FEEL BLESSED
25TH  November 2015

In the midst of all the hectic routine and cacophony of stress, we forget to listen to the melody of our soul. Going about with our daily chores, fighting through crowded streets to reach office on time, meeting targets and fulfilling expectations of the people around us makes us tired not only physically but we feel as if our emotions are being drained out, relations fading out and one fine day we realize that our soul has lost its lustre...

The thought kept on harping on my mind and meaning of life started getting blurred.One day on my way to office, in the middle of my mental preparation for the upcoming meeting, I saw a girl in rags sitting on the pavement and was trying hard to cover her toddler brother from cold, with the very limited means she had.We see this frequently here but that image was stuck in my mind and I felt blessed for what I have.

I recalled- the nights when my mother checks on me to be assured I was sleeping well, my colleagues takes out their time from their busy schedule just to listen to my rantings about boss and again boost up my confidence to get back to work, my friends go out of their way to solve my problems, my brother who travels half the city just to check I reach home safely, my soul mate cancels his meetings to be there with me when I am low and to reassure "Ami achi to.."

We all have that friend, that colleague, husbands, partners...Small gestures but carry deep impacts which we fail to realize how it silently add glow to our dimming soul.Life cannot always give you big reasons to celebrate, feel blessed for all the small token of love, feel blessed for all the good things and good people in your life because many would die to have what YOU have..
