Highway Matters!

Hello , My friends!
You might be surprised to see the title of my post, but its what really matters. We all go for long drives sometimes through the country sides ,sometimes visiting the most beautiful places and sometimes driving to explore ourselves!! yes , driving to explore ourselves.

Every drive is a kind of lesson of life. I almost enjoyed all my long drives,whether its during the summer,winter or fall. The most important thing is learning. We all think of a destination, then plan for it seeing the routes and direction along with the weather conditions and then get set for it. Here we know for sure that the destination we set is confirmed to be achieved if we follow our route without fail, unknowing of the circumstances which may lead to change our direction.
Same we can think for our own destinations which we set in our life. The Highway represents our plan and the drive is our Hard work. We need to keep driving just the case we keep driving on the road ,even if it rains or snows.The turns and twists of the road are just the way we have in life.But one thing for sure is if we keep following our plan we are bound to achieve what we want.
Sometimes when we go through foggy conditions, we cannot see anything infront,when we go through country sides there are no street lights, but we keep up our drive within the lines with a thought in our mind that yes, eventhough we cannot see anything but this way is our way and we are bound to reach the place we decided.Then why not the same we can think of our own life. When the road is all snowy and icy, the tires may skid , we may loose control but even then we keep on going, with the same repeated thought that no matter what it is , atlast it won't be same and conditions will change.

At the same time the drive during the Spring and the Fall which are the most beautiful seasons of the year fills our heart with thrill and excitement .Both these seasons are having a unique pecularity, Spring is after the horrible winter time and Fall is after the hot summer time.  This makes us understand that nothing is stationary." Life is all about Moving on"
So , My dear children always think. Whenever you go for a drive look at the highway through a different angle.Its the inspiration for all of us ,which says "Keep Going". "Me and Life are twins" ,
 I can have twists ,I can have turns, But I may turn beautiful ,
I can be high or I can be low:
I can be at times difficult , but stay steady and I shall turn wonderful.
You may skid ,you may loose control;
But ,hold on tight this is not all.
Stick to your way,stick to your plan;
I promise , Nothing will stop you;
If  YOU MOVE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Story of a shirt

Hello kids,
You are my inspiration ,you are the one who are the symbol of innocence and make us understand howto be happy in any case. One day I was just taking a walk and thought of you as i always do and all of a sudden this story came to my mind which I would like to tell you.
So sit back and read .
Once upon a time there was a shirt named Gyana ,he was just new and got fresh from the store .He was very proud of his shine and color and style. He represented the latest fashion of the season. He was so delighted when his master wore him. With all his might and power he use to say "I am the best of all". Because of his fame and style,his friends use to jealous of him and always thought of some or the other way to go at par with him,but they could never do so.
Like this days went by,but suddenly what happened! Another person named Plona took the charge of the Gyana and took him away to a different country. Gyana ,as he was very proud of his style and power started enjoying with his master in the country,but this master was not that kind of sincere in taking care of him,he just used him and used him and used him.
At last the masters attitude towards him changed as Gyana started loosing his style, power, his shine and then got disheartened ,he started loosing confidence .whenever he got out ,his only thought was avoid others.He was not even worth seeing. One day he got so disheartened that he started thinking of     Never getting back his own signature shine .
He cried and remembered his old master,and then magically a person came and asked Plona, " should I clean this shirt, it seems it's not been washed and ironed since many days.Let me make it look like brand new. Plona agreed ,as he was a lazy guy and wanted help anytime if offered. Gyana was a little scared and said to the person ," I am afraid of going into the washer and then the dryer". It's going to hurt me,twist me,heat me like anything,I don't want to go ....". " I don't think nothing is going to change me,I have lost hope in myself"
The magical person made him understand that life is like a washing machine where you hopeless mind need twist and turns and a great wash and heat to charge you up back to fight for life . He said "Don't loose hope , I am here to change you and shall give you your old shine." .Gyana agreed.
Soon ,Gyana turned into original Gyana with all confidence and shine and vigor he stepped out and understood the little fact.....
Hard twists and turns can only give us the power to fight for our self esteem!
