An article which struck a chord within me!

I usually don't cut and paste any article... I have always believed that anything in blog should be just original penning down of thoughts and muses. But today I choose to make an exception. I read this article and it struck a chord so deep that it would be just fair to put it in my personal place. It is something which is so true that as I read it I feel a sense of Deja Vu.

Read it n' c if does the same for u as well.

Have you ever experienced a moment in your life when you just ran out of words and you go...s i l e n t ???



Let me assist you in recalling.....

the moment when you left your home for the first time and you look
back at your parents who are worried that their son/daughter are
leaving them yet happy that their child took the first step towards
independence.

the moment when the girl/boy you like most.. smiled back at you!
You don't say anything.. you just smile back..

the moment when you get better marks than you expected... those
"numb" moments of ecstasy n surprise "is that true?"...

the moment when you are parting with your old friend(s) and the
train has just started... and you are standing on the door of the
wagon.. waving "bye-bye" with your heart beating fast...

the moment after the HR manager has just called you and told
you,"You are through! Congrats!"

the moment when you sit alone in your room after having told
everyone that you cleared that exam you prepared for 6 months!!


You can go on remembering your "special" moments!

I had always wondered why I never said anything to myself at those
moments.. as if it was "understood"... happiness, joy, pain.. all
feelings just flowed ceaselessly in the 'years' that passed in those
flash moments!


They say.. the best way to communicate is through "silence".
Love. Joy. Grief. Surprise. Anger. Hope. Expectations. Support.
Non-cooperation...

Can you imagine the importance of a silent moment in a song??
When Bryan Adams stops for a while along with music, before he goes
on in his husky voice... Please forgive me. I can't stop loving you!

Ever had those moments when you thought you were tired enough that
you reach for your bed after dinner.. but find yourself wide awake
looking at the roof of your room silently...

But you sure are 'thinking'... those moments of self-talk are the
most important in our lives. Those moments when we listen to our own
hearts! Those promises... those decisions... those are the moments
when we make our destinies!

Next time you go silent... listen carefully to what your heart is
saying.. listen to its joy...listen to its pain.. listen to its
fears.. listen to its desires..

Don't make it shut up and go off to sleep...

LISTEN TO THAT VOICE and ACCEPT EVERYTHING IT SAYS!
That voice alone can lead you to the abode of peace that your sleep
lacks... peace that awaits you!

Great article.

Have you ever read The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle? Really powerful. If you ever get a chance...it would also recommend going to Anthony Robbins seminar. Such raw emotion and power and much more. It was truly a life altering experience for me.
