FRIENDSHIP

It's not uncommon that we see people comparing life with a Large Ocean which everyone in this world has to cross.The journey consists of Peaceful breeze,fun moments,Terrible storms & what not?
Can you imagine swimming across this large ocean filled with all kinds of creatures? I am sure, you can't even imagine, leave apart crossing.What if you have a strong, wonderful ship which can help you sail across the ocean?The ship which has strength to tolerate worst storms? Journey would be a pleasure. The ship I am talking about is " 'FRIEND''SHIP' ".

Friend is a person who tolerates your worst mood
even if you are so rude,
Friend is a person who knows the Biggest reason behind your smallest tear,
who is with you in all sorts of fear,
A friend is a person with whom you can be yourself without any apprehension,
a relation, which is beyond my comprehension.

What makes Friendship so special according to me
Is the true care,
the deepest secrets to share,
As kind as a hare,
Forgiveness that's given is beyond compare,
A wish for each other that is so pure,
which will come true for sure,
And a silent promise made to be with each other forever.
A bond beyond the class, age, Society(remember krishna sudhama story? ).

But the best part of FRIENDSHIP is that we forget our ego's (which is a very big thing), Class etc & try to be for other person's needs.Probably that's why they say " A friend in need is a Friend indeed".
With Friendship still alive spreading genuine happiness all over, World is still a better place to live in.
WISH YOU A VERY HAPPY FRIENDSHIP WEEK TO ALL MY DEAREST FRIENDS.
Keep smiling.

u see, money can buy you everything except genuine happiness.
Happiness lies in small things like a friend consoling at the time of crisis, mom asking about menu when you go home after a long time, Dad asking if you want anything? etc..
So i believe in giving importance to small things & treasuring the relationships like FRIENDSHIP which gives me immense happiness.

Attitude of Gratitude

How many times have we caught ourselves complaining?
may it be for bad food at home,Traffic congestion,smaller house,longer work duration,lack of facilities,etc..
Answer you might get is "Quite Frequently".
Why is that we count more troubles than our blessings?
probably the environment we have been brought up? Or as simple as "human nature"?
Its not that we cannot change it, but we resist change.we find comfort in complaining rather than counting our blessings.
Few days ago I read a mail on Stephen Covey's 90/10 Principle: "10 % of life is What happens to you & 90 % on how you react to it".
How true. The above said problems is there for everyone, but we have found comfort in complaining rather than accepting & Changing them.I would say , If you are complaining about something then you are not aware of the outer world.
We complain about bad food but we don't know that millions of people sleep hungry not for a day but for several weeks.
We complain of lack of money( in spite of earning sufficient amount) but we are unaware of the fact that 77% of Indian's are earning just RS 30/- per day. Not just for them but for their entire family.
If we go deep searching for the reason for our behavior of complaining, we find none other ತಂ ourselves as guilty.We take our close ones to be GRANTED.
May it be our parents who take care of us every moment,
friends who support us in our decisions,
collegue who encourages to work better,
or may it be GOD who gave us this wonderful world, beautiful relations (like parents,Friends), good health, roof to protect from rain n sunshine, clothes to wear, food to eat.
Not all will be lucky to get them. WE ARE.
So lets Thank everyone who has helped us even once. Lets develop the attitude of gratitude to count our blessings every moment than to count our troubles

FATHER'S DAY

Hey Guys,
Yesterday, as any other ordinary day (infact SUNDAY), I was sleeping for a long time at my home.Early in the morning around 7( i mean,early to me) faintly i heard sound of Mom,who was watching news wid dad: " Its FATHER'S DAY, got to tell SAGAR(its me guys) about it so that he can wish u"
Then I realised , I had completely forgotten that it was Father's day.From many days it was in my mind as i am a regular user of Facebook.Well i really don't know why its been celebrated, on which date & all. I am really poor at GK(also at knowing details).
But i definitely celebrate it cause of my dad.He is very very special person in my life.Everyone says mom is first teacher.True,But then dad took over later on.He is spiritually,morally my GURU.
Whatever i am, is just because of him.Let me share some of the finest moments i spent with him.

I was in tenth then, board exams (Turning point of life as everyone says ;) ) were just 10 days away. Needless to say, exam fever was on.Upon that got infected with viral fever too.
First few days, I felt its just normal fever & I would be fine in a couple of days.But, heath got serious & I was admitted to Hospital just 5 days before the exams.There was lot of panic around, lot of questions in mind.How to face exam? What next? etc.
Well I was getting answers too from relatives,Doctor,even Ward Boys !!!
Most frequent answer I heard is " Don't worry my boy, SUPPLEMENTARY EXAM is there".
If you keep on saying something to your mind, it starts believing that. I probably would have believed those words, but Thanks to my dad who dint allow that to happen.
He never used to say BIG words as in motivational books,
He just said: " If you don't trust yourself,nobody else will.You will surely get sympathy for not performing from everyone,But you can't survive with that.So try your level best to perform"
Those words not just helped me to get well n score well but also to the lesson for life: to trust ourselves at time of crisis.

There are plenty of such examples where in i can proove that my DAD is my Greatest Inspiration.Everytime somebody asked me Who my role model was, only one person came to my mind, my DAD.He is a gem of a person. He taught me to be Humble,kind,Not to forget those who helped you, be for your nation first...
My Aim for life is to be like my dad.
Love you a lot dad.
Happy FATHER'S DAY .
