The Secret To Happiness

“ Happiness comes only when we push our brains and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable. ”

— Leo Rosten

The Feeling when we lose someone very endearing!

I lost someone who I loved so much: My Grandmother. One thing which will always remain in my heart, is her caring nature and her powerful personality. I would have some regret that I was not able to meet her before she left this world. She understood that I had my studies going on in the U.S., and I was not able to leave the country in such a short notice.

Her memories will always be in my heart, forever. I will surely become the person I promised to you! R.I.P. Rama Barbhaiya

Powerful: Beyond Measure

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Used by Nelson Mandela in his 1994 inaugural speech
