    One small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day .

    Today is Amavasya. They say it is niranja naal. We can do anything good today. Today my heart is also full. God has blessed me with everything in the world, happy family, caring children, best friends, virtual daughters etc. etc.

    When you are discontent, you always want more, more, more. Your desire can never be satisfied. But when you practice contentment, you can say to yourself, 'Oh yes - I already have everything that I really need.'

    Dalai Lama

    My house is filled with everything. There are so many God's photos that there is no place to keep them. I dont know which God to keep which God to keep aside. My God's stand is filled with All Gods. My servant was telling me its looking like Tirupathi Malai.

    Then in the kitchen I have so many Steel Dabbas , in everything something or other is kept. Different kind of bottles. I dont have a store room otherwise I would have kept there the things which are not of daily use. Now a days people have modular kitchen , inwhich everything is kept inside. Ours is a old rented house, one room kitchen and a balcony and my balcony is also full with suitcases, bags etc and everything is full int that. Once upon a time I never had much sarees and used to long for them. Now cupboard is full of different kind of sarees, might not be so costly, some I have bought and mostly I have gifted ones. When I went to Dubai also I got six sarees.


    To be content does not mean that you don’t desire more ,it means you’re thankful for what you have and patient for what’s to come .

    Three simple rules in Life:
    1. If you do not go after what you want, you will never have it;
    2. If you don’t ask, the answer will always be no……………………..
    3. If you do not step forward, you’ll always be in the same place

    Dear Viji Maam

    Yes, today is Amavasya and tomorrow marks the beginning of our New Year.

    Your post is very thought-provoking.
    In today's world, it is so hard to say NO and it is even harder to keep the heart content.

    The three rules you have mentioned are very correct and I believe that if all of us were to follow these rules, life would indeed be a happier experience for us.
