True happiness

                                                        Long ago when I was in class 2 in school I learned  a lovely song about happiness....
Happiness is to know you saviour,
Living your life in his favour,
Happiness is the lord....
            God Almighty showers happiness upon us constantly but I guess we are unable to realize that.  Most of us are in search of happiness.  Day in and day out we look around for happiness but does it dawn upon us that happiness is all around us.  We don't grab opportunities that come our way.  Being born as a human being is the biggest reason to be happy about.  People equate happiness to money, fame.  Yes, we do live in a materialistic world but even little things can make us happy like our favourite ice-cream, favourite song, new clothes (for women at least!).  Money is power, that is the viewpoint of the society but is it really a source of happiness??  Money can't buy everything.  Relationships in life are our true happiness and wealth.  Why do we work so hard and earn money?  It is for our near and dear ones , our family.  They are the true jewels in our lives.  The true source of happiness is togetherness.
             What do you prefer- staying with your family and have a humble living or residing in a pent-house all alone.  Even a billionaire can't be happy when he doesn't have a shoulder to cry upon.
Just think about it.

Regards,
Vinita

Are movies close to everyday life??

Image
                              Good question to ponder upon.  Whatever is depicted in films is too far from reality.  There is a yawning gap between our lives and stories shown on the big screen.  Very rare have I found reality in movies.  The way people emote on the screen is no where near the real world.  Emotions such as love, fear, anger, happiness, sadness, depression appear to be very made up.                                Just imagine yourself singing aloud for your loved one on the streets.  People will declare that you are mad!!! Dressing up like the heroines in some cases is a strict no no.  And then there are those dream sequences ( like any other girl I love them) , with a beautiful location and an enviable wardrobe. Fight scenes are over the top and unnatural. Imagine a guy taking drips suddenly gets up from his hospital bed , runs and fights like a lion!!!  Nowadays fights have become even more dramatic ( Singham!!).                                But if movies are lik

Homemade Food - Have you Thanked Your Mom Enough?

Image
Hey Everyone! Well, I am back and I promise that I will be more regular in this space from now onward! Last night I had planned my entire Saturday. I wanted to go out and chill out in my own company but as you all know what one thinks cannot come true all the time! So yeah, I woke up at 11:00 am and I swear I was feeling very bad not just because waking up late is bad but also because I had messed the entire plan for the day. Then it suddenly struck me 'Why don't I do something that I never do?' To be honest guys, I never make the main dish for any meal. I can make round rotis and I generally do so every second day but taking the helm of the kitchen in my hands is not my cup of tea. So, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and make the sabzi today! I am a big fan of paneer and capsicum sabzi and that is why I set out to make it all by myself. I asked my mom for the recipe of course so that I don't go wrong anywhere. I was slowly slicing all the veggies, and

Journey of a currency note

Image
                                So, having a lot of cash in your purse??  Take out a single currency note and just think who all owned it before it landed into your wallet. Isn't it a strange thing?  Especially in India it becomes a lot more easy to trace a INR note.  You can find people immortalize their loved one's by writing their names on it.  Just yesterday I saw a Rs.5 note with a 'GUNA SISTER' written on it in capital letters.  Writing numbers was a norm but now even names appear.  Xyz loves Zyx , I know quite silly but true.  Just like how at historical places you find hearts engraved with lovers' names.  Not only does it spoil these precious monuments, it is a very cheap way of publicizing one's love.                     Coming back to currency notes and their ever changing holders, you give a 500 rupees note to a shop-keeper for buying a Rs.50 product, you get Rs.450 back...ok this is no math class... you may get it as 4 hundred rupees notes and 5 te
