Smile-ism
There are people who have read many articles and watched many videos n pictures related to the people at Africa, Sudan, India, Cambodia, etc who are suffering from poverty, malnutrition, aids and many other such fatal diseases. I myself have read and watched those stuffs too and that made me cry like hell, took my sleep away for nights. Believe me it’s really heart wrenching to know what kind of pain those people are going through. But still, all we do is just say.. “Oh God! koi inke liye kuch karta kyun nahi?” “kya kisi ko inka dard nahi dikhta?” “sarkaar ko aisa karna chahiye unke k liye…..waisa karna chahiye…..ye kyun nahi karte log, waisa kyun nahi kiya logon ne…?” n so on. We do these kind of discussions at office cafeterias, college canteens, parks etc expressing our so called “concern”. But guys have we ever thought..”What can ‘I’ do for them?” Naah! Time kahan hai humare paas…hai na? Khud se fursat mile to na sochen..kyun? Aur waise bhi duniya me kitni problems hai…right from global warming to aids, from terrorism to food adulteration to global meltdown, from submissions of projects and assignments to patauing a gf/bf..pheeww! Ab itna kuch kaise bichare hum jhel sakte hai…ufff?! To thik hai….forget all the tensions…can you?..... Lo! Woh bhi nai hota….ab tension keh dene se to dur hoti nahi…right? Well then I would say…guys…keep aside your simple logics….n try to apply dil-logic instead. Just practice “Take it easy-policy”.. Huh! Ab isse humara kya faida hoga? Yaar kabhi to khud ke faide ki chodo…kyun itne selfish ho yaar? Actually sudhar to hum sakte nahi kyunki hum to hain hi selfish, to thik hai then lets Be selfish guys… Yup you read it right… “Be selfish…but in a positive sense and with a positive motive”. Like we all want to be happy, we all want to aquire wealth and rewards. Par when we try to be happy for ourselves…we find it difficult to even get a smile on our own. But guys you might have noticed..when you make others smile or laugh..you automatically get a smile on your face too. Ab jab kisi aur ko khush karke khud ko khushi milti hai…to kyun na wahi kare? Try to do anything…no matter how silly or intelligent it may seem, just to make someone smile…and am sure you’ll end up smiling too..hui na selfish act? It could be a phata-joke or a friendly prank or a comedy series you gift your folks such as “F.R.I.E.N.D.S”, any funny video or anything.. Just try to Be the reason for someone to smile….and trust me when you recollect all those incidents, you’ll be so full of life! For instance, I remember when I was a kid I used to go to my school from a bus, so while returning from school I loved to sit by the window of the bus, smile n wave my hands to the strangers whoever passed by and guess what? Those people used to reciprocate me the same..they used to smile n wave hands to me too..and I used to smile all the way home..lol! When I still recall those small yet sweet incidents..i just smile and that thought makes my day! There were so many things we used to do when we were kids..hai na? But I don’t know what has happened to us as we grew up…? Why we need to handle life so seriously all the time..? Why don’t we continue those silly pranks with our folks now? Actually it’s not just those people at some regions who are suffering from deadly things…..are miserable. But the reality is, we all are suffering from some or the other problem..and so somehow in our so called ‘beezee lives’ we often find it difficult to Smile even….! When we make others happy….. that happiness bounce back at us too and that is what our biggest rewards are.. to which no nobel prize can ever compare… You see nobody will ever remember how u look, how u speak or what you did, but only thing they remember life long about you is how you made them Feel..that’s reality! We just have to Try to make things lighter around us, speacially if the atmosphere is quite intense..For ex. If your friend is fighting with you, just stop for a second in between, think of something funny and say.. “yaar chill maar..! teri naak laal ho jati hai jab bhi tu gussa karti hai..” and see the reaction…you both will end up laughing. Well my point is..you don’t need to wear a clown’s costume n paint your face funny, to make someone smile.. you can do it in your day to day life just by doing something silly or funny.. it would make the other person happy..though just for a while, but it would surely make your day.. trust me! Like when you go to some ice-cream parlour and while enjoying with your friends you see a little girl in ragged clothes staring at you..then you can just buy an ice-cream and give it to her..she would be so happy that she would narrate the whole incident to her family and friends with immense happiness….can you believe it? Just one ice-cream can make that kiddo so happy? Well..big things come in small packages….n so does happiness! I feel we don’t need to join any organization like UNICEF or NGO’s etc to help others..because the people in need, cannot be just satisfied with money..but they also need someone just to care for them and make them smile. So lets become an organization ourselves..like Charlie Chaplin..he was a factory, generating happiness! No matter if we don’t have enough money to save them but atleast we can make them smile. Who knows..may be that smile do wonders? Even if we succeed in saving just one life….it would certainly fulfill the meaning of our lives to an extent. So friends, get your own happiness by creating a little happiness for others because when you are good to others..You are Best to yourself! Let this community be a medium where we all can meet and share all those silly-funny incidents of life we ever experienced which give us a smile everytime we recall them. Just try to take out 10 minutes to do so…everyday. Convert all our worries n tensions into a joke just for the sake of a smile..aftrall nobody wants to cry.. so why not Take it easy?? We can also share and discuss ideas of how we can spread this “Smile-ism” to others! Remember, whatever we give away, it returns back….so lets Be Selfish n make others happy and let that happiness bounce back to us in 3 folds!

" Kyu "
Kyun aise baithe ho…?
Kya meri yaadon aaj phir tumhari aankhen namm kar di?
Apne haatho se in aansuon ko ponch lo..
Ki ab mere haath tumhe chu nahi sakte..
Janta hun ki tum samajhte ho ki main tumse dur hun..
Nahi! E na samajh ye jism ka rishta to dhokha hai,
Aankhon ko moondkar mujhe mehsus to karo..
Meri rooh tumse juda nai hai,
Kyun aise baithe ho….?
Jao….So jao…
Kya meri yaadon aaj phir tumhari aankhen namm kar di?
Apne haatho se in aansuon ko ponch lo..
Ki ab mere haath tumhe chu nahi sakte..
Janta hun ki tum samajhte ho ki main tumse dur hun..
Nahi! E na samajh ye jism ka rishta to dhokha hai,
Aankhon ko moondkar mujhe mehsus to karo..
Meri rooh tumse juda nai hai,
Kyun aise baithe ho….?
Jao….So jao…

Conversation With God
God: This is God. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.
Me: I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something.
God: What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.
Me: Don’t know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. Its rush hour all the time.
God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
God: Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
Me: I understand. But I still can’t figure it out. By the way, I was not expecting you to buzz me on instant messaging chat.
God: Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.
Me: Tell me, why has life become complicated now?
God: Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated. Me: Why are we then constantly unhappy?
God: Today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.
Me: But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
God: Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional. But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.
God: Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
Me: If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
God: Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer. With that experience their life becomes better not bitter.
Me: You mean to say such experience is useful?
God: Yes. In every term, experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.
Me: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can’t we be free from problems?
Me: But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can’t we be free from problems?
God: Problems r purposeful roadblocks offering beneficial lessons to enhance mental strength. Inner strength comes 4m struggle and endurance, not when u r free 4m problems.
Me: Frankly, in the midst of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading.
God: If you look outside, you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.
Me: Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do?
God: Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.
God: Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.
Me: In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
God: Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.
Me: What surprises you about people?
God: When they suffer they ask, “Why me?” When they prosper, they never ask, “Why me.” Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the truth.
Me: Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here. I can’t get the answer.
God: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.
God: Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.
Me: How can I get the best out of life?
God: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
God: Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
Me: One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered? God: There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is No.
Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so happy to start the new day with a new sense of inspiration.
God: Well, keep the faith and drop the fear. Don’t believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. Don’t expect a great day, make one coz Today is the First day of ur REST OF LIFE !!!.
