AAhhhhh the luxury of being a woman........

No responsibility and all the FUN....

I have been enjoying life in the lap of luxury for a while, maids, shopping, parties and close to home,
life in these middle eastern countries is such a pleasure for a woman, I am enjoying it for a change, not doing much, just getting spoilt......No is not an answer to any wish, Alhamdolillah, All thanks and praise be to Allah....

I got Sudani Henna recently, I love Henna and here I can done it in variety of ways......

where is the peace on earth???where is the happiness we all seems to be wishing each other......

Everywhere I go I read and hear talks about how everyone is wishing this new year to bring happiness, resolutions on how they wanna stay fit, earn more, marry, have kids, stop smoking etc etc, makes me wonder
if life is all about I ME MYSELF.

Everyone is wishing happiness to each other but how is there going to be happiness if there is no peace,
but again if we are just talking about OURSELVES, if just us being happy in our warm cosy luxurious homes are enough for us than I suggest you sieze reading this post RIGHT NOW, cos right now I am thinking of US in a very broader sense, not us Indians, not us NRI's or not us thankless bunch of fortunate souls. US - humans, who in our daily grind have forgotten that we owe a lot more than living for cushioning oursleves to our utmost capacity.

My hands tremble when I pick up the newspaper these days, not sure if I want to thank UAE newspapers for bothering to present detailed world news but I definitely feel more informed as to what is happening around us everyday......

I dread looking at pictures reading news of the turbulence all over the earth, what is happening to the human race, seems to be going back to being an animal, shattering peace in the name of bringing peace is what seems to be happening.

We are now in the greatest global crisis in human history. "Crisis," means danger and opportunity. Never has it been possible for so few to kill so many. Most people want to do the right thing. But they choose the words and actions that cause conflict, waste, pollution, injustice and diminish freedom and order. "Almighty, forgive them. They know not what they do."

The best of words were always spoken by best of souls, but who's listening??
Let's not point fingers, lets look into ourselves, are WE listening???


Thomas a Kempis: First keep the peace within yourself, then you can also bring peace to others.

Marian Wright Edelman: [W]e are not going to deal with the violence in our communities, our homes, and our nation, until we learn to deal with the basic ethic of how we resolve our disputes and to place an emphasis on peace in the way we relate to one another.

Mark Twain:
Peace by persuasion has a pleasant sound, but I think we should not be able to work it. We should have to tame the human race first, and history seems to show that that cannot be done.

Martin Luther King, Jr.:
One day we must come to see that peace is not merely a distant goal we seek, but that it is a means by which we arrive at that goal. We must pursue peaceful ends through peaceful means.

Martin Luther King, Jr.:
True peace is not merely the absence of tension: it is the presence of justice.

Mohandas K. Gandhi:
Non-cooperation is a measure of discipline and sacrifice, and it demands respect for the opposite views.

Moshe Dayan:
If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.

Omar N. Bradley:
Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount.

Oscar Romero: Peace is not the product of terror or fear.
Peace is not the silence of cemeteries.
Peace is not the silent result of violent repression.
Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.
Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity.
It is right and it is duty.

There is a wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life -- happiness, freedom, and peace of mind -- are always attained by giving them to someone else.

The key objective is a change in the global state of mind -- reflected by mass media -- that will inspire the best in people and institutions.

Jab Jab bhi yeh socha hai dil thaam liya humne!
Insaan ke haathon se insaan pe kya guzri!!!!!!!!!

The Power called Passion

medium_passion_2.jpg

A person with no Passion has nothing.......

“Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you.” Oprah Winfrey

“None, but people of strong passion are capable of rising to greatness.” Comte de Mirabeau quotes French Writer


This one attitude can change your entire life for the better, a vital attitude for you to constantly improve is YOUR PASSION.

The key to a successful life lies in following your passions. When you do this the Universe responds in a dynamic way. This can only occur when one is fully engaged. We are taught from the time we are young to be practical to carefully consider the why and the how of things. This, my friends is a waste of precious time. The clue to each of our destinies lies in recognizing our deepest passions and becoming fully engaged in them. Give no thought……….

As to how they might be realized the Universe is far more capable in this regard then we could ever hope to be. If you have a dream, follow it. No matter how wild, outrageous, and improbable it may seem

Remember my passion? Remember my absolute certainty? These are the things the Universe responds to. Don't try and figure out how it will happen you'll only get in the way of things. Engage your passion and know with certainty and the universe will respond in ways you can't even imagine.

On a scale of 1 to 10, exactly how excited are you right now? Do you really want to succeed? Are you thrilled with your goals for today? If not, you must generate some passion for your day, your week and your life.

To succeed you must be a leader, if only a leader of one person: you.
