Raising a child!

Raising the child is a career in itself....Instead of getting a promotion and measuring progress in professional sense, a way to measure how well you are doing is how well your child is doing:)

Rethink Valentines!

Featured in Times Republican

Every year Valentine's Day is about acknowledging love for our near and dear ones. This year lets go beyond this simple (sometimes formal) acknowledgement and truly ask ourselves if we have unconditional love for everyone. The unconditional love is where we don't have any expectations and just want the people around us to be happy. If everyone has unconditional love for others the world will be peaceful and much better place to live in.
This month's project is 'Let love be'!

For this project all you need is
  • Construction paper or foam
  • Buttons with different colors and sizes
  • Pipe cleaners
  • Beads
  • Glue
  • Blank card
  • Paper
  • Pencil
  • Scissors
1. Glue different sizes and colors of buttons on a  card
2. Draw dresses on paper or foam using pencil and cut.
3. For hairs take 2 pipe cleaners and cut them in same size using scissors. Add beads on both ends.
4. Cut pipe cleaner for hands, add some beads.
5. For legs and shoes, cut 2 pipe cleaners in same size. Turn one end and wrap a different color pipe cleaner.
6. Using glue stick the hairs, dress, hands and legs.

Love and be loved!

    Problem!

    There is no problem in the world that cannot be solved.
    If we have a problem and we think it cannot be solved, its not a problem anymore.
    It's a fact, and we have accepted it!

    Who makes time good or bad?

    Its us who makes time good or bad. Even in good times we can lose our happiness over small things....or flow happily through bad times. We all are swimmers in this ocean of time....Time is moving and we are moving through it, we are living these moments. Time does not label itself good or bad, we do.......Its us!

    When will I be happy?

    Now or Never!

    Open mind!

    To be able to respect anything, we really need to understand what it is.
    To understand, we need to learn about it.
    To learn, we need an open mind.

    What is even better than recycling!

    Recycling is good..
    Reuse is better..
    and Reduce is awesome!

    Preconceived mind!

    People with preconceived minds have a pair of colored glasses on all the time. That does makes the world look colorful, keeping only a few objects in their true colors and rest....... adulterated!

    Acceptance!

    Accepting a person or a situation (the way they are) helps us to resolve the internal conflict of what could or should have been.
