We meet to part and we part to meet!

We meet to part and we part to meet! 

 

We cross paths for a reason. There is a divine purpose behind every soul we meet in this journey of life. Many a times, God sends just the right person who helps up in wading through difficult times. Whenever one feels in midst of challenging times, a gentle reminder that the situation is temporary and will pass off helps in facing it. Such challenges are ‘His” way of expressing his love, concern and the need for that particular soul to evolve.

The only thing constant in this universe is ‘Change’. Yet, we live life with certainty and seek stability. Still water stagnates, harbor algae formation. Everyone likes a change and seeks a break from the monotony/ routine. 

There are certain changes which our soul doesn’t approve. Like children leaving home, high school student entering college, graduation days nearing completion with hostel days coming to an end. Even changes as simple as changing one’s sleeping place, eating place, study pace, parking place, trying a different meal menu, to name few. What is constant, humans tend to fight against it, tries to go against nature. Many of us try to swim against the wave. The best approach at times is to have faith in God and swim with the wave. This gives the much required impetus and at times the much needed push.

“What you resist persists!” If one understands the meaning of these four words, life will appear in simplified view. All these thoughts churn in my mind. One of my friends was leaving for good and I was trying to reconcile with these thoughts.

The person who takes the forward step witnesses the beautiful view earlier than the person behind. So, he trudges with full faith and enthusiasm. Wishing my friend enough wisdom and luck, as I turn around my vehicle and head home, my Popsie’s golden words echo in my mind, “In life, we meet to part and we part to meet. These are two sides of the same coin – life. Enjoy the phase which life puts you in.” In many communities, one always says, “Till we meet again!” There are no goodbyes in this circle of life. We meet to part and part to meet.

Filled with renewed energy and power, I leave with a smile and hope. The flipside will be part to meet. So, enjoy life fully every moment on daily basis. Inculcate this habit.

(With every write up, I meet with my readers and part at the end with the hope of meeting again.)

Love you all,

Juju

Well said Juju !!
It’s so true that we try to resist changes in life and I feel this feeling gets stronger with age. It becomes even more difficult to move out of one’s comfort zone with age. Change is accepted more easily by the younger generation as for them every new thing is exciting and a challenge.
As you said it’s a circle of life and one has to go through it so better accept and enjoy the journey.
You pen down your thoughts beautifully and tickle the mind to think.
Keep writing.
Luv,
Kanika

Mam ji! Are we dirty ?

Visit to slums is inspiring. The smile on little children’s faces and their eagerness to see new books is unmatched. My JRC Mobile library runs every week and caters to 3 evening schools and around 50 children. These children are getting used to the idea of issuing fancy, glossy books (primary education) and returning too. They wait eagerly for every Thursday evening for JRC mobile library. Today, I decided to go early with a friend on my two-wheeler. As I steered my two wheeler on a rough patch towards slums, we could see many small children running towards us smiling, cheering and shouting.” Good afternoon mam ji! Namaste mam ji”. There is one particular boy who always greets me with the brightest smiles and expresses his eagerness to study in the evening school. Every time, he tells the same story, his parents didn’t agree. Afterall begging is easier, hard work is less and earning more. Today he came and said, "Mam ji, I have got my Aadhar card and have enrolled in your e

An Open Letter #Part 2

An Open Letter #Part 2 To, Children of the Universe, I can only try and understand what you are going through. I will not go into your life. Rather I want to give you a glimpse about my life at your age and maybe few years here and there. Have you ever felt – “I am alone, I have no friends, I feel weird, I am always left out while other groups join in for fun, I feel like an outcast, My friends talk to me only when they need me, I am always available for my friends and not vice versa, My friends don’t reply to my text messages or see the messages and just ignore and the worst feeling is –I wish I was dead. If the answer is yes, please proceed further.  I was youngest of all siblings. My facial features were unlike others in my family, broad nose, chinky eyes and fair complexion. At times, I felt alien in my own family. My elder sisters were brilliant in studies and toppers of their class and sections. I was a jovial, naughty soul who studied what was required to pass with dig

What men want?

What men want? (When they rebuke, ”Leave it, you can’t do it!”) Disclaimer: Such kind of blogs are generally penned to help few anonymous souls, who are seeking help in empowering themselves and to gain a better understanding of their roles. Any resemblance to anyone’s life is purely co-incidental . This phrase is very commonly used in our male dominated society. Males (not all) get a sadist satisfaction whenever they utter these words to the fairer sex. I leave it for the reader to read this phrase with appropriate pause and stress. The tone may be low, but their body language gives away the real feelings. I often discuss with my Popsie the difference between ego and self respect. As per my understanding, in self respect, one tends to protect one’s own dignity and never puts down the other person. Whereas in ego, all effort is done to humiliate, put down the other person. the work is done on the other person - the basic difference. Reader’s discretion is fully respected.  In lon
