Some Quotes

-


Do not struggle against your thoughts; they are stronger than you are. If you want to be free of them, accept them.  - (The Valkyries, Paulo Coelho)


Get up, stand up, Stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, Don't give up the fight.” - Bob Marley


Never expect. Never assume. Never ask. Never demand. Just let it be, if it's meant to be... it will happen.

People will judge you by your actions, not your intentions.


Difficulties in your life do not come to destroy you, but to help you realize your hidden potential and power. Let difficulties know that you too are difficult. - Dr A P J Kalam

If you do not ask the answer is always a NO.


"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to 
follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. " - Steve Jobs

“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours – it is an amazing journey – and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.” ― Bob Moawad

"They may forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel." - Carl W. Buechner



Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer grows you.



Sometimes the smallest act of love can take up the biggest space in someone's heart.



Second chances doesn't always mean a happy ending, Sometimes, it's just another shot to end things better.


Sometimes, you gave up on someone. Not because you don't care but because they don't.


Giving up doesn't always mean you're weak. Sometimes it means you are strong and smart enough to let go and move on.


I'm strong because I know my weaknesses. I'm wise because I've been foolish. I laugh because I've known sadness.


Two things define you: Your patience when you have nothing, and your attitude when you have everything.


When you truly care for someone, their mistakes never change our feelings because it’s the mind that gets angry but the heart still cares.


"The biggest suspense of life  is that  you don't know who is 'Praying' for you  and  who is 'PLAYING' with you."~ Fats


Forget it enough to get over it, remember it enough so it doesn't happen again.



"Kill them with success and bury them with a smile."~ Anonymous

You Are More Than the Mind

-
 'The real "you" is different from those thoughts. You are reacting to every thought that visits your mind. By reacting to all of them, you are paying attention to your thoughts and feeding them, allowing them to exist. That is how a troubled mind creates a chaotic world.' This is an excerpt from a book am reading. A book which happens to be a fiction, and i didn't expect to read such a deep line in that one. It made me think, ponder upon even after days of reading the same. This is something that i learnt during Vipassana. My understanding of this is "Things keep on happening around you, whether they are good, bad or negative positive for you, completely depends on how your brain processes it, which is again dependent on what have you fed it in terms of thoughts and inputs (like reading, watching, etc).  They say, we create a version of reality in our mind, which is a product of actual happenings, our thoughts/ideas and our reactions to them. What you pay at...

An year of Metamorphosis!

-
Since the last post, life has been overhauled. It's been six months, and life is completely different now. A lot has happened in these six months, and I cannot relate to myself anymore. The person I was before April and the person I am now are two completely different human beings! Definitely, I have become more boring than earlier.  This year has been the year of firsts! Many things happened for the first time with me, and I did many new things.  Getting fired Vipassana Living in negative temperatures with basic means  Not planning anything  Noble silence for 9 days (Trust me the best time of life) Living without a phone, internet, and family  Lived at an altitude of 3500+ mtrs from sea level  Rushed mom to emergency for cardiac care Went on a trip with my Angel Welcomed a baby girl in the family. The first daughter after me! When she was born, no one in the family knew what rituals we had for a baby girl, as the ones who did all of them when I was born ar...

Tranquility with Tinyminy!

It has been more than 5 months that i wrote something, and that's true for not only this place but in general, I haven't written anything. Probably the longest i have stayed without writing. And am still sane. Wow, something to be really proud of. Guess the credit goes to two things: Another 10 day Vipassana course  My 9 month old niece. She is a saviour, as these days, most of my time goes to her playful antics.  I did my second "10 day course of Vipassana". While i was looking forward to the peace that noble silence brings, to my surprise, i was asked to do " Seva " when i joined. The seniors or the more experienced people in this field told me, that it is great that i was able to do Seva in my second course itself, however, somewhere i felt like a scapegoat. Nevertheless, the experience was amazing in more than one way!  Though i missed the complete " Noble Silence ", (when you do Seva , participants can reach out to you, for any kind of inconve...
