Hardest Tasks

“The three hardest tasks in the world are neither physical feats nor intellectual achievements, but moral acts: to return love for hate, to include the excluded, and to say, "I was wrong.” 


― Sydney J. Harris, Pieces Of Eight

Between you and God

"People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway
If you are kind,people may accuse you of  ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness,people may feel jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world best you have and it may never be enough.Give your best anyway.
For you see ,in the end , it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."

-Mother Teresa

All of a Sudden

All of a sudden 
On my bike… way back from dinner…
The sky looked clear and light cold breeze was kissing my face,
My friends and I were enjoying the drive with the chatter,
I felt something wet on my face,
A drop!
I thought someone just spit ahead of me ,
Feeling annoyed and irritated, I was looking for the vehicle and direction from which it came.
And all of a sudden the drops multiplied, For a second I was furious 
But then I realized Yes, That was the RAIN!

All of a sudden it started raining so heavily, 
I covered myself with the hood attached on my shirt,
The rain drops were smacking, 
I could not see what is coming in front,
I tried protecting with one hand but still the drops somehow reached my eyes.
I slowed down so that it’s easy to apply brake 
I slowed down so that it’s easy to see what’s coming in front.
My house was near and I wished reaching soon,
And all parts of the roads were wet;
Water running down hither and thither,
All of a sudden, I started feeling that my vehicle was losing grip, And I slowed down more.
Got drenched from top to bottom hoping my mobile would work when I get down,

I started feeling cold thinking of the little warmth, If my girlfriend would have been there;
Somehow reached home fully drenched, 
Expecting my mom to open the door with a towel in hand.
With melancholy, I found the keys from my wallet and opened the door myself,
Removed my wet shoes and socks outside the door and entered my home, 
Came out again, thinking of someone taking it in my absence.
Went inside the room, dripping water from my clothes all over the floor, took a towel and dried myself.
Expecting my mom, giving me a boiled glass of water so that I do not get cold.
With a somber expression took a vessel, filled with water and headed towards the stove to boil it and just realized that gas cylinder just got empty a day before.

Helplessly with changed clothes I went to the balcony, again the same cold breeze came kissing my face.
With Night getting more dark, Clouds Thundering more and more with rain.
And all of a sudden a machine clashing sound took my attention towards the road opposite to the building.
A couple on the bike got down and ran towards our building for shelter but that heartless watchman didn’t allow them.
Without wasting a minute they ran towards a tree. That guy removed his jacket and both of them tried to hid under that jacket.
Trying to stay away from the rain drops and getting warmth as much as possible they got more close and stood waiting for the rain to stop.
Just beside that couple a mother was standing hugging his son, covering his head with her saree. Rubbing his hands and back again and again for the warmth.

And all of a sudden the door bell rung at my home, Thinking of who the person will be at this odd time in this heavy rain.

I opened the door and I smiled. :)

Get up when you fall

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but 

in rising every time we fall. 

When i was younger, I used to ski and i always prided myself on not falling, To me it was successful day, if i didn't wipe out . That's just common sense right? Yes and No. I wasn't taking  any chances or risks. I wasn't hurting myself, but i also wasn't improving my skills. I think it's like that in life You can't live you life encased in a bubble.You need to take chances, and risks , an step out on that proverbial limb. Sometimes you're going to be successful, and sometimes you're not. The thing is your success is not or should not be measured on of you fail. It should be measured by how you react to that failure. Do you give up and never try again. or do you much like the phoenix, rise up fro the ashes, stronger and ready to try again.
Heck, you may not rise up stronger - that's okay, what matters is that you keep rising. keep getting up and keep trying, over and over again. That is the way to live your life.

Life is all about perspective

If you are uncomfortable with the way things are, Re-frame it . Even something huge can  look really small. Life is all about perspective.
-Hrithik Roshan

We cannot fast forward time to know if its worth it .Trust your heart and hope everything turns right.

New Friends

Old friends pass away, new friends appear. It is just like the days. An old day passes, a new day arrives. The important thing is to make it meaningful: a meaningful friend - or a meaningful day.
- Dalai Lama


Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us. Let's not be afraid to receive each day's surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy It will open a new place in our hearts, a place where we can welcome new friends and celebrate more fully our shared humanity.
- Henri Nouwen


Each and Every day is a new beginning. 
Some times there are some situations on which you cannot decide right or wrong. We always thinks we are the right on what we have understood , at such times a person who is neutral to both is needed for right decision.A person whom you don't know much but you feel he might be correct. A person who doesn't think similar to you. A person who can think matured and to get so many qualities from one person is very difficult.So why need one person,  take opinion from many and let the decision be yours.

Get to know more people ,Make new friends share your feelings  with them and feel your life very light.

The best things in life are free

It is far too often that we seek material rewards that cost money. There are wonderful things in life that are free. A hug, a kiss, a walk, the sunlight, the sun set, good memories – these things can make you smile. Do not underestimate them or forget that they exist. Find time to appreciate these gifts and place value in them because these things, as little as they may be, can make life extremely fulfilling if you know what they’re worth.
I’ve decided to make this week better than last, all because I know I have that choice and I deserve it. People can always say that it’s easier said than done but I have faith and I believe that things will get better; that my life will get better and that all I need to do is to make it better.
I have made my choice. I ask you to do the same. Make your choice and choose to be happy!.

You have the power and the time to shape your life.You have a choice to make that difference. Use it wisely.

Become who you are

It's okay to let some things go :You need to understand that none of us are playing with marked cards; sometimes we win and sometimes we lose – life always finds its balance.  Don’t expect to get back everything you give, don’t expect recognition for all your efforts, and don’t expect your genius to be instantly discovered or your love to be understood by everyone.  As you live and experience things, you must recognize what works and what doesn’t, what belongs and what doesn’t, and then let things go when you know you should.  Not out of pride, inability, or arrogance, but simply because not everything is supposed to fit into your life.  Close the door, change the record, clean the house, get rid of the dust.  Stop being who you were so you can become who you are.

Own Unique War

We are all in this together: Nobody has it easy, we all have issues.  When you look at a person, any person, remember that everyone has a story.  Everyone has gone through something that has changed them, and forced them to grow.  Every passing face on the street represents a story every bit as compelling and complicated as yours.  You will never know exactly what they are going through, and they will never know exactly what you are going through.  We are all fighting our own unique war.  But we are fighting through it simultaneously, together.

-Marc and Angel Hack Life

Tough times are necessary

Tough time help us grow: We work hard to disown the parts of our lives that were painful, difficult, or sad. But just as we can’t rip chapters out of a book and expect the story to still make sense, so we cannot rip past chapters out of our lives and expect our lives to still make sense. Keep every chapter of your life intact, and keep on turning the pages. Sooner or later you’ll get to a page that brings it all together and you’ll suddenly understand why every page and chapter before it was needed.

Smile When You Can

There are reasons to smile all around you : A teenage girl blushed when I caught her playfully tickling her boyfriend as he looked for a book in the library – I smiled.  A middle aged man got down on his knees and lovingly scratched his dog behind the ears as they waited to cross the street – I smiled.  A little girl skipped in bright white shoes that were obviously new, happily kicking her feet far out in front of her to admire them – I smiled.  On days when you don’t have much in your life to smile about, watch those who do and you'll smile too.

Memories

I think the only reason everyone holds on to memories so tightly is because memories
are the only things that don't change when everything and everyone else does.

As Everyone says "Things End but memories last forever"

Make Mistakes

-Never be afraid of mistakes.A mistake is not a failure.Mistakes can make you better, smarter and faster, if you utilize them properly.
-Discover the power of making mistake.
-If you want to succeed, triple the amount of mistakes that you make.
-"A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new"
