The Unheard Emotions...

  The Unheard Emotions ... There are emotions that go beyond the boundaries of language, tender, invisible feelings that reside quietly in the heart. These are the unheard emotions, the silent whispers of our inner world that speak through expressions, eyes, and energy rather than words. In a fast-moving world filled with constant noise and distraction, we often overlook the gentle beauty that silence holds. Yet, within that silence lives a depth of emotion that words can never capture. It is in these quiet spaces that we truly meet ourselves, in the stillness where our heart speaks softly, guiding us toward understanding, empathy, and peace. The most profound connections in life often happen not through what is said, but through what is felt. I have often seen this truth reflected in the lives of children who cannot hear but express so much through their hearts. Their laughter, their gestures, their innocent smiles, they carry a power that transcends sound. When I spend time with ...

Decisions Decide Destiny: The Power of Choices That Shape Our Lives...

  Decisions Decide Destiny: The Power of Choices That Shape Our Lives ... Every thought, every moment, every action we take in life shapes our destiny. When a small child learns to take their first step, with support or without it, their confidence, or the confidence their parents instill in them, plays a vital role in their development. Though we know that there is one Almighty who guides everything, we still act unconsciously based on what we learn from our environment and on the decisions we make. It is said that with the support of the Almighty and the learning from our surroundings, we perform actions in five ways: immediate and impromptu reactions to any action, actions driven by imagination, dreams or destiny, education and real-time actions learned from our gurus, learning from wise people around us, and actions based on our internal strength. If these actions are guided by the right decisions, life becomes beautiful and purposeful. But if not, life brings many challenges a...

Change Is Never Easy, But It Is Always Possible...

  Change Is Never Easy, But It Is Always Possible ... Yesterday in Mumbai, on Labh Pancham, the fifth day of Diwali, it rained unexpectedly. Many people shared their surprise, saying they had never seen rain during Diwali before. Generally, by October, the rains end and the weather transitions from monsoon to winter. Due to global warming and environmental changes, nature’s rhythm is shifting across the world. Are we truly thinking about why? From a positive lens, I felt that perhaps nature wanted us to celebrate Diwali with freshness and blessings. The gentle rain added its own touch, cooling the air, brightening the lights, and washing the city with peace. Just as the pandemic taught us new perspectives, this unexpected weather, too, reminds us to embrace change positively. Over the years, our awareness of noise pollution and safe listening has also grown, bursting fewer crackers, reducing smoke, and making our celebrations more mindful. Change isn’t always easy, but it’s never i...

Festivities at it's Best.....

  Festivities at it's Best... Festivals are the heartbeat of our culture, moments that remind us to pause, smile, and celebrate the blessings that life offers. Each festival carries its own fragrance of faith, joy, and belonging. They connect generations, strengthen relationships, and create memories that linger in our hearts long after the celebrations end. The rhythm of festivity is not just about rituals or decorations; it’s about igniting the light of togetherness and gratitude in every home. When the world faced the pandemic, it felt as if a dark shadow had fallen over humanity. Yet, even that phase brought an unseen blessing, a transformation. Corona may have been a devil in disguise, but it changed the direction of our thoughts in a positive way. We began to value our health, our elders, and our family bonds more deeply. We learned that happiness is not found in grandeur but in being together. Lighting diyas at home, checking on loved ones, sharing laughter on video calls, a...

Nurturing Nature: Our Sacred Birthright....

  Nurturing Nature: Our Sacred Birthright... Since the time I can remember, nature has always been my silent teacher. Every rustle of the leaf, every wave in the sea, every sunrise speaks a language of balance and patience. I believe that to nurture nature is our sacred birthright, not just a duty. We are born from the same five elements that shape this universe, and when we care for them, we reconnect with our essence. Somewhere along our journey of progress, we have started taking nature’s gifts for granted, forgetting that dits well-being is directly tied to our own. In today’s fast-paced world, where technology often replaces touch and noise overshadows silence, we tend to forget that nature is not outside of us, it is within us. Each time I pause to observe its rhythm, I realize how beautifully it mirrors our own inner cycles of growth, rest, and renewal. The moment we start acknowledging this interconnection, our sense of purpose deepens, and nurturing nature becomes an act o...

Courage is like a muscle, we strengthen it by use…

  Courage is like a muscle,  we strengthen it by use ... I once read that it is not the strength of the body that counts, but the strength of the spirit. And the strength of the spirit is possible only through individual courage. Since the time I was born till now, I have met, observed, and moved around with so many human beings. Perhaps in the earlier years of life, I was not mature enough to understand, but with experience, I feel there has been a major change among human beings after the pandemic. As we saw many of our loved ones affected by different health issues, we started becoming more aware of our physical health, doing exercises, following diet regimes, and maintaining disciplined food habits.  But beyond that, one more important parameter we must understand is to ignite and stay aware of our spirit, our deep consciousness. This is only possible when we decide to work hard for it, to never give up on what we truly want to do. I read in a recently published book ...

Make your life journey better than yesterday...

  Make your life journey better than yesterday... Our national leader Gandhiji used to say, “Your future totally depends on what you do today.” He also said, “It is health which is your true wealth, not gold or silver.” The reality is that we all work hard to collect silver and gold for our future security, but in doing so, we often forget how important our health is. I was talking to a housewife who spends her entire day taking care of everyone. Due to menopause and other health issues, it has become difficult for her even to walk around the house, and going out has become almost impossible. She is around 50, and at such a young age, she is withdrawing from social activities. She worked hard raising her two children, who are now doing well and earning well for themselves, but she cannot enjoy the fruits of her efforts because her legs don’t support her. If she continues this way, without taking care of her health, how will her life journey be better than yesterday? Those who are g...
