Thought for the day

This blog is a list of reflections I have each day. I have even put some reflections of others that has inspired me. Thoughts about simple things like Happiness, Life, Love et la. which is right before us, yet so difficult to find.Looking at everything with an eye of a child helps a lot. Reminding us always that we are never too old to learn. All we need is the right attitude.

Solitude Vs Renunciation


I always kind of enjoy solitude, when I am alone is the best time for me to think and sort out my priorities.... Not all of us may be lucky to get time alone in these days of madness and hurry. But those lucky few who can get an hour to themselves daily, I believe can be very serene.


But should solitude turn into renunciation. People leave their homes and join Monastries, they live in the mountains far from human habitation......do you think these people can completely detatch themselves from the world?.... do you think that was God's purpose for us on earth?


I atleast beg to differ, I believe that Gods mission for us here on earth is - to be a part of a society and do our best to be productive and useful to others.


Or more precisely, I think the most important thing is for eachone to find what Gods mission is for himself/herself, and implementing it in the best possible way.

Better ask

It has often happened to me, when I do not understand something I end up just pretending I know. Most of the times I end up making a fool of myself. It is always better to ask if you are ignorant rather than pretend.

Persevere

You may have tried many a times and failed...dont give up. Try different ways of doing the same thing. For a person who perseveres, success is just round the corner.

Satisfaction

Most people are never satisfied. Each person should ask themselves -" Is it because I am deficient in any thing? or can't I see what I already have? or do the people around me have more than I do?". I believe God never gives everything to everyone. So if I am deficient in something, I surely am blessed with abundance of something else.
