What a tree is without roots!

Freelance Jobs
One fine morning, I was on my walk (I enjoy morning walk as it is the only time in the entire day which is quite peaceful and everything looks fresh and full of life! Health benefits are like icing on the cake :-D). The previous night there was thunderstorm and it rained. So weather was very beautiful. But there was a few scenes of destruction ...end of life..for some trees. Some trees were uprooted along the roadside. Two trees were full grown.
I love nature for its bounty and the might it has. I felt little sad over the fact that the trees which give us shade and life, they themselves have lost their life....why? Because they were separated from their roots!!
I started thinking if a tree has no roots...it has no life. What about roots of humans? We too have roots...in our childhood. Our roots start building when we come to this world and become stronger as we grow up. By the time we reach our teen years, our roots become so strong that one cannot and must not be separated from its roots...
But many among us are living..still living...though living far from their roots. Far from their parents..... far from  their home....their hometown....childhood friends....fond memories of schooldays, first girlfriend/boyfriend  (are you smiling?)

Is it not a wonder? We are living such a life...we don't even care to remember our roots. We are amazing example of species who continue breathing without regard of our roots!! But pause for a moment and think over it...Is this a life of satisfaction, fulfillment and love?

Dear friends, I expressed what came to my mind. It is a decision at individual level what to live and how to live..

Bye n take care..................

Doing the best thing - and doing it best!

A few years ago, I was reading an interview of a famous actor in a leading daily. One part of his interview touched my heart. He was asked if he was interested in directing a movie to which he replied-"I want to act only. This is the best thing I can do and do it well." Was he restricting himself to a safer zone of his career? Should not one take risks in his life to venture into something new- to grow and learn? I found answer to this question from my personal experience. I was preparing for various competitive exams. Even after hard work (what I think) I couldn't score well in the two exams of banking jobs. It was a disheartening experience for me as I had devoted much time to prepare myself for these two exams and I was feeling very confident to get very good score also. However, this experience taught me a lesson of lifetime-"Do your best but do what you can do best" If you are a good singer and has been singing for last many years, I am sure, you have the

Sipping juice and thinking

One day  I was sitting in the balcony of our home and enjoying the cool evening breeze, sipping a glass of mango-shake. In such moments, my mind begins giving me ideas and I start composing them in my mind. One idea I got was related to the  juices -  inside every human being. This juice is the source of energy. I am, here, referring to our mind. Sometimes, thoughts surround you all-over like surround music. One may enjoy surround music, but not such thoughts. You feel like a victim, just flowing with your own thoughts, like a faithful servant. It happens many a times, especially when you are in a pensive mood. Such situation can be a draining one, especially if you start enjoying it. YES! many a times, we ‘enjoy’ such moods,  like taking small sips from a glass of juice . (Not knowing it actually squeezes juice out of you). That’s why many people fail to come out of their situations. Such situations can be due to our personal, family, social, professional or any kind of problems

Ideas are as great as you want

What an idea, sir ji?  I really have started believing in the power of ideas. The biggest inventions of mankind were started with an idea first, then were followed by the work on them. I want to share THE BIGGEST IDEA with you. It is-"Never let any idea go out of your head without using it." It doesn't matter how bad or good it is. The quality of idea can be decided later on. There are ideas running on the top floor of every "human building". :-) Whenever an idea clicks you, note it down somewhere-as fast you can. It may be your cell phone, your notebook (electronic or paper), your pocket diary or just a piece of paper. The idea here is-record it somewhere permanently. Don't just keep it in your head. The stay of ideas-in your head-is for very short duration. They just enter your head and vanish in the air. If you fail to note down what clicked your mind, later you may not be able to recall accurately what occurred to you. Even if you bang your head again
