Separation



Separation demands a lot of courage and patience. Separation can be from almost anything and either be temporary or permanent.

At first interpretation, separation would mean either a divorce or a breakup. But is that the only meaning it brings?
These would only be one perception of it.
  
One can be separated from their family due to work, or separation from your friends as you or they have moved. No matter what is the reason for separation it still requires strength to face it, courage to live with it, and patience to await destiny’s plan.
My mother is currently separated from my father as we have moved to another country and he could not travel with us immediately due to some pending work and added to that is the ill-fated Corona Virus. Though we miss him terribly, we know that we will soon be reunited.
My brother too misses his school and his childhood friends. Leaving all of a sudden, and for a person of his age, it disrupts the mind and his routine. Yet, he understands our problems and doesn’t make a big deal out of it.
As seen, both of them have faced major separations that they are dealing with,  having a smile across their faces.
For me separation means being away from things immensely cherished, can be the food we are used to, friends, family environment, school and the fun, the house I grew up in, the parrots flying around my balcony, the activities I would indulge in and the list goes on.
Death as a separation is the ultimate excruciating feeling. It is the separation from the loved ones who surely you will not be with anymore. Even the separation from a pet due to death is hard to take on. 

Even marriages, though happy moments, are separation from parents, siblings to a new life.

Hence, separation doesn’t mean the end either.

And that should be our mental preparation to face our separations.

Have faith in destiny and love your dear ones. Shower them with all of your care. 

Value every moment together

TREES

Green, vivid, beautiful, and cooling freshness. That is a tree! It provides us with oxygen, it brightens up places with a colourful charm.  A tree plays different roles in different seasons. During autumn , it lets down leaves of all colours for people to admire while they flow around. In spring , it grows a new family of leaves and flowers for everyone to admire and feel vivid. In summer , the fruits are mature, fleshy and sumptuous enough for us to relish on. During winter , the trees fold inside to protect themselves from the icy cold and even the frigid snow. And this process continues smoothly.  Trees need water, sunlight and carbon dioxide, which in some way, makes them related to us. Rather than related I should say interdependent as we need oxygen whereas they need the carbon dioxide. Hence we co-live! A very realistic picture is that when a child starts drawing, he/she generally starts by drawing a blessing of nature—a flower; then gradually...

Generosity

“Give more than you wish to, and you shall receive double in return”.  “The hand that gives is better than the hand that asks” . Don’t we often hear our elders preaching us such good habits since our toddlerhood? This is the virtue of generosity! Generosity is a feature that has been granted to both humans as well as animals. It reflects a kind heart. Some people might be generous from a tender age, while some might not have developed that feeling. But this a feeling that needs to be encouraged in children right at a tender age. Initially, specially, as a child, we are forced to give something and that does not make us happy. If you ask children kindly, they would be more than willing to give to you and that is such a cute act.     However the request made has got to be reasonable of course! No one has ever become poor by being generous. Instead, our value increases immensely! People respect and appreciate us.  A simpl...

Blooms of Heaven

Flowers are synonymous of happy lives. Have you ever noticed, what ladies in happy couples are mostly offered. Indeed! Flowers. Why? Simple, it brings happiness. The joy of having nature’s beauties in your hand is enough to leave you grinning from one ear to another. Their scents, the vivid colours, shape, features, all of these, combine to define a flower. Flowers are of various colours like white, purple, blue, yellow, and then, there are absolute unique ones too. Look at what all flowers have inspired us to. The obvious one is Spring’s latest fashion mode. Dresses, shirts, shorts, handbags, belts, hairband, cutlery, drapes, etc. Floral impact leaves no item untouched. Life without flowers would be like life without oxygen. That statement is basically true, since, plants do produce oxygen! I wonder if it has been proven or not, flowers might be present everywhere, even in the aridest desert, we find a little bloom on the biggest giant spine, the cactus. Flowers ...
