can people hurt you.

Yes people can hurt you only if you allow them to do so. You can be hurt only if you decide to. You can really choose your own mood. You can be happy when you want to and not when you dont want. But saying this easier.
I would like to relate to an incident that happened today. I don't drink tea and coffee and the whole class knows this. The lecturer while giving an example of his mother said, she doesnt drink tea or coffee but drinks blood. That she likes drinking blood of his. And my class roared into laughter. I noticed only people who had problems with me in the past contimued laughing. I instantly knew the reason and felt hurt. They were the people who constantly bitch about me.
Somewhere I could control my reaction to this and feel calm only because of some other learnings which suggested the first line. I can troubled only if i wish to. And this helped me keep my calm. Inner strength really made me more strong enough and i am feeling happy inspite of anything. But yes it is difficult. definitely but not impossible.

relief

i just completed an assignment which i had to submit long back. And i felt so relieved. I suddenly felt so happy about one task getting over.
Why do we feel relieved? what is it that happens when we get relieved. Is it that now we can stop the thought process over a chronic issue? maybe these chronic thoughts move over in our mind for so much time that we just tend to get sick of them. Then we try to find a solution which will help us stop thinking on the problem. That is where we really start analysing and finding newer and newer innovative solutions to a given problem. Then putting them down we are even more happier. But yes the ultimate point is when we communicate to someone (say by mail, talks whatever) that we get the eternal feeling of relief. We tend to feel more relived and happy by telling the whole world that i am happy..isnt it so?

struggle

this blog would just say about all that just comes to my mind.. all of a sudden.
What do you think we live for? what do we really want out of life? and then why do we ever want something?
I think we live for various experiences in life. remember when kids we would love to go to a zoo just to see the animals. go see them know their names.. tell friends.oh i ve seen a tiger..deer, and many more.. and after the whole description is over ask the friend ..ask the friend have you ever seen all that i saw today??? did the extra edge over your friend of seeing something before hand make you happy, or did you feel bad that your friend has not seen or experienced that what you just did..?
We go travelling..why? is it because we get bored out of the monotonous lifestyle we live everyday..? maybe yes. we go for an outing..enjoy with a feeling ..oh my trip will end someday..i ll have to go back to the mundane activities..but didnt you really feel relieved when you came back home.. and did a hush!! at last,I am home.
Can it be true that our life is also like a trip and we will back somewhere one day to feel better?
