New Sunshine

          Count your blessings                       As I was feeling upset for some or the other personal reason this while, Papa came home carrying lamps made by the girls of the "Blind Girls  Association". This has been a tradition since some time now and we light the lamps made by the blind girls on the occasion of Diwali and also all round the year.  It is a happy-sad alloyed bunch of feelings.              The God, who didn't light ray of hope in their eyes, those very same blind souls make diyaa-s for Him, for His temple to light up. God gave them almost nothing, yet they offered him everything. We, with our intact and fulfilled vision, tend to disregard the visual and obvious blessings God has given us.  This also throws light on the meaning of Love. Love is selfless. Regardless of what is given to us, we must continue giving whatever we have.              We must value whatever we have, for it can be taken away from us the very next moment and in a

     Mental Health So, how often do you call someone "lazy", "distracted", "whimsical"  or even a "fool" ? You do so when you see peculiar reactions among certain people detaching themselves from the activities of regular pleasure. One who sits in a corner doing nothing, talking nothing, crying or just displaying a  :(   is considered to be a dysfunctional entity. It seems as if he/she can do every damn thing in this world, yet just wants to sit and not move for good life.   We connect displeasure to physical ailments. If a person has, say - a broken knee or cancer, he/she "can" remain sad, it's okay. Distressing situations limited to time are given the green signal for their prisoners to be upset, grumpy and sad beyond measure. Just because they warranty death or partial stagnation, they warrant the person to be revolving around the idea of inexistence.  While, this is surely not the case with mental and emotional hea

Goa, The Place to Be in 💙       Travelling. One word and the swarm of feelings it carries. It's delightful to move somewhere as something on this Earth and even more joyous to move places and places in quest of self. To Travel isn't actually a verb but a noun. Poetically so. It is essential for the soul to Travel and find likings or similarities in this vast sphere we all are a part of. Travelling breathes life to the monotonicity of our lives.       I've found my love in many places apart from home. Home being the need and goal of life, of course, is a part of life. But these places actually hold significance just in taste with Home. One such is Goa.       Goa. The word, the place, the geography and all adjectives of happiness merge skillfully in. It's a gifted place. People tend to portray various notions and reasons for travelling this particular land. Some have the reason for enjoying surf-sun-and-sand. Some have their adolescence blooming at it's

Words of the Heart ~ Lyrics     So, often we find ourselves listening repeatedly to a paragraph or some lines from a song. We name it our favourite song or our favourite tune. We immerse in the beats of the song and find ourselves in our fairytales or mystic worlds, so to say. The myriad impact of how some words depict our current or all-time situation is what catches the eye and the mind, always.     I've visualized dreams in some songs, reality in some and some in-between escapades in certain melodies. The words, the paragraphs, the tunes and the beats excite me. I feel I'm empathized by my favourite songs. There's a thought that someone out there has perhaps carved what my mind did. It's a beautiful déjà vu, rather. And believe me, there's nothing more satisfying than hearing in music, what the heart croons.       There's such apathy and generosity in music. Especially one wherein we just weave our imagination from. The list of favourite songs a
