Don’t you agree with me that True friendship is difficult since finding a true friend is the hardest.
” A friend is some one who understands your past,believe in your future….accepts you to-day the way you are “. Unknown
We may not realize the value of friendship until the time it is given when it is badly needed,so we have to cultivate and cherish the friendship .
Make aware to your friends how much they mean to you and how well they contribute to your happiness from your routine boring life.
Don’t ask me how to pick up a true friend or how to know,that the other person can be a good and even a true friend.
This is a difficult subject and can be discussed on another day.
The following quote is my feeling ,whenever one interacts with one’s true friends.
Friendship is a treasured gift,and every time I talk with you I feel as if I’m getting richer and richer “. Unknown
Friends can even become Besties.
True friendship is ‘Magical’ !!
“Friendship is not about whom you have known the longest,it’s about who walked into your life and said “I’m here for you” and proved it. Unknown
The true friend helps me being a counselor in times of distress ,
Can be my confidant when the situation demands,most importantly gives all the strength I need when I am the weakest at some point of time of my life.
Now you will ask me…What is the secret of sustaining this friendship ??
Certain things come to my mind,which can further the bond.
1. Be frank.Accept the drawbacks or short fall either of you may possess.
No body is perfect in this world and everybody has some story to tell and as a true friend you are willing to listen.Provide the much-needed leaning shoulder.Respect the individuality.Even if situation demands call spade a spade and explain the realities.Never thrust your opinions.When you tell the truth let the other person accept this rather than doubting and vice versa.
2. Develop the principle of ‘forget and forgive’ since we know we are never free of committing the mistakes and it’s human to do mistakes.
3.Try to recollect the fun moments or joyous moments you both had while spending time together or enjoying the jokes during your chat times.
4.Share the happiness together.
The happiness ,one can feel only when one is able to share with the other.
Remember you can never enjoy happiness all alone.
Thank you my friends for patiently reading.
Now please share your personal experience on ‘Gift of Friendship’ be on-line or off-line.

The wings of Hope carry us,soaring high above the driving winds of Life Ana Jacob
We all know that Life is not a fairytale that ends Happily ever after.
Life is composed of ups and downs.
There are several situations where we plan to the precision but when our wish is not coming true, we as humans get devastated.
And in some situations just reverse-what ever you wished can happen to your surprise.
“Life has many ways of testing a persons’ will.either by having nothing happen at all or by having everything happen all at once Paulo Coelho
Every day your life keeps you challenging at the drop of a hat ! But remember not to allow these challenges to put you down.
Never make comparisons.You don’t know the difficulties faced by the other person before he became successful.
“You aren’t going to find anybody that’s going to be successful without making a sacrifice and without perseverance.” Lou Holtz
Make best use of life,take everything that is offered to you ,because you know pretty well at the end something good is going to happen.
“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” Martin Luther King, Jr.
If you want to soar high in the life,you have to give up the things and people that weigh you down. Rashida Rowe quotes

Life is a thing of many stages and moving parts,
What we do with ease at one time of life we can hardly manage at another.
What we could not fathom doing when we were young,we find great joy in when we are old.
Like the season through which we move,life itself is a never-ending series of harvests,a different fruit for every time.
Joan D Chittister
Be thankful,
For if we did not learn a lot to-day,
At least we learned a little,
And if we did not learn a little,
At least we did not get sick,
And if we got sick,
At least we didn’t die,
So be thankful.
Gautama Buddha

Love the unlovely.
There is no greatness in you if you show your love only to the lovely .
Let your love be uniform, both to the lovely & unlovely.
Let love overlook other’s faults and shortcomings, always believe the best about them,and never lose hope for them.

“Some days are just bad days,that’s all.You have to experience sadness to know happiness,and I remind myself that not every day is going to be a good day,that’s just the way it is ! Dita Von Teese
“It is popularly believed that sadness is due to certain things that happens to us. The cause of sadness is often traced to misfortune,hardship or humiliation
In truth all sadness is from within.
Sadness is the result of our inner attitude towards outer happenings”.
Dada J P Vaswani
The reasons for sadness are many. And all of you know.
Reaction to sadness varies from person to person and depends on how sensitive the person is.
Sadness can break the person completely and even push into suicidal tendencies.
Some cry to get relief,some indulge in self harming,some manage the show by fake smile,but still many are unable to come out of the feelings.
We all should realise that nothing is permanent in this life. Change is the way of life.
Whether it is sadness or happiness it won’t last forever and comes alternatively and this is nature’s law. Every thing changes over the time and time is the greatest healer!
Whatever may be the reason for sadness…never keep the emotions inside. Remember it’s like a time bomb.
What is the solution ?
Yes solution available.
A sad person needs another person who understands him/her 100%
The sad person just needs this person on whom he/she can lean on and cry their hearts out. Believe me the relief is instant !
Dear friends,please share your thoughts.

It is not the years in your life but the life in your years that counts Adlai stevensony
We all know that Life can never be ‘Instagram Perfect’.
But still,why we all make our life miserable ?
1.Because we worry about future which is unknown.
2..We quarrel among ourselves for what happened yesterday,who is responsible etc and trying to blame others or ourselves in the process.Yesterday is past….and nothing can be done,but still we worry for the things that happened.
3. We forget to be happy today conveniently because we have something or other priorities to attend.
Things don’t happen as per our wish,not readily waiting for us on the silver platter.
Do you remember the quote”Good things come to those who wait” It is nothing but rubbish.Life is never kind and it owes us nothing.There is no such thing called ‘Happy Life’ and my point is that you have to ‘live’ in the moment and make your life ‘Happy’
“It’s not a case of finding the meaning of the moments,but giving the moments meaning”. Steven Redhe
This life is our own and it resonates how you want it to live.If you want it to be miserable ..it’s the way it’s going to be for you.
“you can frame a moment,But you can’t frame life” Armin Houman
‘Hope’ is good,no doubt it sustains us but then we should make attempts to make that hope a reality by living in the ‘moment’
Then how not to feel miserable in life ? My thoughts are simple.
1.Stop over thinking.
2.Stop judging others.
3.Remember,nothing under your control.Just move along the flow
4.Avoid the mentality of perfectionist.
5.Stop criticizing.You know only part of the story.
6.Avoid negative thoughts .
7.Most importantly stop comparing yourself.

The other day one of our exceptionally brilliant readers wondered, how the time is running so fast,we are in the middle of January,still we are dreaming….as if we celebrated new year just yesterday…is this not scarring? Life is moving so fast, refusing to wait !
I felt … it’s true
And shortly…the spring will run into summer and Summer chasing Fall and Fall merging with Winter in no time and soon we celebrate Christmas and eagerly waiting for the safe delivery of 2020 and in between many will be in touch with the Creator…
Then the thought of why can’t we live longer lingered in my mind!
Yes.Why not ?
All of you know life is awesome !
If you ask ,each one gives their own many reasons as to why they love to live longer.Very few say they want to die earlier.
Don’t you think there is so much of unfulfilled wishes to be full filled?
There is so much to do,so much to see,so much to enjoy,so much to learn,so much to discuss,so many new People to meet,new friends,new thoughts,new experiences….
…..oh my life ! My dear life…..and you think just 70-80 yrs of life is sufficient ?
There won’t be negative feelings or sadness or sorrow if one were to live forever.Of course ones health should be good,but this is possible as science is advancing and most probably in 2100 death can be delayed indefinitely.
But why you don’t want to die ?
It’s very simple my friend.Death means, all your taste for enjoying the good life gone.You miss the beauty of universe.You miss your near and dear.you miss unfinished jobs.you miss, loving your sweetheart.
OK.But Why do you wish to live forever ?
I have an answer.
Modern age is better than Iron age.Iron age was better than bronze age.Bronze age was better than stone age.
As things become better and better ,we wish to live longer.We starts inventing things where in death can be delayed.As technology advances,they day may not be far,where death can become optional.
What is the present scenario ?
If you want to live longer – watch this clip. ( 3 minute Video )

“Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.” ― Mark Twain
I am not talking of the personality disorder which we come across in the Medical World…..I am talking about the normal,perfect down to earth gentlemen and gentlewomen, who invariably have two faces,sometimes many faces ( multifaceted indeed! )
“Everyone has two faces but often we see only one side of them,so never judge anyone by their looks,because ,truth might surprise you” ! ‘unknown’
Have you any time seriously gazed your soul ?
I think we are all not just actors but great actors.Some examples,
1.You agree with me that wives hide (secrets) things from husbands, and husbands hide things from wives,but each will be talking to other sweetly and kindly.
2.All Men talk differently when they are with wives,and when the wives are not around.(men there… ..you know what I mean )
3. We preach our kids,but practice quite opposite.
4.Young boys and girls as lovers,constantly lie to each other which suits the situation.
5.We shout at our children and wives for no fault of theirs,but show sweet face to the boss,in spite of getting abused.
6.Married men ,when they come across a single woman, try,to attract her attention,but when wives are with them…it is a different behavior !
7.Our offline behavior is in contrast to our online behavior.You may be a beggar in real life ,but on social media you flaunt all your richness from nowhere !
8. You can see ,Professional child kidnapper/killer is a dedicated father to his kids.
I can go on and on…..
We all wear masks.
Let us be frank.And that is the way of life ! And we have to live that life if we want to survive in this wretched world.
And the worst part,you know…..even with God we play our duality !
“There’s a duality of a guy calling on God: ‘Where are you when I need you’ and the,at the same time .’God helps those who helps themselves.’…I think that contradiction does exist in all of us ,those of faith and those who profess to have no faith. ‘JoeCornahan’
Now that we realized that all of us have two faces( dual personalities)….now it becomes even more scary.
“It’s not about who’s real to your face,
It’s about who’s real behind your back” unknown
So be busy checking your back frequently !
And wishing and praying that, let 2019 bring just the single and original face of ours all the time !

When you make tough choices,try to imagine if you will regret it in 10 years ‘pinterest’
Life is a series of choices.The choices we make now affect the options
avaiable for the next round of choices.– T.J.Taylor
You say it’s your life,therefore your decisions,but are you aware that your
choices will not affect only you,but also those around you,who care and
love you dearly even if you aren’t aware of that.So make the right decision
and choices in life to make not only yourself proud and happy but also

Destiny…..I believe, it is because of our thoughts
Thought process is the cause & Effect of which is Destiny.
I am sure you would have never given a thought or two about this !
“Be careful of your thoughts, for your thoughts become your words.
Be careful of your words, for your words become your actions.
Be careful of your actions, for your actions become your habits.
Be careful of your habits, for your habits become your character“.
Be careful of your character, for your character becomes your destiny.
– Chinese proverb, author unknown
Once you are aware of the destiny...take the challenge
“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and
willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that
nothing has happened or in saying that we are not ready. The challenge will not
wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide
whether or not to accept our destiny.”
– Paulo Coelho, Quotes from The Devil and Miss Prym
Now coming to Fate……
Fate is a power that some people believe controls and decides everything that happens,in a way that cannot be prevented or changed.
Collins Dictionary
“Fate doesn’t ask you what you want,fate knows what is best,even if you don’t know”
‘Quotegram.com’
“Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fatebrings you together, but do so with all your heart”.Marcus Aurelius

There is a time for departure even when there’s no certain place to go. Tennessee Williams
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
―Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
Don’t you agree that,We have to leave things to the decision of the Almighty instead of questioning His wisdom ?
“What have you lost that you cry for?
What did you bring, that you have lost?
What did you create that was destroyed?
What you have taken has been from here, what you gave has been given here.
What belongs to you today belonged to someone yesterday and will be someone else’s tomorrow.
Change is the law of the universe”.
Bhagavad-Gita
What has to happen will happen for good or bad and let us accept things with folded hands by surrendering to His wishes. And His Wishes can not be explained or questioned or analyzed as to the logic. I mean if something bad/good happening……just leave things to His wisdom.
If you think I am crazy….it’s OK

“I know that I know nothing” Socrates
Philosophy derives from Two Greek words,Philos (love) & Sophia(wisdom).
Philosophy sheds light on the causes of various situations happening in this world and when you start asking questions in the form of ‘Why’…. remember,you start thinking like a philosopher.
“An unexamined life is not worth living” Socrates
By celebrating World Philosophy Day each year, on the third Thursday of November,UNESCO underlines the enduring value of philosophy for the development of human thought, for each culture and for each individual
“Philosophy is an inspiring discipline as well as an everyday practice that can transform societies. By enabling us to discover the diversity of the intellectual currents in the world, philosophy stimulates intercultural dialogue. By awakening minds to the exercise of thinking and the reasoned confrontation of opinions, philosophy helps to build a more tolerant, more respectful society. For UNESCO, it is also the way to unleash humanity’s creative potential and generate new ideas. Philosophy creates the intellectual conditions for change, sustainable development and peace. ”

Oh ! My Refrigerator !
Have you ever thought of giving your fridge some official leave ? I know you wouldn’t and you dare not ,Because Fridge is one item,which never supposed to ask rest or leave.
When was the last time you cleaned your Fridge ?
How is modern life possible without refrigerator in the kitchen ? It this not part of our life ?
But strangely, all of us take this one appliance for granted.And don’t even give a glance !
But you become restless once you realize that it failed to work or you are getting an unpleasant odor ,the moment you open its door.
So maintenance of our beloved refrigerator is important
No body is sure why November 15 th is selected every year( Some say Whirlpool started this ),but one way it is good,since Thanksgiving Day is going to come shortly.
You need not wait till next November 2019 to clean again,it is good if you clean it once in 3 months.
Why should you care to clean the refrigerator ?

Every one has to face some problem or other.
Describing somebody that ‘the fellow is born with silver spoon’ is utter rubbish.
Everybody has to undergo suffering.
Whether the person suffers from cancer or just mild fever,or any other reason doesn’t matter.
Whether the person is rich or poor,doesn’t matter.
Good or bad doesn’t matter.
Whether the person is pious or unholy ,doesn’t matter.
Whether the person is criminal or law-abiding doesn’t matter.
Whether the person is moral or immoral doesn’t matter.
Whether a new born suffers or a 100+ old person suffers doesn’t matter.
I can go on and on….
The point I am trying to stress is ,there is no escape from suffering once you are born.
The only difference is , some suffer more and some suffer less.
Again I don’t have an answer.
Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It’s the transition that’s troublesome. Isaac Asimov
When one suffers,the first question one puts invariable is “Oh God ! why me ?” as if one is pure (at heart on par with Almighty), and rest of the population deserves to suffer.
Remember there are others in this world,whose suffering is more than yours.
Instead,why can’t one boldly say ” why not me ?”
By saying so, Are we not gaining confidence in ourselves to face the eventuality ?
To be frank, why should one get exemption from suffering in one’s life ?
Is this not God’s way of telling us to be
Brave,
Develop courage,
Search for solutions( inventions,science etc)
Improve inner strength,
Understand the meaning of life ( philosophy),
Know the value of time.
So we are thankful to the Almighty for giving us an opportunity to survive and gain strength from sufferings.
So our thoughts should be

“We are like children building a sand castle.
We embellish it with beautiful shells, bits of driftwood, and pieces of coloured glass.
The castle is ours, off limits to others. We’re willing to attack if others threaten to hurt it.
Yet despite all our attachment, we know that the tide will inevitably come in and sweep the sand castle away.
The trick is to enjoy it fully but without clinging, and when the time comes, let it dissolve back into the sea.”
Pema Chodron

Built a perfect house in a perfect town
Dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down
We held on tight like hungry lovers
Watched the day break from beneath the covers
Had to know for sure what it’s all about
Oh, this should be easy
Oh, just tell me we’re happy
Just building castles in the sand
I saw the naked light and it burned my eyes
Couldn’t look away no matter how I tried
I watched you explode when you think it’s over
And I burst in comin’ like a supernova
Had to track you down, had to find you out
Oh, this should be easy
Oh, just tell me we’re happy
Just building castles in the sand
And tides roll in, and waves get closer
The night was over
But we get stronger every time
We build our castles in the sand
Built a perfect house in perfect town
Dreamt a perfect dream and it all fell down
Oh, just tell me we’re happy,
Just building castles in the sand
Just building castles in the sand
Oh, just building castles in the sand
Just building castles in the sand

You can throw your hands up and enjoy the ride.

United we stand . Many times we come across funny coincidences but fail to notice..As you see in the above photo, both the lady and the tall gentleman probably trying to cross the road , concentrating the oncoming traffic.Both of them have their right hand kept on the waist ( the position one usually keeps, if one has backache ). Not only that, as you observe even the hand position and finger directions are also similar !
One God, many faces. One family, many races. One truth, many paths. One heart, many complexions. One light, many reflections. One world, many imperfections. ONE. We are all one, But many.” - Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
As you are busy with fast paced life , you are left with lots of tension,anxiety resulting in stress.you start thinking as if all the problems happening to you only.
Just relax.All of are undergoing the same, at one time or the other.You can neither run away from the problems, nor start dreaming of positive thoughts,The two popular advices..easier said than followed…
Just listen to the quotes by unknown and known wise souls.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If a problem cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?
Worries and tensions are like birds , We cannot stop them from flying near us, But we can certainly stop them from making a nest in our mind.
The tension you feel from one person may be the tension you are causing for another.
Worrying does not take away tomorrow’s troubles. It takes away today’s peace.
Stress is the trash of modern life we all generate it, but if you don’t dispose of it properly, it will pile up and overtake your life.
Maturity is achieved when a person accepts life as full of tension. – Joshua L. Liebman
Stress is caused by being ‘here’ but wanting to be ‘there.’
– Eckhart Tolle
How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then to rest afterward.
– Spanish proverb

1.Keep Smiling ( In other words Be Happy ).
Remember Bob Marleys song Don’t worry ,be happy ?
2.Think Positively ( in other words Lift yourself )
Both according to me are Myths.
Now let us analyse these two in the Real Life
Keep Smiling & Be Happy :
Happiness is a kind of Magnet, we get attracted .
we are used to believe that Happiness is achieved when we get things what we wished for and one can see the smile on our faces.
How long the happiness stays ? One minute,one day,one month,one year or through out our life ?
The demand for happiness is never ending.And the irony is ,you cann’t be happy all the time, since your wishes are unending.
Just think that
1.We can not control our thoughts,created at the time of unplesant happenings in our life.
2.You cann’t pretend to be happy when the results are not as per your plans.
3.What ever happens to you for whatever reason….You & I know that it’s only time being and life goes on with newer challenges to face.
4.When you are unhappy, consciously( outer world) you may give broad smile to others,but you cann’t defeat the thought of unhappiness,since discontent at subconscious ( inner world ) level is waiting to exploit the situation to further sadness..
5.Happily ever after happens only in ‘Fairy tales’ and in ‘Reel Life’ (Hollywood,Bollywood) rather than in ‘Real Life ‘
My take is ….. If you are Unhappy,Accept it,bear it and simply move on , rather than keeping the Fake Smile or acting brave etc.
Think Positively:
It is the single most influencing stuff ,storming the entire world and 21 century version of ‘Be happy’ model.
Think positively – is a kind of ‘Reassuring’ yourself that nothing is going to be wrong and the problems get solved themselves.Nothing more dangerous than this attitutde.
Remember your problem is yours alone,it is going to be there,and mere positive thinking not going to help and you alone have to solve the problem to get peace of mind.
Inspiration-Rebecca Hass
So your mindset is more powerful than the routine ‘Be positive’ psyche. It is OK not to be positive at times,since the situation you are facing not necessary end in happiness.
My take is…..
If you have time and patience you can go through this link and realize why positive thinking is a waste of time and not practicle……… Don’t miss reading Steve Neale tells about the scandal of ‘Positive Thinking’
