Desire to Move - To Grow

I GROW

 A resolute soul not only survives calamity, it grows  despite it. One may choose to give in the face of adversity, one may choose to crib, "the poor me", one may choose to argue, "why me God?"

This tree at Gulmarg has a different story to say. Yes, it is true that the branches were brutally ripped off. By man or by nature, I know not. By nature or by man, that it never discloses. All that it says is, "what had happened had happened, what next? The roots are still strong, the ground is still firm, the nature is still as resourceful, so the next is to grow. What had happened had happened, now it is time. 

Only to move on. No, not even that, it is time to move forward. For a resolute soul, times of adversities are the time when one chooses to grow! 

When your mind asks, what next? Believe me, good times have come - it is time to grow.

Words of hope with faith will sure propel us to a better stage in life.

At times, it is very difficult to understand the problem in front of us as we are thrown into it to drown.

But holding the mighty Almighty and bearing a tinge of hope n faith, we manage to cruise through the stormy situations.

A desire to move, a drive to hold onto the super power and a strong believe in who we are will sure aid us to move in the right direction.

Moving in the right path with a vision to reach a perfect destination is the process of growth and we do that for generations and we tag it as life.

Our life is our growth to make a circle of eternity.🙏🙏🙏

White Flowers

I grow

Flowers of white. But why? Is it a colour at all ? When there are somany vibrant colours, why should a flower be in white? I used to ask. Is it a choice for a flower? Can HE be wrong? 

Only then did I notice the green of the stalk that held the white. Only then did I notice the mild green lines on the dark green leaves. Only then did I see the pearly flowers on a grey background! 

Then I was told by science teacher that white is white only because it has all colours in it. 

I looked around,some are like that,they have it all in them, they show the less of themselves out, that their near and come out with flying colours. Have some doubt?- let's look at our parents. Ha, yes! Their hearts are as pure as these white flowers.

Stay Focused

I grow

This is my story - said the seed.  The moment I decide to grow, I focus. Focus on water and sun! What I focus on, there is my growth.

HE teaches us this with each seed that falls. So let's focus. Now is the moment. Focus on positivity, focus on good health, focus on fresh air filling the lungs, focus on a healthy society. When all these grow, we sure will outgrow.

Pandavara batti

 I GROW

Intention is all that it takes, to be of purpose. Much like this Pandavara batti. Even if you are a green leaf and yet you choose to shed light to ward off the darkness around, you will! Intention is all that it takes. With good intentions growth happens. 🙏

Even from a thorn a flower blooms

Even from a thorn a flower blooms

Let there be thorns, HE said. It will protect you! 

For a desert that is fine, but will I ever have a place in gardens, the cactus worried. Why didn't God think over it before he granted my wish, the cactus brooded over its fate. It was all till this morning, when this yellow flower bloomed on it. She picked it up and said, "Garden is not the place where you should be", she said as she placed it on the table in her living room. The cactus found a place that it can call it a home! God's will is always for HIS children . Sometimes it may be thorny, but wait, a day will come when you will flower.

Jasmine plant one morning

I Grow

This is what a simple is capable of, bringing in more smiles. HE wondered what would bring this about. That which is capable of smiling at everyone who pass by, from the moment it comes into existence. Thus was born this Jasmine plant. Whenever you feel like smiling, look for a jasmine.

Also it spreads so much fragrance from the evening itself, until the buds open fully in the morning.
