Our attitude defines our life....
Life is best for those who want to live it,difficult for those who want to analyse it, worst for those who want to criticise it.....
Laugh so hard that sorrow smiles at u
Live so well that death loves to see u alive
Fight so hard that fate accepts its defeat.....

Seed of Enlightenment
Each one of us carries the seed of enlightenment within.We are unable to experience it because we are slaves of our mind...
We are thinkers..Incessant thoughts of our past & future haunt us. We forget that everyone has a past. We should learn from our past, refer to it whenever required & move on, not live with it.
If we look inside within ourself, we will find immense wealth. We search for wealth outside in the physical world. Wealth i.e. love, happiness, bliss, peace. Material wealth is mistaken for true wealth.
The deepest love is spiritual.. Unfortunately, most of us experience ourselves as bodies & consider physical attraction & physical attachment as love...
Inner transformation brings with it a radical change, self realization, inner peace & bliss....

Expectations
Expectations lead to disappointment, pain & trauma. Learn to accept the fact that we will always find someone failing to do a given task or arrive late or even forget to call ...
Just because someone fails to love in a manner we want, does not mean we are not loved...
Worries should be separated from concern. If a situation is a concern, reflect upon it, find out what GOD would have expected us to do & let go of the anxiety. If the situation can be altered, great, otherwise try to forget & let go.
Are we perfect in all ways???? So why expect others to be perfect & be what we want them to be....
Our happiness should be independent of all expectations...

Understanding Anger
Anger is one of the most dangerous, traumatic and painful emotion. Often we feel hurt and insulted by somebody‘s words.
That’s what we think and feel -- an incorrect perception.
It is always our own creation. We hurt and insult our own self by creating such feelings as part of our response in our mind.
As an example, if someone calls me irresponsible does not mean I am irresponsible. It is his/her understanding of me. It is not my perception of me because I know I am not irresponsible.
Either the individual doesn't know me very well or he/she thinks and feels negative for some reason as a result he/she perceives me as irresponsible.
Therefore, one must realize that“No one can insult you and no one can make you feel anything”, these emotions are created by our own responses…..

Relationships-A learning experience
Through our relationships we can know ourselves. We are a mirror for both. What we give to others at the level of our thoughts, feelings and attitudes reflects on ourselves and finally comes back to us from others. Our relationships are the learning laboratory of our life. Every interaction teaches a lesson.The more you get to know yourself in the mirror of your relationships the more easily you will be able to understand others.
As an experiment, take two relationships - one person who is close to you and one person who is not so close, look at it, explore it and ask yourself what it tells you about yourself and your life? Reflect on each relationship and make a note of what each of these people seems to bring out in you when you are with them. What part of your self would you want to see more developed in each of these relationships e.g. humour, patience, humility etc.? What will you do to develop these aspects of your personality?

Relationship and Love
Relationship is not simply getting along with others, it is about understanding, building, nourishing and caring. Theses are different forms of love. Love can be experienced at four levels – physical, mental, intellectual and spiritual.
The deepest love is spiritual and it happens when two souls experience themselves as spiritual beings. There are no barriers, no expectation, no desire for each other. There is complete transparency and each one is so strong within themselves that no matter what the other may say or do they can never be hurt.When two individuals think the same thought i.e. a unity of thought, it is love at a mental level. Meeting of hearts is when we encounter another who feels exactly as we do.
Unfortunately, most of us experience ourselves as bodies and consider physical attraction and physical attachment as a form of love.
