Rock Bottom is a Leaping Hold

Hopefulness is NOT  

A Way of Thinking 

it is 

A Way of Life ! 

 Is failure the spur that makes one gallop ? 

The coincidence in all these stories is  the common factor - failure  and also the element of rejection in most .

These are just those that became famously known 

It's almost as if the Universe designed their setback to better prepare them for their eventual roles

It could be doing that with you and me too !

Seeing beyond one's nose

Often we are blind to the world around because our nose is in the way !

Look beyond and see the love and beauty that abounds and is just waiting to be recognised ! 

Change the way you look at things and the things you look at change !

The Other Side - Perception

Perceptions are a gigantic " spin - doctor " in opinions leading to (re)action ! 

It's incredible, at times , how the view changes depending on which side you are placed . 

Example 

1. The view of a valley changes dramatically when you look down on it from the opposite hill

2. The side of the coin opposing ' heads' is ' tails '. The difference could be winning or losing. 

3. You feel sad that you have no shoes till you meet a man who has no feet 

4. Bloke driving the wrong way on a one-way street thinks the party is over as everyone else seems to be coming back ! 😀

If only we could be sure that the opinion we formed was the best in class and guided by our Mind , Body,Soul and Instinct !

Who can know 

What my dreams are 

What I want to do 

Where I want to go 

How can they know 

To do that 

They have to live 

My life first 

But then these shoes 

Fit only on my feet ! 

Not everyone can 

Do as I do 

Stand in another's shoes 

And see life 

From the " other side "

Just Listen

#Just #Listen 

Most people who talk to  you about their worries , trials and tribulations are only using you as a sounding board !

Don't get stressed by thinking that you are expected to make any comment or contribution as offering advisory solutions .

Just listen

Point to ponder

Coincidence ? 

EARTH and HEART are made up of the same Alphabets ! 

They both embody the whole World as known to us .

" In my Father's House there are many mansions "

John 14 2-3 KJV 

 can be applied to both in different ways but in the same direction.

The Heart is the pumping station that keeps Life going and is affected by Emotions and Senses.

The Earth also responds to pulses of waves from the Sun , Moon and Stars 

The interconnection is clear but at the same time mystical .

Dwell on these things my friends and assist each other's understanding ! 

Importance of Blemishes

 In any Person, Place or Thing,pristine perfection is so taken for granted that it rarely evinces any comment. People pass by without much ado.Breathing in a satisfied manner.

You can do things right continuously and nary a murmur occurs but the moment a blemish appears all conversations start . 

A blank canvas hangs in the gallery for ages but when a spot of natural soot or dirt attaches itself a Legion of critics takes birth and pages of criticism get written. All wise persons emerge and the deafening conversations dim out the values of the original.

Is criticism the best form of getting attention or the act of praising the original goodness ?

To my mind the latter should take precedence over the former .

True Grit

The Catalyst

BE INNOVATIVE - 

NOT COMBATIVE

Believe it's pragmatic to understand that, in real life , Goliaths will not be easily overpowered by your playing David how so ever in the right you may consider yourself .

It's a mythical concept and David- like victories are mostly a matter of imagination and dreams and filmy lore. 

Reality Check : See a Goliath looming on the horizon - choose a suitable alternative route.

Discretion is the better part of valour

In every seeming obstacle lies the kernel of something better !

For many of us , a short winter of discontent makes us seem to forget the many joys of summer , spring and autumn.

We hold #grudges much longer than #gratefulness.

We tend to linger and loiter around hurt much much longer than  over moments of joy

We tend to question God about the reason for challenges in our life and can overlook  the millions of examples of His Grace !
