Rejuvenate
Humankind has desensitized itself
in a big way, in order to survive . It is time to reverse this condition, in
the wake of so much avoidable stress and misery.
Apart from the natural disasters
and unexpected happenings in our lives, we are also bringing misery to each
other. Mind you, we are not escaping it either! We are all a part and parcel of
each other, living within the same space, breathing the same air, having the same
emotions…. Whatever we ARE doing is therefore, coming back to each one of us.
Just as we come together during
natural calamities to help each other, conditions today are as bad as a
calamity … and WE are responsible.
So, now, the onus is ours to
clean up our acts and help the universe to get back into its original nature.
We have vitiated the world enough , haven’t we ?
We need to throw out
unceremoniously, everything that is against the will of God. And we know what
these ingredients are. What is left is to acknowledge our roles in the
pollution today and refashion our roles to rise and make this world a better
place.
Restore! Rejuvenate! Respect!
Become sensitive to even a pin
drop. We need to!

Forgiveness
Please don’t hate family and don’t practice enmity either. There is a karmic reason for being together. There may be unfinished business from other lives that needs healing. That is why we have been given a chance by the universe to be related by blood. Healing is what we must do, not by distancing but with love and forgiveness.
There is always goodness in
everyone. We just fail to connect with it , both in ourselves AND in others. If
there was no goodness, we would not be connecting with anyone.
When we put friends above family,
we forget that those very friends have issues with their own families. Then why
do we find it in our hearts to shun family and make “friends” outside?
Growing up, we had our siblings
and cousins as friends. Today, there are distances. Very unfortunate that our
egos are more separatist today !
Let us try and rethink our
relationships, especially with regard to where we have failed in wisdom.
Because where there is love and forgiveness, there is always wisdom.
