Think...but the opposite

Image
Thoughts are always with us. No matter what we are doing, where we are or with whom, our mind is always on the go. Sometimes right there in the moment, but most of the times far away in a different world. Although our everlasting companions, we rarely give credit to the power of thoughts. A small sad thought on a bright and sunny day can turn it into the most gloomiest for you! There might be a thousand good things happening around you, but in vain to cheer you up.  I'm Robin Sharma's bestseller book " The monk who sold his Ferrari" this concept is well written. A simple act can change our lives, but being conscious of our thoughts we can turn our life around.  Here goes  the concept of Opposition Thinking :

I just turned 35 !! "the mighty mid life" as i see it. For someone who doesn't keep count of the year and babbles when someone asks her age, it was quiet coincidental that i counted it this year and found that i was at a milestone year. As any other human natured person, i am also wondering how to make this epic milestone and true one. and needless to say , as every other human, i haven't the smallest clue ! As i tread down that path, today i am writing to put in paper the many rekindled thoughts, feelings and passions that came with my birthday. This birthday, many of my usual circle of friends forgot about it. Whereas many who i haven't kept in touch reconnected with me. My best friends from yesterdays past, took me down, rather kicked my a** down the memory lane to remind me of who we were, who i was to them and who i am! To be frank, i never realised that i meant so much to them or that they ever missed me ! To find these girls actually looking out...

The Puzzle

It's like pieces in a puzzle, some are bright and beautiful while others are just there cos they need to play their role. Many times you being one of the pieces beds to be stuck with another to help form the whole picture. And if it's just one of those dull background pieces you stuck with, you'll be in awe of the rest and find yourself wishing you been on the other side of the picture. But the truth to withhold is that, even though the other side is brighter bolder and more beautiful, you still wouldn't have fit in there. It's the same in life. We sometimes want to get away from the norms we surrounded with. There are other more exciting and bolder horizons we see, places we wish we'd been, people we fall in love with, lives we'd wanna replace ours with. But think about it, there always are these small but perfect curves and edges on you that fit perfectly with those in your life. On its own they may look like a fault, but when put together with another p...

What is Instagram!

The first time i set my eyes on Instagram, i was baffled. A pile of pictures, which cannot be saved, reused nor bookmarked for later. What do people use it for then i wondered! So, to confess, my first reaction was to logout at the same speed that i logged in and forget about this whole pile of beautiful pictures! That said, today Instagram is a proud part of my profile. Eventhough I'm not into the big numbers, i love it. For those of you who are not yet inspired, here is why you should definitely try it out.... First and foremost, it doesn't need any sort of preparation. Click and post is all that it takes.  You don't have to tinker your vocabulary or find the right words, what you see and feel is what you share  Its the expression of your true self, the truest it can get. 'cos it reflects the world the way YOU see it.  ..... And mind it, its not the same no matter even if the scene is the same. Two of us, can click the same pic, yet captu...

Once Upon A Train Ride.....

Standing in the train I look at the compartment next to mine. The faces staring at me but not seeing mine. There's a bubble around each one of them, a vacuum made of the masks they wear. Masks which keeps the truth nowhere near. As the train turns, they disappear into the curves of the tracks for a fraction, and then back again with their stares to crave for our attention. The mirages on the glass walls makes it hard to realise who's on which side. Sometimes they are here and sometimes gone offsite. And I can't help but wonder, how similar it is to our life's paths. People and places, masks hiding their true self. And the way the truth unfolds, .. sometimes bitter.. sometimes sour! -MK © Megha Kuruvilla @ Life's Vibes , [2009 onwards].
