Easy-to-follow Rules to lead a Peaceful Life !



One thing my father always said was, ‘Have Faith’ !

Not a single moment goes off without thinking of my beloved Father! A Great man! very loveable ! The very vital character of my father was his love to whomever he came across in life! I would say his love was in abundance to the whole humanity! He never used to discriminate his son/daughter with that of others! Everybody was the same to him !

Memories of him keep thronging and do not actually allow me to write in coherence! Such was his interaction with me. He was always a friend and never used to be like any other father! What I mean is, he had never been strict beyond limits. When one understands his love, he would never make any mistakes in life. He used to make me learn from my mistakes. If I was not adhering to what he says once, he would wait for the right time to point out the obvious results and then correct me.

Following are some of his advice given to me on various occasions, which I can never forget in my walk of life!

His main advice to me was never to be afraid of anything. 
 'If you are afraid of something or somebody means, you have committed some mistakes. Understand that and always never hesitate to admit your mistakes. 


There is nothing like being honest, which would always keep you peaceful.


Another important thing in life you should learn is to accept things as it is;  whatever that is being offered to you, should be accepted with full heart. When there is no regret about what you have got, there will be no restlessness in your life!



When once you decide doing something, never turn back and get confused . Walk further in the same path with confidence till you reach your goal. Make your utmost effort for that. Everything will be good!


Have always a heart to share with others whatever you have. You will find pleasure in giving others and seeing them happy.


Try your best not to get obligated to others.


Be always polite to people. If somebody is not able to understand what you say or mean, be patient till they realize things.

 

Life is not always a bed of Roses, and problems ought to be faced. Face them with full heart, never try to escape! Do always your duty while facing any kind of problems and never expect for results to be of your taste, whims and fancies! When a stage comes that you are unable to tolerate any situation, you don't have to tolerate but just leave the responsibility to the Almighty; surrender in full. But once surrendered, never take back the burden on your shoulder again, which is not going to fetch you anything. Wait patiently and things will always turn out to be very smooth and safe for you. The Solution shown would always be the one you would relish. Patience is the most wanted character always!


Keep yourself always cheerful.


Above all, HAVE FAITH, have trust in your own self, and you will be always be Happy with Mother's Blessings!"


I have been following all of his advice and I am always successful in my life;  all with his Blessings and the Blessings of The Almighty !

A Friend may die, but not the Friendship !


"A Friend may die, but not the Friendship" ! - These are the very words uttered by a very close friend of mine, so many years back, on the date of leaving for a Foreign Country on a long assignment. The words and the day of his departure is still green in my memory, including the feeling of loneliness and grief I had at that moment, but still I consoled myself saying that the feeling of friendship would ever exist even in the absence of physical presence of the person!

Yesterday i happened to browse through STORYLANE which had prompted a Topic for article to be written and it is:  "Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?" - A Great Question and so very touching too! As the question reminded of my experience in Life I thought of putting through my views and feelings.


In this material world, True Friendship is the only solace for anybody, among all the other relationships! Friends may keep meeting everyday or they may not meet at all for a long time; but still their friendship continues. Once they meet, they can continue from where they left, provided they had maintained the true love and affection towards each other right from day one of their meeting.

Coming back the question that somebody put, I would say it would be a worse feeling when a good friend really moves away from you on some difference of opinion or on an utter misunderstanding of the situation. 'No, he should not have done this! should not have said bye for ever to me like this! Then what is the point? Where has his love and affection showered to me all these days have gone?' Even here I would say when there is true love prevailing at one end, the separation should not cause that much damage; In the heart of hearts of the one who feels this, the feeling of Friendship would still remain and the light of love and friendship would never extinct.

The second situation of losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you, is not a problem at all , I would say! Loosing touch with him can only be temporary because the bondage is still there! It is like a cow sent for gazing the grass. The other end of the rope is still in our hand! A waive of reminding the love would bring it back! Lack of regular meeting or loosing touch would never cause any serious problem in this case, but for some egoistic clashes here and there.

But my ultimate feeling with respect to both the situation is that Friendship and Love is never lost! If my love and affection towards that character, that personality is TRUE, I can never loose it in my lifetime ! The question of loosing friendship never arises at all, because whatever be the outward situation, the light of love keeps glowing! May be I loose the friend in physical form, but not the feeling of FRIENDSHIP at any time !

'A Friend is one who can hear the song in my heart and sing it for me when my memory fails"!
