Its all about everything . . .

Love means not ever having to say you're sorry. -Erich Segal Sorry   can be both very easy and very difficult to say. I feel the difficulty or the ease you feel to say sorry is not linked to the incident nor is it related to whether it was your mistake or not. It solely depends on what you are as a person and the values you hold.   Sorry can be just a word, an expression, a savior and sometimes an emotion. It can play various roles and do many a wonderful things. It can mend an ailing heart, bring smile on a face with moist eyes,   make someone feel you understand. It can do so much good when told with a pure heart and intent. However it can do same amount of malicious things as well. It can harm someone beyond repair, make them too distant or even burn your bridges of a possible recovery. When you say sorry you conform to the person that you accept your fault, or you realize that your behavior was not correct. But then love comes in picture and as the quote says, sorry

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Leonardo da Vinci So what basically is sophistication, is it trying to be part of a group, or trying to not stand out in a crowd. Is the act of blending with societal norms and reforms a form of being sophisticated. If we sit and brain storm we may come out with many a definitions of what sophistication is. It can be different for different individuals and society. Sophistication cannot be globally the same, sophistication will always have a touch of culture. But at the same time there are few things that globally look stylish and never go out of fashion. The things that make you more you are the ones that set you apart. People can always copy your dress, your fashion or style statement but no one can even if they want to be ever be able to copy your Smile, no one can ape you when you are nothing but yourself. So I guess the best way to be the most sophisticated is to first be you, be the best version of yourself and sophistication w

Questions for God, I wondered. What could I possibly ask God there were two very probable answers, “everything” and “nothing”. I would want to ask so many things that the list could be ceaseless, everything around me would be a question for god, why did he do this? Why did he do that? What prompted him to make machineries within human body that work ceaselessly to just one day stop forever. Why could not everything last forever, why do things made by him perish with time, why does the nature made by him act against us in such strong ways? Why didn’t he give us any control over our feelings. Why does everything that starts has to have an end, and if it has to end why does he get us so attached to it. Why did he make us to have expectations when he knew the others he made would break them. These and   many more questions bombarded my head and after a while I was lost, I was in a blank. I stopped and took a deep breath and heaved a sigh of relief. The questions were not answer

She was flying, it was something nobody thought she could do. The energy in the wheels was not from the engine but from her aspiration to one day master the art of driving a four wheeler. She knew there were very few people with whom, she could share her happiness and amazement with. For most people it was a simple task of coordination between ABC of driving. But for her the ABC i.e., Accelerator, break, clutch were something that were at this point of time ruling her life. The accelerator had made her dream come to reality real quick, break had put halt to all nonsense that was going around her and clutch made her mind shift gears of productivity. She could feel the cool breeze playing with her hair. In her   head she was saying,” yes I did it” but the smile on her face said, “finally I did it”. She was enjoying it, it felt like freedom, liberation from her own fears. The feeling of accomplishment was very big, because there was nothing that she ever had so much difficulty lea

Patience is the companion of wisdom. - Saint Augustine If only it so easy for the wise to remain patient with the not so wise. I agree patience is the virtue of the wise, but also at the same time I feel patience must be respected and not tested. The time when you feel your patience is being tested, understand that someone is purposely trying to rub you on the wrong side. As the quote says that patience is the companion of wisdom, it means if someone is trying and taking undue advantage of you it is not wise to let them have it their way. So be alert, be responsive and be wise.

You learn as much from those who have failed as from those who have succeeded. – Michael Johnson          If this gets you thinking what can you learn from a person who failed, I would   I say -   a lot. Successful people have a lot of followers, also people always try to emulate success not trying or wanting to know the failures that went behind it. Success like perfection cannot be achieved in one go. So behind every success story are a lot of forgotten failures. Anyone who has the courage to continue despite of failures is the one who would one day be successful. There are basically two ways to learn something, do it, fail and learn from your own mistake or failure. But the trait that is followed by people who get early success is that they not only learn from their own failures, but they keenly follow others who are failing and learn from their mistakes and make sure to not do it themselves. So here we understand that the successful people that the world follows actual

An ideal wife is any woman who has an ideal husband. -Booth Tarkington So perfectly put. Rather than putting your energy in finding someone just perfect, try to be the perfect someone for somebody. Also as it is said people rarely follow advice but surely copy actions. So rather than giving advise on how to be perfect, practice perfection and soon you will have a lot of followers. Perfection can be as contagious as stupidity. Also it is very addictive. So just try to be a perfect someone before you start looking out for perfection in someone else! Please share further

The word hiccups brings a smile in my face. I know many of you must be thinking why such an irritating thing brings me a smile. What can I say, hiccups have become part of a very fond memory for me. It is something that only a fortunate few get to experience. And by fortunate few I mean we privileged Ladies. For me hiccups were my first connect with now my almost two year old daughter. Her hiccups while she was still not born, got me both worried and fascinated. We have seen many adults getting hiccups and the various tricks they try to get rid of them. But my poor still in-utero baby had nothing that she could do. And I like any other more than anxious mom, could keep counting them. The max that I could have counted was 300 at a stretch. We normally sip water to get rid of Hiccups, I couldn’t understand how someone floating completing in water, who could anytime gulp down any amount of water get so many and so frequent hiccups. When she was about to be born, the print med
