Be the first one to reach out


Welcome Back!

So many of us hold on to little resentments that may have stemmed from an argument, a misunderstanding, or some painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us, believing this is the only way to rekindle a friendship or relationship. We always keep a grudge.

Whenever we hold on to our anger, we ruin our minds. We believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. The way to be happy is to let go. Let other people be right.

Usually, when someone takes a chance and reaches out, everyone wins. Both will benefit from this little step.

By doing this, you will enjoy the peace of letting go, and the joy of letting others be right. You’ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right”, they will become less defensive and more loving toward you.

People usually reach back in these cases. But, if they don’t, that’s okay too. You’ll have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part, and you’ll become more peaceful yourself.

Thought of the Day:

Happiness is an attitude. We either make ourselves miserable, or happy and strong. The amount of work is 
the same.

'Today' is his ๐ŸŽ unto you

Welcome back ๐Ÿ˜€ ! Have you ever wondered why people like handmade gifts above all other gifts? The answer to this question is simple - You/They recognise the heart behind the gift and that makes the gift priceless . "A gift is not a material, but an outlook - to look out at the heart behind the material." -Mahatria Rฤ Even if the present is just a handmade flower or a greeting card, it would be one of the best gifts you would have ever got. Similarly , Education becomes a gift when you recognise the heart of the teachers who transfer their knowledge unto you . Your childhood becomes a gift when you recognise the heart of your parents in the upbringing. Friends become a gift when they stand by you not only in your good times but also in your tough times. Life becomes a gift when you realise its preciousness and its importance. In that sense, "Today" becomes an eternal gift . Always keep in mind that you may not live to see the "Tomorrow"...

Ego never accepts the truth

Welcome Back! Everyone goes through this phase of life where the ego drives one to do anything and everything only to get noticed and recognised . It is a phase when good is good only when it gains attention; even bad is good if it can draw attention . Also, good is bad when it fails to gain attention. Ego survives on gaining attention. However, one must outgrow that phase of life. Ego needs feeding ; and hence it is regarded as a beggar . The problem with ego is that when ego is fed , you struggle with the superiority complex , and when ego is starved, you suffer with the inferiority complex . It destroys your peace of mind.

People have also lost many golden opportunities while they were servicing their ego. They should have done the other way, but they could not. Ego destroys your freedom of choice. There i...
