S-M-I-L-E

“The expression one wears on one’s face is far more important than the clothes one wears on one’s back.” – Dale Carnegie.

We all live in this bustling world, all ready with our set of daily activities to outperform those of the previous day. In doing this all, we may abuse someone for their behavior, regret for actions and be worried; maybe for no reason. In this smartphone world, where all these things discharge us, there is something that consistently keeps us charging…………………. Well , other than food or drugs, the most beautiful five lettered word – SMILE, the sweetest of all gestures.

Smile is just flexing  your  face muscles, shaping your lips & highlighting your dimples (well if you have…..). But  this flex is the biggest stress buster which not only boosts your immune but also boosts mood. A smiling face is always contagious, like a magnet attracting everyone. A smiling person always has a special identity wherever he/she  goes, like a fragrant flower diffusing positive vibes all around.

Surprisingly, smile is the 2^nd habit of the “43 Habits of Happy People.”  Well, happiness is a choice and smile is the first stage to it. Whenever  we see kids, they have a smiling face. This is the reason they are always happy – they have  no grudges on anyone, they don’t have useless breakup stories, no holding on to things….. their smile deletes all these errors from their system .

A smile is much more than a million words and hence it is demanding and is the world’s best  networking medium.

If we think for a while and analyze for ourselves, we will come across much useless stuff on which we frequently waste our time & energy. But if we use some of its fraction to smile, it would not only make our day, but also of others.

“If we don’t laugh at the same joke again, why do we keep on crying on the same problems again and again?...........Keep Smiling!!!!!!”

-          Gaur Gopal  Das

So, when you wake up in the morning, see yourself in the mirror, give a contagious smile and start the best day ever. Give the best smile you can ever give, because your smile would not only make your day, but  also of others around you. 

 Even 2Pac, the rap legend that passed away realised the benefits of smiling, in his lyrics to ‘Power of a Smile’ he raps:
The power of a gun can kill, and the power of fire can burn
The power of wind can chill, and the power of mind can learn
The power of anger, can raise inside until it tears you apart
But the power of a smile, especially yours, can heal a frozen heart.

New Year Tale ❤️

We are now at the end of the year 2018 and are all set to welcome a new station of our life – 2019. We are all set to welcome this grand new year, a brand new and a blank diary of 365 pages.
The year 2018 has been added as a new non – fictious novel of experiences to our lives.
Each one of us has a unique story to share.
Some of us may have won something, while some of us may have lost something. Some might have received heartbreaks, while some of us might have won someone’s heart. Some of us understood who was temporary, who gave temporary pain, but permanent scars and permanent lessons. Some of us might have also understood who is permanent, who are always available for you and helped you along and didn’t expect any thanks. Some of you might have earned certificates and awards for your skills while some of you might have lost just by a bit. And a lot many things; maybe.

Well, these were the things that happened. Lets talk about what we did.
Some of us might have pointed out someone else’s  mistakes, since it is very easy to point out mistakes of someone and its very hard to praise the efforts. ; since we are habited to judge others for that 1% flaw and not for the 99% efforts. Some of us might have been a reason for someone’s smile, while some of us helped someone in their progress.
Summing all this, we could experience this year of ups and downs – which went off teaching many lessons of life. This year increased our level of maturity, made us realize what is important in our life, what we need to focus on, what we need to throw as a trash, and so on.
We as humans are the most talented beings on this planet. We simultaneously handle our families, our closed ones, our friends and acquaintances ,our academics and what not! Just close your eyes for a while and look back at 2018. Whatever you saw was a new experience in all.
Situations teach us everything. They shape us. They show us true faces of people around you, they show us who is temporary, who is permanent.  They show us who really cares and who doesn’t. Situations are an exam where we understand how mature we have become, how stronger we have grown. They show us what is important and most importantly, what and who literally matters.
In this upcoming year, never run behind fake people, but focus and run behind your goals. The people who love you, care for you and want to be with you, will automatically stay in the process to encourage you. They will give you more importance than your assets. They will stay along when you will be busy running behind your goals. These are the only ones who deserve your value, your time, your support and care.

We need people around us for our personal development, such ones those who teach us how to love ourselves. Having a few good ones is enough than a big fake crowd. A good association is very much essential. Just having a boyfriend or girlfriend does not guarantee you love; but having a very few people in our life who care and and even when you hurt them to the extreme, they will still hold your hand and say “I am and will always be there for you”, is what literally matters; because they love you and the ones who do, will always find a way to do so. Never take such people for granted, for they aren’t stupid , but they love you and hence always find out a reason to be always there for you.

So in the new year, lets retain such lovely ones and build memories with them. Surely,  such lovely people can tell you a lot more about you than you might be knowing about yourself. Having such ones is a very rare gift!
In this new year, lets be a ideal person, an ideal child, an ideal friend, and an ideal sibling! Let us be inclined towards our goals.
Let us experience a new trip or journey; let us pay attention towards our academics and personal progress..
Let us invest in ourselves and in our permanent people; and at last, lets leave behind the trash in 2018.
The coming year is full of infinite possibilities and surprises. We have a brand new book of 365 pages. We just need to compose it properly with the colourful ink of excitement and inspiration, which will trigger us throughout the year for all this.
I wish all of you a very happy new year.

Thank you.

The Doubts

               We as humans are Social. Each one of us is blessed with unique talents, unique behavior, different choices & most importantly, different attitudes and perspectives. Highlighting this fact, its obvious to understand that each person has to be dealt perfectly in the way which is needed. There are many people around us, Some are very close to us, some are just friends while some are mere acquaintances, its true that not all are alike, We as humans are a member of many circles – the professional circle, friend circle , family circle and more;maybe! But what truly matters in our lives is the intimate circle. Everyone of us have people in our lives who are very close to us, who love us, who care for us, who respect us, who cherish our presence, who make us feel special and most importantly who make us realize our mistakes. All such people in our lives are never perfect, they too have faults. But ignoring those faults and cherishing those moments with such ones is important and wise.

               
               We may have confronted various people of various types in our past lives and we'll surely in future. Some of us may haveexperienced all the nice from people. Hence, we may consider everyone to be good as them, which is a common myth. While done of us may have been a victim of people’s selfish behavior and might have experienced much unexpected and bad things from them. But that surely doesn't mean that you’ll be facing people of the same type in upcoming life.

                 
                  We’re all humans, who think in all possible directions. Hence we possess a feeling of  doubt when someone is merry to us. Doubting everyone’s' merry behavior not only hurts us but also the person whom we doubt. When we doubt such person's affection towards us, we’re actually disrespecting the person and that affection. Its important for us to remember that not everyone is selfish & wicked. Its we who create a belief about them and begin to disdain our relations with the. that's why person unnecessarily. It never costs us to be good to these people who would not want to lose you.Its Important for us to understand that we cannot stop someone from loving us if they really want to ; as they may have unconditional affection. We just have to cherish such people in a way that whenever they are asked to recall you, their face brighten ups with a merry smile and they have all those best memories you had. Its quite important to be associated with such people and have merry relations with all of them because if such people didn’t exist, the world would have either become a playground or a terror ground, places where someone or the other has to lose. But the world should be like a garden – different fragrances and beauty ; but a single feeling of cheerfulness and happiness.

                   
                    Afterall,  there can’t be any better feeling in this world than receiving back the Love and Affection from the person you love .
