Have fun..........Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone of us live for some goals in our lives .. We spent a lot of time preparing for that .. Being a kid, we have lots and lots of fun, then studies, vocational courses, stress in life, social life etc comes and our lives are overwhelmed with them ... Sometimes we don't even remember when we smiled last .. or when we had fun .....
Fun is a state of mind. If you have a zest for life, you will never miss out on fun. Don't be uptight all the time. Drop your worries and just learn to chill-out.
Its not easy to forget what is going on in life, but its OK to be a kid sometimes .. forget about worries, forget about goals, forget about stress, forget about what is going to happen next... and laugh as loud as you want, as loud as u can .. run as much as u can, leaving the stress behind .. open your hands in the blowing breeze and feel like flying .....
Dance as though no one is watching you; love as though you have never been hurt before, sing as though no one can hear you, live as though heaven is on earth.
If you do this once a week .. you will be stress free and then can go ahead to achieve goals with a new zeal ..
Try it .......... it helped me ...... may help you too :)

Obstacles!!!!!!
Most of our obstacles would melt away, if, instead of cowering before them, we should make up our minds to walk boldly through them ... Obstacles will look large or small to you according to whether you are large or small .. Meaning its the attitude which decides whether the obstacle is big or small ... For the positive attitude, the bigger the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it ..
The one with negative attitude, try to blame others for the obstacles and do not do there own bit ... God gives you hurdles as he thinks u r capable of overcoming it .. If he has faith in you, why not u urself ...
Lemme tell u a short story which tells exactly what i meant to say .. Its the attitude that makes difference...
In ancient times, a king had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it.
Many loudly blamed the king for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the big Stone out of the way. Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. On approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded. As the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a Purse lying on the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the king indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway. The peasant learned what many others never understand.
Trust in GOD always, He gives u situations because he knws that u can handle it :)

Helping Hands
I dont understand why people do not want to help others ... If they are asked to they will make excuses .. I m quite far, i have no time etc. etc. Every one in this world needs help some time or the other .. and it is related to the feeling and emotions you have for human kind to help .. If you decide to help someone, nothing can stop you. Its inside you and nothing else ...
Let me tell you a short story.. It seems to be a lil unrealistic but is of great help in understanding my point for view ...
An old man lived alone in Minnesota. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, who would have helped him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned his situation. Dear Son, I am feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I hate to miss doing the garden, because your mother always loved planting time. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me, if you weren't in prison. Love, Dad Shortly, the old man received this telegram: "For Heaven's sake, Dad, don't dig up the garden!! That's where I buried the GUNS!" The next morning, A dozen FBI agents and local police officers showed up and dug up the entire garden without finding any guns.Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling him what happened, and asked him what to do next.His son's reply was: "Go ahead and plant your potatoes, Dad. It's the best I could do for you from here."
Moral of the Story :- NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE IN THE WORLD, IF YOU HAVE DECIDED TO DO SOMETHING DEEP FROM YOUR HEART, YOU CAN DO IT. IT IS THE THOUGHT THAT MATTERS NOT WHERE YOU ARE OR WHERE THE PERSON IS...

Happiness!!!!
Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it. It is not very difficult to be happy, just need to have that vision which can see happiness in small things ... Many people wait for big things to happen, and hence ignore small things to get happiness... Happiness is not only in getting something we don't have, but to accept and appreciate what we have ... Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you have decided to look beyond imperfections ..
Happiness cannot be kept with oneself .. It shud be shared and once shared it is increased .. Thousands of candles can be lit by a single candle and the light of the candle will not get dim ...
Happiness is in your mind .. You need to be present and aware for grabing happiness in everything .. Truely said: It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you areor what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about it.....
The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet .. This means people think that if I achieve that particular level of satisfaction (no matter how far it is), then only I will be able to get happiness in my life, However it is possible to be happy with small things happening in life .. This doesn't mean that we shud loose focus towards our goal or take it lightly, but it means that while on the way to the goal we shud not be very tensed or tired, We shud find happiness near us to keep us light and energetic so that we can reach our goal ... Happiness increases positivity in mind and hence we can reach our goal ............
When i asked someone today abt happiness, she said : "its a dew in desert, money for begger, love for a lover, and success for learner, marks for student, it has different forms for me. its just like a smile on face n giggle in someone's heart because of me" ...
One more thing i would like to point out, It is not easy to find happiness in ourselves, and it is not possible to find it elsewhere ......
Finally, happiness is increased when shared, Its like a Kiss which when shared is enjoyed .......Keep smiling and spread it too ...............

Smile Again!!!!!
Enough of gyan session these days .. Lets have some simple pass time so that u can smile and relax urself of a busy schedule ...
"One fine day, a bus driver went to the bus garage, started his bus, and drove off along the route. No problems for the first few stops - a few people got on, a few got off, and things went generally well. At the next stop, however, a big hulk of a guy got on. Six feet eight,built like a wrestler, arms hanging down to the ground. He glared at the driver and said, " Big John doesn't pay!" and sat down at the back.
Did I mention that the driver was five feet three, thin, and basically meek? Well, he was. Naturally, he didn't argue with Big John, but he wasn't happy about it. The next day the same thing happened - Big John got on again, made a show of refusing to pay, and sat down. And the next day, and the next. This grated on the bus driver, who started losing sleep over the way Big John was taking advantage of him. Finally he could stand it no longer. He signed up for body building courses, karate, judo, and all that good stuff.
By the end of the summer, he had become quite strong; what's more, he felt really good about himself. So on the next Monday, when Big John once again got on the bus and said, " Big John doesn't pay!" The driver stood up, glared back at the passenger, and screamed, " And why not?" With a surprised look on his face, Big John replied, " Big John has a bus pass."
The Moral behind this is not every person is bad .. Do not scare of strong people as they are not always meant to harm you ............... :)

The Other Side!!!!!!!
Why always me??? Why did God did this to me??? etc ... etc ... We can hear such complaints from every one who is undergoing a problematic situation ... This is a common tendency, people do not face the situation but try to complain and run from it ... In my opinion, God puts you in a situation which He knws that you can handle. It might seem difficult to you, coz you are looking at one side of the problem which looks complex and dangerous ... Guys... We are God's Children .. He cannot be that cruel or harsh on us ... He always provides a simple way to tackle with that tough situation.. The thing is we need to be smart enough to grab that opportunity .. We need to have that eye that can look towards the simple way .. There is always the other side to everything, which just requires a smart look and we are through ...
Lemme tell you a small story...............
“A Father was reading a magazine and his little daughter every now and then distracted him. To keep her busy, he tore one page on which was printed the map of the world. He tore it into pieces and asked her to go to her room and put them together to make the map again. He was sure she would take the whole day to get it done. But the little one came back within minutes with perfect map.
When he asked how she could do it so quickly, she said, 'Oh… Dad, there is a man's face on the other side of the paper. I made the face perfect to get the map right."" she ran outside to play leaving the father surprised.”
Friends, There is always the other side to whatever you experience in this world. This story indirectly teaches a lesson. That is, whenever we come across a challenge or a puzzling situation, look at the other side...You will be surprised to see an easy way to tackle the problem...
Smile now and be ready to face every situation in life with a positive energy and intelligent eye ...
Always visualize only favorable and beneficial situations. Use positive words in your inner dialogues or when talking with others. Smile a little more, as this helps to think positively. Disregard any feelings of laziness or a desire to quit ... Once a negative thought enters your mind, you have to be aware of it and endeavor to replace it with a constructive one. The negative thought will try again to enter your mind, and then you have to replace it again with a positive one. In case you feel any inner resistance when replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, do not give up, but keep looking only at the beneficial, good and happy thoughts in your mind.

Anger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"For every minute u r angry, u lose sixty seconds of happiness"
Someone said that to me and i was stunned ... How right he was .... We always try to relax and be happy, we always try to smile and let the sorrows and flawns go away ... We always try to take time out of our busy schedule to be happy, but never thought about the time we are angry ... We are angry on someone when our expectations are not met. We can say it is an outcome of frustration or failure, if we dont get things done our way, we may get angry ... but then what will be the result of anger, did anyone think abt this .. Health Problems, social moral problems yes .. but what about the time we ar wasting in anger ... According to me, there are two things a person should not be angry at, what they can help and what they cannot .... If we can do anything about the reason of anger, go ahead and do .. If feel cannot, then try to get a step ahead and change the things, But if it is out of reach, why to be angry at .........
Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose and in the right way... that is not easy.
Anger can lead to broken hearts, tearful eyes and distant relationships .. Lemme tell you a small story ....
A saint asked his disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?' Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, 'Because we lose our calm, we shout for that.' 'But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?' asked the saint. 'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you're angry?' Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint. Finally he explained, 'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.' Then the saint asked, 'What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is very small...' The saint continued, 'When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.'
The greatest remedy for anger is delay. If you feel angry just stay calm and give urself some time and then everything will be all right .. A person cannot think when his mind is in anger ... And moreover if you think that you are wasting some time of your precious life in being angry, you will never be angry with anyone .....

Matratava
There is nothing to write about the love a mother can give to her child after looking at these pictures ... The ultimate love and affection a lady can give is to her kid .. No matter she is physically ill or indisposed, she never compromise with the love and care for her child ... Truely said, "God cannot go to check and care for all the people on the earth, hence He created Mom" .. Mother's love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved .. The mother is everything .. she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness. He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.
When God thought of mother, He must have laughed with satisfaction, and framed it quickly.. so rich, so deep, so divine, so full of soul, power, and beauty....
Mom can fight with the whole world, with God, with destiny, with Illness, with physical disability but cannot compromise when it comes to her child....The pics shows the same...
Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible... And kids give nothing to their mom .. We say my Mom do not knw anything about todays life, she is so old fashioned .. that's nothing but just generation gap .. When we reach the same age we think in the same manner ....
So, I was talking abt the mother in the pic ... By any chance do you see signs of problem, disguise, or imcompletion from her face .. She feels so lucky to have two kids and a loving and caring husband ... She looks so complete ... That's actually the internal strength everyone needs in oneself to live life, to provide love to your dear ones .. That internal strength is needed to go one step ahead and do the things which others think you cannot ...... And a girl get that strength by looking at her child, by having a child, by thinking that she is a mother, by facing the difficulties in her child's life..........
That's MATRATAVA

Innocence
"Innocence - make us smile"
Kids are really smart and they know the power of latest technologies and internet, they understand the meaning of movies and what is being shown to them .. However these kids still express their views in their own way which is quite amazing, interesting and innocent ...
We asked the kids from class III to V a few questions about GHAJINI and here are the most amazing and innocent replies we got from them ....
(1) How did Aamir Khan develog such a muscular body??
Kid:- He was sufferring from memory loss, so he used to exercise and forgot that he has exercised .. and he did it all over again ...
(2) What will u tell Sanjay Singhaniya if you meet him one day?
Kid:- I will tell him that Ghajini is alive and is studying in my class. And he has changed his name to Akash ....
(3) What was the scariest part of the movie?
Kid:- The scariest part was when we came out in interval and there were so many Sanjay Singhaniyas selling pop corn....
(4) Why did it take such a long time for Aamir to find Ghajini?
Kid:- He lost his memory, so he didn't remember how to use Google and manual search took him so long .....
These answers are one more reason to smile .. Being with kids releases our tension and gives us various reasons to smile ... Kids are God's gift, a soft creation, a clean drop of water, so pure, so calm, so innocent, so true, so cuddly, so emotional... If you pass a short period of time with a kid, u will find urself away from all politics and impurities of social life ......

Music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole, flows from heaven to the soul. Music is a medium to express what you feel ... Music is your soul which remains with you in every good or bad situation of life ... If you are happy, music increases ur happiness, if u r sad, it can be ur best pal which can share your feelings ... Someone truely said "We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams.” Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and cannot remain silent...
Music relaxes ur mind and soul ... It gives strength ... It has power ... It speaks your emotions ... It shows ur innerself ... Just think of your life without music ... Music has became so important that it can be used as a therapy .... Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals of all ages. Music therapy improves the quality of life for persons who are well and meets the needs of children and adults with disabilities or illnesses.
Enjoy with me the beautiful words of George Parsons Lathrop.
Music of Growth
'Music is in all growing things;
And underneath the silky wings
Of smallest insects there is stirred
A pulse of air that must be heard;
Earth's silence lives and throbs and sings.' ...................

LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Love Makes Your Soul Crawl out from its Hiding Place"
The dictionary meaning of LOVE is -- a strong positive emotion of regard and affection
In my opinion LOVE is....
"If you luv someone because u think he/she is gorgeous, then it is not love it is infatuation
If u luv someone bcz u think u shudn't leave him/her bcz others think that u shudn't , then its nt love its compromise
If u luv someone and u think u cant live without him/her touch, then its not luv, its lust
If u luv someone bcz u cant leave him/her thinking it might hurt his feelings, then its not luv its charity
If u luv someone because u share everything with him/her, then it not luv its friendship
BUT if u feel the soul of the other person than him/her, That's love
If u get attracted to other ppl but stay wid him/her without any regrets, Thats love
If u let him go knwing he has to go but he does not wanna go, Thats love
If he leaves u and u let him go, When he comes back to you That's LOVE"
Love is the condition in which the happiness of your soul mate is essential to your own...
You really shouldn't say "I love you" unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget to do so and hence sometimes are mistaken... These small things can lead to misunderstandings and then mishappenings like a broken relationship, broken heart, sad life etc ........
The correct way to find the deepness of your love, in my opinion, is to be apart for some time ... Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire.
Love makes your life happier, ur face beautiful, make u smile always and you feel like flying with joy.. you forget everything sad and bad things in life, it fills ur life with positivity.. you tries to forget all the mishappening and u feel like life is beautiful ... Its a precious gift one can get .........................

wear a smile
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. Because of your smile, you make life more beautiful.
Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy. It happens that we are not well inside our heart and thinking of some mishappenings, but tht doesn't mean we will think abt it for long or for ever .. Every thing fades away with time, so dont waste your precious life is thinking abt all such things.. forget fast and smile once again ..
U never knw there is someone who loves your smile .. Many a times we smile cz we are happy, but sometimes in life we should smile to make ourselves happy ... The harder the conflict, the more glorious the victory. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness and love that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow. Smiling makes you feel better about yourself, even if you don't feel like it. And it always makes other people think better of you.
Someone said today "u can change your life by changing the way you think" .... and I feel its correct ... I m trying to think better now and feeling the change .....
So Now onwards i wear a smile on the face even at the hardest times of my life ....... U also try .. and u will find it easier to live life................
