Dear friends,

You cannot afford to drown in the sea of negative, depressing news and/or views, as a responsible professional looking to extend own area of influence by focus and positivity.. Here comes a whole new world of avenues to fill your mind with hope and solace, as you get exasperated after consuming an increasingly saddening barrage of information that serves no real purpose.. I am not suggesting you don't pick up the newspaper or you stop giving weightage to reality in your life and lifestyle.. But honestly, I would want the choicest mediahouses to serve stories that lift, enthuse and empower the audience, most of whom have no alternative to getting and staying up-to-date about what is happening in which part of the world.. Again, I am not saying, they should not disseminate facts, or that they should stick to 5 Ws, 1 H format of the news, which basically robs the reporter of developing a hard-earned style of work.. But, in my humble opinion, it is about time we decide to choose better, brighter, more brilliant sources of news.. And I cannot emphasize enough the perils of yellow journalism and heartless reporting, as well as the upside there inevitably is to perusal of positive, hope-inducing, mind-enriching reportage.. If you feel inundated by the reports of what's wrong with the world, you might as well shift the paradigm, and take some cues from the ever-growing tribe of journalists who wish to make a lasting, measurable and rewarding impact with their stories.. Apply the 'Scan and Skim' technique of acing reading comprehension, as you learned in middle school.. All said and done, would you take out time from your strenous schedule, just to be informed more conducively and to be treated to a wealth of information that is consequential and remarkably effective in the long run.. Think about it, and start questioning your go-to application or portal, in order to not be at your wit's end after your regular efforts to keep abreast of current affairs.. In a nutshell, read and listen to what helps, heals and reinforces hope, if you wish to feel good about the world and to be able to think fresh, clear and reinvigorating thoughts every day.. Somebody wise has laid thrust on choosing your thoughts just like you choose your clothes every day.. And, trust the positive effects of intentional, selective reading just like Yours-truly has been experiencing for quite some time now.. Take care of yourselves, dearies.. Because, reading to lead is the order of the day, besides your right to expect better from your trusted news-source gaining traction.. Take a chill-pill, and chuck the road accidents, murders, rapes and robberies, that leave you nonplussed, to say the least.. Trust and try the power of good news, so as to not take the bait of cynicism or of debilitating thoughts about incorrigible and unmitigable human behavior.. We all deserve better than that.. Cheers..

Do you agree here? Do let me know..

प्यार। इश्क। मोहब्बत।

एक बार एक सुखी, चार दशकों से शादीशुदा कपल को देखकर एक युवा कपल ने पति से पूछा, "आपके सफल वैवाहिक जीवन का राज़ क्या है?"

उसपर जो उत्तर उन्हें मिला, वो सही अर्थों में सभी के लिए प्रेरक है। उन्होंने कहा, "मेरी बीवी पिछले चालीस वर्षों से हर रोज़ ब्रेड-टोस्ट जला रही है, पर मैंने कभी उससे नहीं पूछा, 'क्यों?'। आखिर सही मायने में सफल प्यार वही होता है, जिसमें आदर और सहिष्णुता हो। हम मीन-मेख निकालने जाएं, तो कई मिल जाएंगे। मगर हम खुश रखने, वफा करने, साथ निभाने के कारण ढूँढें, तो वे कमियों से भी ज़्यादा पाएंगे। हमपर निर्भर है कि हम हमारे चुनाव, हमारे फैसले को सही साबित करेंगे, या कि गलत।"

💯 प्रतिशत सत्य। प्यार निभाने, और इश्क से मोहब्बत तक पँहुचने से ज़्यादा पावन अहसास वाकई में नहीं है। सुखी रहें, सुखी रखें, यही सभी प्रेमी-युगलों के लिए सदिच्छा। चाहत बड़ी चीज़ है। क्या आप सहमत हैं?

The Beloved's Grace..

I wish to find, get married to a guy who is nice to others, even to hostile people, without rubbing it in.. Somebody who is just good, and is convinced about the same.. And, somebody who understands the wisdom about it all.. He would be my heart-throb, my kind of a partner, who has no axe to grind in our bonding.. That special-someone would not be a task to understand, and relate with.. Rather, he would make me a better person, and do so gladly, with all due respect.. The man I would happily call my "Soulmate".. I shall wait (patiently and proactively) until and unless I am able to deserve such a persona.. And, once I have found him, I shall not let go of him.. Because, my love for him deserves every iota of hope, trust, faith, and a sense of security that no one else can bring.. Then, I would be proud of myself.. Love is like that..

SHEROES Love

This and every emotion that @Sheroes app inspires within as well as around me is quite inexplicable.. Still I shall give it a shot..Parents, grandparents, friends and cousins, everybody has a special place in our life.. I think that #Sheroes has come to define me and my identity in a similar manner over the past one year or so.. I loved the non-judgmental, non-prejudiced and unconditional affection it showered [=) and still does] upon me and women at all the edges of the Woman's spectrum.. There is a sense of appreciation that one gets over here that is truly unique to #Sheroes, and no other site falls remotely in its place in my life.. I have been a Shero in my eyes for the longest of time.. But it is this platform that has really managed to lift my spirits and the confidence needed to deal with the world with my head held high.. I have, T.B.H., availed their Counseling feature, and though it did not exactly help me in my problem, yet it gave me new perspective to understand it better so that I work on myself to steer clear of the hurdles in my path, that are as real as anybody or anything else.. Women over here have made me understand my strengths and also gave valuable insights into my own being with the help of self-discovery Prompts and contests.. I recommend #Sheroes to each and every woman who needs that sacred space where she will be respected and understood and accepted.. I think one can become Super #Sheroes not just by posting good content at Sheroes platform, but by making the optimum use of its scale, positivity and prettiness that it overflows with.. My cup overrunneth with love, joy and peace, thanks to my #SHEROESLove.. Thank you for reading till the end.. Cheers..

My Dearest Kids,this one is for you..

When a boy becomes a brother,

How does he take such special care, you wonder..

I say, this isn't a myth, abiding love for younger sibling,

No matter how before the birth of the sis/bro, he would be the reigning king..

The new addition's diapering makes him reminisce of how we bonded in the initial months,

He sometimes laments there is too much going on around him,

But the fact is he is not dim..

All that he sees in the infant is a friend, a new avenue of loving care,

He does try to lift the baby and walk around,

But time has flown, and now they go together to the play ground..

How I love the protective, strong, doting big brother my elder baby has been,

He had his insecurities and share of envy, and that I really mean..

But today, when park made me recall what only we both used to indulge in,

I see God in my first co-creation with my dear darling..

And I can say that the popsicle which my second child is waiting to be bought,

My elder kiddo had once upon a time sought..

There is no such demand from him now, he's over that craze,

And my children never fail to amaze..

Because he quickly went for the water bottle in my bag,

As my newest baby struts around with many a pink & blue tag..

I see why my husband calls him Dada, and not by his name,

Nothing is how it used to be, yet everything is the same..

"Always love your siblings, they are the anchors you would have even after we are gone from the world.."

~Proud Parent of noticeably fast and palpably furious sweethearts (that is the Hope..)
