Being 'irrationally' positive



 





It is 5'o clock in the evening. Trees bow before the vastness of the sky. The ecosystem is set for the viewers to get inspired for the higher vision to aim for. But the energy is fading in the background. Almost like one would want to take a nap under the tree. The stillness around compels one to take a moment to breathe; remain calm to confront the uncertainties. But how can a daily wager stop? His next meal is undecided!

 

When the circumstances seem tough, a glance at the nature could assure one that there lies a ray of hope. One may want to call it a state of being 'irrationally' positive. But how does it work? Do the trees preaching solidarity know that the gap between the 'Haves' and 'Haves not' is increasing? Does the wind know that we have been pushed into unexpected unknowable? 

 

At times being 'irrationally' positive encourages one to believe in oneself and take steps with courage when all seems dull and negative. And are we left with any other option than to take inspiration from Dusk which gradually turns into Dawn; inviting the 'healing' sun rays to reach out to the 'patiently waiting' land?

Takeaways from the Council of Europe

Image
  The Council of Europe is an international organization based in Strasbourg. This is of the key institution that promotes human rights, democracy, and the rule of law across Europe.  I attended the presentation on the work of GRETA (Group of Experts on Action against Trafficking in Human Beings). I was glad to learn that at the Council of Europe, regular summits and meetings are held to discuss key issues and priorities of the organization, and this time in May 2023, the summit will be held in solidarity with Ukraine. Today the flag of the EU which has become a shared symbol of European integration was chosen in 1955 by the Council of Europe and eventually adopted by the EU in 1985. I managed to get collect some interesting facts regarding the Council of Europe but I'm always on the lookout to learn more ...

Nuances in life

Image
  At times we want to pen down our thoughts of the times when we were speechless. Sometimes the words are not enough. Sometimes the time passes too fast. Or sometimes we sit with a pen but the paper in front remains un-inked for hours.   Every conversation that begins with 'Hello' carves its own path - long or short. Sometimes so short that it begins and ends with the same 'Hello'. Or sometimes we stand and immerse ourselves into the short silences during the conversation.   Why are these nuances in life?   Sometimes the sky is multicolored and sometimes simply blue. At times the breeze is too strong and sometimes it is all still. The walks in the woods relax us and sometimes the stress of performing breaks us.   We are the followers who lead at times. We are the change makers who resist at times. We, who are trained to run, are also at times expected to remain motionless.   Why are these nuances in life?   Some sea shells, broken or intact, lie at the...

The Noise and The Silence

Image
    The rays of sunlight were reaching out to the muddy road through the leaves of the dense trees. And there was a complete silence. As if the silence was ready to write its own story. The clear blue sky would witness the story writing. Till now several sounds had evoked sentiments, what would the silence want to express? The pages of the book waited to be inked.    In the background, a butterfly was playing with the wind and some birds were flying from one branch to another. But the silence was focussed on the leaves soaked in sunlight. The book laid on her side. The usual hustle and bustle was rendered calm. The benches laid empty. The fresh green grass on the side of the muddy road looked greener than ever before. It felt that the surrounding was helping the silence to express herself.    The silence turned the un -inked pages of the book. And after several years...   The noise and the usual hustle and bustle of the city life returned. The sil...
