Hopping Skipping Jumping

What is love?

If we skip the moony-eyed thinking-all-day-of-someone bit.
To love is to.. care?

How much
How little
and How?

Can't wait to watch Blindside... Is it out yet?

Day Thursday

SO tired.
So so tired.

Head-achy.
Tired of texting.
Mildly disturbed by noisy baby-cousins.

Can't wait for bedtime at 10 p.m.

Shubh Kaamnaein

You know what else is 'written'?
I mean apart from the billions of inter-connected lives/moments/experiences.

Endings and namaskars.
A big big thank you for the challenges so far.
They've been very (very) interesting.
Hard sometimes. Harder some others. And surprisingly breezy some other times :)

Why do i always harp on 'lessons'.
I think its because they make life worthwhile.
I think they give it meaning.
I think thats why we exist. To learn.


In the ashram this week... an audio was played.
A lady asked what were 'good values'.
I learnt that they were those 
-that made you a more loving person
-that made you a more compassionate person
-that made you capable of unconditional love 

Another important lesson alongside?
"Never take somebody elses vomit".
If someone spews ugly words, from the deepest part of YOUR soul... forgive the words and move away.
You are in no way obliged to take that vomit in.
Move away and free your ears of the nuisance.

Pray for everyone but don't hurt yourself in the process.
You know the proverb right?
Khaali haath aayein hain, khaali haath jaayenge
(We come empty handed and leave empty handed)
Honestly, the only thing we leave with is the extent to which we've awakened to our 
"true nature" (one of love)


Something else I just remembered.
If you can think of five people (barring immediate family)
who are genuinely grateful to have a person like You on Earth for the positivity and happiness you bring to others for the sake of happiness and goodness. Then dearest soul, you're blessed.
God Bless Everyone.
Namaskar.
:)

I guess the blogs can't HELP overlapping :)

Inspiration isn't really a straight path. Its more like a mountain. You know, peaks and lows.

and I'm verbose, normally.
Normally, so verbose.

Like the new Grey's Anatomy sound track.

No I'm not LIKE the track. I like it.

Who's reading this anyway?
*shrugs*

h.a.p.p.i.n.e.s.s :)

Thank you God.

For
-the strength you have given
-the blessings you've opened my eyes to
-all the behind-the-scenes miracles 
-the power of positivity
-the love in laughter
-the joy in music
-all the faculties (often) taken for granted

For the realization of strength, power, light.
I thank you with a humble heart.

I thank you for I am grateful.
I am blessed by your healing touch.
My strongest prayers and love.

The Lawyer :)

Lets start the 'new year' with appreciating some beautiful gifts in people.
Just, taking out 20 minutes to note the goodness people are capable of.

Seth Girl and I.
We get uhh blunt(?) when no one can hear us.
She's smart, hard-working and honestly I have the highest respect for her determination.
She's the kind of person who genuinely believes (and proves) that nothing is out of reach and no goal impossible to accomplish.

Her special gift(s)? 
Insane ability to laugh at herself
Olympic level walking speed
High rise ponytails making
Even higher pitched screams (across football fields sometimes! or a busy road!)
Brutal honestly with herself (and others, if they ask for it in order to follow it)
Genuine ambition
Unparalleled focus and determination
and just overall being true to who she is and true to her family (and a few lucky friends)

She's a strong woman.
Call her a girl if you want (we're still 21 you know)
But something inside of her echoes great strength of spirit.
She has a solid value system (sometimes stubborn even :D)

What I treasure (most)?
Honestly, how she's completely unapologetic about the way she is.
It may drive you MAD or irritate you or make you love her more.
She never feels even a sliver ashamed of the person of that she is OR the values she espouses.
A true inspiration as a friend and very much loved.

Can't wait till 15th May to strut around in matching stilettos :D

God Bless.
Love.
