What are the right ways to solve issues, where results are kind of mirage? I mean to say real life issues.

Daily, one or the other challenge each one of us has to face. Many a times, we get totally muddled in deep thoughts too.

Quick and easy trick.

Immediately, change the gear forward. How? That is, think about next birth or life and capture the ideal moment there.

And the current scenario? Put it in neutral/accepted mode. Now, decode it.”God, you gave this issue for a purpose, and am ready to take it”. You are ready to take challenge now. Code it with comic scripts, so that you laugh it out.

Next step, repeat the same and it becomes your habit, no mirage , no accidents.

In mathematics, absolute indicates a value which is always positive.

Suppose, we apply the same everywhere possible, be at any stage or state of life!

Literally it works. But practically, we cannot ignore the comparison operators. Each time, less than or greater than diminishes or increases current absolute value by this same phenomenon called ‘comparison’.

That’s how happiness diminishes or improves by comparison. If you are in your absolute stand, the time you compare yourself with others, your happiness quotient fluctuates, wala!

There is something called ‘equal to’ operator. Logic to apply to stay happy is this one. All are equal. Keep chanting and you are absolute.

A fisherman and his family lived close by a coast. Daily, the fisherman goes to sea and gets enough to sell and remaining for him and his family. This continued for years and everyone was happy. They worshipped sea goddess and sea goddess took care of their needs.

But one fine day, fatigue/boredom happened to each family member! How could we be happy for so long when rest of the folks have multitude of issues. Fisherman told his wife, it looks like sea goddess has given upon us. Tomorrow onwards am off this coast and will move to land jobs.

Their life changed and changed. They started thinking, now we are one among human race. They all are disturbed like molecules and happiness hardly came their way. This episode continued for years and slowly, they started remembering sea goddess and coast life and happiness quotient.

Well, this is how human race drifts from mother earth and comes back to her to be happy.

Let’s pledge to keep our earth free from toxins so that we all keep reviving like fisherman and mother goddess keeps sustaining us.

To be a good son, good daughter, good friend, good daughter in-law, good son in-law etc etc is like making of a natural  pressure vessel, volcano or inflated balloon in a due course.

Being human is easy and quite natural if we relax and let go. Many a times, to create a make believe image stresses the person who is casting himself/herself so. A tag of ‘being good’ to all leads to over expectation from receiving the good only parents, spouse, friends, in-laws……relations. 

Sharing of happenings, good or bad need to be there to maintain human social needs. If not, bursting of the emotions take one or other form. Even to suicides, which are seen quite common with students now a days.

Keeping an open book with good and bad chapters side by side or back to back, balances human to remain being human.

React/respond where you need to react/respond. This way no regrets and thus no pressure vessel/volcano/balloon build up and you can spend fruitful life with a purpose.

If we keep our eyes open to small small events, we can see a web. This web is same as what a spider makes or a nest which a bird makes.

Each thread is for a purpose, holding each other thread to make a big picture. We would see the same in our day to day, hour to hour, minute to minute and second to second living. How?! We need to observe with our inner eyes open.

World is a beautiful place to live, as our inner eyes always blends with nature and thus connects us with the creator.

Today saw a teenage worker pulling the grass leveller. There were some two steps near the edge of the land, where he was avoiding the leveller to hit. With much difficulty, he was trying to pull it back. There was an educated guy well dressed standing and watching him from near. A little push by him from the other side would have comforted our leveller boy. But no, zero life skill!

Technical or functional skills are welcome, for any or many issues could be solved in an efficient way. But if no Life Skill, ages are wasted. At any age, when one looks back, any skill with life skill would have made them taste success and happiness in real sense.

Life Skill is mandatory with any other skill. Only experience teaches it or it could be taught at home? Both I guess…
