown in a week. The terrifying dramatic music in the serial background chilled down my spine. Though I enjoyed everytime I watch it but deep down inside was fearful abt the outcome. Watching such a scary n thrill one , leads to troublesome sleep, unwanted thoughts n horrible dreams which had continued for many days. I complained n grumbled to my mother why these people made such horrifying serial and  hold them responsible for my anxiety.  I tried to palliate my nervousness.  My mother told me calmly whenever in ur life u face any...
