Dear

We met, we became friends , then destiny brought us closer ...
Two became one , until death do us depart ...

Though the journey hasn't been smooth ...
Lots of hurdles and obstacles to reach where we are ...
Now, when I look into your eyes I see my present and future with you ...
I see Hope, Love and Happiness ...

We are different like day and night,
Yet the bond that binds us is stronger than the strongest chain ...

Together, yet we fly like free birds ...
Soaring higher and higher ...

I know what you think even before you say it ...
You know my dreams even before I tell them ...

You like me just the way I am, with all my imperfections and flaws
My strengths you love
My weaknesses you happily overlook
You have made me a better person ... and still do ...

The best thing in the morning is to wake up besides you ...
and the best thing at night is to lie in your arms ...

Life was a garden of thorns with a few roses,
now with you in my life it has become a garden of lovely roses with a few thorns ...

You are the Angel that God sent from heavens
To wipe away my tears and
To make me laugh till tears come

Fights do happen and an occasional tear rolls,
yet we always make up and hug
Now thinking about them we laugh out heartily ...

You helped me up whenever I have fallen ...
I learnt from you to never give up

The most beautiful gift you have given me are our children ...
I can see You in them and them in You ...
And the best gift we can give our children is our Love

The power of E

I was wondering ...
What has made women such as Mother Theresa, Oprah Winfrey, Princess Diana or Mata Amritanandamayi so popular ?
They come from different backgrounds but they all do or did the same thing.

All have been compassionate and caring. And more, they have or had an ability to emotionally connect with the people around them - be it lepers or AIDS patients... All people longing for just one thing - LOVE.

A touch, a hug, a kiss or just the time taken to listen to the needy and showing empathy has brought a rainbow of happiness into the lives of so many people.

Interestingly, it is all women whom I have mentioned above. I don't doubt though, that there would be some men who could be as compassionate, but in the end I believe it is a woman's prerogative to be blessed with such values.

Happy New Year

I wish you all a Happy New Year 2012 !
Even more, I wish myself a Happy New Year.

Looking back at the last year ... It was a turbulent one. Lot of laughter, lot of tears, lot of happiness, lot of sadness.

The books I read last year were 'Megaliving' by Robin Sharma and '3 Mistakes of my Life' by Chetan Bhagat.

The former helped me achieve some new goals in my life ... I practised my driving, cooking, wearing of the Sari and also my blog writing.

However I let myself get hurt again and again.
It is in these times that I realize who really loves me. My family and friends are the ones who are there for me always. In this new era of facebook and twitter I may not have hundreds of friends or followers, but I must tell you ... I cherish the few that I have.

This year there is even more to do ...
My dream is to fulfil my dream ... And I shall do it !!
I will face obstacles, but I need to overcome then.

My goals should be:

* Learn to understand God better
* Take out more time for myself
* Meditate and listen more to your inner self
* Laugh more and be cheerful
* Be there more for my son and my family
* Learn to accept the fact that not everyone you love may love you
* Work hard & Party harder
* Enjoy every day and thank God for the good things in your life
* Exercise and keep an active life
* Daily ask yourself:
What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail
* Never give up hope.
* Make your talents work for you
* There are people who need you more than you think.
* Learn to play the Keyboard
* Do what you love and love what you do !!
* Dream and imagine .. what you see is what you get
* LOVE, LOVE, LOVE


This year, this day is a new chance for all of us. Let us embrace it with all our heart !!
