Do you recall those moments which made your day beautiful before going to bed? Do you smile looking back at something that happened during the day? Wondering why I’m asking such questions? Well this blog is all about those sweet little gestures which add beauty to your life. Because little things matter and will always do.

Let me elaborate this topic by starting with the most celebrated day of everyone’s childhood, i.e. our BIRTHDAY. Generally People get excited for their birthdays because of grand surprises, lovely gifts they receive and parties they do to make their special day memorable. But my case is a bit different. Before moving to different city for higher studies, the best part of my birthday used to be when my mother wakes me up in the morning with a birthday wish in her sweetest voice along with showering of rose petals on my face. Nothing could ever make me happier than this gesture. Sometimes these small things go unnoticed because we take them for granted.

I always wonder how those tiny stars can lighten up the entire sky. How these cute little babies’ innocent smile refreshes everyone’s mood. How an old couple walking together hand in hand makes us believe in true and permanent love.

• Dancing like a carefree bird with my whole heart.
• Good hair day. When I can’t stop myself admiring in the mirror.
• Watching a nice movie, curled up under the blanket.
• Having a soothing conversation with family.
• Evening walk on the terrace, listening to good music and feeling up the breeze.
• Meeting an adorable dog or cat and getting to pet him or her.
• 2 am phone calls to one of those rare people who knows me better than anyone else.
• A session of craziness and laughter with my mates.
• Cooking successfully without taking help from mommy the great👩‍🍳
• Just looking at my parents and feeling satisfied that I’m one of the main reasons behind their happiness.
• Fighting with my younger brother for T.V. remote or last slice of pizza.
• Genuine Appreciation about anything.
• Video calling with my cousins and friends just to take stupid random screenshots and post them on social media.

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

These are some cute little things which brighten up my smile and have huge positive impact in my go-to life.

Not only in happiness, small things are also important in making your work life balanced and organised. We spend 80% of our day attending to small things. Sticking on commitments, delivering on time, following up on actions, doing every task with full dedication and what not? And if 80% of our day is spent disorganized and chaotic, where does it lead? A distracted mind will get more distracted and we won’t be able to concentrate on bigger assignments. This is why it is necessary to focus on little things first.

Generally human nature is all about getting connected with someone and expecting various things gradually with a passage of time. Over thinking and complaining of not meeting up the expectations often leads to frustration. But during this process, we neglect those small things they do to make us feel special.

There comes a time when you feel low, when things are not going great, every task seems messy and difficult to accomplish. On these days, you need to bring in the things that would require no effort to give you some strength to go through such tough phases. The magic of starting to focus on these little things is that you will gradually shift your thought from what is missing in your life to what is there.

So find joy and beauty in little things for one you will look back and realize they have played the major role in making your life happier!! 🙂 🌈

 

 

 

What used to be your favorite time of the year when you were in school? Well, if you ask me then it has to be the most awaited time of the year, “SUMMER VACATIONS” when we used to get free from our annual examinations and gear up to have nothing but the memorable time with our closed ones. Right from deciding to sleep the entire day while watching T.V to staying up till late night, we used to build castle in our own heads about various things. Planning for exciting fun-filled holidays, thrilling adventures, endless shopping, tradition of visiting maternal family and cousins’ get together.  Daymn! Is it even possible to achieve 100 plans in just 60 days? 😀

Although the vacation used to start with lots of vigor and promises but sadly culminate before we could actually get the feel of it. In the excitement of doing so many things altogether, we would forget about the duration of time and would thus end up doing half of what we thought. Leave aside the fun part, even our school homework was piled up for the last, creating a panic situation at the end.

Alike summer vacations, the similar situation manifests in life too.

All of our life, we keep making proposals about various uncertain events, trying to fix those problems or occurrences which are not even in our hands. But Life is so unpredictable; we desire something, plan something and get something else. Just as in our school days, we used to save the best for the summer vacations or at the end of the session. Similarly in life, we keep postponing the best for later stages. But the universal truth we all must abide by is, none of us is aware of our future.

Despite of planning for long , we cannot achieve everything and when we decides to go with a flow, things turn out more beautifully as it is rightly said that “unexpected and sudden plans are always the best ones’.

WHAT IS LIFE IN REALITY?

It’s so terrifying to hear multiple stories from all around about sudden demises, accidents, suicides, murders or any kind of shocking uncertain events. Now Just give a thought, what is life in reality? People struggle throughout with various issues related to career, work, building a house, worrying about children’s education and marriage and then suddenly there’s this unexpected full stop forever. They start getting trapped into the physical ailments and because of this everything comes to a standstill. Now what about their own dreams which they thought to fulfill after winding up the mentioned issues? What about those small wishes which kept on delaying thinking that this could be done afterwards too coz it’s not that important?

I’m definitely not against the planning process coz I know its importance as well. All I’m saying is we don’t decide time, it’s the life which does, we just pretend. So why to wait for the perfect time when you can take the moment and make it perfect?

MAKE LIFE AS MEMORABLE AS YOU TRY TO MAKE YOUR SUMMER VACATIONS!

STOP making plans for several lives in this one life because this journey is too short to worry about future and regret about the past. Live every moment with great joy and happiness as if you’re on a vacation. Don’t wait for a perfect summer holiday, start making each day like one. In whatever capacity we can, we should try and enjoy life in its each moment with every breathe so that there are no regrets of the summer vacation coming to an end! 🙂

Too easy to say such things and too hard to implement them in real. Isn’t it? But what’s that vacation where there is no difficulty in executing a plan? 😉 So start living your life like summer holidays, and do let me know about your views in the comment section.
