Riding a Bicycle

Do you know to ride a bicycle? You may think what a silly question this is, of course everyone knows to ride a bicycle. Well, my question is when was the last time you ridden a bicycle? Probably your answer is, "It may be some time in the past during my school days". May be 5 or 10 years back depends on your present age. This was my honest answer too.

We had moved to 250cc bike to travel a distance less than 250m !!!

We had moved to sophisticated four wheelers to cover the distance that could be easily covered on a casual walk.

Do you have any idea, what effect does this change impacts on our physical health?

I like to share my experience. I still remember the beautiful time in my past (May be 7 or 8 years back) where i used to go to school by bicycle. May be that inspiration induced me to use a bicycle yesterday to cover 1.5KM distance. I hardly used bicycle in the past 6 years but still I decided to use a bicycle since there are no other vehicle is available at that instant.

Bicycling

It was not even 15 min since i started bicycling..

It was not even 500 meters i crossed...

I felt i took very bad decision in my life because i was totally exhausted. I was panting hard. My clothes were totally wet with sweat drops. I could very hardly move further. (May be I hope the bicycles spare parts are in worst condition !!! or my body spare parts itself???)

I just realized my human body very badly lacks physical exercise all these years.

Then it took 40 minutes to reach my destination, I finally did it :) What an achievement??

Well my point is,

How much we do care to maintain a good health?

We always fail to realize that the groundwork of all happiness in this world is good health

Driving a car isn't fun if you have pain in your legs

Even s***x is not pleasurable if your back hurts.

I use this sentence to strongly emphasize the fact that nothing in this world gives pleasure or happiness if you loose your physical health.

If your daily schedule very hardly permit you to got to the gym or to follow a diet plan.

Take a casual walk whenever you have time. (Make this pleasurable by walking on a beach with your loved ones)

Ride a bicycle to cover small distance. (This is very far better than getting frustrated while waiting for a green signal inside an air conditioned car).

Take time to give concern to maintain good physical health.

Stay healthy and Be happy :)

What lights up Diwali?

For children it may be the light in the crackers,

For teens, it may be their new clothes

For colleagues, it may be the glass of beer with their friends

For lovers, it may be the candle light dinner together

For newly married, it may be the surprise gifts from each other

For long distance love affair's, it may be the single call for wishing from their loved ones

For Parents, it may be the the smile in their children's face

For middle aged, it may be their new gadgets

For old aged, it may be seeing all their children and grand children together

Who ever it may be, the thing that lights up Diwali will be something special. The special thing will definitely be the joy and happiness that comes in abundance from the loved ones. Festivals like Diwali enhances our hidden potential to express love and gratitude to others.

Rainy Day

It is a beautiful rainy day today in my hometown, I really think it was beautiful, I came across many rainy days while i am in city in my strict daily schedule, but i very rarely notice the beauty and happiness hidden inside a normal rainy day in the city.

I thought how many of them residing in cities who follow a strict daily schedule enjoy a rainy day they came across on a working day?

What do you really think if it rains when you start to office?

Do you hate being late to office because of rain? or Do you love travelling on rain?

Do you hate wearing rain coats while driving? or Do you enjoy getting wet by rain?

Do you think of loss of pay? or Do you think the climate is beautiful?

If your honest answers to all the questions above is negative, then is there any single day in your life you enjoyed traveling to office in hot sun?

If the answer is no, Then what we do really enjoy?

The project deadlines, the client meetings, office tensions will always be there. But a beautiful rainy day is a very small thing we can enjoy rather than hating it.


A view of a Cross Road in a Rainy Day took in front of my home

Enjoying a rainy day is one of the very little things in life that brings happiness in life on the go. We don't have to spend in thousands on a party or on a beach resort that only brings an illusion of artificial happiness.

Let us take time to enjoy very little things on life on the go, One day we look back and realize those were big things. :)

Worry

Worries become the part of your life? Then follow the following image

You Can Do It

You Can Do It
You aren't the first to fall.
Everyone, no matter how successful,
suffers pain, loss,
and disappointment.

And no road to a dream is
smooth or paved in gold.
But some qualities separate
the winners from the losers:

The winners may not be smarter
or more talented,
but they have faith that
great things are ahead.

They stay calm when the
tempest beats at their shore
They know that storms never last long,
and they don't let their dreams dissolve
beneath a bit of rain.

Don't give up!
You can do it!

The Comfort Zone - Inspiring story

Once there was a king who received a gift of two magnificent falcons from Arabia. They were peregrine falcons, the most beautiful birds he had ever seen. He gave the precious birds to his head falconer to be trained.

Months passed and one day the head falconer informed the king that though one of the falcons was flying majestically, soaring high in the sky, the other bird had not moved from its branch since the day it had arrived.

The king summoned healers and sorcerers from all the land to tend to the falcon, but no one could make the bird fly. He presented the task to the member of his court, but the next day, the king saw through the palace window that the bird had still not moved from its perch. Having tried everything else, the king thought to himself, "May be I need someone more familiar with the countryside to understand the nature of this problem." So he cried out to his court, "Go and get a farmer."

In the morning, the king was thrilled to see the falcon soaring high above the palace gardens. He said to his court, "Bring me the doer of this miracle."

The court quickly located the farmer, who came and stood before the king. The king asked him, "How did you make the falcon fly?"

With his head bowed, the farmer said to the king, " It was very easy, your highness. I simply cut the branch where the bird was sitting."

We are all made to fly -- to realize our incredible potential as human beings. But instead of doing that, we sit on our branches, clinging to the things that are familiar to us. The possibilities are endless, but for most of us, they remain undiscovered. We conform to the familiar, the comfortable, the mundane. So for the most part, our lives are mediocre instead of exciting, thrilling and fulfilling.

So let us learn to destroy the branch of fear we cling to and free ourselves to the glory of flight
