THOSE UPLIFTING SPARKLES

teaserbox

The night is same,

Dark and vast,

And lifted with gloom,

Like any other night.

But today is special,

As bright fireworks,

Like positive uplifting agents,

Brighten up the gloom,

Again and again,

As though no force of darkness,

Could ever stop them.

Yes, Diwali is here again,

To lift us up from the gloom.

 

In the cruel expense,

Of the stark dark night,

Fireworks fill,

With pristine sparkles of hope,

It’s darkness again,

Wiping the sky and the night,

To be barren and gloomy,

All over again,

But the resilient fireworks,

Are all here,

Indefatigable and committed,

And they brighten the night,

To lift us up,

Again from the ruins.

The way life moves,

Is very much akin,

To this dark sky.

Some benevolent souls,

Like these pristine fireworks,

Always try to exhibit goodness,

In spite of the sorrows and obstacles,

Those they incessantly,

Have to go through.

 

Dauntless in every move,

While sorrow still engulfs them,

They crawl, they creep,

And push them forward,

To that little bit of goodness,

So as to brighten,

The souls of many a suffering life.

 

Many these brave souls,

Continue to brighten,

The gloomy world around us.

Let this Diwali engulf us,

With these beautiful thoughts,

And make us look forward,

With the hope and belief,

That darkness can always,

Be brightened again.

god loves you in every condition religion quote

When you are angry with your life and have questions in a queue, staring up at the sky you throw it together at the Almighty. But you never wait to hear the answer, today the below lines will explain beautifully what God has to say to his angry child.

Whenever the sky turns black and the noise goes silent

Whenever the speech vanishes and people get violent

Do not fear, I will be there

Whenever people change for no good reason

As the sweat changes to shivering season

Do not fear, I will be there

There can be a lot of mess all around

Unwanted people may surround

Do not fear, I will be there

As you lose all your hopes

Emptiness eventually gropes

Do not fear, I will be there

As the flashing light may go off

The darkness may scoff

Do not fear, I will be there

When you believe you are nothing

As you are about to give up everything

Do not fear, I will be there

When you need to share your dilemma and tremor

But you find yourself alone in the middle of nowhere

Do not fear, I will be there

When you need to put an end to this misery however

As you are about to stop breathing and lessen your pain and Trevor

I will now give you a new reason to smile, live and to cherish this endeavour

Because my dear…do not fear, I will be there forever

Every person faces some or the other problem in his/her lifetime. The real problem starts when your teenage comes to an end; the end of your carefree life and then the real problem begun. This is so because people in their 20s are taking a perplexingly long time to grow up these days. According to the recent report, the youth at the age of their 20s are still stuck in the phase of arrested development. So, here are some of the reasons why your 20s are really the worst years of your life:

1. Everything is Ahead of You:

In your 20s, everything is ahead of you, still, you have no idea what to do next and how to get from point A to point B. The happiness in your life is staggering behind, particularly in emotional areas.

2. Covetousness:

At this age, many of your friends and other people have accomplished a lot more than you in the same amount of time and you can’t seem to get out of your dead-end job despite a degree in your hand. So, there might be a chance of one being covetous towards other.

3. Everything is a Balancing Act:

In your 20s, it’s easy to slip and it’s easier to fall. Everything is a balancing act and the path is the precarious one. You don’t even know if you’re on the right path or not. As uncertainty is everywhere.

4. Relationship Goals:

Your closet relationship isn’t working at all. You try to make it better but still you can’t seem to make it better. In fact, you see yourself making it worse. No one comes into the marriage with fully prepared deals and also with all the challenges that lie ahead in your life. Fantasies, secrets, trust issues and moreover family issues all have to be worked out.

In your 20s, you suck at life and as a result, you’re hoping from one personal crisis to the other. Everything appears to be a mere drama.

The Sturdy Pekingese

mixed other puppy picture d fda b  fedbbf

So how have you been? Yeah, I know. I know right. Not a day can go wrong when you’re with that poodle puff of yours. However the day might have been, those silky furs and glassy eyes keep it’s self-promise too well. It has its way through you.

For this write-up, I decided to settle on one of the prettiest dog breeds on planet Earth. Yeah! You must be known to it already – Pekingese.

Tracing Their Origin

imagesThe origin of the Pekingese can be as long as 2000 years ago in the land of Western China, fondly called Peke – a cute nickname, isn’t it? They are also known as Lion Dogs for their close resemblance to the Guardian Lions of China. They used to accompany Buddhist monks. Also were they famous among the royalties both as lap and companion dogs? Unlike the Lhasa Apsos, the features of the breed have changed a great deal considering the level of their desirability and also the problems regarded.

Let Us Take A Look At Their Characteristics

pekingesef5If you decide on having a Pekingese as your family member, be ready for a rollercoaster ride of your life. The breed is a perfect companion dog since the ancient times. People living in an apartment can easily adopt a Pekingese. They are extremely bold and has a mind of their own. Pekingese are one of the most independent of toy dogs. They can adopt two personalities in that tiny body of it. Calm and quiet within the house and energy bursts when taken out for exercise. Having a strong personality in the household is very important to have the pup in limits. They are fairly trainable and tend to be obedient with the people within the household. Being very repulsive towards harsh treatment or mishandling, Pekingese are not the apt breed to possess with toddlers around. Pekes are sensitive to rudeness and sudden disturbances. So it is very important for the pet parents to keep their needs in mind to avoid any sort of aggression from the pup. If trained and socialized properly, Pekingese can be very animal-friendly. They do possess a regal dignity which reigns most of the personality of the dog. They are braver than their looks portray, very confident and self-aware.

Taking Care Of Pekes

images-1Though Pekingese are excellent apartment dogs, they do need exercise regularly. A walk down the road or a proper exercise session on the terrace every day will keep the dog healthy. Pekingese shed a lot so grooming them is a mandate. Brushing them every day is very important, putting special importance at their buttocks as they are prone to soiling. As Pekes are muscular dogs, they should have a good nutritional diet. Do not over weight your pup, but! Trimming the fur can be productive which will demand less attention. Keeping them in an air-conditioned environment will help the dog cope better with heat as they are self-consumed by the heat of their coat. They are also prone to heat strokes. With age, Pekingese tend to develop a lot of potential health problems which are mainly orthopedic due to their unique body structure. Thus, staying in touch with good vet doctors are important with a Peke in the house. They also do develop cataract with growing age and some other nervous disorders. But overall, Pekingese are very loyal with a natural protective instinct towards their own kingdom. And with that much volume of fur coverage, they make fantastic cuddles.

Thus, I would like to make a stop here.

As my message always go – Take good care of yourself and definitely of that furry ball of love who won’t even dare imagine a life without you. At the end of the day, all it wants is your lovey-dovey cuddle to help it get a proper morn the next day. Don’t let it miss upon its “life”.

Toodles. 🙂

Strange but true

stock photo lonely woman watching sunset alone in winter on the beach at sunset

We all are little broken,

 And waiting for the one to come and fix all the broken part.

Strange but true…

The worst feeling comes when,

 You don’t know whether to wait or to forget.

Strange but true

We always end up forgiving the one who wasn’t even sorry.

No matter what we love them more than our Ego.

Strange but true…

 How hard we tired we are always faking it because,

Sometimes it’s hard to explain what you actually feel.

Strange but true…

Being lonely can make you easily fall for the very first person,

Who shows you that you are not alone.

Strange but true…

We always want to become someone’s favorite  Hello,

And hardest goodbye.

Strange but true…

There is always a triangle in every love story

Sometimes knowingly and sometimes unknowingly.

Strange but true…

One song is enough to bring a flood of all those memories which took a million days to get flushed off.

Strange but true…

Sometimes we are so messed up that even our heart and brain cannot conclude on a similar solution.

Strange but true…

We always miss someone in all good and bad times,

And hope they miss us too.

Strange but true…

We all are little Selfish when it come to ourselves,

The fact is who is less.

Strange but true…isn’t?

FOR ALL TIME

An Undying Quest

For all time dark and light,

Even if the endeavor speaks of pertinacious travails,

The ray of hope will not be far out of sight.

 

Change is the only constant, they say

Evil might metamorphose into an angel,

Someone’s love might transform into their prey.

 

Courage and Hope are obstreperous,

It is the key necessary for survival.

The human brain in itself is perspicacious.

 

Humans are mere mortals.

With erratic perpetual emotions and fickle-minded decisions,

Faith in yourself will help you cross the hurdles.

 

Love is pellucid- the cure out of the menace,

It encompasses the acceptance of affection unconditional and where you lose your mind,

The capturing feelings over the heart are the most powerful bind.

 

The insipid is broken by the undying beguiling nature,

Its intoxication is an absolute trance that captures your soul,

And engrosses one into its obscure and ravishing world.

 

Ambulating the not so common road,

Fighting the aberrant and tasting the crescendo of joy and success,

Is what will transform you into an undying legend.

The festival of prosperity and good health

featured image

The title of the article says it all; the festival of prosperity and good health is here. Yes, I am talking about the festival of lights – “Diwali”. The celebration of this beautiful festival lasts for at least 4-5 days. Diwali is celebrated by the Hindu community but is also very famous all over the world. During this particular festival, houses are lit up with lights and oil lamps. This festival has got its religious roots from one of the great Hindu epics ‘Ramayana’ which describes the return of legend Lord Rama to his kingdom Ayodhya after completing 14 years of exile on this day. People burst firecrackers during this festival, which I think is extremely harmful to our environment. There is something more to do than just bursting crackers and lighting up the house with oil lamps and lights. Here is the list to get started for Diwali.

  • Cleaning the house

    – Before Diwali start cleaning your house. Get rid of all the unwanted stuff and decorate your house. And Diwali can’t be celebrated without decorating the house. Over the period of years, I have heard my elders say that “on the occasion of Diwali, Goddess Laxmi visits every household bringing luck and prosperity for the family”. Therefore to welcome the Goddess one should clean their house and keep it neat and tidy. For decorating, the house one can use oil lamps, flowers, and lightings.

  • Making Rangolis

    – Making rangolis at the doorstep has been a tradition that almost all of us follow. Just like oil lamps and lights, rangoli making is also an essential part of this festival. There are so many people that I know are experts in rangoli making. They make the best designs with such ease and finesse. And it takes a lot of creativity and skills to make pretty rangoli designs.

  • Indulge in sweet making

    – I am sure you cannot imagine of celebrating Diwali without sweets, can you? Diwali is that time of the year when you get a guilt free pass to indulge in as many sweets as you want without worrying about weight gain (hit the gym afterwards!) Ladoos, Halwa, Ras Malai, Barfis; there is so much variety out there and you cannot just resist yourself from having them all. Preparing these lip-smacking sweets is easy and good to go obviously with guidance from the internet or the old recipe book.

sweets

  • Buy loads of gifts

    – Besides Diwali being a religious festival, it has also become a chance for a quick get together with your family and friends who don’t get much time otherwise. And when you go and meet your loved ones, you obviously wouldn’t want to go empty handed, right? So buying gifts and surprising them would great.

gifts

  • Shop for clothes

    – Once you are done buying gifts for your family and friends, it’s time you pamper yourself. Since it’s a festive time, buying new clothes is an amazing option. Shop for ethnic attires instead of the regular western clothes that we wear. The trend right now for girls is – sarees, lehengas, dresses and for guys – kurta pajamas and sherwanis.

indian-attire

  • Visiting temples

    – Don’t forget to visit a temple on this auspicious day. We cannot neglect the true essence of Diwali which good over bad. Lord Rama defeated the evil demon Ravana and returned to Ayodhya. To celebrate this victory and seek blessings people visit temples on this day.

temples

  • Spread love and happiness

    – We celebrate all our festivals with an enthusiasm to spread love and happiness amongst our families and the society. Diwali is also one such opportunity to get spread happiness and positivity. So, this Diwali let’s celebrate it the eco-friendly way. Instead of spending thousands of rupees on crackers, rather buy sweets, gifts, and new clothes or donate certain amount of money to the orphanage so that even they can celebrate Diwali happily.

love-and-happiness

“Say no to crackers”, have safe Diwali this year. Let’s take care of the environment while celebrating this amazing festival of lights; spread love, peace, harmony and happiness.
