The Gutters on the way


You have just purchased a lovely bouquet of flowers and are decked up to attend a birthday party. 

You park your vehicle at a distance and walk a few meters towards your destination. On your way, lays a gutter with no lid and venting the stinky smell of the dump it stores within. 

It irritates your olfactory senses and you are irritated. What would you do? 

Most of us will say we'd walk away from that place real quick, and we'd immediately hunt our bags and pockets for any perfumes we might be carrying. Lastly we'd have the flower bouquet that will come to the rescue. 

Such are the negative situations, of life. They are full of opinions, judgements, perceptions, toxicity, gossip making them stinky. Whenever you cross roads with such situations they are bound to bother you, but most of us instead of walking away towards positivity, sit over this negative gutter and inhale it and get further irritated. 

We were destined to meet the gutter, the handling of the situation is totally up to us. Either you sit on that gutter, call everyone on your phone book and weep about how bad the smell is. Which I tell you ain't going to do any good because you are just sitting over it. 

Instead, remove those heels and run as fast as you can and inhale the bouquet of positivity you hold and this will automatically wipe off the discomfort you felt some time back. You can now happily walk towards your destination and enjoy the party. 

In life you can't dream of having the paths with no gutters, there will be ample, everyday. The onus is on you how quickly you get away from it. Positivity is within you, the external environment has many elements that can pull you down, but once you master the art to handle them. There is nothing stopping you! 

On that note wrapping it up with lots of love and positivity ❤❤

Emotional Cancer

Today world is remembering today's day as World Cancer Day. Most of you who are reading about this must be having some emotional connection or someone you know who is or was fighting cancer at some point in life. For me it was a transformational journey. I suffered emotional cancer.  I know, medical science identifies no diease as such, but when cancer has taken over someone beloved you are affected by it.  I was! My world turned upside down.    I was working in Ahmedabad, my first job and first time that I was away from home. My mother was the force behind my lone survival in the new city. In would often call her and say, "you don't love me, that's why you have just let me be here alone." I accused her for my initial hiccups to adjust in a new place. Calm and composed like always she never got angry at me. She never lost her faith, she knew it was just matter of time that I'd adjust in the new city and things will get rolling. And so it was. I blended with ne...

बिना किसी मंजिल.....

बिना किसी मंज़िल,  खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो कुदरत ने किस्मत के डब्बे मे क्या छिपा रखा है  कभी ज़रा खोल कर तो देखो।  भीड़ लगी जिन रास्तो पर,  दौड़ जहा सारे लगा रहे उन रास्तो से  कभी यू टर्न लेकर तो देखो।  मीलों बिछी उन सड़कों की कहानी कभी सुनो,  उन पर बिखरे अनुभव के मोती तो चुनो।  कहेंगी तुमसे ये हजारो दास्ताने, ध्यान लगाकर, कभी ज़रा सुनकर तो देखो,  बिना किसी मंज़िल,  खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो । मंजिल को पाने के जुनून मे,  जो भूल जाते हो सफर का लुत्फ उठाना!  कभी इस बस्ते को एक तरफ रख, सड़क किनारे बैठ कर तो देखो।  दर्शक बन, वहां से  कभी गुज़रते मुसाफिरों की टोली भी देखो।  उनकी विविधता मैं,  उनके लक्ष्य की एकता को देखों।  बिना किसी मंज़िल खाली रास्तों पर चल कर तो देखो । क्या कभी लहराते पेड़ों की,  मदमस्त चाल देख पाये हो? वो चिड़िया क्या धुन गुनगुनाती है, क्या कभी समझ पाये हो?  अपनी उलझनों का पिटारा छोड़कर,  प्रकृति के इस चमत्कार को तो देखो।  बिना किसी मंज़िल  खाली रास्तों ...
