One day your life will flash before your eyes. Make sure it’s worth watching.” -

“If you judge people, you have no time to love them.”
― Mother Teresa


Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.

Carl Sandburg


We come to the world crying and we should live in such a way that while going we should go happily. Though our loved ones will be missing us but a person can live how long he is destined to live. We dont bring anything with us nor we take anything while going. But still we claim everything is ours and simply fight without any reason.

“Every second that you live you are never going to get back. You are never going to get to change what you said, didn’t say, did, or didn’t do. Live how you want to live. Act how you want to be remembered, because you never know how long or short you are going to be here.”

- Emily Doberstein

We should use the time effectively so that later we need not be worried that we did not use the time properly. Young age we are not matured, do not understand so many things but in old age with experience we learn so many things. I am happy that because of my dh also being interested I am able to go for Satsangs. Now since a week I had been going for discourse in Ramayana in which Ayodhya Kandam and Sundara Kandam was told. It was very interesting to hear though we all know about Ramayana. But here some things which was told I have not heard before and the person who told said it very nicely and we did not know how the two hours passed.

First thing is he said Kaikeyi was an astrologer and she knew that it will be bad for Sri Rama if he becomes the King, so with heavy heart she sent him to the forest. After killing Ravana when Sri Rama was coming back he saw a nizhal , which was coming under his feet and he took his feet up as he never sees any other women. She was Mandothari. He said Hanuman is the Guru who united Seetha Devi who is the Jeevan and Sri Rama who is the Lord. Sri Rama gave his ring through Hanuman to Seetha which means I am there dont worry and she gave her Chudamani which means she bowed to Sri Rama. Hope I have conveyed the message properly. I am not so good in keeping in memory everything though from childhood I have heard Ramayana, Mahabharata etc and always interested in hearing and also going for Bhajans. I forget myself when I go for Bhajans.

Today is Seetha Kalyanam and also my daughter's Star Birthday today being Puram , also Trichur Pooram which is very auspicious in Kerala. I can see from her though I am not there the elephants in full swing. Once I had the opportunity to be in Trichur during Trichur Pooram.

“Just because you are seventy is no excuse to give up and let others make your decisions for you. The fact that you are still alive is reason enough to believe that you are here for a purpose; and that purpose is to learn, to teach, and to GIVE.”

- Thomas D. Willhite

Until the day you die, live!

I think the above quote was written for me though I am yet to be 70 yrs.

In dwelling, live close to the ground.
In thinking, keep to the simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don’t try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy.
In family life, be completely present.

- Lao-tzu-
