Croakings of a Clumsy Frog -- 15

 

This is your day. This sun shines for you. It's eager to fill your heart with warmth. How will it do it if you are unwilling? It needs your attention and a bit of receptivity. The time is your kind brother. Its hours go calculatedly to manage your things in the best possible manner. You just have to show a trace of respect to it. Great are its blessings in return. This breeze is for you to delicately whisper the best wishes for you. Allow it to do so and don't be a naysayer, cribbing miser. This sky is for you to fly majestically. Come out of your self-inflicted confines and chains. Accept the open invitation to fly freely. This cosmos is for you; you are its sovereign and subject both! Command where you need; and follow when suitable without pride's greed.

Try and feel the puppy-touch of unconditional love.

If one fish can spoil the entire pond, can a single lotus win the odds from the side of beauty? Well, it serves a big purpose if we believe so. Let’s believe that an ounce of goodness is enough to counterbalance tons of evil. This belief itself serves a big purpose. It keeps the hope alive for love, joy and compassion.

It is so easy to react on impulse to the instincts driven by hate and revenge, and so difficult to postpone the very same, think coolly, and take calculated measures and respond. Our success and standing in life is decided by the time gap between raw impulse and cool deliberation. As we move towards lessening this gap, we take a firmer grip on the wheel of life. There comes a time when impulsive reaction and cool deliberation merge into one. Then you are in the driving seat and this mind becomes your servant. In that position, you create, you become a creator. You are no longer a piece of mere creation.

A stray puppy licked my hands, its tiny tail wagging with loads of greetings. It was so friendly, so pure and honest. The puppy’s touch feels far more loving than so many smart humans having super-egos who just love to hiss and bite, hiss and bite, hiss and bite!

Dark is the poor sidekick of light. It just exists to provide a canvas on which the multihued colours of light get painted in dazzling arrays and patterns.

What is the difference between love and infatuation? Infatuation is that glittering fake jewel that glitters like most of the modern things in design, pattern and finish. Love is the real gold, smiling unceremoniously with its subdued colours and toned-down purity. And all of us are jumping over the barbed wires of infatuation, our emotions bleeding, to reach the beautiful garden of love.

Here is a little invitation for laziness to see the truth in slow mode. A continuous run is no fun without rest, repose and pause. Inviting you to slow down and have a bit of rest. The fast mode has no meaning without the slow mode. A run is fruitless without rest. In any case, we have to stop to reap the rewards of our running, huffing and puffing.

As a creator you give the best shot at life. You no longer fear death once you have given your best to life and blossom the potential Mother Nature has given you. Smile full and sadness vanishes. Light fully and darkness turns on its heels. And what is a flower? It's simply mother earth smiling as you carefully, lovingly caress a bit of soil with loving hands. We create blossoms with our emotions. The potential is already there. What we need is a gentle emotion and a bit of smile to create something that adds to mother earth's smile.
