Day 87-Gratitude

We all have the tendency to take for granted a lot of things in life. Have you ever thanked the breeze that blew in your ears? The sun that shines on you? That cleaner lady who made your house sparkling clean?
Why? Why have we taken for granted these things?
I am greatly in appreciation of the principles of Rhonda Bryne in “The Secret” where she says that the more you are grateful the more good you will attract in your life.
When I looked into the myself , a while back, I realized how much I was complaining about life. And the more I complained the more bad things happened to me.
We all like to be appreciated , so is it not right for us to appreciate all the wonderful things we are receiving in life?
So be grateful…Say thanks to every good thing that happens to you in a day..in the hour..in the minute…and be surprised at how many good things happen to you…

Thank you universe..Thank you human beings…Thank you nature…Thanks for gratitude that life is beautiful!


Good night my darling universe!

Day 65-What we need to tell our girls

Our generation has a peculiar problem of swinging between extremes . One group of the society considers girl children as a shame and engage in female infanticide and another group-the educated, cultured, modern group is the exact opposite. They tell their girls to be aggressive and treat the males in the society BADLY. I am not in agreement with both and hope for a balance where the men and the women in the society get their due credit. So, what is it that we need to teach our girls? 1.  Education is prime-beauty, money and fame come next only 2. A woman is strong   and has high potential –there is no such thing as a “Job meant for a man” and “a job meant for a woman”. 3.Tears are not weapons. To use them like that is cheap, dangerous and wont work all the time 4. Financial independence is important, but emotional independence is critical 5. Treat a man with respect.PERIOD. 6. Never raise your voice…your look should do it… 7. Size of breasts ..size of hips d...

Day 17-Mediocrity-is the name of the game

Of the many lessons that I have learnt after a few years of working in the corporate world and a few others in education, I have come to realise something about this nation that disturbs me. I use the word Nation and not the world because I do not know about the other races and so I refrain from giving my opinion on them. In case you have been fortunate enough to have an extremely talented person as a relative or a friend or if that person happens to be you-someone who wouldn't settle for anything less than excellence, you might have noticed that these people are usually what the society would call "unsuccessful" or "unpopular". There is no place for excellence today. Usually, the very well dressed, jargon rattling, fair skinned person gets preference in any meeting/presentation. The child who finishes first and writes what the teacher thinks is "good" gets his A+. The teenager who says "I want to be a doctor" is considered "in the righ...

Day 34-Why Education?

I come from a country that has proven , time and again that in order to be successful, education may not be necessary. I have seen way too many men who haven't been educated but have made shit loads of money. So why be educated? Is education a tool to having a career/making money/securing a successful partner/making a name in the society? If that is so, why not teach children in schools ONLY about Physics and Maths and Chemistry and may be a bit of money management? Why do we teach Art and craft? Why do we want children to participate in the million activities-drama, dance, music, elocution and all of that importance we lay on extra curricular activities? Why help children acquire good handwriting? Why show them to appreciate music and art? No matter how hard I think, I go back to Montessori's answer-that one theory that is the basis of the Montessori principle-EDUCATION AS AN AID TO LIFE. Certainly this is the aim of education -to help children understand how to LIVE...not...
