Year - 2019

Hi... Its been an year or so that I could not write any post. Actually, I was always busy in doing something that even after starting new posts many times, I could not complete them, so did not publish them. But, today, suddenly, I read my older posts and found them interesting, so got motivated to write some more, to make new memories.

So, let us start...

    Since its almost end of this year 2019, it would be better to recall the events of this year. Surely this year was the "year of events" for India and me. How?

1)- Lok Sabha elections were held and our country saw the victory of BJP with full majority. It was not much expected earlier, but surgical strikes by Indian Army on terrorist camps in PoK just before elections played a major role in sweeping public opinion in the favour of  existing BJP government. No doubt, BJP was always stern on security matters of the nation. 

2)- Then just after taking charge of new Government, the new cabinet took some more serious decisions and passed some important bills. These bills were the main agenda of ruling party and were also the long pending desires of our nation. The bills were related to abolishment of 'triple talaq' system of muslim community and article 370 of Indian Constitution related to Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh state. 

  Really, Modi government was strong enough to make laws on every long pending issue. 

3)- Supreme Court's decision on Ram Mandir of Ayodhya is another long pending issue of the nation. 

4)- Other big thing of the year was Cricket world cup in which Indian team participated under the captaincy of Virat Kohli but it could not win the cup as it used to, in the captaincy of M.S. Dhoni. 

5)- A big change also took place in my personal life. I got transferred from New Delhi to Nagpur after my written request  to department on spouse grounds. So finally I have joined my new office in Nagpur in winters season. Feeling good in Nagpur, as now I am taking breath in a pollution-free atmosphere or may be in an 'air with less pollution than Delhi'. More greenery, more chirping of birds, less traffic, less crowd etc. Getting familiar with "Marathi Manus". And obviously, tasting Nagpur oranges and other specialities of the 'Vidarbh' and 'Marathwada' regions of Maharashtra. Weather is nice here and people are also nice according to my experience so far. And last but not least, the company of my husband after a long time gives this new journey a new experience. 

    This life always changes and shows us many new things to learn from. At every moment of life we can learn new things if we want. I think, this life is given to us to be a better person internally/externally. Mainly internally, because what is inside is more important than what is outside. Our outer shell  i.e. our body is in the process of continous decay whether we want it or not. Though we want to remain young and strong but our body will get older day by day, so we don't have control over it. However, we have somewhat control over our nature i.e. mind and thoughts. At any point of time in life, if we decide, we can change any of the habit, we want to get rid of. Bapuji says, body doesn't go with us after our death but its our nature that decides our next birth or our new journey. That's why Bhagwan Shri Krishna says in Bhagwadgeeta, "Swabhav Vijayeti Shauryam". Means its  bravery for human being to win over the bad aspects of his nature. 

   So, I shall make efforts to learn good things from the environment and shall try to get rid of the weaknesses of my nature.

               That's all for today!  Bye 😊
