Sunshine...My World .!

I was just catching up on with some friends recently and Ankit quoted on my dance classes. And I quipped to him that I need to write a blog for that. More so it was an excuse for taking time out which I had been avoiding for a long time for a lot of work load around. To an extent I didnt miss my blog for I kept writing in one way or the other :) I havent left my dance school as yet..and I hope not to do so as well. Its been a long time I have been with them and over these years I have learnt a lot ..a little more than just dance and it helped me overall. I learnt patience ...you dont get things in one shot ..yet you have to keep striving for it..keep on finding what works for you and once you do ..try for even higher..can u do yet better than that. I was commenting to Ashu (at work) that there was a time I wanted to be able to address a group of people as a good communicator and not only a communicator I wanted to hold their attention till the time I was talking and I didnt have it in ...

Lord, protect our doubts, because doubt is a way of praying. It is what makes us grow, because it obliges us to look without fear at the many answers to the same question. And for this to be possible, Lord, protect our decisions, because decision is a way of praying. Give us the courage, after doubt, to choose between one path and another. Let our YES always be a YES, and our NO always a NO. Once our path is chosen, let us never look backwards or let our soul be gnawed by remorse. And for this to be possible, Lord, protect our actions, because action is a way of praying. Make our daily bread be the fruit of the best that we carry within us. May we be able through work and Action to share a little of the love we receive. And for this to be possible, Lord, protect our dreams, because dreaming is a way of praying. Enable us, whatever our age and circumstances, to keep alive in our hearts the sacred flame of hope and perseverance. And for this to be possible, Lord, let us always be filled ...

Be like the flowing river, Silent in the night. Be not afraid of the dark. If there are stars in the sky, reflect them back. If there are clouds in the sky, Remember,clouds,like the river, are water. So gladly reflect them too, In your own tranquil depths. - Manuel Bandeira

A moment can make you feel stronger, a moment can make you go immensely weak. Its a strange rule of the game, when you thought happiness is there with you to stay, it suddenly hits back with a line of sorrow somewhere deep in the heart.On the other side of it, it may be sorrow and lonesomeness around you and when you think things cant be any better a streak of happiness enhances that shine in the heart. Isn't that an irony of life which keeps you juggling between these strange emotions and creates a so called change in this life. It just comes to suddenly as a ray of change and changes what you thought was your comfort zone. Moments really are powerful aspects of our lives and sometimes we just live them giving them no importance and than they raise their pedestal to gain the importance and to be a part of the memories, which changed your life. I don't know why this random thought crept in my mind. I don't even know why I wrote this all..Its just when I sit down the words a...

Dance like no one is watching, Love like you will never be hurt, Sing like no one is listening and live like its heaven on earth

Every year is a flood of memories ..which are so precious for each one of us ..since we spent our lives in that year ..it leaves behind the memories sweet and bitter ..the times easier and difficult .. the feelings of joy and despair. All and all its always a precious year, each day of which, makes us all the more wiser and changes our thoughts. Its a reflection, when we can say we are different in our lives for this year, which changed us and our way of thinking and somehow enriched us. As we are about to leap into the new year, wish this year adds more dreams and the belief and courage to make them a reality. May this be the wiser, joyful and all and all a wonderful year to come by.! Wish you a very happy new year 2007 ..!!

There is something really beautiful my dance instructor said yesterday, which was also encapsulation of what I was thinking of writing, since sometime last week. I wrote this post to keep these lovely thoughts with me and to share it with you all, who come over to my blog to read my mind. :) The thought started on the aspect, that she was stressing on enjoyment in dance and not just dancing. And parallely my thoughts on this post was coming in from an article from Osho on the control of the state of mind. I am trying to jist it down to my own words and thoughts here. I hope I get across this thought as nicely I learnt it. The way we are brought up somewhere we can feel that its very easy to be angry and its really difficult to smile and enjoy. The difficulty comes from the simple fact that a smile cant be genuine unless it comes from within and on the other hand bringing out anger can be really easy. Envision this...can you be angry for an hour ? I would think its not difficult at all...
