Be The Change

"Live as if your were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever"

--Mahatma Gandhi

My Thoughts:

I chose this particular Quote for my first Blog because of three reasons:

1. Its speaks about Life and death -- Lets take a situation when a person knows he is going to die the next day…..would he spend his day in the same way as he had been doing all his life?

2. It speaks about continuous learning -- I always feel that Life is trying to teach me a lot each day….each moment…..and what is Life trying to teach me….? I think it is teaching me what it is…!

3. The Quote is by Gandhi-ji – It is no wonder to have such precious words of wisdom from one of the most influential person in the history of this world, whom we call as Mahatma (Superior Soul).

These were my thoughts on this quote. Looking forward to know about your thoughts and please correct me if I am wrong in any sense.

Appearance of People

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Saturday, 7 Mar '09

“Beware so long as you live, of judging people by appearances.”

--La Fontaine

My Thoughts:
Have you seen Mahatma Gandhi? If you look at his appearance, you would see an old man, thin, without shirt……simple person.

If you have judged him by his appearance, then you might think that he is such an ordinary man. But the reality is that inside this simple appearance he was a great man. So don’t judge people by appearances, its only a illusion.

A dictator inside you

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Saturday, 4 Oct '08

"The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within."

--Mahatma Gandhi

My Thoughts:
We all must have experience this at some or the other time in Life that whenever we do something wrong or something not good for yourself, you hear a voice from your heart. Most people also called this Gut feeling.

Whatever this is but, I believe, it is certainly guidance from Allah Almighty. Most of people find obeying the “worldly” dictators much easier than the internal one. But Great men like Mahatma Gandhi choose the otherwise. And this take a lot of courage.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world."

--Mahatma Gandhi

My Thoughts:
We always make statements such as “why doesn’t he cares for me”, “My Boss is a jerk”, “Oh God! That was Pathetic” and so on. But we fail to see that if we want to see things the way you want to seen, all you have to do is change yourself.

The change should start from you. And believe me change is a contagious phenomenon, When people see you changing they respect your behavior and respond to you positively

That was my thoughts on changing the World. What about you…?
