Celebrations!



"The more you celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate" - Oprah Winfrey.

There are hundreds of reasons why we celebrate and rejoice. We celebrate birthdays, naming ceremonies, festivals, marriages, new years, success, wins. Everyone has his own way of celebrating. Some people like lavish parties, some like to drink and eat, some like to go on vacations, some like it low key. You opt for anyway to celebrate, but the important thing is 'jubilation'. Say aloud that you are happy, tell the world the reason for the frolic. Celebrate every tiny victory!

Celebrating is also a way to say Thankyou - to the people responsible and to the opportunities life gives you. Celebrating is showing gratitude. sharing your happiness with others so that it multiplies further.
Celebration is also a way to make memories. You celebrate with your family and friends, you chat, you eat together, dance and make merry, you click pictures - you cherish these moments for a lifetime!
Whenever you are sad or feeling depressed you go back to these memories and uplift your mood. We feel relived that we had our share of enjoyment so now we are ready to face some lows too.

Celebrating your work is a better way to live. It lessens the pressure and makes it easy to be done. There are going to be hardships, so when you redeem something make some time to celebrate.

Monotonous life is quite boring, right? So stop once in a while and celebrate without a reason. Celebrate - just to meet and greet your loved ones. Celebrate - just because its Friday. Celebrate - just to get away from your sorrows and worries.

A good life is a collection of happy moments and 'celebrations' add up to these.

Life is what you celebrate - all of it - even its end! Yes, celebrate 'death' too. For the person who has lived his life - contented, with his share of success and failures, his achievements. He has given us our share of happiness when alive. So celebrate that too!

Celebrate your failures too! They are also the milestones which guide and prepare you on the road to success. You may raise a toast and tell yourself that you have put in efforts, tried your best, 'you will succeed - theres always a next time!'.

By celebrating we mark it as a special day. We keep going back to it, revisiting - feeling contented and happy about the achievement.
So friends, Life is short - wear your party pants and Celebrate!

Diary 2024

  And 2024 ends..... What a roller coaster ride!  Every year passes by and the new year comes afore, leaving you with something and making you leave something.  It would be quite odd if time doesn't indoctrinate our minds. This year taught me so much, like the previous one and the prior ones too! I have learnt valuable lessons thanks to 2024. The year was challenging, demanding yet gratifying.  What I grasped this year would be exemplar for rest of my life!  The fear of losing your close ones, leaves you petrified. While the close ones are battling, struggling with all their mights, you feel helpless even when you have honest intentions of support. Mental support, yes that can be given in abundance, there's no ceiling to it. But the one you intend to support is going through so much that sometimes just being there, showing up is also helpful.  Sleepless nights, nightmares haunted me for days. But then when you see them valiantly striving and vanquishing the...

Moira : Bound to happen! Chapter - 1.

She was sitting on the bench under the huge tree. Its extensive branches covered few more benches around. The park was a hangout place for teenagers. It was a playground for children and a perfect site for the exercise enthusiasts. People jogged, wearing headphones, determined to shed those extra kilos and be fitter, sticking to their new year resolutions, was a familiar sight here.  Yuga wasn't feeling the vibe today. She had left home as usual, early in the morning, in her tracks and tee to run a few miles, but after three rounds she just sat down on the bench. She saw an old lady taking rounds, walking slowly, but with vigour. The tree was shedding it's aged golden leaves. One such tanned foliole fell beside Yuga on the bench. She picked it up and let it descend on the ground. She switched off the songs playing on her phone. With air pods in her ears, she sat inert on the bench. She closed her eyes and could hear the birds chirping. "They are so happy even at the break ...

What's your plan?

 "You've to score good grades at school!" "You've to do your Olympiads!" "You need to have a co-curricular activity or some sports activity!" "You should be able to dance or sing or play a musical instrument!" Oh my my! So much pressure on these little one's learning to adapt and traverse the lanes and by lanes of this complicated world. "But its a rat race! He/she needs to figure it out sooner. Studies, career, universities, the stress builds up as they advance into their grades (classes), isn't it?" Yes, true. It's a tough task for the coming generations. Population is ever increasing. Even though the colleges and courses are increasing in numbers but we have no say on the quality of education they impart. Also the leading universities and colleges are always the first priority, obviously. So the newbies are looked down upon. Also the reservations hinder the paths of many. Well, so what score is a good enough score...
