Day#4 I am GRATEFUL for

I read it some where that 'You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream'.Well true, as dreamers we can never stop dreaming.Every moment of the day that passes by either we are dreaming or hoping that a dream comes true.They can be different for each of us like from being an astronaut to own a business,from marry our prince charming or to be a mother,from owning a car to have a beautiful home to return.A dream/fantasy/ambition is what  makes you keep moving in life.

When I was child, would always gaze out of window lost in my dreams and then will be caught my teacher in the middle of class(especially during History/Geography/Civic classes).I remember an hour long journey from my school to home and loads of series of dreams.It would be any thing right from having  Aladin's lamp to meet SRK or brains to remember Maths formula.

These dreams somewhere or the other kept me through the thick and thin of my life.I would dream my life as an adult,how will it be,where will I go and what will I do.So here I am,a blessed being, living the life of my dreams Most of them got fulfilled and ones which dint,it does not matter now.

Today I am grateful for the higher Thee/GOD who fulfilled my dreams.

• As a kid I loved chat,we use to quite away from city,so it use to be once or twice a month feast for me.I always would dream that when I am big I will be always be able to have chat whenever I wanted to have.That's where I live now.I have this 3-4 chat stalls near my place,I can enjoy it n number of time.Its all together a different story that I dont eat it that often now.
• I always dreamt of going abroad for holidays and I am truly grateful for 2 wonderful holidays which I had in 2011.It calls for another post all together.But as a child it was a big dream of mine.
• I wanted to work abroad.I am so truly grateful that I got a chance of working in Singapore .There I meet few amazing people and had a best time of my life.It taught me a lession that,every thing happens for a reason,works in your best interest at an appropriate time.
• I always dreamt of being a teacher,(I so wanted to be life my favourite teacher)well I dint become a teacher but fortunately I got an experience in teaching due to my job.
• I had studied in KV,which usually use to be n army campus.One of my school was on top of a small hill.View from my class use to be amazing.I always dreamt of staying in such surrounding.Well I was grateful to live in such a vicinity.Our flat was on top of the hill from there you could see beautiful river flowing and sun rising.It was truly amazing.
• I dreamt of para-sailing since I landed in Goa and never got a chance to do it .When I went for holiday,I got a chance to do it there.I was so delighted.I can never forget that experienceand always be grateful for it.
• This one is my favourite song by ABBA.The charm of dreams..  

I have a dream, a song to sing

To help me cope with anything

If you see the wonder of a fairy tale

You can take the future even if you fail

I believe in angels

Something good in everything I see

I believe in angels

When I know the time is right for me

I’ll cross the stream - I have a dream

There are few more which are yet to come true and that's what makes me hopeful for beautiful tomorrow.But I am grateful that I have a heart which beats and dreams,which cries when they shatter and gets delighted in their fulfilment.

Day#2 I am GRATEFUL for..

When we see our lives with a grateful eye we realise that we are truly living like a king or God's spacial person.This is my second day and I have realised that I lead a luxurious life and one such possession is my Books.

Books are magical.It makes you forgot your surrounding and takes you to another world.World which is created in your mind where you can feel and connect with the characters.They talk to you,you laugh/cry with them,they make you ponder,enables you to see things in new light and once you are  done with a book you are changed .That's  the power of a good book

Well what I remembered,I started my reading with Champak,Chanda Mama,Chacha Choudhary.Then I got 'Panchtantra K Khataye'.As I grew I use to finish reading my Hindi & English books in first week of school itself. :).As a kid I mostly read Hindi Literature which was in abundance at our local library.

Then when we moved to new city I started my first series Nancy Drew and Famous Five.Then came my first love Harry Potter which made me best friends with books and I want to thank J.K.Rowling for it.It gave food for my thought.I had this imaginary world of Hogwarts ,once entered use to make me forget my mundane life.

• I am truly grateful to my parents who encouraged me to read books.
• I am truly grateful to all the local libraries which helped to quench my thirst for books.
• I am truly blessed to have read few amazing books like Harry Potter which made sure I continued reading for rest of life.
• During the most lonely period,books were my constant companion which kept me alive,made me laugh and helped me understand why I was going through that phase.
• Area where I lived currently has this wonderful library which has so many books that I think it can keep me busy for another 4 years.:)
• Then I came across The Secret.I cannot thank enough the person who introduced me to The Secret.I am truly grateful for the book which changed my entire perspective of life.Its is the kind of book which I like to carry everywhere I go.Even though I am not reading it. 

• I am grateful for these books which introduced me to this blogging world where I meet such amazing story tellers.
• I am grateful to Privy Triffles .She really touched my heart with her stories.

Day#1 I am GRATEFUL for..

As this is my Day 1 post, I wanted to write about the most precious thing that I have and I am truly grateful for.Something without which I cannot imagine a complete day..what it could be?

As I was thinking,in the background...Abhi mujhme Kahin (From Agneepath) was playing..it suddenly dawned on me...yes I am truly grateful for music in my life.

I don't even remember when I fell in love with music.May be when I was a kid.I still remember the days when we had huge collection of cassettes in possibly all kind of genre starting from birthday songs to bhajans,movies and what not.

There was also this time when me & my sister will sit down and make a list of songs which we want to be recorded in a cassette.Then my parents will get it recorded for us.Whole week only that cassette will be played.That was really crazy :P

Well there was Radio which made this relationship more strong.I still, till date prefer to hear a song on radio then played on ipod/mobile.I feel so happy when the song which is in my head suddenly gets aired on radio.What a pleasure.( You may find it funny but yes I do feel so)

I still remember Fogi bhaiyo k farmaish,Jaimala,Halawa Mehel,sakhi shaheli,Pitara aired on Vivid bharti.My grandmother use to put it on.When ever I listen to ,(which I dont often now) I remember her taking recipes for new pickle and all the good times I had during summer vacation.

I feel music has very special kind of memory with it.Whenever you are listening and engaged in an activity next time when you play it entire event gets played in your mind with action.Like you are reliving it.We had gone for you first college picnic and there was this cassette which was played during the journey,now whenever I listen to those songs I can recall all the crazy things which we did :) .
I am not sure whether this happens to you all or I am the odd one out.

• I am grateful for all the time when cassette/new music players were provided to me to enjoy all my songs.
• I am grateful for every time whenever the song which is playing in my head gets aired on radio.I feel so elated.Joy with no measures.
• I am truly grateful for all those users who uploads songs on YouTube so that I can watch them whenever I want.
• I am grateful for all gadget that I own which let me enjoy music all the time.They are really a treasure for me.

• I am truly grateful, that for every mood there is a song and best part is I get to listen it as per my mood.

The Magic..A magical journey begins

A year  back I came across The Magic By Rhonda Byrne.I am very sure most of you must have read it and practised it.I had stumbled upon The Secret, her first book, years ago and re-read few times when ever I wanted to feel really good and pepped up.I know most of you must have read it also.

About The Magic, when I read it I was really blown away by the detailed description of each and every practise provided.It looked like that it had all the answers about practising LOA daily.I started following it and left it in middle.This I did for multiple times by  now( and I am not proud of it all).I am bit lazy and lack PERSISTENCE.

I have come across many blogs where blogger follow Marathon for some days. I liked the idea and now starting to practise the same here .I have a feeling that by writing and sharing with you all,at least I will be able to complete the 28 days activity.

So here I am starting the 28-Days of Magical Practise.
