Everything has a purpose

That is the way of mindfulness and mental peace which is propagated  by positive thinkers and wellness teachers  and therein lies their value

Have  you ever passed the site of a horrendous road accident minutes after it has happened and realised you could have been part of it if it wasn't because of 
the jammed door lock 
or the phone call on your landline just as you were stepping out
 or that obstinate tie which was refusing to knot correctly 
or even that collar button that was being difficult 
or the neighbour who way laid you as you were going out of the building insisting on talking to you 
or the car ignition that refused to fire ( today of all days ) 
Do you then regret all the curses and abuses you rained down on there innocent events ?
They possibly saved your life and made it possible for you to help those involved in the accident !
In every event , the smallest of them , ( not just big ones like missing a flight  etc ) there is a purpose which we must learn to recognise and immediately we can think clearly .

Lifetimes

#Lifetimes remain for Souls to be together ! 

There is a connection 
With Each Person 
Sometimes you sense it 
Sometimes you don't 

Sometimes it throbs and 
Sometimes it tingles 
Sometimes it tickles and 
Sometimes it groans 

When people sense it 
The pull is very great
But if not resonated 
It remains for a future date

Plan B in Life

Just a small funny story to try and emphasise on the importance of having a  #PlanB  in life's situation
===========
  A puny frail fellow having had a couple at the local bar went out and found that someone had painted graffiti on his car ! Realising it must have  been someone from inside he swaggered in to the best of his ability and menacingly demanded to know who had done it ! 
A huge body builder type got onto his feet and looking down on our hero admitted to have done it 
Mark you , his tone had under currents of " So what are you going to do about it ? " 
The hero , quickly ' sized '  up the situation but not to appear a coward ( and still being a bit under the influence of the couple he had taken ) asked 
" Did you do that on purpose  or was it a joke ? " 
The big guy ( deepening the underline to ' what are you going to do about it ' ) said " I did it on purpose " 
Our Hero , showing great presence of mind ( #PlanB ) said : 
" Good , because I don't like jokes like that ! " 
And beat a dignified retreat 😊😊

Joy - more experienced than defined

This image causes an explosion of hope would you say ?
I have this terrible habit of continuously posting images like this , which have an impact on me 
Trust me it's caused by an impulse to share a moment experienced , an idea pronounced or just the sheer thrill of observing something creative 
(Am an idiot whose eyes moisten or well up when I hear great pieces of music or watch a marching parade with a band .)
Anyway , what I realise is that , there is a whole lot of persons who are coming  up with similar images and sharing them and I suppose they have intentions similar to mine ! 
Those who feel inflicted by this barrage would be wise to adopt a scrolling policy as it's not likely to end in the foreseeable future 
( Did I just see a lot of people unfriending me ? 😀😀😀😀)

Impulse - foolish or otherwise

#Impulse - foolish or otherwise 

It's a matter of conjecture 
If I am heading in the right direction 
I only know that the path taken 
Is documented in the Happiness Section 
I continue to hold the goal in view 
Moving forward with determination 
Convinced that there is nothing wrong 
With my efforts and sincere intention
People may join or misunderstand 
My expressions , actions and emotions 
But what matters most to me my self 
Is that I act firmly on my notions .
If I do act in my belief 
That I do it for others benefit 
Let them not judge that I am pushed 
Because of any personal profit 
When an emotion is strong 
It can blind us to Reason 
But  loving and impulsive action 
Do not have any season !

Some stories with insights

Reminded , for some strange reason, of two stories related to slightly inebriated persons (" high " in the vernacular of the uncouth ) . What appears to be juvenile humour may, on closer inspection, have a lesson in them 
A drunk driving the wrong way on a ' one way street ' was stopped and asked by the policeman on duty
" Where do you think you are going ?" He replied:  " Dunno but wherever it is I seem to be late ! Everyone seems to be com⁰ing back ! " 
⁰My take away : 
On the path of life make sure you are facing in the right direction suited to your purpose or be prepared to swim against the current.

A man saw another searching for something on the ground , under a  lamp post and being helpful by nature asked if could help. The searcher said he was looking for his keys which he seemed to have  dropped. The man started looking but in vain . On being asked where exactly the keys were dropped the man pointed to a place a few meters away. On being asked why he was not searching there  the man said 
" But the light is shining here,  isn't it ? !" 
My take away : What you seek is not ALWAYS where the light is shining but you may have to work at finding it in the shadows ( with some help of course 😊)

The Universe Show

Just sharing a thought that crossed my mind 
If  we consider it , now a days the same movies , TV shows and Google and You Tube can be viewed all over the world the only difference is that of time zones. Content  seen is constant . Also , there may be particular spots where viewing may not be possible ! 
The Show of the Universe in which the Sun , Moon and other  Celestial Bodies  are cast can also be viewed from everywhere subject to time zones ! 
It's a great show without disturbing ads and needing no sub-titles and there is nowhere it can't be seen and also has beautiful backdrops ! 
Give " The God Show "the thumbs up and lets push up its TRP ratings ! 😊😊
