On this day, God wants you to know...

this days I am quite hooked on to the facebook, like many other everyday mailers, I subscribed to this:

On this day, God wants you to know...
... that today you have a cause for celebration. Today, you should celebrate what an unbelievable life you have had so far: the accomplishments, the many blessings, and, yes, even the hardships because they have served to make you stronger. Just as a gem cannot be polis...hed without friction, nor can a life be perfected without trials. Take a time to acknowledge your life and to praise yourself.

Such a wonderful thing!!!

I am blessed

A recent experience, when life was going through tough times, I felt jealous, jealous of people who have "somethings" that I don't, and will take time and god's will to have in future.

A second thought just flashed simultaneously, am I aware that I am too blessed with other things which others may not have. It can be anything from having a family, or a home, or a job, or having limbs, etc. etc. I never thought that I am blessed with so many things, until this experience and I thank god for everything I have. Just a note: Of all the thoughts above doesn't mean I don't deserve "somethings" I long for. Its just that I have to try and keep my faith and hopes alive. I wish to see a bright sunny day after a long, dark night.

Today, its about this kid (not to mention kids are always cute and lovable) and his mother. The first look at the kid and his mother was they hail from poor family. The kid must be a year old and crying with pain and mother tried to calm him down. I thought its normal and didn't bother to look beyond. I kept chanting my daily prayers without much diversions. As my station neared, I went to the door. Its my habit to stand first and get out of the local, as early to avoid the rush on the over bridge (all efforts to save my 5 minutes). The mother was standing behind me with the kid. She wanted to get off at the same station as mine. As I turned to the kid, I saw sparkle of mischief in those red eyes and as I turned more towards him I noticed that...

A year passed by

A year passed by... With so many travels to India and back, I am exhausted. So many functions and events, some good, some bad, some as they should have been some not. So many lives touched, many new people met, shared some thoughts, shared many memories... A year passed by... When I look back, I am back to the same state where I started a year back.. but empty handed. A year passed by... I am back to square one
