All day i utilize number of things which are part of daily routine yet I fail to appreciate them many times…….

Time- after a recent trip of my husband to Bharat, I realized that we are blessed to be able to attend Vedantic classes and have quiet time on daily basis if we choose to, as people don’t encroach in our lives if one doesnt t allow them to.(vs the set-up, where we visit family in India- there is so much enforced uncontrolled encroachment of people leading to wastage of time on meaningless relationships and pursuits.

Family- who have always loved and supported me and i use their help and guidance all the time. They let me be me.

Home- The safety and comfort of home…..always there waiting after a long day at work with it’s warmth and familiarity.

Work-partners- who have been always been kind and understanding and always cover for me or switch calls ( especially on my frequent travels). Bharat Yatra’s may not have been possible if it was not for them.

Friends- who i may not thank enough, who inspire me to evolve every day

Healthy food to nourish the body and mind

Fire( as in stove)-TO HELP COOK

Water/electricity/ appliances/ laptop- use it daily,taking it for granted until something breaks.

Soap/shampoo/hair brush…. and such …i use without even thinking many times

Car-which transports me from home to work and number of places

Phone- with it’s million uses- from communication to internet surfing, researching.

BOOKS- that have always enriched my life since childhood.

Highlighter/pen/pencil that i use to underline the text in those incredible books.

Lastly LIFE- a priceless opportunity, a gift that I have been given to Self Realize…..Am i using it to my best potential?
