Getting through!!


The title does not explain anything right?? I recently read about Milton Hyland Erickson!!
This is an excerpt from Paulo Coelhos's blog.

"At the age of seventeen, Milton Hyland Erickson was a victim of polio. Ten months after he contracted the disease, he heard a doctor tell his parents: “your son won’t live through the night.”

Ericksson heard his mother crying. “Maybe she won’t suffer so much if I get through tonight,” he thought to himself. And he decided not to sleep till dawn.
In the morning he shouted out: “Hey mother! I’m still alive!”"


My father always says, "Once you come out of the difficult times your life changes, It is better than ever..It is grand.. Just have to survive these difficult times.."

Or my mother says, "Whenever there is a storm..Wait..Wait patiently for the storm to pass.Do not light your candle unless it passes.."

So this one is for everyone out there..This too shall pass..Anything and everything eventually passes..
Whatever is the present will be past soon..For now.Just hang on..Hang on for that one night..Wait for that brand new sun..You never know, this sun will be the  beginning of a new life..may be a new era..
It is just about hanging on a little more..

Water and Emptiness!!


Read an amazing thought!!
Let us consider a glass half filled with water. One can not  change the water level in the glass by waging war on the emptiness and trying to rip out the emptiness. The emptiness goes by filling the glass with water.



किती साध्या शब्दांमध्ये किती सुंदर अर्थ आहे.. एखाद्या पाण्याच्या ग्लासातल्या पाण्याची पातळी वाढवायची असेल तर त्यातल्या रिकामेपणाशी युद्ध करून चालणार नाही..तर पातळी वाढवण्यासाठी त्यात पाणीच घालायला हवं..
दोन्ही गोष्टींनी उद्देश्य तेच साध्य होणार आहे...ग्लास भरणे!! पण रिकामेपणाशी युद्ध करून वेळ आणि शक्ती घालवण्यापेक्षा सरळ पाणी ओतण सोपं नाही का??




Spent quite some time on thinking about this one..Simple yet very powerful thought..

पावसाच मन



पावसाला पण मन असतं?
कुणासाठी नवीन आयुष्य घेऊन येतो हा..
तर कुणाचं आयुष्य उध्वस्त करतो हा..

त्यालाही मन असेलच कि..
पावसाच मन..कुणी न समजून घेणारं..

या नवीन चैतन्याने तरारून उठलेलं मन..
नवी पालवी..नवं आयुष्य..नवी उमेद..
पावसाचं मन..प्रसन्न..उत्साही..
थेंबाथेंबातून सळसळणाऱ्या चैतन्यासारखं..

बडबडगीतं म्हणत कुणीतरी सोडलेल्या बोटीसारखं 
ना कालची आठवण ना उद्याची चिंता
पावसाचं मन..निरागस..गोंडस..
त्याच हेलाकावणाऱ्या बोटीसारखं..

अश्रू लपवण्यासाठी भिजणाऱ्या तिच्यासारखं
थेंब काय अन अश्रू काय दोन्हीही पाणीच..
पावसाचं मन..त्या वेदनेसारखं..
बोचणाऱ्या त्या प्रत्येक थेंबासारखं..
