End : As a beautiful beginning!!!

What if the most dreadful thing in our life turns out to be a wonderful experience??
A different take on something most of us fear!!!

"***All my loved ones are around me...crying. Tears in their eyes, with a lot of love for me. I looked up to see where I am. Felt so wonderful for being so free. And a little bit pity for my loved ones. For they don't realize I am already on my way to a new experience. Floating in the wind, one with the sun & the moon, and all that is. With an unlimited power to create anything in a blink of an eye. What a wonderful experience, for I just couldn't explain how complete I feel. With a complete strength to move mountains, and to be with anyone just by wishing.

I wish I could say something to them, to make them happy. And explain the real fun of being where I am. I wish I could share this wonderful moment with all of them and make them smile again, then and there. For they have a purpose to be here, and enjoy the way they are. I still couldn't stop a part of me, being with them in their sorrow. Nonetheless, it's all for me, they feel. I don't need it, for I've moved on, and am begining to create the new world. And am already immersed in it. So, just wish that they forget all this, get going & enjoy life***"

For, "Death is not just an end, but a more beautiful beginning to a grander dream, and a grander creation".

-- A tribute to my granny who's one of the most loving person I know. We all miss you nanamma...but I think you're fine and happy :-)

Circles of Life

Life seems to be going in circles all the while. Just like the science classes we had as students. "Looks to be the same", is the thought which always crossed our minds. But, when we listen carefully, there's always something new in every class. Maybe that's what stretching our limits looks like. In a subtle way, we get used to what we always felt was right. And then, grow from there to new realities and knowledge. Not that this is the only way to go about, but the way most of us choose to. Or rather programmed to choose. Nevertheless, it's cool this way too.

The way we look at something moving in a spiralled coil. Look from the top, and it's always like moving in the same circle. And that's how we see life as, most of the time. We keep encountering the same situations, same people, same outcomes time and again in our life. But when we change our perspective, and look at the coil from the side, it's all clear that we're all moving in a new direction every moment. Maybe, that's what having a broader mind is all about. And that's the dictomy and beauty of the life too. As both the perspectives are true, and both are real. It's the perspective we choose that matters. And it need not be a constant either. As both are equally important in their own ways. Like it's said, "A leader should have both the birds-eye-view, and at the same time be able to "look into the details" of things. It's a balance of both the things which makes it wonderful.

Well, there's a third way, which we do naturally. After you reach a certain point, uncoil the path, and you find a straight line, showing the distance you travelled, and all the experiences in it. Maybe, this is what introspection is all about. We look at where we've reached, and realize that it's all so perfectly designed. Every experience we've had, is the only way it could have happened. And that gives a new perspective to the journey ahead.

Nothing is more, or less important. Having all the ways, makes the process complete and wonderful.
