I am in no mood to write today. So read at your own risk.
I observed a new aspect about my personality.
Commitments.
I believe in commitments. Very strongly. And I believe in honoring them without fail.
That's exactly the reason why I hadn't been making any in the past, I noticed.
So since I am correct, I am not right.
Anyway, as I committed to share my meditation lesson even though I am in no mood to write, I am still writing now. I committed to write. Half heartedly or whole-heartedly, I didn't mention.
Today's gyan-
We divide our daily experiences into two categories- pleasant and unpleasant.
Pleasant like- getting the privilege to get up late in the mornings, getting favorite food at lunch, meeting someone nice, getting a lucky shoe in the sale etc etc.
And unpleasant like- missing the train, waiting longer for the lift, being at cold war with the colleague, finding uninteresting lunch (oops, my life surrounds so much around food) etc etc
So, is really a pleasant thing unpleasant? And an unpleasant thing really unpleasant?
We base our judgment upon what we feel makes us happy. And we derive wrong definitions of happiness/ pleasure and peace.
And in actual, there is no such thing as pleasant and unpleasant as the criterion we set is baseless and ever changing.
OK, am not explaining any further. Please google yourself. Thanks.
P.S. And I am in no mood to put any image too.

To understand me, you have to meet me and be around me. And then only if I'm in a good mood - don't meet me in a bad mood. ~ Avril Lavigne

If someone decides they're not going to be happy, it's not your problem. You don't have to spend your time and energy trying to cheer up someone who has already decided to stay in a bad mood. Believe it or not, you can actually hurt people by playing into their self-pity. ~ Joyce Meyer
Tomorrow (or is it already today by your clock) is International Woman’s Day:
ReplyDeleteThree quotes to mark that occasion-
The question isn’t who’s going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me. ~Ayn Rand
Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another. ~ Toni Morrison
I think the girl who is able to earn her own living and pay her own way should be as happy as anybody on earth. The sense of independence and security is very sweet. ~ Susan B. Anthony
Finally -
Across the miles…
comes this wish
from me to say…
You are special!
(at any rate your blogs are)
Happy Women’s Day!!
