Ventures into Love : Day 1

Hiyaaaaaaa!!!! I am so excited about this! I am going to begin a 'blog journal entry..' thingy about this thirty day project.
To be more precise, Mike Dooley's Love your Life in 30 Days Project. Considering that this project blossoms into existence every January, starting from the New Year Day, I might be slightly off with this, beginning it in July( July 2 nonetheless). Well, I believe that every moment in time is a chance to start over, a chance for beginning afresh, because there ain’t nobody keeping account of you, babe!
The first day begins bright and shiny because we get to 'Get Clear with Our Priorities'.


We have to name at least five general areas in life in which we wish to see change and transformation in. And the idea here is to let go and think of a bigger picture, a bigger, more open idea of how you want your life to be like. For example, instead of going 'I want a wardrobe with the hottest of S/S 18’ or 'I want an air ticket for a ‘round the world’ trip’, we keep it general. We pick 'Money' as the area of change. Or 'Adventure'. See? General, light, breezy and easy.
Choosing a general area for change instead of attaching to specific details allows so much room for exciting possibilities.
Frankly speaking, this project is a huge relief to me. Talk about ultimate liberation from any kind of pressure! You don’t have to chase your dreams ( phew!). And , you don’t have to know what you want either!
 Having to know exactly what you want can be a heavy burden to bear, when you have this huge sense of doubt about what you actually want; what if you choose wrong?
And I have experienced the weight of attachments in times when a particular event, object or situation I was gripping to, slips away despite my hardest efforts. And the moment it leaves, I don’t feel sad. Instead, I feel this feeling of extraordinary peace and humongous relief.
Sometimes, confusion and fear abounds about making choices. What if we choose wrong?
All these worries and fears go right out of the window with this way of defining life goals.
 Besides, what is it that we actually want?
To feel good, to feel powerful, loved and in love, extraordinary and amazing, exhilarated and surprised, excited and happy… and it goes on and on.
But our goals are rarely painted in this way.
 We usually have this list of material things that we think will eventually give us all that was in the above list.
Sometimes, we get it right! That aromatherapy set( guilty😁) might actually be the solution for harmonious evenings. But many other times, we get it horrendously wrong. That is because what we see with our physical senses is so limited that it is impossible to see the magical unseen at work.
Keeping it general however, takes all that burden away, just like that.
So, here I am, declaring my general areas of change, listed according to priority:
1. Health
2. Abundance
3. Prosperity
4. Career
5. Family
Okay, I couldn’t resist. Here’s five more:
6. Spirituality
7. Creativity
8. Adventure
9. Love
10. Harmony
That’s it for today! Tata till tomorrow!😘😘😘

My Gratitude List

Gratitude is a beautiful thing for those who really practice it; it has the power to change any situation, whether in the past, the present or the future, bringing new perspectives , creating new paths for one to take and opening one's eyes to the magic of life.  Rhonda Byrne's book 'The Magic' truly changed me in ways that I can hardly comprehend. And when I changed, the things around me changed too. All of a sudden dreams were coming true and joy was all there was.    It's been a while now and I was thinking about blogging about its sheer awesomeness and stuff. But then I was like, ' Why not blog my daily morning gratitude list itself?'  My reasons are these: Firstly , if I am going to post my thank yous , I will be putting a lot of thought into it, so much more than if it were just a daily routine, like brushing. Secondly, when I was first starting out with the law of attraction wave and living my dreams and all these new age-y things, I was alw

Magical Relationships

Day 3!!! Woahhh.....Vanmathi is feeling buoyant today! I guess its the magic keeping me in high spirits. And I haven't even got to today's practices yet! Here we go... Day 3: Gratitude List: 1.I am grateful for the complete lack of mirrors in this house because I can pretend that I look like Gigi Hadid one day and Deepika Padukone, the next day and there is absolutely nothing present to contradict me! 2.I am so so grateful that I have to live in a hostel because it is a party, every time I come home and my sis treats me like a person rather than a fluffy cushion she can sit on. 3.Thank you so much, dear people who travel and take pictures of food ,culture and art and print it in magazines because it is a real treat to eyes like mine that only got to see cadavers in various states of damage. 4.I am grateful for the new pen stand idea that saves me space and also looks quite cool. 5.I am grateful for the clock that is not working because it means I have all t

Born to Fly...

Once, there was a girl. She wanted to fly. Really bad. She looked out of the window everyday, hoping for a miracle. She imagined the air in her face and the wind beneath her feet. She tasted the freedom in the wind and laughed in anticipation. She waited and wished and hoped, for she believed, deep in her heart, that the impossible was just something that hadn’t yet manifested. Which didn’t mean that it wouldn’t. So she stood on top of hills and tall buildings, assessing heights and measuring winds. She talked about her dream to everyone who would listen for it never ceased to amaze her, how wonderful a dream she had. She leapt and twirled and jumped as high as she could, before gravity pulled her down. But she never stopped believing. Both words of scorn and wisdom, failed to faze her. She dreamed, undaunted. Until, one day, she got sick of waiting. She hadn’t sprouted wings nor did she feel suddenly weightless. She didn’t spontaneously rise into the air as she hoped she woul
