Its our Planet

This post is very different from my comfort zone in writing, but I find it useful and worth sharing my views about this topic that is Saving our planet.
We have enough food, water and everything necessary to have a good life, true. But there are many people, who don't have even water. Can you imagine life without water? Can you survive without water for just a  day? Definitely not. But there is a big part of Earth's population, which is forced to continue living without food and water. And yes, they couldn't and ultimately, they have to give up. They have to give up their life, and why is that. Because they don't even have water to drink. Just imagining this reality, far away from me scares me to my soul.


There are people, the fortunate ones, who have water, who have everything, because they have money. Its fair because they or their ancestors must have worked hard for it, but whats not fair, is those born poor, its not their mistake that they die infants, why because of the lack of drinking water, and on the other hand there are some who without thinking much are just wasting
'Precious' water.



Yes! Water is Precious, and so are other resources we are gifted by Earth. Don't you think you should take responsibility about it. If we have this gift, it doesn't give us right to destroy it.
Saving our own planet is our own responsibility. Its our home and we should be obliged for what we get because of it. So, why not just try a little, just do a bit, just make an effort to save it. I am not saying stop drinking water, or stop using other resources. All I am saying is use it wisely. Imagine a day without food, water, electricity, LPG, etc. And you will realize the struggle it is for those people to survive, the fight: fight for life. They have to go through a lot before getting a decent glass of drinking water. And there are a lot of regions all over the world, drinking water is not available, not for just one day but for ever. Electricity, LPG, food are what they don't even dream of. And yes they do die. They die, because of Us, they die because we are not serious enough towards this problem. Earth is a single place. What happens at one pole will affect the opposite pole also. So indirectly, their deaths is on us. But the good thing is we still have time, to correct our mistakes, to improve the future. We can surely save some future lives.


What we need to do is change our daily routine such that our new routine will help us save few ltrs of water. One liter of water saved can be a new day for someone far far away from us. Doesn't it feel good to know. Save electricity, optimize the use of the lights and other equipment, save fuels, minimize the use of products that could lead to one less tree. I am no expert in this section, I am not capable enough to teach you the Do's and Don't's in this part. But what I know is I realize the importance of the awareness. I know I have to do my bit, I know I will do my bit. I am willing to change a little, to cut a little from my comforts, because I want someone else to be able to survive. I know my luxuries are not worth their life, they don't deserve this. They deserve to live. And I am ready to help them.
And you can surely follow some simple steps if you really are in this. Here is a link, I find it worth sharing.

And I request you, reading it, to just do a little from your side, if you can't change your routine, you could be just a little more careful and at least not waste them. You could stop wasting water, wasting fuels.
Do your bit of good, It does feel good!! Because it is our Planet and we have to do something so that our own future generation could also have a life here. Our planet, Our home, our responsibility :)

Imperfection

We have all heard this sentence many times that No one is Perfect. And its very true indeed.
Lets take your example. You must have a friends or some relative who you absolutely can't bear. You tend to think negative about them all the time. Honestly I am no different. But think again. Pointing someone's mistakes all the time is no good trait. So are you perfect!
Yes no body is perfect. But this blog is not about that. It is about the perfect imperfections. Yes!! Imperfections are perfect. But only when you realize them and you work towards them.
Nature has its own way of creating a balance to everything. So if you get something bad you definitely has an equal good. Its just the way you look at it. What I found out till now is no one is a bad person, no one is not good enough, no one is an evil. Trust me what we think is bad might be good for them. Even if you are doing everything right, it isn't necessary that you are right in front of other people. Its just the way we look at each other. Imperfections are just God's way of telling us that we have a lot to do and a lot to learn, so we have to keep moving on. Imperfections are beautiful.
Perfect people doesn't exist. If you think you are a l'll more sensitive, I would say it is good to feel, if you say you lack emotions, I would say you are not entirely emotionless and less emotions are a great help too. If you work hard its good, if you don't its not bad.
Imperfections are good if you are happy with yourself, with what you are doing and what kind of person you are. Its just the way people look at you, and trust me what people think of you is neither correct nor reliable. It has to be you who introspects you. All I feel these days is do whatever you want to if it gives you happiness, doesn't affect your future negatively and is not a reason for someone else's sorrow. Rest it is your life, live with your gut feeling, live to make yourself happy, show yourself that you are a better person that you were yesterday, keep inventing yourself, go beyond your threshold.

Celebrating Diwali

Hi guys! Diwali festival is on the edge now. And all of Indians must be very excited about it I am sure. In this post I will be talking about how grateful I am for the life I have and for all the small things that constitute life.

Guys you know if you are capable of reading this blog it means you had the opportunity to learn the A B C D's. It means you were provided the chance to get educated. And also that you have the means to afford a PC or laptop. And you know that majority of people are not capable of this. For them getting 2 meals a day is a happy day, I won't even talk about the other 2 necessities of living!

 In this festive season we all are very excited, excited to shop, excited about the presents, about the sweets and fireworks, about the lights and decoration. And if you are thinking about all this stuff then trust me you are in the same exact place as me and I am really grateful for all of this. I am thankful to God who has helped me get mould as the person I am today and all the good or bad things in my life because they all make my life what it is today. And I am thankful to my parents who have sacrificed a lot for my happiness and gave up their dreams so that my dreams come true. Have a heart to heart talk with them and you will see a whole new side of them. I am thankful to my friends and family who supported me and who were always there for me. Without them my life would not be that good. If you can see a bit of your story in my words then you have a lot to be grateful.

But guys many of the people around us are not that fortunate. When you are ordering your maid to clean up your house think about how she is going to celebrate this Diwali. After all the work at your place would she be able to clean up her own house? Don't you think this year you should do a little good about it, just a small gesture to spread smiles. Help her in cleaning your own home. And if possible this Diwali instead of just throwing away the things you don't use anymore give it to them. Let them have a chance to smile this Diwali.
Again the poor people around you or the beggars or the garbage collector can't enjoy the festival in the way we do. For them it is no special day. So why not make this diwali special by making it special for others. Offer them food or sweets. Your little is alot for them. And the smile on their face would surely give you an immense pleasure.

I am thinking about my celebrating this diwali differenty. This year Diwali would be sweets, fireworks and smiles for not just me but for the less fortunate people around me also. Because I believe if God has given us enough for us, we could share a part of the rest. Because one less box of sweets means nothing to me but it would be enough for someone else. This Diwali I am going to try spreading the light of smiles. 
I am going to celebrate Diwali with many smiles around me :)
