Life is a Celebration

-
So, you had just had a bad day at the office and you are preparing to go home. At home, you meet your wife and start complaining to her about stuff that went wrong at the office today. But guess what? She is in no mood to listen to any of that as she herself has had a terrible day at her workplace. So, you realize that you can’t do much about this fact and put a smile on your face and help her out in the kitchen. You dine together after a while and catch up later. You finally talk and communicate to each other about your respective days. You both realize that life is much more about complaining and lashing out at each other.

So, whenever you feel down and sad and depressed about stuff that is going on with you in your life, Breathe, sit back and Relax! Not everything that you wish goes according to plan. So, today by listing out points I am going to be reminding you about the fact that Life is worth living and Life, in essence, is a Celebration.

  1. Stay Detoxified: Stay away from all the negativity and all the negative people surrounding you. Whenever you feel sad and depressed just communicate with your loved ones and they will ensure that you don’t fall into a deep pit. Communication is the single most virtue that humans have been gifted with. By just talking with fellow human beings, a lot and in some cases, most of your stress and anxiety can be reduced. Your loved ones might not be able to provide you with the correct guidance to solve your problems but they will ensure that you get distracted from the things that are causing you the stress and anxiety in the first place.
  2. Retreat: When you feel worked out completely or are drained, remember you can always afford to take a break or go on a vacation and if you can’t afford that, then you can go for a stroll in the park, or take your wife and kids to dinner, or simply meet your friends at a bar. Remember to appreciate the most basic things in life such as holding your kids’ hand and going on a walk with him/her or just smelling the flowers in a garden.
  3. Celebrate: The best way to remind yourself that Life is a Celebration is by celebrating itself. Invite you friends or family members to a house party or just celebrate your or your kid’s birthday by inviting your loved ones over. You will also get to know about others’ perspective on life and career.
  4. Express Gratitude: Once again, whenever you feel sad or depressed, talk to people and communicate about your life problems. Appreciate that if you have food, clothing, shelter, loving friends and a caring family, you have most of the things necessary to sustain your life. Save more and spend less. Appreciate that you have imbibed good thoughts and values and morals in your life and understand the importance of life values life honesty, integrity, compassion and kindness.

The conversation part 1

I woke up in the morning at 5 because my bus was going to arrive from the highway at 7. I realized how badly I needed a break from my routine. Thus, I decided to go the hills with a bunch of few unknown people. This was going to be one hell of a trip. I reached the highway around 6:50 and saw some buses lined together on the side of the road. I loaded my bus and saw all of the people chirping and singing Bollywood songs. All of them looked my age. The fun was just going to be doubled. I saw a girl with her ear-phones on. She was sitting alone and staring out of the window. She looked in her mid-20s, her jawbone clearly visible from the side. I always had something for the square face and so, I can say I was instantly attracted to her. She wore a black t-shirt and leggings. I went towards her and asked “Excuse me?” to which she replied nothing. “Excuse me?” I said. She now took out her ear-phones. “Sorry?” she asked. “Is this seat reserved?” I asked rather stupidl...

Chance

“We don’t meet people by accident; they are meant to cross our paths for a reason.” In life, you meet a lot of people. Is there a reason behind meeting someone? Do we all meet by chance? What is destiny? These questions baffle me as much as anybody. I think we all ought to have an opinion on this. So, according to me, we meet people because of some reason. They say that if you have a positive attitude and you remain happy all the time and luck is favoring you these days then chances are you are going to meet your soulmate soon. It’s like as if the whole universe immerses itself in the process of amalgamation of two souls or acquaintances. Just think of it this way. You met a person on a train. She was all soaked in sweat. So, you lend her help. You get to know that she has missed her train because she got stuck in traffic. She had to take another one ultimately. What transpired all this? Was it all chance? I don’t think so. Another minute here or there and she probably wo...

A painful memory part 2

Read the first part of the story, here . ************************* My father had come home after a long day. “Honey, I’m home” my father said. My mother and I quickly gathered ourselves. My father made a presence after sometime in the kitchen. “What happened?” He asked to both of us. I replied “Nothing.” He smelt something fishy. He noticed something that my mom was hiding behind her back. “What’s that?” my father asked to her. “It’s nothing, Manish” my mother replied. He gradually went near her and extended his arm to see what she was hiding. He took the picture from her and stared at it for a while. “Honey, are you serious?” he asked her. “Yes, I told her the entire story” she replied. She couldn’t control her tears. “Beta, you got to understand…whatever she did she had a reason” my dad consoled me. “I know, dad. I know” I replied to him. I added “but I can’t even be...
