Be Still

As per psychiatrists , 80% of our thoughts are about the past and 15% of our thoughts are about the future . Just 5% of our thoughts are in the present moment .So its very important to be in the present not in the past or future . If we are in the present moment , we are more creative and intuitive .
We don't have to keep asking around everyone for solutions , we ourselves can find the solutions   if we are in the present moment and focused .

There is no point worrying about the future . If you live in the present and give your 100% , future will be definitely good . We create our own destiny . Few minutes of meditation and exercise can help be in the present moment.

In childhood , we used to play a game called statue where we had to stand still without any moment when the person says statue . Probably we need to start playing the same game again if we can't take few minutes to be still.

"Today, let us all take up this one intention, "Come what may, I will not lose my smile, my spirit, and my enthusiasm!" Then you can be of great help to people around you. You will be a guiding light in your family, to your friends circle, in society -- everywhere! You will be the most 'wanted’ person, in the good sense, not in any other sense."-Sri Sri 

Kabali

I'm not a crazy fan of Rajni Kanth . But I like his style and acting . I have watched a few movies of Rajni Kanth and they are nice . His screen presence is amazing . Like one of my colleague who told she is a fan of fan following of Rajni Kanth . Most of the people have watched the movie because of the hype surrounding it . If something can make you feel good , which doesn't harm you or anyone , then why not pursue it .

" Whether you have a Maruti or a BMW, the road remains the same. Whether you travel economy class or business, your destination doesn't change. Whether you have a Titan or a Rolex, the time is the same. There is nothing wrong in dreaming a luxurious life. What needs to be taken care of is not let need become greed. Because needs can always be met, but greed can never be fulfilled."-Rajni Kanth 

Purpose of life

What is the purpose of Life ??? When you don't have a purpose , its like a ship which doesn't know where it has to go . Its important to find your purpose in life .Otherwise there are many chances of getting into addictions and boredom.

Today being Guru Poornima day ,I acknowledge all the Gurus in my life and extremely thankful to all of them .

To whatever degree we are alert, aware, to that degree we are living.
~ Sri Sri

Time to reflect

Sometimes life takes you in such curves that you don 't know whether to cry or laugh . When the recurring dream or the worst nightmare comes true . At these times , the only source of strength is your own self .

What happens when your dream comes true .Are you happy or are you in tears . Whom do you speak your mind .Will anyone understand your soul .

Life is never easy even for a child .Then how will it be easy for an adult. Everyone keep s advising you .Do you have to listen or let go .

Who defines what are your roles and responsibilities . When responsibilities are taken , its more fun rather than someone imposing on you.

What happens when  your expectations are not met ??do you still move on or do you pause ??

What happens when someone lets you down ?? Do you still have your confidence or do you lose it .

Some of them we mite not have answers but its worth pondering about .

“Life is nothing to be very serious about. Life is a ball in your hands to play with. Don’t hold on to the ball."

― Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

You are not a chocolate !

You are not a chocolate , you can't please everyone . Its not easy to please everybody . We are definitely not chocolates .Its important to be yourself and live life on your terms .

She is one of the finest writers and I'm truly inspired by her.

Another thing which I heard is accept people as they are .
Love can happen only when we accept them as they are . We can definitely give our point of view but we need to remain  stable .

Joy is expansion, becoming big in your heart. This can only happen in a situation where you are very much in love, but cannot posses what you love.~ Sri Sri
