We react to others' actions and needs but solace and inspiration come from within. What others' think of us is then water off duck's back.The good we do is interred with our bones but our mistakes outlive us! ... http://writing.wikinut.com/Times-of-the-Day-are-like-Seasons-of-the-Year/nxjdx1tb/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Times-of-the-Day-are-like-Seasons-of-the-Year/nxjdx1tb/ Sun, 12 May 2013 01:11:37 GMT A new dawn can rise only when we listen to the inner consciousness where our Kingdom of Heaven reigns at least as long as we exist in our present state. A turn of consciousness should happen to refocus our efforts for inclusive society and oneness. http://writing.wikinut.com/The-Darkness-before-Dawn/1ooni57x/ http://writing.wikinut.com/The-Darkness-before-Dawn/1ooni57x/ Sat, 04 May 2013 15:39:30 GMT We learn the basics of proper behavior from young but the world around us races ahead by not heeding them. We have to be patient, calm and keep our cool. Eventually, we will be rewarded in more enduring ways than by those that prove transient. http://writing.wikinut.com/Learning%2C-Unlearning-and-Relearning-in-Life/2rwnge19/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Learning%2C-Unlearning-and-Relearning-in-Life/2rwnge19/ Sat, 27 Apr 2013 03:51:36 GMT True meaning in our lives and peace will be possible only through a just and inclusive society. The rich-poor divide should be bridged; now the chasm is getting wider even in communist and poor countries leading to stress within society. http://writing.wikinut.com/Onward%2C-Forward-towards-a-Just-Society/1m6rk2mh/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Onward%2C-Forward-towards-a-Just-Society/1m6rk2mh/ Sun, 21 Apr 2013 02:05:45 GMT Our lifestyles are clearly unsustainable and untenable. We carry many a baggage that we can do without and finally leave empty handed. Let us bid adieu with a lightness of being without a second thought when the call comes; for that, our minds should be focused on goals for sustainabl... http://writing.wikinut.com/Lighten-the-Load-from-our-Minds/2j0bj3u6/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Lighten-the-Load-from-our-Minds/2j0bj3u6/ Sun, 14 Apr 2013 01:27:51 GMT There is a method in the working of Universe which may not be apparent now. Justice will be served eventually. Our actions give us solace or boomerang on us for our willful deeds. None should shortchange others and thereby divide society for personal gains. http://writing.wikinut.com/Middle-Path-for-Inclusive-Society/2qv54l_w/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Middle-Path-for-Inclusive-Society/2qv54l_w/ Sat, 06 Apr 2013 03:10:12 GMT We manage to complete the race of life despite the strife and challenges. In a way that makes it all worth the while. However, we have to move another notch to make our lives more meaningful and wholesome. Looking inward in contemplation for wisdom than just reacting to sounds and sig... http://writing.wikinut.com/What-We-Yearn-For/19oqx9qu/ http://writing.wikinut.com/What-We-Yearn-For/19oqx9qu/ Sat, 30 Mar 2013 00:59:40 GMT Democracy and Freedom go hand in hand. Sadly, they have proven to be elusive to vast majority when few call the tune whoever is in power. The lofty ideal of government of the people,by the people and for the people remains a mirage for most. Time for the next positive step. http://writing.wikinut.com/Democracy-at-Crossroads/3p7e2qcd/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Democracy-at-Crossroads/3p7e2qcd/ Sun, 24 Mar 2013 00:44:17 GMT Progress in Science & Technology is palpable but the duality of Creation makes such advancement deceptive. They can boomerang on us when we ignore the basics of what life is about. http://writing.wikinut.com/Have-We-Reached-the-Peak-of-Achievement/1a0z7glf/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Have-We-Reached-the-Peak-of-Achievement/1a0z7glf/ Sat, 16 Mar 2013 03:17:22 GMT It is a daily challenge to find meaning in our lives as we fall into despair easily. Who am I? is worth pondering to keep our focus whenever we feel lost. We are just part of the whole process of creation and set to merge with the One eventually. http://writing.wikinut.com/Who-Am-I/212_5960/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Who-Am-I/212_5960/ Sun, 10 Mar 2013 00:58:25 GMT Our thoughts and actions originate from the same source. Moral dualism is at play every moment and it is up to us to overcome the challenges posed by them. We should never forget this is a shared world underpinned by coexistence and harmony. http://writing.wikinut.com/Love-and-Hate-Emanate-from-the-Same-Source/24a3e6_7/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Love-and-Hate-Emanate-from-the-Same-Source/24a3e6_7/ Sun, 03 Mar 2013 02:56:11 GMT Our Creator has made sure that we find heaven right here on earth. We are given total freedom to be in charge of our destiny including that of our fellow travelers. We need to take a deep breath, ponder and count our blessings. http://writing.wikinut.com/Are-We-Not-in-Heaven-Now/3ur90djn/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Are-We-Not-in-Heaven-Now/3ur90djn/ Sun, 24 Feb 2013 01:31:08 GMT Life could well be a dream, but proving longer than the norm. However, we can wake up right here through forging better cooperation, learning from our mistakes and rising to higher consciousness. That way we are released from self-defeating pursuits that doom us repeatedly. http://writing.wikinut.com/Life-is-a-Dream%2C-Just-a-bit-Long/7e75zg_a/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Life-is-a-Dream%2C-Just-a-bit-Long/7e75zg_a/ Sun, 17 Feb 2013 09:09:17 GMT A change in the way we perceive life and towards positivism will bring a sea change in our lives. Let us not forget that we are at the apex of all species; thus masters of not only our destiny but also of our fellow travelers. http://health.wikinut.com/When-All-Doors-Shut%2C-Look-out-for-a-Window/il02b_-5/ http://health.wikinut.com/When-All-Doors-Shut%2C-Look-out-for-a-Window/il02b_-5/ Sun, 10 Feb 2013 04:01:45 GMT The need of the hour is a change in our lifestyle and focus on the right priorities. Whatever progress we make in scientific and technological fields will prove of little value if we do not have the basic for a fulfilling life - Peace of Mind. That requires an awareness of what motiva... http://writing.wikinut.com/The-Priceless-Peace-of-Mind/1-r-yh-d/ http://writing.wikinut.com/The-Priceless-Peace-of-Mind/1-r-yh-d/ Sun, 03 Feb 2013 02:37:25 GMT The hopes and aspirations of innocent majority remain stymied as politicians play endless politics to suit their agenda. This has happened all through our history. Even the advent of democratic process and the freedom that we enjoy are unable to make a dent on this seemingly insurmoun... http://writing.wikinut.com/Endless-Fight-between-Good-and-Evil%3A-Innocent-Majority-Caught-in-Between/32n88u18/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Endless-Fight-between-Good-and-Evil%3A-Innocent-Majority-Caught-in-Between/32n88u18/ Sun, 27 Jan 2013 02:22:50 GMT We have no idea why we are here, neither do we know where we come from, if at all. We cannot choose our parents. What matters is the time between birth and death and the endless choices to make our lives fulfilled. No one needs to be a loser unless we choose to! http://writing.wikinut.com/We-Come-Alone-and-Leave-Alone-%E2%80%93-Time-In-between-Matters/3wrrq_s0/ http://writing.wikinut.com/We-Come-Alone-and-Leave-Alone-%E2%80%93-Time-In-between-Matters/3wrrq_s0/ Sun, 20 Jan 2013 02:44:06 GMT A minority is able to manipulate democracy and freedom to their advantage. The slip between the cup and the lip plays out ad nauseam to the chagrin of the majority. http://writing.wikinut.com/Deliverance-from-Unbridled-Democracy%2C-Unfettered-Freedom/16ea693_/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Deliverance-from-Unbridled-Democracy%2C-Unfettered-Freedom/16ea693_/ Sun, 13 Jan 2013 02:05:57 GMT Though Mayan calendar has ended with relief, we have reached crossroad in our history. Time to take a deep breath. Business as usual is no more a viable option as further divisions and hatred will doom us in an increasingly inter-connected world.

The beginning of a new calendar and New Year should make us reevaluate our options and to become more grateful for the dawn of each day. http://writing.wikinut.com/Bridging-Gap-between-Reality-and-Expectations/3izqfc8j/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Bridging-Gap-between-Reality-and-Expectations/3izqfc8j/ Tue, 01 Jan 2013 01:09:22 GMT Lives of great persons shower us pearls of wisdom and they include their failures too!

They should always remember those who held the ladder for them to climb high - the poor majority. http://writing.wikinut.com/Earn-Money%2C-Spend-Money/3wi3yr6p/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Earn-Money%2C-Spend-Money/3wi3yr6p/ Sat, 22 Dec 2012 01:12:06 GMT If the past is any guide we will wake up on 22nd like on any other day. However, we should make use of the frenzy leading up to 21st to do some real soul-searching as life as usual can lead to apocalypse without warning! The change should come from within us to sustain. http://writing.wikinut.com/December-21-%E2%80%93-Let-The-Change-Come-From-Within/1k81rqm-/ http://writing.wikinut.com/December-21-%E2%80%93-Let-The-Change-Come-From-Within/1k81rqm-/ Sat, 15 Dec 2012 02:18:03 GMT We have myriad choices in life but we should never forget to invest in the basics of love, positive attitude, care and share to get enduring peace and meaning in our lives. Our time to give is limited; let us make the best use of it. http://writing.wikinut.com/Invest-%E2%80%9CTime%E2%80%9D-Wisely/399ich6i/ http://writing.wikinut.com/Invest-%E2%80%9CTime%E2%80%9D-Wisely/399ich6i/ Sun, 09 Dec 2012 02:29:50 GMT We need not only the lucky breaks in life but also the wisdom to spot and seize them.
