Wealthy is a person who.......

Just browsing through and I found this image in front of eyes and it made me stop scrolling down the page.

In the materialistic life of today, we all think that money can buy anything and everything but of course this is not true. Money is just a part of wealth but never the way to measure it. It is something that can make us buy and possess things of comfort and joy but never the things that create joy. Real joy and happiness comes from things that make our heart smile and not just our lips. The smile that is smiled with the heart is the one that is adored by all.

Owning and possessing things that cannot be bought by money is the real source of joy and thus shows the real wealth of a person

After all, its the people who gather around your coffin that matters and not the cost of the coffin.

VALENTINE MANIA...!!!

Its 14th February, Its Valentine's Day, Its the day of love-birds, its a day to cherish and feel love, a day which is celebrated as a festival by all the lovers. 

After a whole week of enthusiasm and valentine mania in people, today is the day when we can see lovers making vows and showing their love. Across the world, people in love have a great zeal about this one day of love. But there are people who consider all this a perfect crap. 

I personally have seen people who are against this season of love and have various reasons to hate it. Some say this this is wastage of time. Some may say this is one of the most ridiculous idea and i have even seen people saying that we don't need a single day to celebrate love, for us each day is valentine day and we celebrate love each day. This is when i feel like saying "Come on guys, Give me a break". All these things do not convince me at all. Can someone celebrate love in such a way for each day of the year. Yes, you can love somebody for each day of the year and even for each day of your life but is it possible to the same for each day with your loved one. Is it really possible to avoid the small bickerings and arguments that any couple may have. Is it feasible to gift your lover with gifts each day? :P Well, everyone knows the real answer to these questions. 

If you really love someone then certainly you do need to show it too. Surely, Valentine's Week gives a great chance to people to show their love and live in that ambience. In today's busy lives, people do not have time for their self let alone their partners. In any relation time indeed has a great role to play and i individually believe that showing love is a necessity in present scenario of living.

Mischievously, I feel like adding that this one week even allows the market to be wrapped in the color of love. Hearts, cupids, roses, chocolates, greetings and lots of other things can be seen everyone and they indeed give a feel to relish and you don't need to be in a relation to celebrate love so why criticize one of the purest feelings of people. Live it.

Finally, when its all about love and Valentine, then I would like to end it by quoting:

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”

Wishing All the readers A Very Happy Valentine's Day…!!!

Agony of Life...!!!

"Expectation is the root to all heartache…!! "

-William Shakespeare

Wonderfully quoted and so truly believed, this quote by William Shakespeare raises a sense of self question in me. It makes me think about the depth of life. It makes me think of my life.

Often we are in pain and curse ourself because we have been hurt by someone. But does someone really has the power to hurt us? No. Its us only who hurt our own self and then by some means blame others for being the cause for our pain and suffering.

I personally had many heartaches and the reason i felt it was because I expected from people. I believed that I will have my so-called close ones with me during my trauma times, they will support me and be by my side. Here is where the heartache begins. Just because of expectations. I expected things from people and it never seemed to have given the happiness i thought of, instead it left me with a feeling of insecurity and scars on my heart. The moment we count on something or somebody to be the source of our joy and happiness comes the time we allow intruders in our space. We realize and feel a discomfort and inconsistency. We ruin prospects of any upliftment and the journey of life becomes a stress.

Heartaches distress us and we feel a certain kind of resentment towards everyone and this bitterness gradually becomes a stain in our soul. This is very harmful indeed. So, why risk? and it is not a small risk. We expose ourself to the danger of repulsion and hard feelings towards the world.

So, the question that arises in my mind is Why Expect? Where does these expatiation arise from? 

The only valid answer coming to me is because we tend to the same things for others or believe that we will be doing it when the time comes. So, again the problem emerges from ourself only.

So, simply do things and acts of kindness without expecting the same in return as it will only lead to pain, suffering and wrath towards people.

“If you expect nothing from anybody, you’re never disappointed.”

Its Only about Realization...!!!

Often we come to realize that things are not coming in the way we want them to be and feel depressed at the thought of it. We always are in a state of mind where we wish our past to be different and always wish for some things to happen in future. But life is what we live now. Its far beyond the dilemma of past and future. Its all about just today. We need to accept the past and also embrace the future with whatever it brings on us. The person we are today is just because of what we have seen and gone through in the past. Things are never to make us suffer, instead they redirect us to something far better than we can even think of at that particular moment.

Its never the end but its always about the path and journey to reach that end that needs to be cherished and believe me when you do look at your past, you will surely realize that everything that happened was to redirect you to something better.
