My innate Treasure keeps me happy #festivalofwords#6 #writetribe Day 1

WriteTribe celebrates writing.  The #WTFOW#6  is a festival of writing in which one has to write for 7 days . This is my post for Day 1 .

MY INNATE TREASURE 

God sends all of us on this earth with one or more innate treasures. When I analyzed myself I found my treasures to be my ability to LET GO and my evergreen urge to learn new things. I am always excited to learn anything new . Out of these two treasures , the ability to LET GO  takes a lead.

The Cambridge English dictionary defines LET GO as to stop holding something or to stop thinking about or being angry about the past . I am always thankful to God for making me a “LET GO  “kind of person ..Isn’t it better to let go and move forward in life than just hold on and feel down.
1. LET GO of the bad memories 
Why to set a constant reminder of the bad memories ? Why to keep thinking n worrying about the same thing ? Life is for loving , helping, caring , smiling and keep flowing. Let life be like a river which keeps flowing calmly . It keeps making its  own way and never keeps in mind which stones had obstructed its path .You had a quarrel in the family……Just LET GO , someone ill treated you at workplace……Just LET GO
Just forget it , forgive and move forward . Why to carry unnecessary burden when  forgetting and forgiving makes us feel so calm and light from within . It’s not that I m always a very calm person , I do get angry many many  times but I don’t make a covalent bond with my anger  . I set the electrons of my anger free .

LET GO

2. LET GO  of the negative thoughts 
Many times we feel down and depressed in life. Many times I  don’t even know the reason why am I crying but something is definitely there that I can’t stop. May be there are some negative thoughts coming back to action out of any bad past , But I don’t allow my tears to form a permanent mud pond in my mind , I let my tears wash out all the dust from within and water the new plants of happiness inside me.
3. LET GO  of Fear 
One of my favourite quotes is   “The best way to overcome fear is to face it ” ….yes I just love this quote and I have tried it many  times , be it the fear of facing the stage or the fear of starting a blog or the fear of paragliding for the first time .  It works , really does.
4. LET GO  of Stagnation
Stagnant water starts stinking , same is the case with our lives. There is only one thing which is and should be constant, and that is  Change . Change is the root of the wonderful life ahead. Any positive change cleanses and detoxifies the body and mind from within.  Even a  small change in your environment by going to a weekend picnic can  help let go of stagnation and energise your mind, brain and soul. My small acts to let go of stagnation are going for a movie or to park with my daughter , play snakes n ladders with my family  before we go to sleep , write a new blog post which energizes me  and yes sometimes shopping . Such acts keep me happy , I relish them.
5. LET GO of the petty concerns of life 

 In our daily lives we face variety of situations which do not happen according to our wish and we don’t feel comfortable. Just accept such tiny matters as they are . I often smile and think that everything is just fine . I have learnt a quote from my Dad , he often gives its reference “Everything matters but nothing matters much ” . I have also started applying it practically in my life and it does help me LET GO  . Let the trivialities of life not  weigh me down and stop me from climbing mountains .

So just LET GO , be stressfree, happier and  keep flying .

I am taking part in #writebravely #writetribe  The Write Tribe Festival of Words #6

A letter to my Kitchen

 Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen    Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly .  Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene .  It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job   in  just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...

Zoozoozoo : A journey

 Today is Sunday ,  May 1st 2022 and yesterday i was invited to my daughter's school to witness a small function.  My daughter Suhani was born in 2007 and the day clearly flashes in front of my eyes when she got on to the auditorium stage for her first annual function during her LKG class . I had dressed her up in a beautiful purple frock . The auditorium echoed  with the sounds of claps as the team LKG stepped on to the stage and took their positions as couples . Their teacher had blushed  everyone's cheeks pink and golden. The song started 'Zoozoozoo......we welcome you ......' and the kiddos started twisting their hips and legs holding on to their partners . Awww...it was such an adorable performance that a mother couldn't control her tears .  Watching some  kids who forgot their dance steps and wanted to just run here and there on the stage was fun too !  Yesterday was the day when she again marched  on to the auditorium,  this time ...

Uplift your mood

 My evening today was not good . I was doing all domestic chores in a  burdened way. I tried watching some  movie but it couldn't interest me . One of my colleagues called to intimate me of  some upcoming duty. That further pressurized my bad  mood . I wore my shoes , put on my headphones and got ready for a walk . After walking for around half an hour and listening to old bollywood , my feet took me towards the splash pool where children were enjoying . I removed my shoes and sat there at the edge of the pool dipping my feet into the water. Watching me , one of my friends also came and sat along . Both of us sat for quite  long on the edge of pool - chatting and dabbling our toes in the water. This cooled my mind and uplifted my mood .  You need to find  your own ways to uplift your mood as and when required . Music , Dance ,Good food , Laughing , shopping ,picnic ,  playing any sport you like , painting , talking to someone , chanting a man...
