Happy birthday to me....

So here’s another birthday….

The day when I started my journey on this planet Gaia….

A new day and a new beginning reminding me of my purpose on this planet

As earth merrily dances “garba” around the sun….for the 38th time now since I was born!!!

From a “beta” to “didi” to “aunty” ….

From school to college to following my passion

Happy birthday to me…

From a daughter to a wife to a mom…

Happy birthday to me…

From being a daddy’s princess to the queen of my prince…

From eating the “kheer” made by my loving mom to eating the cake made by cake shop!!!

Happy birthday to me….

From listening to songs on “chayageet” and “chitrahaar” to cassette to floppy to online music on the net…

Happy birthday to me…

From erasing the planning and getting back to living in the moment..

Happy birthday to me..

From mindful living and getting the inner child out to play as it did before

Happy birthday to me..

For the soul in me wondering…

Whether I am progressing inside out or outside in…

Flowing with the flow and witnessing the changes …..

Growing and evolving with each passing minute …..

Musing and reflecting as I enter this wonderful day feeling grateful for being here hale and hearty and living the best life that I could..till now

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

I believe in angels...something good in everything I see......

Ever since I was a little girl, I remember asking the universe (Waheguru/God/Allah/Almighty) for signs for everything I did in my life..... The universe is very very systematic in which nothing happens just by accident or just by chance or coincidence. Everything is for a reason which is what I believe..... My relation with the universe has grown just the way I have grown. The signs that the universe sends are mysterious and I always marvel at the ways things are communicated by the source. So now, I have decided to shift my Andheri centre of Khushi to a new place. The day I went for a meeting, angels sent me signs that I was on the right track and divinely guided. Next, I decided to get the place done before we shift and then came a series of things that have left my mouth wide open every time they happened. In my first visit I was finalising the contractor to get the repairs work done for the flat and was a little worked up. And there I saw a white butt...

Another Dusshera....same feelings!!!

Another Dusshera again.... Time to burn a Raavan once again!!! Here I was dressed in my light green color frock, 8 years old, jumping with a group of 10-15 friends. We were just jumping from one house to another. My aim was to cover as many neighbors houses as possible and to give the “sona” to everyone -the green gold( leaves of Apta tree). Not worried that my dress was all muddy, the body was sweaty, hair in a mess, smelling like a pig holding the green gold with dirty hands. But “looks” were not important,”feelings” were..... I remember holding just 3-4 leaves in my hand and worried about them. And in the time when we moved from one house to another, I would break every single leaf into 4-7 smaller pieces so that I could give it to everyone. And we all would say “Shubh Dusshera” and take blessings from elders. And while giving the small part of the apta leaf, a silent prayer would go into the universe asking for happiness and prosperity for the family. We were so i...

You judge me...I judge you!!

Sometimes, I am a very judgemental person... Sometimes, my friends are very judgemental..about me... Sometimes, my relatives are very judgemental...about me But why I am thinking about all this... Because it HURTS when someone judges me and it hurts the others when I judge them...it gives emotional wounds and I really don’t want them or to even give them. So why do I do that? Why do others do that? Deep down, all that I want is that people should understand me and people want me to understand them. But somewhere, the default strategy is to spring back into being judgemental... Judgement cuts my self-esteem and self-confidence like a sharp knife. But this game of passing the blame goes on day in and day out for all the waking hours. Today morning my husband spoke to someone and he judged him, I gave him the “gyaan” of not being judgmental and understanding the perspective of the other. Also told him to see the complete picture before arriving at a conclusion. ...
