Happy Teacher's Day


Happy Teacher's Day!






Dear mentor......

You're a mentor who has shaped millions of lives and guided millions of souls.

You are a reason of millions of smiles and your smile brightens our smiles.

Your warm heart is like a brook brimming with milk of kindness;

Your gentle pat ensures that someone is there with us always!

The power of your words resonates in hearts to bring a change

The guru in you brings out a cute little pupil in me always

Your wise words spring out a stream of clear direction

Your gentle teachings sparkle enormous confidence.

May you live a thousand years!

I wish to be among your dears!




Dedicated to all the teachers in the world

Hindi Diwas


                Irony


We celebrate our festivals, 

Unfurl the flag of nation,

Feel pride to be Indian,

Yet to speak Hindi we are align.


With pride we honour national days,

But our tongue utter foreign words;

Proud to be Indian that we rejoice,

But Hindi Diwas fades from eyes.



Blend your heart and voice,

In Hindi, let our souls rejoice.

Let’s speak the tongue that binds us all,

Our Hindi — hear the nation's call.


For it’s the thread of unity,

That ties us in diversity.

Let's live as one and die one.

Let there be strives none.


Cherish the land, its language too,

Native words tell the emotion true,

Let Hindi Diwas not fade from eyes.

Let Hindi prevail under Indian skies.

They



They


They called it foolish

I was ignorant

They called it immaturity

I was innocent

They called it outrage

When I raised a question

They called it childishness

When I put up a question

When I was being myself

They accused me arrogant

They called me wrong

When I tried to be different

 

They made me speak

When I wished to be quiet

When I wanted to express

They hushed me quiet

They made me cram

What I didn't understand

They called me naïve

When I didn’t understand

 

I was confused about each thing they told

I couldn't follow any thing that they told

They told me about their dreams,

Their failures, their narratives

They confessed their inferiority

And desired of my superiority

Why are they so confused,

 Impatient and obsessed?

 

I wish to be my own real self

Not the shadow of their dreams

I wished to get a chord

Which could connect the ends,

And could bridge the gap,

The deep trench between

There is love unexpressed

There is trust umpteen.

How to do Meditation


Meditation to Show Gratitude

A beautiful and blessed morning to each one of you!

Sit straight and take a long deep breath and feel that you received a bunch of energy inside you. Now exhale very slowly experiencing enormous calm. Repeat this exercise and imagine that you are sitting in beautiful place surrounded by all the blessings of nature. With every breath that you inhale experience the aroma of fresh air, calm music of the flowing waters, morning melody of the birds and softness of lush green grass. With each breath that you exhale express gratitude to the Almighty who has bestowed us with bounties of nature that gives us life in form of ripe fruits, fresh water, air to breathe, plants and herbs. The current situation we are thrust in, is a blessing in disguise which has let the nature replenish itself and regain its vitality. Same we can do to our health, our relations, our thoughts and actions.
Every morning as you wake up look at your hands and say thanks for the million little things they do for you. Express gratitude to your parents for providing for a worthy and respectable life. Say ‘Thank you’ for countless blessing in your life in various and beautiful forms.
The best way to express gratitude is to bring a smile on somebody’s face, make someone happy. The happiness you receive in return is immeasurable. Begin your day saying ‘Thanks’ and go to bed saying ‘Thanks’  Have a beautiful day ahead.

Life is beautiful


However, It's beautiful !



Strifes stopping way
Whirls not giving way
It's so very stressful,
However, it's beautiful.


I suffered huge loss
childhood reminiscent
unchecked youthful
However, it's beautiful.


Race isn't yet complete
Milestones yet to reach
A Journey worth repeat
Yes, sure it's beautiful.
