LIVE or LIFE?


We all LIVE, or rather, are living. Routines, school, work, home, e-payments, socializing, complaining, ‘waiting’, ‘hoping’, ‘expecting’, ‘wanting’ and the list goes on.

If seen from a distance, these seem pretty normal for most of us, at least.

So many of us are anxious or worried about finances, children, parents, spouses, health, etc. Well, if one isn’t, then he/she seems rather abnormal…

As a 60-year old man shared his ‘woes’ about health, finances, survival  - he began to sound just like a little child  - wailing, because he is worried he may not get his meals for the day, little realizing, we are all part of Creation and protected by the Umbrella of the Creator who created the entire universe, including, we little beings…

Now, let us take a step back and ponder – is this it? Is this what we are here for? If yes, then I think I am wasting my time here. I'd rather be elsewhere….

LIFE – another dimension, is beautiful. Its about being free from all pain and anguish, fear and insecurities – its just about being at PEACE with ourselves. That's what we call as being HAPPY J.

Why do we fear so much?  There is no reason to fear anything – for all is part of Creation. And the Lord’s Creation is always perfect and beautiful. Let us rise above our fears. 

LIFE is about being one with nature and its creation and interacting with it in so many beautiful ways  - in thought, word and action.

Interacting :

With the cool morning breeze that brushes your cheeks,

With the lovely green lushes that greet your early morning pathway,

With the fellow being that exchange glances with you and those that don't,

Interacting with so many other things that cross our paths daily. You will be surprised at their ‘responses’.

A simple ‘Thank you’ to nature for the little goodies that come your way daily,

A simple ‘Hello’ to the Good Morning Sun and the Good Night Moon,

And the list will go on…..and It should. Because, then it means, we have found new ways to interact with Nature. New Ways of LIFE.

LIFE is about feeling good and oozing that ‘feel good’ feeling to everything and everyone around you. That’s why its called A Life (ALIVE).

So, please go and get ALIVE!!
