Love - Its Beautiful

How do you define love?

Some say it's mysterious, magical, complex, difficult, imaginary, thought-provoking, inspirational, intuitional, joyous, immeasurable, ecstasy, and undefinable. Perhaps.
"Love is a feeling directed at someone which acknowledges their goodness."
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
"To describe love is very difficult, for the same reason that words cannot fully describe the flavor of an orange. You have to taste the fruit to know its flavor. So with love."
Love itself is a universal experience. Yet, every individual occurrence - while perhaps bound by a common thread - seems absolutely unique. Love is what love is! To everyone it expresses itself differently.
Love is the answer to "all" questions!
It is important to stand in Love, not fall into it.
Love is waking up to find the object of your affection in the dream you were having asleep on your shoulder.
Could it be that Love is a story that can never be fully expressed?
Love is a bond or connection between two people that results in trust, intimacy, and an interdependence that enhances both partners.
Love is the ability and willingness to allow those you care for to be what they choose for themselves, without any insistence that they satisfy you.
When you tell someone something bad about yourself and you're scared they won't Love you anymore. But then you get surprised because not only do they still Love you, they Love you even more.
Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day.
Logic says everything in this world has a cause and an effect. True Love is the only feeling which is its own cause and its own effect. It is something illogical and yet above all logic. I Love her because I Love her, and I Love her so I Love her.
Love is comforting someone in need of Love and having them know that somebody cares.
Love is looking past imperfections in your partner and seeing the beautiful person inside. True love seeks the happiness and well being of your partner. Love expresses itself in the mutual respect you demonstrate to your partner.
Love must be experienced. Its meaning is infinite and can never be totally defined.
The opposite of Love is fear. Think about it.
There is no fear in Love; but perfect love casts out fear.
God is love.
Love is loving someone without expecting anything in return; no judgments, no restrictions; no limitations; no expectations!
True Love is the nature of bliss.
Love is expressed when you are being someone who loves someone for who they are, not who you think they should be.
Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit; it is its own fruit, its own enjoyment. I love because I love; I love in order that I may love.
Teach only Love for that is what you are.
Love is a decision.
If you want Love, you must first Love. Love begets Love. You cannot deliver from an empty wagon. You must first learn to Love yourself before you can give Love.
"If you Loved me, you would. . ." Not! Love is not manipulative. It must never be used to get others to do what you want. When you Love someone you never ask them to sacrifice a part of themselves in the name of Love. This form of manipulation contaminates our Love for another.
Can't Buy Me Love!
Love is to like with a great intensity.
True love has a foundation of integrity, respect, faith and trust. Love is the force that brings about unity and harmony.
Although love is at the root of our basic nature, Love for another human being must be cultivated. It takes time for Love to mature.
The road to self-discovery is paved with Love.
Love has no meaning other than the meaning "we" give it.
Perhaps. . . Love just Is. While in its allness and in its nothingness, all we need to do is simply let it Be.
To demonstrate Love. . . say, "I Love you" - outloud - at least once each day to someone you love. There is magic in these three little words. Saying "I love you" is the most beautiful gift you can give to your partner. These words are the most treasured a person can hear.

Life and its Realities

When I look back,after a couple of years,
I have completed many of my responsibilities..
Many more of them are becoming a reality.
But when I ask myself, whether they were my dreams
the answer is that, no, it wasn't my dreams.
I had lot of dreams, both professional and personal.
None has come true.
I am enjoying the life around me.
But still, something is missing.
I don't know how to make them come true.
Responsibilities, I know how to tackle them.
But my dreams, it really haunts me.
Otherwise my life is happy.
Achieved many things,more than what I dreamt of, in many cases.
but not my true dreams, which has been holding me back for quite some time.

My Thoughts

Life in deserts is sandy,
Life in caves is lonely,
Life in ocean is salty,
Life in stars is resplendent,
Life in car is modern,
Life in mountains is exhilarating,
Life in Sun is brilliant,
Life in forests is mystical,
Life in shadows is enigmatic,
Life in battlefield is belligerent,
Life in pearls is exotic,
Life in office is monotonous,
Life in sky is breezy,
Life in submarine is voluptuous,
Life in trees is mischievous.

BEAUTY IS A FEELING

Beauty… How do you define it? Can one really define it ? It’s a Difficult job notwithstanding the fact that we keep on experiencing it in this meandering life of ours.

For one, beauty is something which overwhelms our senses and prevails upon us to believe that life is not all that bad.

Every aspect of life is beautiful, yet it depends upon the eyes of the beholder. Thus very true is the saying that ‘Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder’

Beauty, though predominantly experienced through our eyes, is not limited to sight only. Beauty can also reach us through our ears, the olfactory or our taste buds.

Good music is beautiful. It takes our mind to a different world. Sometimes the music is so very much pervasive that our hearts begin to dance in its rhythmn. The music tends to take us to some new world then. We all surely have had such experiences.

There is beauty in good fragrances. No wonder man has always been after perfumes, scents and the like. Fragrances conjure up images in our minds , or tend to affect the way we look or perceive things. Good fragrances produce peace in our minds- isn’t that beautiful.

Good food is definitely beautiful. Everyone is a different person after a good meal. The very thought of a good meal produces zest in our otherwise boring routine life.

Apart from above, there is beauty in human creation and human nature. Human creation. because it has added so much to this world with promise of doing much more. Human nature because it’s filled with inquisition , optimism and compassion.

There’s beauty in humour. There’s beauty in sorrow. There’s beauty in our triumphs because they make us feel second to none. There’s a beauty in our problems as well - because they give us an opportunity to explore ourselves and the world around us.

Beauty envelops us in an unceasing abundance. Every facet of life is filled with beauty.

Beauty is a feeling- create it, spread and above all just try experiencing it.

She Walks in Beauty Like the Night

She walks in beauty,like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meets in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more,one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens o'er her face,
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure,how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek and over that brow
So soft,so calm,yet eloquent,
The smiles that win,the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent.

Joy

And joy is everywhere;
It is in the earth's green covering of grass;
In the blue serenity of of the sky;
In the reckless exuberance of spring;
In the severe abstinence of gray winter;
In the living flesh that animates our bodily frame;
In the perfect poise of the human
figure,noble and upright;
In living;
In the exercise of all our powers;
In the acquisition of knowledge;
In fighting evils...
Joy is there everywhere.

Life is

Life is an opportunity,benefit from it.
Life is beauty,admire it.
Life is a dream,realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfill it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is too precious, do not destroy it.
Life is life, fight for it.

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you are trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low,and the debts are high
And you want to smile,but have no sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must,but do not quit.

Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you are hardest hit-
It's when things go wrong that you must not quit.

It's the Journey that's Important

Life, sometimes so wearying
Is worth its weight in gold
The experience of travelling
Lends a wisdom that is old
Beyond our 'living memory'
A softly spoken prayer:
"Its the journey that's important,
Not the getting there!"

Ins and outs and ups and downs
Life's road meanders aimlessly?
Or so it seems,but somehow
Leads us where we need to be,
And being simply human
we often question and compare....
"Is the journey so important
Or the getting there?"

And thus it's always been
That question pondered down the ages
By simple men with simple ways
To wise and ancient sages....
How sweet then,quietly knowing
Reaching destination fair:
"It's the journey that's important,
Not the getting there!"

Peace begins with me

Peace begins with me
Starting over and breaking free.

Peace begins with me
Opening my eyes and beginning to see.

Peace begins with me
Curious about what I am going to be.

Peace begins with me
Knowing no longer I have to flee.

Peace begins with me
Having self dignity.

Peace begins with me
Taking on more responsibility.

Peace begins with me
Because peace is being happy.

And this is why peace begins with me!
