Change
According to the dictionary the literal meaning of change is “To exchange for or replace with another, usually of the same kind or category “
There are 2 types of change as far as human life and emotions are concern. One which makes us happy and other which keeps lots of thoughts blurred inside us……….
I would like to discuss the first kind of change in today’s blog.
Have you ever thought that why do we like week ends more? It not just because we do have to work over week ends but also because it gives us breaks from our routine office life.
Why do we like night’s sleep? Simply because it gives us the break from our daily life and re-energize our soul and body.
There many such change which makes us happy. And because of this change we try to look the things from different angle. On week ends we understand the value of week days and vice versa.
Try to change your routine life to enjoy it at fullest. Following are some of the things which can be tried to feel the difference.
Like decide one day not to use laptop/internet. Enjoy the free time reading new paper, taking an evening walk etc…
Decide one day not to use you car and use public transport to commute.Tough one though
By doing so you will value your car more then before. Human mentality is what we have we do not value and what we do not have we like much. And once we get what we like, we forget it’s importance. Its whole cycle. So there are many such small lessons to be learned from a small change.
Decide one day not to watch TV.
On the same principal whole concept of eating out in good restaurant is base, even our tongue and stomach likes change.
Note: Above are purely my views. I would like to see comment if you have different views or you is not agreeing to me.

Sir Edmund Hillary was the first man to climb Mount Everest. On May 29, 1953 he scaled the highest mountain then known to man-29,000 feet straight up. He was knighted for his efforts.
He even made American Express card commercials because of it! However, until we read his book, High Adventure, we don’t understand that Hillary had to grow into this success.
You see, in 1952 he attempted to climb Mount Everest, but failed. A few weeks later a group in England asked him to address its members. Hillary walked on stage to a thunderous applause. The audience was recognizing an attempt at greatness, but Edmund Hillary saw himself as a failure. He moved away from the microphone and walked to the edge of the platform.
He made a fist and pointed at a picture of the mountain. He said in a loud voice, Mount Everest, you beat me the first time, but I’ll beat you the next time because you’ve grown all you are going to grow… but I’m still growing!

Life is like card game….
Everybody in life is under certain circumstances may be good or bad.Remember there are only 52 cards available and it is not possible for everyone to have kings in their game.One has to play the best game he can play with the availble cards and enjoy the game.Situation can never be same forever ,keep learning while playing and enjoy the game of life.
Life is like water….. Life is like water, then the jobs, money and position we hold in society are the cups.
They are just tools to hold and maintain our life; but the quality of life doesn’t change based on the cup.
If we only concentrate on the cup, we won’t have time to enjoy or taste the water in it.
Life is like foreign language…..
Do not worry if you mispronounce it initially but never quit untill you pronounce it correctly.Try to learn the correct pronunciation….Keep trying to find the purpose of life.
Life is like rail tracks….
Which track you have to take depends on simply where you want to go
Happy Living,
Devang Shah
