Thousands of candles
can be lighted from a single candle,
and the life of the candle
will not be shortened.
Happiness never decreases
by being shared.
~~Buddha
Life is an endless voyage!! A voyage for which even the skilled mariner cant build a compass predicting the exact directions it may take! No cartographer has ever drawn an atlas locating the territories we may travel to! Because in the voyage of life your fortunes will travel up north one Sunday and on Monday it will head south bringing you misfortunes! You might have planned ahead to reach the summit but the voyage of life would have another plans taking you to uncharted territories when you least expect it! The Schools or the Streets don’t provide you answers for the questions life throws at you!! Not Self help books but the Past masters who summed up the meaning of life succinctly in beautiful verses are your Beacons of Hope here! Through their clairvoyance they convey great lessons about what really matters in life aphoristically but cryptically of course!!

Indeed,
we are one soul,
you and me.
In the show
and hide you in me,
I am in you.
Here is the deeper meaning
of my relationship with you,
Because there is nor I, nor you.
between you and me

Be with those who help your being.
Don’t sit with indifferent people, whose breath
comes cold out of their mouths.
~ Rumi ❤ ❤
Of all our basic virtues,
courage is the one that
helps us to live exactly the way we want
and provides the psychological fuel
we need to create,
take risks, help others, and face hard times…
Courageous action is humanity at its finest.
Robert Biswas-Diener
We are shaped by our thoughts;
we become what we think.
When the mind is pure,
joy follows like a shadow
that never leaves.
~~ Buddha
The water
in a vessel is sparkling;
The water
in the sea is dark.
The small truth has words which are clear;
the great truth has great silence.
Tagore ♥♥
If a mirror ever makes
you sad
you
should know
that it does
not know
you.
Kabir ❤
Like the Sun I shine on those who are forsaken.
I may look drunk and disheveled but I speak the Truth.
Tear off the mask. Your face is glorious.
Your heart may be cold as stone
but I will warm it with my raging fire.
Beloved Rumi ❤
