Difficulties

Isn't that oh so true? I can relate with that specially today, and these past few days- one challenge after another..:)And, difficulties have realized that I am difficult...just one smile and they run miles away.:)

Mind Over Matter

I'm so lucky to have friends who come up with quotes that I can only term as gems. Here's one from a good friend, Kams. 

‎"Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, small minds discuss people"

— Eleanor Roosevelt


Thanks, Kams. It explains a lot @ many people around me at work, if you know what I mean..:)

Today

Isn't that just ohh so true? We might have beautiful memories of days gone by, we might have apprehensions about the future-but, is that any reason to spend the current time, moping? Do all that makes you happy today, as it says...it works!!:)

Happenings

Today's inspiring thought comes from the page of Anz, a great blogger, who now blogs now and then:

Everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together....Anubha Vaid

It's written so nicely, no explanation needed..right?

Happiness

The Secret Of Happiness


There once was a very wealthy and successful man. He had more money than he could ever spend and he was admired and looked up to by his community. Still, he knew that something was missing in his life. He wasn't happy. All his life he had pursued happiness and strived for happiness but had never been able to find it.

Then one day he heard about a hidden temple in Nepal that had a special room that contained the secret to happiness. He immediately sold all that he owned and set out to find this hidden temple. After many years of searching and countless hardships he arrived there. He was weary and pennyless, but he knew that none of that mattered now that he had found the temple.

He asked a wise, smiling monk if he could enter the special room. The monk agreed and showed him the stairs leading to the room. He climbed them with legs shaking with anticipation and slowly opened the door. He stared into the room with sunlight streaming through the window and saw what he had come so far to find. There hanging on the wall was the secret of happiness. The man gazed at his reflection in the mirror and laughed.

It is time that we all realized that we are the secret to our own happiness. Happiness is a choice that we make within. Each one of us has the ability to fill our lives with love, joy, peace, happiness. We need only choose to do so moment by moment and day by day.

It doesn't matter what our outer circumstances are either. Don't spend the rest of your life searching the world for happiness.

Just look in the mirror and laugh. Just let the happiness flow from your heart, mind, and soul until it fills your life and the lives of all those around you.
