                                                     FOOD FOR THOUGHT !!!

A wonderful depiction is this cartoon that aptly demonstrates man's obsession trying to fit a square peg into a round hole !! This really set me pondering !! What is it that urges him to insanity ?


It is firmly ingrained in us that "Everyone and everything in this universe is created for a prime purpose". Thus, each minute particle has a role to play in the universe - however big ... however small ... however seemingly insignificant it is. 

If that's the belief then each one of us is unique as being "me" ..... spokes in a wheel, serving a destined purpose. So why not celebrate this uniqueness. You are not more or any less than someone else. There is someone out there who appreciates your worth ... flaws and all ... that's your identity.
There is a place out there where "Black is beautiful", where being humble and tolerant does not translate to mean "submissive", where having less does not necessarily translate to mean "dirt" and where having more makes one far from enriched !!

Predators like the sharks devour small fishes in the ocean and are in turn mercilessly hunted by man . The same creator who created these beings, in all his wisdom also gave each creature a unique gift of self-preservation, to defend themselves in the face of attack. A tiny ant can cause you to cringe in pain with a small sting. It definitely won't do to cross the path of angry bees! Reassuring too is the fact that creepy crawlies only attack when they are trodden over. 

In other words, the world would be a far better place if every being acts within his territory and learns to respect another's space and position, whatever be it. There will come times when it is near impossible to share the same space without toppling the other. Wouldn't it be better to gracefully acknowledge supremacy instead of rubbing it in their faces? Wouldn't it be better if each one acknowledges that no two beings were made with the same mould and thus there are bound to be differences ... difference in colour, in nature, in social status, in intelligence ...., so on and so forth? 

Lets celebrate little victories and learn from mistakes and draw strength from that to enhance our uniqueness. There can only be one "you". Isn't that reassuring ?

LIVE n LET LIVE !

    AN ODE TO A MOTHER                                                                

This is the story of probably every mother in the universe.

Ever since a life is created in a mother’s womb, her emotional clock ticks away in frenzy when she plans, broods, worries, dreams of the future of this miracle being.  She foresees this son who is always there to wrap her in a bear hug, to make all her anxieties vanish.  She foresees this little girl she can doll up and visualizes her pouring out her crazy secrets to her.  She will read up on all types of literature on child-rearing.

Why are some people achievers while others aren't ? 


I always marvel at the life of an ant .... so tiny yet so strong and determined ! They seldom rest, constantly on the move collecting morsels for a rainy day. Have you ever tried putting an obstacle in their path? They smartly step around it !! Whats more, they even cart along any causalities in their path too. They laboriously carry a dead comrade to safe grounds. You can try your best to deviate them from their path but with little luck! They don't suffer interference either and with a sting can put you in your place! There's so much we can learn from them!
