TIME IS THE BEST GIFT YOU CAN EVER GIVE

BitterSweet, Life skills, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

The most prized possessions we own are our memories-the bittersweet moments we fondly treasure to look back into and smile whenever we need one.Those cute childhood memories,the times we spent being our parents’ spoiled kids,the memories of school and college,the precious little moments of sharing talks about anything and everything with our friends, the moments of laughter,pain,achievements and a million other things.

Memories are precious..

Memories mean treasured moments;

Memories mean time-that was,that will never come back yet stay in our heart and mind forever.

As we move on with our life, we often remember people by the memories we hold of them. We laugh and cry and become all nostalgic reliving all those old memories when we meet our friends who we haven’t seen since ages.We realize that it wasn’t really what we gave our friends or our family or our loved ones that mattered more,it was how much we spent time with them to create such treasured memories and that, made the real difference.

The best gift there can ever be is the gift of TIME.

Sure we all love getting gifts.Besides the happiness of having shiny new things; it is also about that special feeling of knowing that people genuinely care.But besides all the momentary happiness we gain from having things we always wanted,in the end,it is the thought, the love, the care and the feeling that matters the most to us.

Every relationship needs time. We grew up happily because our parents gave us their time no matter how hectic their own schedules were. We have a few friends who are dearer to us than life itself because we gave them our time and they gave us theirs.We fall in love because we give it time to flourish.Those memories, those beautiful moments-everything resulted from time we spent on creating them.

Everything is only a matter of time.After a while, It won’t matter how much you spent on that lavish gift you gave your loved one. What will matter is the amount of time you spent on making people feel special, on showing that for you-your people come first.

Sometimes in life,we get so busy putting everything  together that we forget there are people who expect us to spend time with them but are too considerate about our busy lives that they don’t even say it.We tend to be so caught up in our own lives that we don’t realize how long it has been since we last spoke to our loved ones or spent quality time with them.We don’t give them our time,and life passes by in wasted moments which could have been magical otherwise.

As humans,we are emotional beings-we crave love,we crave care,we crave moments of pure joy,we crave happiness. Occasionally we get tired of all the chaos and want to spend some time away and alone but most of the times,we want to be surrounded by people who love us-we crave importance!

For instance,one would rather choose their family and friends come over to see them on their birthday than getting a stack of presents delivered at their homes and not having a single person to share the joy of the occasion with.

The thing is-time,is the greatest gift of all!

 

I hope all of us realize this and spend more time with people we love.I hope we make fond memories everyday,I hope at times we go out of our way to make someone happy,I hope we share laughter and good times everyday,I hope we share moments everyday and I hope that we live everyday.

Happy Living!

“I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see. “-John Burroughs

LIFE-So many of us live just for the sake of  it without realizing how precious each moment is.So many of us just wait for occasions to be happy and celebrate.So many of us often treat life as if it’s some cumbersome job that is just to be done with.

But do we really realize each day we live in that it is such a divine blessing to have this life?Do we understand that the time we have today,will be gone tomorrow never to come back again?Do we realize that the memories we hold on to so dearly are those parts of life we spent beautifully and that it was us who helped make it so dear?Do we realize that we live,but don’t live enough?

So many of us go about with our lives and do not appreciate it enough,

Be the one who appreciates life!

So many of us take life as it comes and do not make efforts to make it our own,

Be the one who makes life his own!

So many of us get so caught up in our life that we no more have time for the people in our lives,

Be the one who always makes time for people!

So many of us just dream of a perfect life,and waste it whining and waiting,

Be the one who never waits and make his own dreams come true!

Life is like an empty canvas to be painted on with all the beautiful colors and the palette is in our hands.Life is not what makes us,We are what make life.

So,Live like there’s no pain in the world,Live like there’s no tomorrow and Live like today is the best occasion to celebrate.Because TODAY,the life that is happening to you right now is the right time to live,laugh and enjoy in the best way you can.

Don’t just breathe,Don’t just sit there and watch life pass by-LIVE and LIVE LARGE-IN YOUR OWN TERMS!!

DON”T JUST BREATHE,LIVE INSTEAD!

Like William Wallace said-‘Every man dies. Not every man really lives.’
Be the one who lives!

Life isn’t perfect,but it’s beautiful.

Happy Living!

WHEN LOVE KNOCKS AT YOUR DOOR..

A thing called Love, , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Life isn’t exactly like the glossy romantic movies or fairy tales where one fine day,you stumble upon your soul mate- a statuesque picture of perfection,who sweeps you away from your feet, wins your heart all over and takes you out of your misery to a faraway place where you live happily ever after.

By now,we know well enough that it doesn’t work like that.But still, we long to find the perfect lover-Right from the looks to the character to the voice and manners and even the way he cares and loves-the picture of our ideal lover is fairly etched in our minds.

But there is never a perfect person,a perfect day,a perfect place,a perfect time or a perfect moment to fall in love.Love simply happens-the only difference is that sometimes it eventually materializes as time passes by and sometimes it happens in the slightest of moments-when you see a person and sparks fly all around.

That is love for you-it comes unannounced and has the ability and strength to stay as long as forever.Love is the biggest blessing we have,the biggest gift we can give and the biggest treasure that we own,which increases all the more when shared.It doesn’t come with a price tag but is still precious,it doesn’t come with terms and conditions but is still required to be handled with great care.Love is the synonym of happiness and who doesn’t want happiness in life?So when life offers you love,don’t let it slip by.

Love is not about the perfect people and a perfect relationship-it is about imperfect people and a love that goes beyond perfection.As Jodi Picoult stated in My Sister’s Keeper,“You don’t love someone because they’re perfect, you love them in spite of the fact that they’re not.”

An ideal relationship is beyond materialism;one that is simple,sweet and surreal.If the happiness of the person who you love matters to you more than your own happiness,If your love grows deeper and stronger with every passing day,If you feel in your heart that finding the love of your life is  the best thing that ever happened to you,If you know and understand that it is meant to be-then what more reasons you seek to make it last forever?

One doesn’t find love,love finds you.Let love find you,and when it does;don’t let it go.Whoever said that whatever happens,happens for good, was right in saying so.Even if  you failed at making a relationship last,love will find you again-don’t shut yourself from all the happiness you deserve and can have.Don’t let go of people who love you simply because they don’t love you the way you want them to,because they still love you in their own way.

When love knocks at your door,don’t restrain with the hope of finding a better one

Because in the hope of finding a better one,you may have given away the best you could ever get.

And lastly, remember that life may not always turn out the way you wished it would,but it sure turns out good and what is exactly right for you.I wish you joy,happiness and love and above all,I wish you LIFE!!

“You’ve gotta dance like there’s nobody watching,
Love like you’ll never be hurt,
Sing like there’s nobody listening,
And live like it’s heaven on earth.” 
― William W. Purkey

THE HAPPINESS RECIPE

Life skills, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Each one of us-with different dreams,different goals and different perspectives,wake up each morning with a new purpose and go about with our different lives.All of us are different,unique and distinguished from one another-yet there are things which brings us all together irrespective of all the differences we have.

If personalities make us different,emotions make us alike.

If religions divide us,humanity brings us together.

If choices make us different,love makes us alike.

If countries divide us,the world brings us together.

The core of everything that we seek is same.The path we walk on may be different but our destinations are the same.We all strive for happiness alike,we are all afraid of being left out,we all want a beautiful life,we all want unconditional love,we all want life-long friendships.We all want HAPPINESS.

The recipe for happiness,in fact,is simply there in our hearts,waiting to be brought out in each one of us,to be shared,to be given,to be felt and to be expressed-without greed,without selfishness and without negativity.

All we need is just a little love,

All we need is just a little care,

All we need is just a little encouragement,

All we need is just a little kindness,

All we need is just a little respect,

All we need is just a little faith,

And the world is a happy place again!!

FOR THE PEOPLE IN OUR LIFE-WHO TRULY MATTER!!!!

Inspirations, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Every day,we meet a lot of people,but there are only a selected few among the millions of people we stumble upon in our life,who will remain unforgettable and hold a very special place in our hearts no matter what.

In all of our lives,we come across a lot of people who,in some way or the other,are in our hearts and minds-be it the special ones,the very very special ones,the unforgettables,the best ones,the loud ones,the quiet ones,the advisors,the “hello-hi” types,the bad ones,the silly ones,etc.

But whatever may be the kind of relation we share with them,people are one of the most essential part of our lives.

Words won’t be enough to explain what importance they hold,but here are some people,who are the best of them all:

Our FAMILY who have seen us grow ,been with us at all times-good or bad and who forgive us no matter what,the ones who give meaning to “Coming Home”.

That one BEST FRIEND who knows all our secrets,shares all our pains and celebrates all our successes.

That BROTHER who stands by us to protect us from this big bad world.

That SISTER who is our best companion,best critic and best friend,who,If it comes to us against the world, even fights for us.

That TEACHER who pushed us to work harder because s/he saw our potential before we could.

That ROLEMODEL whom we looked upon all the time,who gave us inspiration to be the best we could be.

That FUNNY ONE who always managed to make us smile even at our lowest times.

Those FRIENDS who we shared moments and memories with,those who were always there to quietly mourn at our loss and joyfully celebrate on our gains.

That LOVER who admires you for the person you are ,who gives you love that is larger-than-life and for whom you are the best thing in the world.

Life may be hard at times,but when we have the love and support of people who believe in us,every journey seems a lot easier!!Life is all about the people we have in it-to share the laughs,to cry together,to be there for each other and simply to understand that without these wonderful people,our life would never have been what it is!

THE GREATEST INSPIRATIONS II:FATHER

Inspirations, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Quiet,untold,sometimes merely unexpressed and sometimes hard to define in words-such is the relationship between a father and his child.

The glory of this relationship may not be as much written about,as much sung upon or as much discussed about as a mother-child relationship,but both the parents bestow the best of their love upon their off springs.A father’s role is as equally contributing and important on shaping the future of his child as a mother’s.

A father works hard to secure his child’s future,He returns home tired yet takes out his children to dinners with a smile on his face,He wants his children to have all their whims and wishes fulfilled at their first demand,He spoils his children rotten but still manages to set an example of discipline in the house.

A father’s love may not come with the fancy packaging of flowers,beautified words,out-of-the-world showering of love and affection but it is nonetheless a raw love that is as ready to give any sacrifices for the sake of creating a heaven for his children to live in.

Dad-The best Three letter word ever!!(Photo credit: Wikipedia)

So here is an standing ovation,a dedication and a nod-

“To fathers who cried with joy when they first held their child;

To fathers who teach their children what is right and what is not;

To fathers who encourage their children to rise again after each fall;

To fathers who are role-models for their children;

To fathers who teach their children never to give up;

To fathers who inspire their children to be just like them;

To fathers who believe in their children above all odds;

To fathers who love and never tell;

To fathers who get tired but never frown;

To fathers who work the hardest and never complain;

To fathers whose hopes and determination never grow old;

To fathers ,The best ones in the world.”

I Love You Dad
