Faith

This is my second article on faith, because now I have gained some more insight into what it is..and how it works.. huh.. Do I sound like an engineer? "HOW IT WORKS".. well, I ought to be. Engineer by fate and blogger by choice. :)

What i know of faith is that "It steers you through situations when things seem impossible, When things go out of hand , and you don't know what will happen next."

The situation seems out of control, and you have nothing to do, And then, a miracle-like experience occurs and all you do is gaze at the conditions that prevailed before. It seems foolish, in what condition you were in, and what you are now. Everything just seems all right. As aamir khan says in 3 idiots,  "ALL IS WELL". 

I feel on this day, that whatever I am today, survived two years of torturous ENGINEERING, all my frivolous mood swings, and all the mess I get myself into, is because of unshaken faith and wishes of some or the other person. Here, I apply my concept of "angels". Angels are real people whose unshaken faith and wishes elevate you from all the problems.The angels are everywhere around you, and they are constantly wishing for your happiness and well being.

Imagine, you are really sick, down with fever and your head is aching like hell, and you have an exam next day. You can't concentrate, you just read through the pages and grasp all the little bits you can. And then, someone says, with complete faith, that your exam will be really good tomorrow. You won't believe it. You will wonder  "yaar kuch aata hi nai hai to accha kaise hoga" ..right? And what if the same happens? You get all the tidbits you had read as questions in the exam.. The teacher gets lineant on you.. The person sitting behind you helps you out all through the exam.. And you perform wonderfully. 

The magical keywords to this success are..WISHES, FAITH, ANGELS.. It was because of the FAITH with which the ANGEL WISHED for your success.

Thanks to all the angels in my life, who wish for my success and happiness. :)

Few lessons are best learned through pain

"Sometimes hurt is needed to make you grow,
failure is needed to make you know,
loss is needed to make you gain
because some lessons are best learned through pain."

These lines speak more than anything else. No other explanation is required to express the thoughts running in my mind. Infact, conquering my mind, provoking me to write, to express more, to tell that pain is indeed, the best teacher.
I have been writing about my weakness,of listening to my heart over the mind. Of being an escapist, running away from sorrow as much as possible. I used to get blinded by the desire of being happy, doing everything possible to get what I want, to keep myself happy. In this process, I was missing out on the best lessons of life, the lessons conveyed by grief.
I had become impatient, stubborn to keep myself and my loved ones happy, hurting anyone who fell in its way or even appeared to befall.I was missing out on the real happiness, the happiness of forgiving, forgetting, understanding, loving inspite of everything.

The painful experiences teach more than anything else possible.
Children rarely remember the things taught in the class, it is uncertain, wether he will remember the lesson or not. But, he will always remember the things for which he was punished in any way. He will always remember the way he was unable to answer the teacher's question, and how bad and insulted he felt in front of others. The lesson will be automatically stored in his memory along with the experience and a message, that he has to study hard next time.

Sri sri ravi shankar says " Loving some one who loves you is very easy, but loving someone who accuses you, blames you, is the art of living.It is very easy to hate someone who hates you, but you rise much ahead of them when you love them inspite of the hatred. Positive always cancels negative. "

Life is too short to hate. But, it is the EGO that doesn't allow us to forget, forgive, love, accept and understand. And the most ironic part is,that we don't even realise that the EGO isnt allowing us to live a happy life. We hurt ourselves, as well as others, to satisfy our own ego. Nothing comes in return, only pain. Until we learn a lesson. Until, we open our eyes, and see, that it is the EGO which is not allowing us to live freely. It is a shackle, which tightens its grip, with each act of hatred. It is a monster, which gallopes the happiness, the self conscience,and makes us blind.
Once you let go of it, you start getting the messages,the lessons, and soon everything starts falling into place. Soon, understanding starts developing, and the negative experience becomes a memory, with a lesson, that love heals everything. From love, developes understanding and patience, and soon the ego melts away.
Pain teaches unforgettable lessons,of love and understanding, until you keep your eyes open and accept everything as they are.
Be happy.. :)

And It Rained

Life was stagnant,
Dullness all around.
To the same old gloom, I was bound.
It was empty,
it was black,
In my life,
it was love which lacked.

And It rained,
It rained love.

Relieving me of my worries,
Breaking off my shackles,
I fly in the glory of love.

I feel special,
As special as the Rose,
standing out in its beauty,
where no other is even close.

I feel happy,
As happy as a blind man would be,
if he gets eyes to see.

I feel lucky,
As lucky a man would feel,
if he hits a fortune,
and is full of zeal.

The feeling is out of the world,
Inexpressible it is,
Love is an eternal bliss.

I cherish
every smile, every moment,
every feeling, every word.
As I feel blessed,
to be showered with
The rain of your Love.

Of Love and Longing

Love, as we know is the purest of all feelings. The best of every relationship is an outcome of love.

"A happy relationship is like a rose, with love in its each fold."

Love is like a saviour, and hatred, a devil. When we love someone, we feel attached to them. And when we do not have what we desire, it is longing.
Longing means a desire to get something or someone you love. A desire as small as getting a new dress you fancied when you saw it at the showroom, or a desire to achieve success of which you have dreamed of, or wanting some one to love you.
Some people mistake longing with suffering. Longing is not suffering, it is a sweet pain which you experience, when you really want something or some one. Infact, it is the best part of a relationship, when you actually realise how much you love someone.

When I was young, I used to stand at my balcony for hours to wait for my dad when he used to go out for work. The happiness achieved after longing for someone for a long time, is a unique one.
My mother says.. What is love, without longing.. Very true it is, how will you feel the pleasure of love if you have not suffered the sweet pain of longing.
We realise the intensity of our love by the longing. It is a unique feeling, waiting for someone just to be with them, hear their voice, feel their presence. You must have seen lovers swearing to each other about spending their lives together, waiting for the day, when they will be together. Each day passes with longing to be with their lover. You must have been wondering, how pitiful situation they are in. Actually, they are very lucky to experience the pleasure of longing for someone because real happiness is achieved after getting something for which you have longed for.

Longing for some one may appear to be painful for a while, but according to me, it is the most beautiful part. You actually get to know, how much you love them, how much you want to be with them, what all you miss in them. It is not difficult if you see the positive side of it. Think of the happiness you will experience when you get what you were longing for. The happiness accumulates with each day of longing. And when it ends, the moments spent together make unforgettable memories.
Never blame the distance between you and your loved ones, just think of the joy you will get when the longing ends.

Luv v/s Attachment

One of my friends told me a couple of days ago that "luv is never sad,its the attachment which is sad"..
I was thinking over it for quite a while and found it to be 100% true..Most of the people blame love for the pain in relationships..Its the attachment that has to be blamed,and not luv..
People say that luv fades away with time..which they consider the cause of a failed relationship..
Actually the attachment between two people is the cause of the dulness..In the beginning of a relationship,you feel really very attached to the person..you jst cant hold yourself from them..
With time,the attachment increases and so does the expectations..n wen the expectations are'nt fulfilled..you feel gloomed..and you blame love..
Love never fades away..it is eternal.It never has a beginning or an end. It's there within us even before we are born. We experience love in different forms at different stages of lyf. It is just lyk energy..it can neither be created nor be destroyed..it is just transformed from one form to another at different stages of lyf..
We get luv in the form of motherly luv,father's luv, luv from siblings, from friends and lover's love.. and our foremost task is to nourish it within us. Each form has its own specialty..which has to be understood and prioritised..
So keep loving and being loved..
Huh..!!my first post..!! :)
I'll get back with some other topic which is hovering through my mind..Happy blogging..!! :)
