Expressing Myself

You should be happy with what you see in the mirror

 …Nikhil

Whatever you are , whoever you are , you have to be happy with yourself …. else you will turn into one miserable git.  We always feel good and flattered, when other say a few good words about us. Similarly , we are motivated and confident if we feel good about ourself.
Get up in morning , Look into the mirror, smile and say good about yourself to yourself …. TRY IT! and see the difference in just a few days.

“The most reliable person u’ll ever know is your self”

The single quote by Tolstoy that made me his fan was

“A man is like a fraction whose numerator is what he is and whose denominator is what he thinks of himself. The larger the denominator, the smaller the fraction.”

Until yesterday, for me “Leo Tolstoy” was just a name in history. For those who are not aware … Tolstoy (1828 – 1910) was a great Russian novelist, dramatist, essayist and has been an inspiration for like of our own Mahatma Gandhi. Gandhi was so inspired with Tolstoy that he went on to name his centers in South Africa as “Tolstoy Farm”.
Yesterday I happened to read a small article in the news paper on Tolstoy and instantly I became his fan too. There I was googling information about Leo Tolstoy. I read snippets of his literary work on sites ( there is quite a lot of it). He has written quite a few books including War and Peace and Anna Karenina. He also developed a kind of non-traditional Christian philosophy, described in his work The Kingdom of God is Within You, that shares some similarities with Buddhism.

Isn’t this an interesting thought!

PS. Another inspiring fact about Tolstoy … He is a VIRGO and so am I 🙂

Happiness is a relative term. You can be happy only when people around you are happy.

Learn More to Earn More …Earn More to Burn More.

…Nikhil

Everyone cannot earn … espcially children. And I guess , I dont have to give statistics of Children in Need … Remember to do your bit for CRY, UNICEF, CHILDREN in NEED, EHSAAS etc, TODAY

For any person, he himself is the most difficult person to please!

Life actually has no meaning

…Nikhil
What I mean is, sometimes we all should just live life  as it comes to you… If we try to find meaning in everything, then we get no time to live it… we loose the fun bit.

Also …

Meaning of life is what you make of it …

Dad’s addition to the philosophy :-

Once upon a time , a teacher – puplil conversation…
Teacher : “Why do you have to study ?”
Pupil :  “ To pass in the exams.”
Teacher : “Why do you want to pass in the exams?”
Pupil : “To get a nice job.”
Teacher : “Why do you want to get a nice job?”
Pupil : “To make lots of money.”
Teacher : “Why do you want lots of money?”
Pupil : “To have a nice life.”
Teacher : ”Why do you want to live?”
Pupil : NO ANSWER

Normally! we never think, why we exist. Think for a while , I’ll give my answer some day….watch this space.
