Kamna - Desire

Kamna is a sanskrit word which means desire in english. Desire can be of anything. Desire can be materialistic, can be of change, can be of pleasures. This word though a strong one has a lot of resonance in all the people's lives. All & sundry in this world have one or the other desire. Many a times people fulfill their desires many a times they don't.
One such desire I harboured in my heart from a long time was of making a difference in lives of others. That desire of mine somehow seemed a lot fulfilling & enriching than other routine things in life. But I used to curb it, maybe because of my perception about me being not capable enough for it. But as famously said 'Life does not come with a Map' some events happened i.e. I started a course named General Management Skills Course out of compulsion & with a lot of apprehensions, there I met new people & one of them bought this initiative to my notice. I then added the coveted CA prefix to my name & started on this journey.
The starting was tough due to my perceptions. But one of my friends there helped me through it. I can say he was my guiding angel in that apart from my parents. This initiative is now a part of my being. I have joined 'Kamna' to fulfill my 'kamna'. Here we help the underprivileged to get medical relief whenever they are in need. I never knew that fulfilling some one else's wants was so much more rewarding. All I wanted is a difference in people's lives. But this new dimension left me completely spell bound after I understood that how it feels when you have a person watching your back & helping you be it in any walk of life. It has also made me to take a promise that when any of my friends, relatives etc. approach me for help, I should be the one helping them out.
I do sincerely hope & pray that I not only carry this initiative forward but also add few of my own to try & make this world a better place to live in.
Cheers to a fufilling future!!

Good Riddance

Good Riddance is often used as an exclamation of satisfaction at getting rid of someone or something. The above statement begs us a question, why would you want to get rid of a person or something in your life? But my thoughts are on the contrary, why would you not get rid of someone or something? Surprised? Read on to find out… In your life you’d experience various things, things that maybe good or bad and more often than not, the bad experiences leave a bigger impression on our tender minds as compared to the good ones, well that’s human tendency and you cannot do anything about it, or can you? Yes you can. The bad experiences of people vary from person to person and so do the coping mechanisms adopted by each person after all every person is different and so are their mechanisms- some take to excessive consumption of alcohol, some take to drugs, some dive deep into the ocean of self-doubt without ever thinking about how incredible they are the way they are. The...

Transformation

“The pessimist complains about the wind, The optimist expects it to change But the Realist, adjusts the sails" -William Arthur W ard In life, all of us people are faced with situations where we are pinned to the wall with little or no freedom of movement, at such times we lose hope and start giving up. But what we always forget is that we still and always have a choice- a choice/freedom to react to a situation. We need to look at the situation and not understand what personality type are we, rather think about what are we gonna do about it? We always have a choice, we get to choose our frame of reference- whether we are pessimistic, whether we are optimistic or are we a realist. But in the end the only thing that really matters is that we get to choose what we got to do about it. And so if one decides to fight against the current, be angry about the situation, to argue, to complain, that person will never go anywhere except where the current takes...

Meher- A Blessing

It’s been a long time since my last post here. I agree that I have been very busy, but I usually only share when it’s something that is close to my soul. This time it’s something that I have been working on for a long time, a thought I had and I was just postponing it since quite sometime- reason being my reluctance to take on a thing so huge that it scared me and I didn’t even find a name worthy enough to suit this cause. But the name and approval have come after a long wait and fight for it. And now as the name suggests, Meher means Benevolence in English. Bit of a background here, I began the process about a month and a half back and the name itself holds humongous importance for me. The cause was worthy enough of the name. The cause that has been taken up is supporting an orphanage which houses females with a troubled/abused past. The stories I have heard of little kids being abused has always appalled me at many levels. I mean how can one even think of abusing even ...
