Nostalgic March...............

March is the month of Nostalgia...

..it is pregnant with many sweet n sour memories ....years back , in my school- College days ( we were in Malampuzha those days )this was the time we made visits to most of our friends home for the sake of companied studies , we had discussions abt everything in the universe except our subject of studies...the most missing things are the BIG Mango Tree in the Backyards of Archana's Home , where we used to sit for studies...n visit to Shubha's home- she was staying with her grand ma, we had to cross so many paddy fields to reach her place , really scenic, i don knw where is she now...( Shubhu , if u happened to read this blog , Miss U a lot dear n love you sooooo much!)

Mmmm! The summer rain in the evenings brought so many varieties of Mango - fruits to us ... and among the kidos, Subhash n Arun were the smartest Mango - Pickers those days..... but i was always alone as there were no girls in that age group... yea i think , it was a Blessing to me as this made me to go close to the nature & to myself(i'm not saying this from the periphery)... My main hobbies of those days were to watch the birds who came to eat the fruits of the Indian Banyan Tree in my home- Qtrs, listening to the music of rain ( i love to watch n walk in the rain ..)talking to myself n day dreaming ....!!

On my way to school, there were soooo many Kanikkonna (The Golden Shower Tree - Cassia fistula ) with full of yellow flowers , this (March- April ) is the season of its blooming...in the evenings , when we 're returning from the school , the road was filled with the yellow Petals .... it was like the nature had made a beautiful carpet with yellow-flowers for us , the kids..... Kanikkonna flowers always kindle me with my childhood memories .....

I know, gone are the days will never come back , can never be reproduced like flowing water in the river .... but the memories are evergreen, can be chewed at any time .......

Finding Life's Direction.......!!

Yeaa ,this's the answer to my last post.....!

Yesterday, i was wondering abt whts happening with me...and a few minutes ago got a mail from Deepa which contained extracts from a talk by H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankarji...

"..A river needs two banks to flow. The difference between flood and a flowing river is water flows regulated in a direction in a river. During floods the water is muddled and has no direction. Similarly, the energy in our life needs some direction to flow. If you don't give direction, it is all confusion. Today most of the people are in confusion because there is no direction in life. When you are happy, there is so much of life energy in you; but when this life energy doesn’t know where to go, how to go, it gets stuck. When it stagnates, it rots! Just like how the water has to keep flowing, in the same way, life has to keep moving.

For life energy to move in a direction, commitment is essential. Life runs
with commitment. If you observe every small thing or big thing in life, it
goes with certain commitment. A student takes admission in a school or
college with a commitment. You go to a doctor with a commitment saying that
you are going to take the medication or listen to whatever the doctor says,
right? The banks work on commitment. Government works on commitment.
Needless to say, a family runs on commitment: mother is committed to the
child, child is committed to the parents, husband is committed to wife, and
wife is committed to husband. Whether it is love or business or friendship
or at work or any area of life you take, there is commitment, isn’t it?

What would really irritate you is non-commitment. If you just observe, you expect some commitment from someone and when they don’t do it, you get upset. Or when someone doesn’t keep up his or her commitment, you get upset.
Commitment is essential in life. You cannot stand someone who does not commit, but see how much commitment have you taken in your life .Of course our commitment is proportional to what we have, our power, our capacity or capability. If you are committed to taking care of your family, that much capacity or power you gain. If your commitment is for the community, you
will get that much energy, joy, that much power..." H H Sri Sri Ravisankar

Joy Guru Dev! Instant answer ! Na?

Whats happening ????!!!!!

Hmmm... after a long time i'm writing something about me...Yeaa, like soo many ,to me too Life has become so Mechanical !!!.. same routine ...from waking up in the morning,doing something before going to work....again doing something before going to bed...!!in Malayalam -my mothertongue, i could say "orutharam kaattikkoottal..." but i could say,the approach to life has changed ..atleast i could identify that i'm not doing something productive, ....its like me too flowing along with the current which has no specific destination.....
The Divine has created me( like all of Us) with the immense treasure of everything , but (i'm) not using anything...its true that something has wired wrongly somewhere...(still trying to find it out.. )Yea,its very easy to preach something but very difficult to practice...thats what i'm experiencing these days.... struggling to place everything on Track..but i can say onething for sure guys, Everything will be on Track very soooooonnn( as nothing is constant in this Universe , changes are inevitable ).......!!!Lol!!!!
