Gratefulness- by Arathi Menon

Gratefulness
When we win something, we are elated. We feel that it is all because of our own effort and nothing else. we then celebrate this in a grand manner and walk around with this ego.
But, on the other hand, when we lose, we get irritated. Here, we never take responsibility for our loss. We then blame it on God, or everyone else around us.
What happens around us is the result of a uniform mixture of our own efforts, our surroundings, and of course, divine intervention. We must acknowledge this every moment of our lives, sad or happy.
Have a good day

Social Stigma- by Sruthi Sajeev

Social Stigma
Yesterday, while I was travelling in a bus which was almost empty, a woman got in carrying a basket full of fish. She sat in one of the seats, as I wondered how such people were allowed in buses. But then, I felt sorry for her and hated myself for thinking like that. But surprisingly, I was not the only one who treated her that way. Nobody else in the bus were ready to sit next to her, though it was closer to the door. It was in fact for some other reasons, rather than the smell of the fish. Yes, it was that kind of social stigma. I got up and sat next to her. She smiled at me.
I did my part. Now it is your turn. Let’s break the Social Stigma!

The Relationship Status- Sruthi Sajeev

The Relationship Status
I’m in a relationship with life, with nature, with my family, my friends and what not? Our life is so transient. Be with everyone, feel everything around, enjoy, find the bliss, find the purpose of your life. “Seek and you shall find” said Dante. Go ahead. Don’t waste time devoting to a single person or a few.
Be in love with life. Get addicted to life. Live it in every possible way, preferably the best way. Enjoy each and every moment. Be enthusiastic. Try to learn new things. Get adventurous. Dream high. Chase your dreams. Live your life to the fullest!

Rise in Love- by Sruthi Sajeev

Rise in Love
We say we fall in love because it happens so naturally, unknowingly. We fall because we are unaware of it. Sometimes the fall can be really bad as well.
If it is true love, we rise. We rise in because we know each and every step vividly. We are totally awake and feel everything. We get finer in true love. So never fall but rise in love.
May all lovers gain something from their love. Let petty love make way for great loving experience. Love, thus should be cherished as an elevating phase of one’s life rather than a mere fall.
