Maybe.......

MAY BE.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Read this somewhere....thought would be great to share with you all...
It's the first time am posting something which is not mine...but these words are all worth it :)


Maybe. . we were supposed to meet the
wrong people before meeting the right
one so that, when we finally meet the
right person, we will know how to be
grateful for that gift.



Maybe . . . it is true that we don't
know what we have until we lose it,
but it is also true that we don't know
what we have been missing until it
arrives.

Maybe . . . the brightest future will
always be based on a forgotten past;
after all, you can't go on
successfully in life until you let go
of your past mistakes, failures and
heartaches.


Maybe . . you should hope for enough
happiness to make you sweet, enough
trials to make you strong, enough
sorrow to keep you human, and enough
hope to make you happy.


Maybe . . . the happiest of people
don't necessarily have the best of
everything; they just make the most of
everything that comes along their way.

Maybe .. . . the best kind of friend is
the kind you can sit on a porch and
swing with, never say a word, and then
walk away feeling like it was the best
conversation you've ever had.


Maybe . . . happiness waits for all
those who cry, all those who hurt, all
those who have searched, and all those
who have tried, for only they can
appreciate the importance of all the
people who have touched their lives.


May be . . you should do something nice
for someone every single day, even if
it is simply to leave them alone.


Maybe . . . there are moments in life
when you miss someone -- a parent, a
spouse, a friend, a child -- so much
that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real, so
that once they are around you
appreciate them more.


Maybe … giving someone all your love
is never an assurance that they will
love you back. Don't expect love in
return; just wait for it to grow in
their heart; but, if it doesn't, be
content that it grew in yours.


Maybe .. . . you should dream what you
want to dream; go where you want to
go, be what you want to be, because
you have only one life and one chance
to do all the things you dream of, and
want to do.

Enjoy every moment, good or bad, because the GIFT of LIFE is LIFE itself…."

To Do or Not To Do

“Wish I had just two more hours in a day” – Do you find yourself saying this often to yourself?

Life in a metro makes the concept of “Effective Time Management” almost a laughable one. Most of the modern couples, who are both working and juggling life and work, would do anything to get a few more hours in a day. Isnt it?
Life is no different for me either... Living in the midst of the city’s hustle and bustle, the morning ragas start with sending off my little one’s to their schools along with their snack / lunch / project / and something else always to tag along with their heavy school bags.

A full five minutes of coffee in my balcony seems to be the ultimate luxury for me amidst the morning chaos. Another 10 mins of newspaper? I don’t get tempted too... what else do we do in office ?? :P I shall be enlightened with what the world is up to, when am more at leisure, Read Office :)
The morning though, all what goes on my mind is to get everyone and everything in proper times and proper shapes.

Most of the working women face the dual challenge of home / work time management. Forget gym, yoga or any other personal hobby, women hardly have time to even spend quality time with their little ones. Most of them are either in the day care/ with grandparents whose roles can never be replaced with the parents themselves.

But then, who’s going to pay for the iPods and the annual holidays and the multiplex weekend movies? With inflation, is it possible to raise demanding 21st century kids with a single income? Is it ok for them to spend a lot of time with strangers rather than yourself, just because you promise them a better lifestyle? What matters to kids? Is it the lifestyle / is it your presence?

It still pinches me to see my neighbour who can afford to take her kid for tennis after school. It’s the time she can afford for her kid, while I am still wondering if that homemaker is richer than me. Indeed she is. Most of the tennis schools are off by 6, which is only when me-the mommy is alive again. So what if I earn more... am still not able to drive my son in our brand new car to his favourite sport:(
(Pssst: our neighbour uses a bike).....Why is life so crazy!!!!

I agree, its not just money that women go out for. It’s for their identity, their talent (which should not be spent within the confines of a home), for a better exposure and ultimately, for a better lifestyle.

I just wonder, if it’s entirely possible to achieve all this, without the guilt of leaving your little ones waiting for you to pick them up from the day care...

Leave your suggestions ....
