Gratitude - Post no. 4 - Blog marathon

-

When life throws curve balls at you, start practising gratitude.It is the only way out, because when you start staring at life's problems it will give you more. When you start appreciating little things in life, it will still give you more.

There are so many blessings in our life which we take for granted and does not even give it a second thought. Then a day comes in our life when we have to do without those very things  and suddenly we realise how big it was in our life  and how small was our gratitude towards it. 

You may ignore this thought as superficial, superstitious or eve illogical but it is proven beyond doubt that there are many people in this world who practise gratitude and are eternally blessed because of it.  

Please read Oprah Winfrey's 'I know for Sure', it will give you ample evidence of role of gratitude in her life.  Like her there are many, celebrities and commoners alike who practice gratitude and stay blessed.  

 What about you, do you practice gratitude? do you endorse it? I do and I would recommend every one to do the same.

    I am glad you chose to write about gratitude. I think along with hope, gratitude is something that makes the world go round.

    If the only prayer you ever say is thank you, that will be enough. (From the German theologian and humanist Meister Eckhart.)

Nature - My childhood friend

This is not a work of fiction, but it seems so, even to me who is the one who has experienced it all.  My memory of all that is being written here seems to have happened in some other life time, but all of it happened when I was 4 or 5 years old, but still the pictures are so vivid and so real in my mind like I am watching a techni colour HD movie or as if I am still there when I am writing it all down.  I say it is not fiction because of the tremendous  nature’s bounty and beauty and companionship that I experienced at that time  seems so unreal even to me. Let me start with the morning, yes, so the morning started with me the 5 year old running from bed straight to the verandah and sitting on the steps of the verandah (of my house which was in a small town of Kerala), the steps leading to the courtyard, it looking all clean  with fresh marks of broom which looked like half circles made over and over again on the brown earth. Sitting on the steps I l...
