Happiness Voyage

Image
We convince ourselves that life will be better once we are married, have a baby, then another.Then we get frustrated because our children are not old enough, and that all will be well when they are older.Then we are frustrated because they reach adolescence and we must deal with them. Surely we’ll be happier when they grow out of the teen years.We tell ourselves our life will be better when our spouse gets his/her act together, when we have a nicer car, when we can take a vacation, when we finally retire.The truth is that there is no better time to be happy than right now.If not, then when?Your life will always be full of challenges. It is better to admit as much and to decide to be happy in spite of it all. For the longest time, it seemed that life was about to start. Real life.But there was always some obstacle along the way, an ordeal to get through, some work to be finished, some time to be given, a bill to be paid. Then life would start.I finally came to understand that those ob...

Points to Ponder

Image
No one can ruin your day without YOUR permission. Most people will be about as happy, as they decide to be. Others can stop you temporarily, but only you can do it permanently. Whatever you are willing to put up with, is exactly what you will have. Success stops when you do. When your ship comes in.... Make sure you are willing to unload it. You will never have it all together. Life is a journey...not a destination. Enjoy the trip! The biggest lie on the planet When I get what I want I will be happy. The best way to escape your problem is to solve it. I've learned that ultimately , 'takers' lose and 'givers' win. Life's precious moments don't have value, unless they are shared. If you don't start, it's certain you won't arrive. We often fear the thing we wan...

The Forest

Image
Take a walk in the forest and learn something more about yourself. 1. You're standing at the edge of a forest looking in. What do you see, how do you feel, what do you feel about what you see? 2. You walk into the forest and emerge at the other end. Here you see a field and notice a path. How many paths, if any, do you see? 3. You take one of the paths or quite possibly make your own. You notice a rose tree in the distance. There is a single rose, yet it is not like any rose you have ever seen before. It is the most beautiful rose you have ever seen! What do you do? 4. Walking along the path you stumble upon something. You turn around and notice that it's an old rusted key. What do you do? 5. Walking further, you stumble upon an old cup. What do you do? 6. It's noon and the sun is blazing hot. You come upon a crystal lake. It is mirror like and pristine. What do you do? 7. After the lake, you climb upon a hill. You can see a deep green valley, and a beautif...

Simple Warli Art

Image
I had always been fascinated by one painting which I had on my bedspread. It depicted the daily life of the rural people, almost similar to the Forest life. It looks somewhat similar to the cave paintings of early man which I had seen in certain text books. But this piece of art was very common in india on bed cover, cushion covers and even many book covers, many had this as it was simple and fascinating one. Then I found out, such paintings were called Warli paintings which basically used rice flour as a medium to make simple lines and geometric figures which looked amazing but still had simplicity in it. The myth t ha t if we u se complex colors and shape then only a piece of work would look great is proved wrong by these simple but beautiful paintings, which reflects the daily life and still look alive with all the forest activities. It is done through simple folk s ymbols drawn with bold, easy strokes with most minimal colors basically white since none is needed to draw a...

Life Explained

Image
A boat docked in a tiny Mexican fishing village. A tourist complimented the local fishermen on the quality of their fish and asked how long it took him to catch them. "Not very long." they answered in unison. "Why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" The fishermen explained that their small catches were sufficient to meet their needs and those of their families. "But what do you do with the rest of your time?" "We sleep late, fish a little, play with our children, and take siestas with our wives. In the evenings, we go into the village to see our friends, have a few drinks, play the guitar, and sing a few songs. We have a full life." The tourist interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! Yo u should start by fishing longer every day. Yo u can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat." "And after that?" "With the extra money the larger boat will brin...

Sweet like chocolate

Image
Chocolate is rich in history. For centuries, chocolate has played an vital part in the history of many countries. Historically, Chocolate has been used as both a type of currency and also as an indulgent drink affordable only to royalty. Today, chocolate is enjoyed by all in a variety of forms and continues to be an important part of many cultures. Also, the list of 'The Most Expensive Chocolates' is also mentioned, i wonder what do they add to it,that its so very expensive...maybe GEMS. Did you Know Chocolate syrup was used to represent blood in the famous 45 second shower scene in Alfred Hitchcock's movie, "Psycho" a scene which took 7 days to shoot. Once upon a time, money did grow on trees. Cocoa beans were used as currency by the Mayan and Aztec civilizations over 1400 years ago. When they had too much money to spend, they brewed the excess into hot chocolate drinks. The Swiss consume more chocolate per capita than any other nation on earth. Rumor has it th...
