Go where you are Valued

They said - Go where you are valued, so I ran back to God. Why did I run back to God and not towards God?  God knew me since I was in the womb of my mother. When I came into this world , I met different people since my birth.  My mother, father, brother, friends , relatives, classmates, colleagues, neighbors, spouse.  But, do all of them value me? No! I didn't come across even one person in my life who gave value to me.  When I felt that, I had to run back to God who knew me. The only one God who valued me.  I had to run back to Him.  Go where you are valued!

Count Your Blessings!


Count Your Blessings!
There is a song which goes like this – “Count your blessings, name them one by one; and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done!” Have we ever counted our blessings in our life? We do count our curses instead. We are here only to blame and count our “n” number of problems.

 Now, let’s start counting our blessings starting from the beginning of the day.
  1.    Have you woken up today by swiping the snooze or turning off the alarm in your mobile? If so, then it’s the first blessing that you have received for the day. Many haven’t!

2.       Did you get up from the bed all by yourself and walk? If so, it’s the second blessing that you have received for the day. Many didn’t!

3.       Did you drink water/milk/tea and had your breakfast? If so, it’s the third blessing that you have received for the day. Many haven’t.

4.       Did you read the newspaper/watch TV/check the latest updates in your mobile? If so, it’s the fourth blessing that you have received. Many didn’t.

5.       Have you started getting ready for office/school wearing nice clothes/uniform? If so, it’s the fifth blessing you have received for the day. Many haven’t.

6.       Have you started to work/study? Work from home or office/school? If so, it’s the sixth blessing you have received for the day. Many haven’t.

7.       Is there money/card in your wallet to buy groceries/vegetables? If so, it’s your seventh blessing for the day. Many don’t have.

8.       Were you able to speak to your friends/colleague? If so, it’s your eighth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

9.       Had your lunch? If so, it’s your ninth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

10.   Did you take some rest/go for a walk post lunch? If so, it’s your tenth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

11.   Have you got back to work to finish your task for the day? If so, it’s your eleventh blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

12.   Had your evening tea and snack?  If so, it’s your twelfth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

13.   Did you reach home safe/logged off from work? If so, it’s your thirteenth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

14.   Do you have a family to greet you? If so, it’s your fourteenth blessing for the day. Many don’t.

15.   Are you living in a house? If so, it’s your fifteenth blessing for the day. Many don’t.

16.   Did you open the fridge to find sufficient vegetables/milk/meat/egg? If so, it’s your sixteenth blessing for the day. Many don’t.

17.   Had your dinner? If so, it’s your seventeenth blessing for the day. Many haven’t.

OM=AMEN=AMEEN

OM=AMEN=AMEEN There is only one God! We call Him by different names. As simple as that! Just like people from different regions speak different languages, follow different culture but belong to the same country; we follow different religion but belong to the same God. The word of God, according to Hindus, it’s “Bhagvad Gita”; according to Christians, it’s “Bible” and according to “Muslims “, it’s “Quran”. All convey the same message, message of God. It’s like a moral science subject; there is a moral to be learnt at the end of each chapter. How many of us have “studied” the word of God in their respective religion? I meant study and not read; there is a lot of difference between the words read and study, we read a newspaper and we forget it; we study something so that we can make use of it. I just read a verse from the Bible and forget it the next day, if I had studied it, I would definitely make use of it in my life. Yes, we have to study the word of God, there is lot of mor...

Being Nice

When you try to make everyone happy around you, You are being nice to them, but are you happy?  One of my best friends once told me "Dont be too nice to everyone" , You will be used by them. True that! Yes, I never took that advice in a wrong way, being nice means being used.  "Be Kind", but,  Dont "Be Nice". Note the difference.  People start taking you for granted when you are being nice to them. They start making use of you and you will never realise. Better late than never. If you are being nice to wrong people then you are also wrong. You are supporting them. Don't be nice to everyone. Be smart enough to notice the wrong ones. Being nice to everyone means you are not happy, you cant make everyone happy around you. All are not the same. There are people who can misuse you being nice to them. Being nice to everyone means you are trying to please everyone by being nice to them. Be yourself, Be Kind, But, never ever be nice to everyone, el...

The Corona Scam

2020! What an year to start with! A small virus named corona slowly and steadily won the race across the globe.  There were many interpretations on this virus, such as man made virus from China, world war 3, God's/Nature's  wrath,  etc etc.  Yes, indeed many of us thought this is a lesson for all humans,  but still humans dont change. They are making business in the name of Corona. The Corona Scam by corporate hospitals.  Huge respect the doctors who are sacrificing their lives due to this, but, the corporate hospitals are as usual business minded making loads and loads of money out of this.  Even the media supports such corporate hospitals. You turn on the TV only to see the number of deaths hyped by the media. There are many who have been deceased due to other health diseases but all focus is on Corona and blame the same. Even if the results are not positive these negative media and corporate hospitals make it positive. Why? The formula is simple, 1 ...
