[some punctuations correction - Aug 8, 2012]
Hi, Very Good morning... now it is 1.50am IST. May 23, 2010
Just now I created my first ever blogger account!!
I hope it will help me express and rediscover myself.
Okay starting to write my first blog. Wish me luck :)
I have had many happy moments in my life till now, as everyone would have had
They could be the school results in school days, mothers special care at bad situations, gifts that i got, etc...
I feel i am luckier to many of my age, i got most i could/ i deserved. As an interrogative person from the childhood, i had the question popping up in my mind many times, What is Happiness, what is Joy, what is bliss, How are they different. These questions are because initially i really did not know their meanings. For me they were just the words representing the same. Even after seeing the meanings in dictionary, my questions get harder in the subconscious mind, i just knew the meaning, did not realize... until i my graduation. I read it many books, heard people telling that joy lies within, but how to feel it? how it feels like?
One day i was feeling the joy within when worshiping the lord. I usually worship god every other day. Lot of respect, fear, adore and love is in me for the god. But that day, i realized, i was surrendering completely to the supreme power, beyond any sins, beyond any hatred, beyond all powers, that forgives forever, that strengthens forever. Wow, what a joy i was feeling. My eyes were full of warm tears, not that i was crying but i was lost to a power, adoring and admiring. My heart was warm, beating at much higher than the regular rate. It was relaxing... That was the first time i felt the real joy that i remember. I wish i feel the same joy always...
Love - This word has a special meaning to most of us. However, i am sure all of us will fail to give the complete definition of it. Because we know love is boundary-less, mostly non-visible, only felt in heart, and does not have self benefits and most of the time will have no reason
Have you loved? of course, I did. Everyone would have definitely loved a teddy bear for no reason, loved a chocolate for its taste, a win in a sport, a good results in metrics, at last not the least, a girl or boy for the cute or witty or smart or beauty; N reasons to love and N+1th reason would be No reason...
I loved; However, It was not two ways; the focus here is how i realized the joy within love. Believe me, it was the same joy, warmth the joy in worshiping. Again, i was surrendering to love. I realized, love is so good. so pure, so dedicated, so joyful. Hey, i was asking myself is Love same as worshiping? Worshiping is love! I just realized the love of my mother, how forgiving and so much of warmth... I felt hard thinking how i took my mom for granted. never reciprocated her love... Her love was and is no less than a goddess' love. She is my visible goddess indeed...
I am a short tempered but humble, down to earth, sincere person. I always liked my work. I am very dedicated and passionate at work, i put every effort in completing it. I love my work. As you might have guessed by now, i realized the same joy/bliss within doing my work. The words of Vivekananda are so mine... "Every small task done with good efforts will yield greatest results" [translated]. I am luckier to have tasted the joy in worship, love and at my work. But i am not perfect, i still have the anger [not hatred].
Your comment on anything about the post is appreciated
Let me write some other time about why do I get angry.
with Warm regards,
The Lover
