Janvi's Personal Diary-2



  Janvi's Personal Diary-2
 
23 / 9/ 13

Aaj phir 1 nayi subah ... 

Raat ko sapne me bhi ‘Lunch box ‘hi aaya! 

‘Mom, when will my happy birthday arrive?’ I asked during one of my summer vacation. At that time I was too small to understand the cycle of 12 months so my mom just to quench my thirst answered that ‘Beta, your birthday comes when rain comes!’ (August!) For eons I believed that when rain comes my birthday comes. Well, today it rained heavily in Rajkot and once again I recalled my mom’s words. Today no matter I didn’t have my birthday but something inside was born ...as...
...it was today that I realized that from so many years I am planning to make myself financially independent moreover even my elders gave me the same advice of taking the tablet of vitamin-M by myself but today no one thinks about being emotionally independent. Today one of my close friends called shalini (name changed) was so busy that she couldn’t talk with me; I felt completely ignored. ‘Usne esa quo kiya?’ ‘Have I lost my importance in her life?’ ‘Pehle to esa nahi hota tha?!’ ‘I never ignored her!’ ‘Now should I make her regret for what she did to me?’ - All such thoughts took over my mind and slowly but surely I started hurting myself. Then, I remembered Sister Shivani’s saying (Brahma Kumaris) that – Don’t put your locus of happiness outside. People don’t hurt us, we hurt ourselves. Remembering such platinum words I closed my eyes for a couple of minutes and started telling to myself ‘I am a peaceful soul’ ‘I am a powerful soul ‘...

..and I attained nirvana in myself , finally gave birth to a new; improved version of Janvi!
