I'm Sorry !

One of the basic emotions that all we go through is "Guilt".  Whenever we don't deliver on what we promised or when we did not keep the promise, or when have not produced the results that is expected from us, the immediate response after we say "I'm sorry!" is the experience of guilt.

 

For some of you the reason you get into the guilt mode may be different. But all of us get into the mode of feeling guilty. There may be various reasons for feeling and experiencing the guilt.  Today we are not looking at why we experience "guilt" and how to come out of it. Rather we will look into what to do next after get into guilt mode.

 

Consider you have promised a friend that you will join in his/her birthday party.  Unfortunately you forgot. Next day you remember and you are feeling guilty about it. Does feeling guilty and miserable compensate for not attending the party?, NO

You might say that you really wanted to go and that person means lot to you.

 

If you observe guilt is cover up for not being responsible. If you really wanted to go then you could have set – up a reminder.  Written on the wall or you could asked another friend to join you or remind you. In spite of all these as human beings we may still we might forget!

 

In that case rather being guilty, we can be responsible and communicate to the impacted person that he/she really matter to you and you could not make it. That's it.

Tribute to MJ


I'm Gonna Make A Change
For Once In My Life
It's Gonna Feel Real Good
Gonna Make A Difference
Gonna Make It Right...


These are the lines from Michael Jackson's famous song "Man in the mirror". Last week the king of music Michael Jackson died. I think all of us have enjoyed his dance or music some time or the other. I remember during my school days I used sit late in the night for the Grammy Award ceremony in Doordarshan.
When they used to show Jacksons songs, it used take away all the tardiness of sitting late in the night. We used to go from place to place just to watch that one 'moon walk'.
This article is the tribute to the 'Thriller' who 'Off the wall' came out of 'Bad' publicity to create 'History' and became 'invincible '.

His message to the world --
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.

His fans all over the globe are saying ….
If I Can't Be With You
I Just Can't Stop Loving You
I Just Can't Stop Loving You
And If I Stop . . .
Then Tell Me, Just What Will I Do
I Just Can't Stop Loving You

The belief system, I so agree with it.

The universe has a strange way of presenting itself to give every time you need, want or desire something. Only that you have to ask yourself if you were in the place to receive it. There is miracle happening every moment, you just got to be in that place. The place of receiving it.
There is a story I heard:
Once a man died and the angel came to lead him to the gate of heaven. He saw many things lined up along the way, and every thing was what he needed, wanted and desired in life. He asks the angel “whose things are these?” She says “yours, you did not pick them up”

I always thought that it usually is ‘love’ at the bottom of it all for what a human being is in search of. Strangely it is not because:
Say, if money was what you were after for the house you wanted to buy, may be it is not the house itself, it is the feeling of living in that house.
Next, who will be witness to this feeling and then will this be witnessed with love????
You set out to choose, of who can be witness to your feelings and who you can share it with. You would also like to give a meaning to your feelings that determines the life you will choose to live and to live that life you set ideals, standards, principles and values. These will need maintenance and will need money so you get busy to go after the money. The cycle continues.
Though there was an intention of love to dwell in every aspect, your home, your companion as your witness, the meaning you want to give to your life, but the actions that you take here leaves you only working hard. The feeling that you wanted to experience is often lost.

What I learnt was that each of what we go about in pursuit of is a form of energy… the money, the feeling, the feeling which gives rise to wants, needs and desires…..though I see that they are separate areas in life, we weave it and collapse one area over the other, slowly this becomes life. And now why and where you began this quest …were you looking for love??? Ironically, loving is giving and if you go looking for it you will never find it… the cycle continues yet…
