Search for Happiness in Everything

"Mom I don't want to go to school today."

"Uff these assignments and lectures"

"Again there is a meeting, oh no, not now."

"What! Today is still Tuesday? "

" Why the Sunday goes so fast?"

And more and more such expressions we had before this lockdown.

See today we are missing what we were fed up of. We are missing the canteen side fun, bunking the class, the boss's lecture, the most unexpected one is we are missing Monday, strange na.

Simply we are just missing our old routine or life. The life from which we want to run away and now we want to return to that old lifestyle.

Earlier we dreamt of family time, homemade food, sleeping till noon, late night movies, playing games, free time and much more. We wish for a break. So oneday, our wish got fulfilled. We don't have to go to school, college, office, etc., we spend time with family, play games, slept all day long and do what we was planning from a long time.

In starting we love these things, we enjoyed being at home, watching show and movies, do some long desired work. But days after days, week after week, we got bored of these things. Even most of us haven't done anything much creative and innovative , yet we want to return to the old normal life. We want everything now which was earlier boring and hectic for us. 

This points to one of the basic nature of human that the desires and needs of a human is infinite and most importantly, they are changing every other moment. At one time we need this to the other second we need that. We doesn't value what we have until we lost it. We always dreamt of a thing we don't have and when we got that, instead of valuing that things we started dreaming of another thing. We complaint for what we haven't and forgot to be thankful for so many things we have.

Dreaming for something and working for it is not wrong, but we got so much engaged in that things that we forgot to value those things we have. We forgot to be thankful, and that's where we are wrong. 

I'm not saying that this time is good no I'm not. But we all should remember that:

"Everything that happened is not good but there is good in everything that happened"

There are  so many things which happened these days for which we was planning and just waiting from a long time. And we should be thankful for that.

Just think once ,

When the whole world is facing a tough situation, we are just chilling at home, doing all the silly things and most importantly we are safe, shouldn't we have to be thankful for this.

When many people are still away from their family and home, we are with our family in the home, shouldn't we have to be thankful for this.

There are lakhs of people who don't have food to eat and we are having a good meal and even our favourite food on the table, shouldn't we have to be thankful for this. 

When everyday we read thousands of people are reported positive for covid-19, we are healthy and safe, shouldn't we have to be thankful for this.

Even we read or heard thousands of death because of the pandemic or any other reason, we are still alive, shouldn't we have to be thankful for this.

We have a chance to do what we want, to correct our mistakes and to make a change in the coming days. We have to realised that how blessed we are. We have to be thankful for each day which gives us another chance to live, each time when we have food on the table, each hour we spend with family, each moment we laughed, each minute we feel safe from the thousands of problem prevailing around us, each second we live and each breath we take. We have to be thankful for each and every feelings, emotions, moments of our life. And along with this, we have to realised that life doesn't give the second chance to everyone. So make sure to make it worth.

You know her??

In today's dynamic and busy world we don't have patience. We hear anyone's story and we started making a complete picture of a person only by knowing a small side even so instantly and with much confidence that anyone gets confused that we know a person from a long time, even if we met the person only one's.  

 

Here in this post I tried to pen down this situation in short and simple way.

 

You know her??

When you see her and pass a smile and she smiles you back, you think you know her.

She shares her laughter and happiness with you and you think you know her.

You know what her dream is and you think you know her.

You noticed every little things about her and you think you know her. 

She spent a good day with you and you think you know her.

But you don't know her.

You must be thinking that what you don't know about her.

So here it is:

You don't know what she is hiding behind her smile.

You don't know how she spent her night after spending a good day with you.

You only know her dream but you don't know how she fights to achieve that dream, goals, expectations of others and so many little things which you never thought of.

You don't know that she is a puzzle of thousand pieces of which you only know a single piece correctly.

You don't know how many layers are still hidden inside her which are yet to be revealed.

Simply,

You just know what she reveals to the world, what you don't know is she still has a unseen world inside her.

You don't know a lot of things about her and you think you know her.

If you want to know her, then, 

You have to listen her silence.

You have to feel her pain.

You have to go deep inside her thoughts.

You have to explore her world, from her perspectives.

You still have to know many things about her, before you can say that I know her.

 

Father: the Pillar of our Life

Happy Father's Day

This is for all the father's out there who have done so much for his children and family. I can't express each and every emotions and feeling in words because it isn't possible. There are many things which we just feel in these relationships. I tried to write as much as I can. 

Dear Dad

I know I am not the best child in the world but you are the best dad.

I know that I haven't done anything in my life which makes you proudly say that I'm your child but you are still proud of me and will always be.

I merely listen to your suggestions and most of the time I do what I wish to, yet you never stopped helping me with your valuable ideas.

Later most of my ideas would fail, which made me realise that yours were right.

But still you love me and motivate me that I gave my best. 

You always teach me that life will not always be the bed of roses and whatever comes in my way needs to be seen as an opportunity.

Today I won't say 'Thank You' because it's not enough. Even If I spend my whole life thanking you, it will only be a small amount of everything you've done for me.

The person who has done so much for me, sacrificed his whole life in making mine beautiful, forgot his dreams just to fulfill mine, I don't feel a thousand thank you will be enough for all those things you have done for me.

 I just pray that you always stay happy, keep smiling, and have a healthy life ahead.

And most importantly, you always stay with me, 

Your hands being on my head, 

Your blessings upon me,

Your praying lips as always prayed for me, my success, happiness, smile and everything.

Your presence gives me strength a feeling, of being protected and loved always.

I love you and promise that one day your naughty child will make you proud. 

Your irresponsible child will learn how to take responsibilities.

 Your impatient child will be patient enough to wait for the things she needs. 

Your always complaining child won't complain for anything. 

Your funny, annoying child who never took anything seriously will become a deep analyser and act accordingly.

 And most importantly which I don't want to happen,  your little child will grow up and understand the meaning of life.

ONE DAY

I promise.

I will make you proud. 

And become the best child of the best Dad in the world.

Your loving child.

Hope you liked it.

Do tell me in the comment section below how is it. 

Your every action can't be appreciated

It is a pleasant morning having a clear sky, the sun is shining in full glory, the chirping of birds in the sky sounds pleasing to the ear, plants and trees are moving along with the wind and creates a beautiful start of a day.

The rays of sunlight enters from your window and lighten up your room and from that a ray falls on your face and wakes you up for a beautiful day. You open your brighten eyes having a million of dreams and a spark of innocence and love. Your lips as always have that pretty smile which makes the bright environment more brighter and beautiful. Your heart carries a hope of filling the world with love, happiness and positivity. Like the all other days you start your morning with million of thoughts, dreams and emotions.

You pass smile to everyone you met all day long. You tries to make the dull places energetic and lively with your positive vibes and smile. Wherever you go, you leaves your spark, a spot of your presence and thoughts. You meet everyone with love and hugs. You share your happiness with others to make them smile and laugh which helps them in fighting their own problems and fills them with a feeling of positivity and love. You help others in achieving their goals. You make a child on the street laugh, you play with them so that they won't feel alone and different. You help an old lady in the market as she is having a problem in trying to put her needy things in the packet.

You do all this from the core of your heart.

You are messed up but can't see anyone struggling with the same. You gave time to everyone even if you lacks time for yourself. You tries to understand everyone and everything, when deep inside you want someone to understand you. 

You don't blame anyone. You don't complain or ask for anything in return. But you just want that everyone will be happy with you and lives a happy life too. But the fact is you know that you can't make everyone happy but your heart doesn't want to accept this. You want to try and change these things .

You know that even when you give your 1000% there will be someone who thinks that you are rude. There will be still a person for whom you are selfish, for whom you are someone who only want your happiness and success. These people don't remember what you have done for them but they only remember the time when they need you and you aren't there. These are the people for whom you are and will be nothing.

But that doesn't stop you from doing what you did everyday. Because for you that's not a life. You know there are also someone who sees all what you have done for them and for others too. There are people who smiles in your happiness, who weeps in your sorrow, who gets sad by your failure and who do and will do anything to make you smile and happy again.

And like the time passed the sun moves down the sky and darkness spread all over the world. In that darkness and silence a Moon alone in the sky tries to lessen the darkest hour and spread some lights and a ray of hope to the world. 

When you go to bed after a long tired, stressed and hectic day, you have a lot of emotions, a never ending fight with your own thoughts, the choice of right and wrong, good or bad, accepting the reality or again trying to make a change the next day and with the same situation, problem, confusion and unfulfilled desire you enters  in the world of dream where everything is as beautiful as you and many others like you think of. There everyone gets the reward for every little thing they have done for others without desiring for anything in return. The whole night passed in that beautiful world.

The next day when you wakes up you have the same smile and enthusiasm. Today You will do everything what you did before with the same smile and positivity but this time there will be a difference in your action and it can be easily visible in your eyes. Today you will try to accept the bitter truth of life and face the reality of world. From today onwards you will try to change only what you can and whenever someone passed a bad comment about you or can't understand you and your actions, you will remind yourself that "you can do anything to make someone's life but you can't be appreciated for all what you did".

In Search of Yourself

Everyone was running in an unending race  with each other and in that some was busied in their career, some in education,  profession and wordly life and forgot their responsibility towards nature, family, friends and even themselves. We don't had time for anything we postponed our family trip because of work, exams, etc. We delayed the friends union because no one had time. We postponed every plans for vacations, holidays, that, on Sunday we will meet them, on this holiday I will clean my garden and plant some trees, on sunday we do this, we do that and all the time we just need break from this hustle and bustle of life. And then suddenly one day Nature gives us a break, Everything gets paused. 

We don't had to wait for sunday now because everyday is now Sunday. The time we were searching and waiting from so many days and years is here. But not in that way we wish it.

We try to make time for family, now we all are with family 24×7 . We play games which we hadn't played since our childhood. We search for our old albums, childhood toys, old journal's and much more.

We have so much spare time that we called our old lost friends with whom we hadn't talk in a while, we make video calls with each other and repeat the old childhood stories, classroom fun and relieve the old moments or I can say golden days of our life.

But the most important thing we all did in this period is 

"We go in the search of ourselves"

We try to find the real purpose and meaning of our life. We have time for ourselves, we think of our unfulfilled dreams, passion, hobby our likes- dislikes.We hear our inner voices which was earlier somewhere lost in the heavy noise of the worldly pleasures. Apart from these things we try to do something new, discover new talent and instead of doing our normal daily chores we tried a new or creative lifestyle also.

Who thinks that a businessman has a talent of an art too, an economist has a musician locked inside, an engineer  designs a best clothes and most common is a writer or a influencer which is almost present in most of us

I believe everyone has an inbuilt or hidden talent of something and this lockdown gives us a chance to work on ourselves, our inner voice, unfulfilled desire, a hidden talent and even learned new skills too.

When we keep distance from people and this wordly life, we connect with ourselves. We hear the voices within us, we try to find our true potential, what our heart desires and what we have to do.We tries to find out what we are and what we  can. We realise our value, our responsibility, potential and most importantly our reason of existence.

We question ourselves that:

What I am? And What I have to?

What I'm doing? And What I have to do?

No double, we will again return to our normal life when all these things will be over but we will still remember this time for ages and most of us even for a while want and will continue this routine of becoming a better version of themselves and to hear their inner voices too. They will continue their passion along with profession and most importantly "there search for themselves" will always be continued.
