Let there be light!!

This picture is from one of the go laucher themes, i fell for it the moment I saw it, I tweaked it a bit according to my thought today {which was, let there be light :)  }

I pray to lord to reveal what is hidden from my sight, but which I should know to fullfill the commetment that I made to him and have forgotten.I read somwhere that, when we are born, god tells us everything that we need to know, he reveals all the mysteries, all the intracacies of life...and then he puts a finger on our lips and presses it hard so that we keep quite and let those mysteries reveal themselves while we are on earth......and that's why we have a depression on our upper lip.....its a sign/constant reminder of the fact that he has told us everthing and has promised to be with us no matter what, and we have to be patient and when in trouble, we have to be calm, quite, and connect with our inner self to seek answers that he has already told us.

All the world's a stage...



I don't know if anyone of you out there has ever experienced this or not , but I  have had such experiences...when people just forget all the beautiful times you have shared, all the fun, the giggles, tickles, senseless talks,sharing, caring, and many other precious moments and they just take the leap and move ahead, away from you......many times its because of ego but at times deflection (as my husband says) plays a bigger role.
 
For me , I don't judge people.....nor i say , i will give you "1 more" chance, because who I am i to say that.....I am just playing my part without judging, commenting on others. All I say is - Forgive people, have a bigger heart...it will make you a bigger , contended person.

I really like this passage from Shakespeare's As You Like It, 1600, it tells us about the reality of life:

JAQUES:
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

Hot and humid

I can't tell you how much it pains me to be just confined to indoors...its too hot outside and I don't can't be out in this scorching heat, and as you know I like to spend my time outside, in my garden, tending to it but lately its has been so hot that if you try to go out, you will surely get heat exhaustion and dehydration, and the repercussions of it....ewww

Meanwhile my weekends are gloomy...I spend my days inside, drinking a lot of water, drawing stuff, and taking care of laundry and so on, the list is long :)

Be what you are!!

Please pardon my french in this post but at times you have to speak what you think (not all the times however -;) ) It really doesn't matter how beautiful you are, or how attractive you look, or whether you the center of attraction or not, what matters is how you make people feel, how comfortable they are around you, how much you appreciate people around you. Just wear you smile everyday when you get ready for the day and you will see how magic happens around you.
We all have gone through the stage in our life when we are  teens and worried about our looks, we all face that emotional and mental pressure when we compete with our own invisible perceptions about our looks, our life....and I thank god for the choices that I made because they made me what I am today and I am proud of that.
So next time when you feel bogged down like a sack of rice, just remember, you have your smile, calm and composed thing on your shoulders and your kind heart and that's what you really need to overcome any complexity in life

DIY, wall affirmations

I am a positive person and I believe in affirmations...and I believe that when you affirm something and you see that affirmation everyday...it has a positive effect and, seeing is believing, and believing is achieving...this Sunday I made wall affirmation for my bedroom....here's a sneak peek..















 We got this beautiful painting from Zanskar.com, its was for the first time that I ordered something online, normally I dont go for it, but it was a good experience, not a bad deal :)

I am naughty, I am nice

I am naught, I am nice, I am fire , I am ice.


hmmm...todays confession seemed bit difficult for me to confess, however I am coming clean with utmost honesty..after all thing is is my blog and I can just be myself without getting too much conscious :O

Well I don't like authority at all,I just can't take it man... when someone speaks to me with authority, I go all crazy and I get revengeful, I know I know that's nasty, I can't say whether its right or wrong but yes I believe that there is a certain way to put forward your thoughts and when you don't know someone its better to convey your thoughts in a more polite manner rather than showing your supremacy. I am keeping it simple, short and sweet ;)

Bit of here and there...

So, what's happening?? well for me, I am eagerly waiting for weekend and actually counting days, 3 more days...lets not get into that...ok...let me tell you why I love weekends, Its because I love to spent time at home, lying lazily, reading a book, chip here and a tuck there, decorating my home, having breakfast with my husband, going out for shopping together. By the end of Friday evening, I am all tired and the weekend is like giving a plant a glass full of water, like a bit of sunshine. past weekend was full of activity, I enrolled for Spanish language, we had a late night party in our neighbourhood and we danced to the tune of "I have got time of my life" Dirty dancing, it was so much fun. I really like that movie and the dance is simply amazing and the tune is still at the back of my mind, ahh...what a lovely weekend it was :D.

Something new

Well...for quite some time I was busy with routine, home, office, office work, house hold chores.....running round round in circles.....trying to be a good home maker, a better wife, a better resource for my organisation in office....following this routine day in and out.....phew.....then sometimes I used to wonder, what am I doing for myself ??? What am i doing to nourish my soul, what is going on ??  Well this weekend my husband told me to join the language course for spanish which I had pursued earlier (3 years back) and then left it midway.....ohh please I wont play that blame game you know, I wont deflect on anyone else....It was my will, my enthu that died out and I left my course mid way.....so what...we can start once again afresh....I had completed my basic certificate course in Spanish....and now I havei joined for level 1. It really felt great, i attended my first class last Saturday.so now my weekends are going to be great as this is going to be a weekend thing and I am so excited. Lets not be so hasty but I am planning to learn french, german, as well once I am done with spanish.

So currently on my mind : uno, dos, tres..... :D

OuTSiDE InSiDe




I am into a lot of introspection nowadays and when I discussed this with one of my friends, she told me that "after fruition, the seeds goes back to the deepest darkest core of the earth" , well i like the thought and I understood the reason why I was getting into shell and more in connect with my self , thanks friend, thanks for enlightening me.

Solitude, well I think solitude is also important in life, it takes you closer to yourself  it makes you to connect with your true self and I will suggest that you should always take some time out for yourself, to listen to your heart, your soul, trust me you won't be disappointed, and each one of us has that capability of transforming our lives if only we know what we want from life, if we understand our deepest darkest fears, anxieties, and desires. There is always a reason behind our every fear/anxiety, there isn't smoke without fire :)  .  Coming back to the topic I started with...yes we all go through some many stressors in our daily routine, we get all worked up, we wince, we whine, we feel like hitting our bosses (at times ;)) and when we get home, our mood is all rotten, we feel like talking to no one but just lie down in silence, playing the victim that we are so good at, but have you every wondered in all this, who tends to suffer?? who is the actual innocent victim?? yes its our family, they don't even have a clue what we went through, so my question is: why should they suffer, why should we vent out on them, they did nothing, they were not in the office being bossy, they never gave you extra pile of papers to work upon, so why should they suffer, why should our home pay a price of something that happened outside.

This is the thing that I try to keep in mind (errr...I too forget at time) and that's why when i reach home after a really bad day, I take a moment outside, I remove an imaginary turban of worries, negative impression, frustration that were accumulated over the day time in my head and I throw it outside so that when my loved one opens the door for me, he sees a happy, calm, and composed Supreet,  Supreet that is filled with happiness and joy to be back home, back to the sanctuary  where we just love, eat, pray and introspect.

*PS: and if you forget to take that imaginary turban and you enter your home, don't worry we have something else at home to take care of that, we will discuss that in a separate post :)

Mystery of life

Currently I am reading "The book of woman" by Osho, I read a touching story which I would like to share

"A man was purchasing a christmas present for his son, man was a well known mathamatician, so the shopkeeper brought out a jigsaw puzzle. The mathamatician tried and tried, and tried, and started perspiring, it was akward, everybody was looking at him, the shopkeeper, the salesman, the customers, he was not able to bring the puzzle to a solution, finally he dropped the idea and shouted at the shopkeeper, "I am a mathamatician and if I cant solve this puzzle, how do ya think my small boy will be able to?".

The shopkeeper replied, it is made in such a way that nobody can solve it, the mathamatician asked, but why is it made in such a way??  Shopkeeper replied "so that a boy from the beginning starts learning that everything in life cannot be solved, cannot be understood"

At times we are too much focused in solving life's mysteries that we pay no attention to the beautiful things that are around us, we become frustated over stuff that is beyond our control, we try to reason everything in life, we forget that certain things just are, they cant be reasoned. Let me ask you this question, "have you ever seen air?? Have you ever questioned why our heart and lungs work involuntary(without our control)we are so used to it that our heart beats so many times in a day and we are completely unware of it, we are busy in our chores, our lungs expand and deflate so many times without our concious awareness of the fact, so like this, there are other things in life which can't be controlled or reasoned.

Just live your life happily and joyfully, try to be good and try to enjoy what you have right now...,,

You will always be missed

You were a guiding star, a teacher, a comforter, a friend, with a mind full of colorful stories,of times that seemed to be like in fairy tales, knowledge that seemed to be profound, you had eyes that had seen so much pain and yet you spoke of joys of life, your wrinkled skin had glistened in thousands of sun shines. And above all you had a heart full of love and compassion.

You will always be missed beejee. Rest in peace!!
Dedicated to my grandmother(beejee) who left for heavenly abode on 04/30/2013.
