Gratitude Is The Best Attitude !

thank-you

I was reading ‘Shams Tabrizi’ Today, Who was the spiritual instructor of ‘Rumi’ . I don’t exactly know what a spiritual instructor do, but I wanted to share some of his quotes I loved, with you.

“The chemistry of mind is different from the chemistry of love. The mind is careful, suspicious, he advances little by little. He advises “Be careful, protect yourself” Whereas love says “Let yourself, go!” The mind is strong, never fells down, while love hurts itself, fells into ruins. But isn’t it in ruins that we mostly find the treasures? A broken heart hides so many treasures.”

“It is never late to ask yourself ‘Am I ready to change my life, am I ready to change myself?’. However old we are, whatever we went through, it is always possible to reborn. If each day is a copy of the last one, what a pity! Every breath is a chance to reborn…”

“Whatever happens to you, don’t fall in despair. Even if all the doors are closed, a secret path will be there for you that no one knows. You can’t see it yet but so many paradises are at the end of this path. Be grateful! It is easy to thank after obtaining what you want, thank before having what you want.”

As Shams Tabrizi says to be Grateful, I am writing this post today to be Grateful to the people who remembered me and shared their love with me in the form of Blog Awards !

I Thank You All for all of these Awards. They remind me always that there are people who read me and for whom, I am important ! Thank you for making me feel like that. I am honored !

Following is the description of Awards along with the nominations for each Award. The nominations for each Award are listed with the award.

So this time The people who will receive Awards would have to do something new 😛 Just answer the following questions with your award speech !

  • The most Embarrassing moment of your life :
  • The person you Love the most :
  • What quality makes you unique from the others :
  • The moment that proves you are naughty:
  • What is your favorite food :

That’s it. It is up to you if you want to go with the previous rules of writing 7 things about you and displaying the award or you want to follow my rules and answer these questions or both. You can accept them without following any rules too ! That’s up to you 🙂

Double Trouble Love 😉 :

This double trouble was caused to me by  the beauties VelaneDeBeaute for Shine On Award and CHANDNI for The Versatile Blogger Award ! It is not at all a trouble (Don’t judge wrong 😉 ) but an honor ! As I have received these Awards before , You can read the rules and seven things about me here and here.

  23. THIS IS THE QUOTE AT THE END OF THE MOVIE JOBS BY HIM…I follow every dot of every eye of this philosophy…

    Steve Paul Jobs:

    “Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

    Thanks to you too love light White Pearl…

      You write beautiful…I read every post by you, It is just that those are so mature , My absurd mind is not able to understand them fully …. That is why I have never commented there, I feel embarrassment !
      You are such a great writer and inspiration for me !
      Thank you ! Your words always mean a lot to me 🙂

      • Fantastic use of words by you! So Shukriya, Mehrbaani! You write effortlessly and error-free at the same time, and are, ahem, captivating too. I really have to exercise my grey cells, to get anything into Blogistan. And probably it is reading your stuff, that made me make the effort again, So cool, zabardast, whatever, my vote goes to you.

      • Thank you so much Sir for all the appreciation …. I am humbled and honored and blessed to have you as my reader 🙂
        I am so happy that my writing is effecting you in some way ! I hope it do all good 🙂
        Thank you so very much……. I have no words to thank you !
