Children of Grace

A son becomes a father, a father becomes a son. Three generations that can match as one when the three are met.

I am privileged to have a father that is of grace and a son who is an angel to my life. The warmth of my father's hand on my head and the hug of my son makes me feel life is worth for all that it gives.

I feel the love of my father to me when I see my son, a new found love has been created for my father in the love towards my son. The care and warmth he showed me as a child, the nurture and love that was a part of my daily life growing up is seen in the beauty that my son is being.

While I thank my father for making me a good human, I thank my son for making me realize how beautiful life is. He can laugh at the most silliest things and forgets the scolding he received in the least amount of time.

There is never a bitterness of the past and never a want of the future. He is always in the present living in the moment. No plans of tomorrow, no thoughts of the yesterday. Just a memory we sometimes recollect to have a smile and just a day to plan to go to the beach or the park or the mall.

The child is born with the grace of god and is the guidance for most of us parents. But most of the time, we choose to ignore the requests of the child in the maturity of our ego not our consciousness.

A child is the most conscious of his/her soul that we adults are ever to be. We choose to follow the way of life without realizing the duties of our soul. The growth of our bodies leads to the decay of our soul and its pain.

If we as adults were to imitate our children, this world would be a better place.

LOVE 7, choose 7 children whom you do not know to share the love with them. An orphanage would be a good place to start with. Be there with them, don't take goods and materials to make them happy. Share a game, a day, a time to make them happy. Let them know that there is a person who cares for them.

Just make a difference in 7 such children's lives and you will see the world will become a much more beautiful place.

Love 7, is the new way of life. Not for the world but for the child in us to be awakened and to make the soul conscious of our body and mind.

Love – An understanding

"I love you"

"I cannot live without your love"

"Your love makes me complete"

These are some of the most common phrases used to describe love. Yet we see a lot of divorce and separation taking place in the world and people around us.

Do we truly understand the meaning of this word,"LOVE"

As per the dictionary love means:

noun

noun: love; plural noun: loves

1.       a strong feeling of affection.

·         a strong feeling of affection and sexual attraction for someone.

·         affectionate greetings conveyed to someone on one's behalf.

·         a formula for ending an affectionate letter.

2.      a great interest and pleasure in something.

3.      a person or thing that one loves.

4.      (in tennis, squash, and some other sports) a score of zero; nil.

It has become as empty as its meaning, nothing specific and not a direct guide to what the meaning actually is.

The origin of the word is from a German and old English word lufu, which means "desire".

From the definitions shared above we should ask our selves what is the meaning of I love you as a statement. I desire you, I cannot live without your desire, your desire completes me.

Which would seem so worthless for the love to exist forever, the marriage or the relation is bound to end when love has such a shallow interpretation.

Love is about giving and sharing. Not about wanting or taking. A relationship only will last the test of time when there are two or more people who would want to keep giving love to the other instead of being desirous of an expectation from the other.

Love is then a beautiful word that can create ripples in our relation and the person who we want to share the emotion with. It also makes us conscious of who we should love and care for.

LOVE 7, spend 7 minutes of your day telling the person who you think you love, why you love them. It is less than a percent of the time in a day and yet these 7 minutes are going to make the change that your relation has a need for. The choice is in your hands.

You can make the difference by just letting the love flow from a receiving to a giving. From a wanting to an offering. The river flows towards the person and you will see a change in your life. The life that you dreamt of, the love that you wanted by giving the love without any expectation of want.

Love 7 will be your help to change the way you make your life and your relation so much better.

Making a difference

I have lived a life worthy of happiness, but yet there is anger, hate, jealousy, bitterness. The life that I can choose to make better is but a place that I can make sad and frustrating.

With the world making a turn for the worse, there is a motivation to be bitter and sad. Making each day ever more depressing than the previous. We have created a shell of resentment which gives us happy.

Making the blame possible because of someone around us or external to our self is so much more a way of life than a reason to change our selves. We are the reflection of our thoughts and our emotions. We make the difference only by being who we want to be.

The question then comes who am I? and what is the reason for such depression around us. The law of attraction states that what we think is what we receive. Then, why are there happy people who are sad? why is there grief in a family who is always doing good for others? what makes the world move with so much of hate and bigotry.

The answer to all these questions is with the person in the mirror. The person who wants to make it happen. You and I are the people who make terror exist, you and I are the cause of all that is happening in the world.

So make the difference. Stop promoting TV where there is hate, help someone who you do not know and make the difference. LOVE 7 spread the love to 7 people who you do not know and let them be a part of your life. Let them know that they are the reason for their smile. Then we have an epidemic of love that will spread to every corner of this earth to make the world a better and greener place.

When we choose to make love a residence of our soul, we choose to make the world a better and greener place, we choose to make a difference in the world we live it. The choice is to be of the individual to help others and in directly help the self by spreading the love to the masses and ensuring the love continues.

May we all start by smiling at the other irrespective of their caste, creed, colour, race, ethnicity or any other reason that we have created to differentiate each of us from the other.

Love 7 the mantra to make 7 people who we do not know to make the difference and that will make the change that we are looking for to happen. 

Love 7

Love 7

It is this life that we live and we live it only once.

The happenings in the world today make one depressed with the killings, the hate, the anger and the multitude of feelings that come when we look at the news channel. In all of this, we forget to look next to us.

The house we live in, the family we share our meals with, the office we go to, the transportation we use to reach our destinations.

There is so much of love and kindness around us, we just have to touch this one part of our lives to feel blessed and the we see our world change around us.

Love is not about receiving but about giving. If each one of us could time to express the gratitude and love we have for the other, we could see a change in our lives. There is only one person who can make the change and the person is "I".

Love 7, is not a thought or an obligation. It is the 7 minutes of the day that we can spare for our family, friends, relatives, associates or well wishers. The time we take to say a good thing about them.

Imagine if you have 7 people telling you good things about your self in a day, wouldn't that be a place of heaven for you. Would you like to make this heaven for someone you know.

Spend 7 minutes to say 7 things good about the person you know. Even if it is someone you hate or dislike you may spend sometime to say something good about the person in your mind. Do not have to go and say it in the open. You can have a conversation with yourself to say something good to them.

We can change the world and its misfortunes only if we change ourselves and the people around us.

Love 7

Why should I be a spiritual being?

A normal question that is asked by the multitudes is, “why should I be spiritual?” or “what is spirituality?”

It is explained with simplicity in a single statement, how would I want to be treated if I were to expect others to treat me in the same way?

Some of us without being aware are already following spirituality and are spiritual in our own nature. We do not have to visit temples, churches, mosques or any other religious place to be related to divine and follow divinity. We are beings blessed with the abundance of knowledge and power to make the best of ourselves. See the world around you that you live in and you will see the blessings that you are cherished with.

There is a lot of abundance in the fact of we as beings and spirituality have a connect. While we cannot see or feel the divine in the flesh, many of us have experienced the works of the divine in our daily lives. We have seen the bliss of nature and the acts of god without even realizing it.

Spirituality is very much different to religion, some have an understanding that spirituality is religion. Fortunately, none of the founders of the said religions ever mention or aim to create the religion that is being propagated and followed today. We are lambs of society. For we live in what we are told to believe and not what is being understood to be the truth. Those who chose to reason and understand the ways of god are the ones who are shunned and pushed away till it is a little too late to appreciate them when they were alive.

In simple, spirituality is the search of the divine within one’s self. The truth of the yin and yang within each of us. We do not have to compare or relate to anyone but our very own self. The true spiritual being is independent of all thoughts, words, actions and deeds. He/She lives in the bliss of making themselves happy without selfishness, greedy, bias, hate or treachery. There is nothing to want more than satisfaction in what they have or what they get.

If you find yourself in the description above, you can believe that you are spiritual and are part of the process where the awakening is happening for you and the people you associate with. Be happy and glorious in your existence and provide the space for the others around you to grow in their bliss and happiness. For then, we all would be spiritual, with or without knowing.
