Listening Heart

A listening heart can heal any wound

“है बनने संवरने का जब ही मज़ा, कोई देखने वाला आशिक़ तो हो, नहीं तो ये जलवे हैं बुझते दिये, कोई मिटने वाला एक आशिक़ तो हो” Catchy lines aren’t they..!!

Well this logic might not be applicable at all the instances/ situations/ people’s off-course, but 90% it’s a yes.

Most of the things people often do are to "Show-off", well even that too requires a great skill, mind it.

Basic physics law, Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, but, few manage to defy it & they don’t react somehow.

I personally believe every single person is at War,

Maybe internal war with himself,

May be with family,

May be with relative,

May be with friends,

May be with fob,

In short the war is with LIFE...!

Nevertheless, the race is long & in the end, it is only with yourself.

Have you ever thought, how many memories can a human brain store? Limitless isn’t it...? But we still tend to forget things.

Fortunately, Human body has a reserve space for some memories. The Brain is an intellectual thing; it often does not keep the unwanted memories in it.

Do you know where these unwanted memories are stored ; it is in the safest place on earth, "THE HEART".

Heart is the only place, which can recover your past within a fraction of second.

Brain can erase all your memories, but the heart will never do that, even if you want to..!!

Surprisingly, when a person has a memory loss, it is the brain, that has been formatted, but the only thing works at that time is the heart. If you can bring or create one or two small memories, the brain can recall everything from it. Beautiful isn’t it...!!

We all have equal time available with us i.e. daily 24 hours. We are the one to make the most out of it, how efficient we can utilize the time.

Remember the lines by Banni from “Ye jawani he diwani”

"वक़्त किसी के लिए रुकता नहीं, बीतता वक़्त हे और खर्च हम हो जाते हे ".

I was been recently told by my Son, the concept of Sharing. He daily shares "Lunch box" with his schoolmates. We have all been to school & we have done that, haven’t we..??

You know why I like my school days; those were the days that taught a lot, without making me suffer for it.

Unlike all, I too have learned many things the hard way.

Human nature, if something is easily available, we ignore it & if we have to work hard for it, surprisingly we will do it , because human nature ,we think, the harder the efforts, more the worth.

It is not about efforts, it is the path we choose. You always do not have to suffer to achieve something; there are simple ways as well.

Dear Jindagi

Well coming to the sharing thing, I did sharing in school days only. College life was just totally different. Canteen jindabaad. I used to eat my friends Tiffin each & every days.

I had received a Fish-pond, I cant forget. It was like,

RELEVANT IMAGE: SELF MARKETING

पहिला घास चिऊ चा

दुसरा घास काऊ चा

तिसरा घास निलेश चा

चौथा घास निलेश चा

पाचवा घास निलेश चा

सहावा घास निलेश चा

सातवा घास निलेश चा

आठवा घास निलेश चा

नववा घास निलेश चा

दहावा घास निलेश चा

"डब्बा मात्र आमचा"

I was amazed to hear that, I even received a souvenir on the stage. Where I took the mike & said, "First of all thanks my dear friends for sharing you tiffin’s with me, But throwing this fishpond will not change anything.

“मी तुमचा डबा खात होतो आणि इथून फूड पण मीच खाणार”

College life: The best days of Life.

The intention behind writing my college डबा write up is, we all do sharing, but the special stuff is shared with a few.

It may be:

A small conversation,

A phone call,

A cup of coffee/ tea,

A small ride,

A message/ email & & & the list is long.

You always have someone or you always need someone to listen to what you have to say & most importantly listen, often what you dont say.

Remember we are surrounded by lot of people with whom we daily communicate. Yet, we dont often share all the things with them. Why...?? Have you thought that.

I personally believe, "We live to Share".

There isn’t a person, "who just experiences & doesn’t share".

"कुछ पाने की खुशी तभी महसूस होती हे, जब उसे किसीके साथ Share सको"

Let me put this in other way, some unfortunate people, Just keep on updating the details on social media, do they really share..?? or is it just show-off..!! Question remains.

"Sharing isn’t public activity, its utterly personal stuff".

What people tend to do is they share personal stuff publically & share public stuff personally, this kills the romance in communication.

But what I am trying to say here is, no matter what it may be, we should always have a "Listening Heart".

Listening Heart:

1. What is a listening Heart?

2. Where is a listening Heart?

3. Who has a Listening Heart?

Well, you have the answer for all the questions.

Just remember the person, who is always there, not necessarily in need, just always present whenever required, May be in Good times & importantly in Bad times, "the presence matters".

We through everything at it & the Listening heart takes it all.

Anyone can be your listening heart:

1. Your Spouse

2. Your Sibling

3. Your Parents

4. Your Colleague

5. "Your Friend"

As always, "Friend" category has to bear a lot.

Most of the time, you will definitely find a "listening heart" in your friend.

A classic phrase “A friend in need is a friend indeed", well you can help many people by just listening what they have to say.

Every single person has lot to say, but they dont open up. I believe it is because they have not noticed their Listening heart yet.

Once an Heart specialist had said,"दिल खोल के बात करो, नहीं  तो एक दिन दिल खोलना पडेगा"

Life is a different experience to live with an open mind. If you want to fly high, you have to get rid of the unwanted luggage. If we dont speak our heart out, it is filled with it, which will eventually hold you back.

“दुनिया मी दिलसे बोलनेवाले बहोत मिलेंगे गालिब, कोई दिलसे सुनेने वाला मिले  तो क्या केहना”

Being "Selfish" is common; its sharing that requires Courage.

Remember Love ends when you stop Caring & Friendship ends when we stop Sharing.

And If you dont have a "Listening Heart”, try to be "One".
