Had a glimpse of this, in one of the hospitals.....
Diabetes starts with fat and ends with ...
Diabetic
Retinopathy
Causes blindness and visual disability.
Diabetic
Neuropathy
Sensory loss and damage in nerves.
Diabetic
Heart
Disease
Damages blood vessel in the heart.
Diabetic
Dyslipidemia
Increased cholesterol blocks your arteries.
Diabetic
Nephropathy
Affect the kidneys.
Diabetic
Foot
Disease
Ulceration and subsequent limb amputation.
So, keep your blood sugar levels under control!!!
Birth --> Education --> Career --> Marriage --> Children --> Retirement --> Old Age --> Death.
We do all go through this, though not specifically in the same order. The common part is, Birth --> Leading Life --> Death.
We just don't lead life, since we are alive. We all try to achieve something as we go through all these elements with a sense of satisfaction. And it is purely, our own self progress with unique experiences. But, at some point of time, we might question ourselves, is this what life is all about? (since, all these are common)
And, that's where, complete satisfaction will come into picture, when we start helping the people who are in need and automatically, we'll be out of this loop. Though, birth and death can't be changed, living/leading life can be.
When Mother Teresa received her Nobel Prize she was asked, "What can we do to promote world peace?" She replied, "Go home and love your family."
We should seize every opportunity to give encouragement. Encouragement is oxygen to the soul.
Leonard Ravenhill once said about prayer, "One might estimate the weight of the world, tell the size of the celestial city, count the stars of heaven, measure the speed of lightning, and tell the time of the rising and the setting of the sun - but you cannot estimate prayer-power. Prayer is as vast as God because He is behind it. Prayer is as mighty as God because He has committed Himself to answer it."
You may give without loving, but you cannot love without giving.
When I come to the end of my rope, God is there to take over.
In trying times, don't quit trying.
Do not follow where the path may lead - go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

From past few days, I had a question pondering in my mind, the difference between Self-realization and Devotion. And, this went out with a series of thoughts. I personally feel devotion comes with love and when true to the self. And, this can be towards the work we do or even towards God. And, Self-realization is an analysis of what are we and the direction we are moving to. But still, is there any connection between both? Yes, devotion leads to self-realization and vice-versa. Our commitment with love towards anything tells us what we are and that is self-realization. When we correct ourselves by moving towards the right path, we are becoming true to our Self and will start doing anything with devotion. Now, I think, I got my answer.... :). If any, do post your views too.

Tagged by dear Sush, and so here I go. What I need to do, is to list out my favourite material possessions.
From my childhood , I was accumulated with greeting cards which I preserve them even now. Even slam books took their role. Gradually, I treasured SAI's posters and books, which I even got them in the form of gifts. As days passed on, my collections included key chains, soft toys, hand bags, artificial flowers and now my blog(which itself is a precious collection). But, the gifts me and H exchanged were lost while returning from US initially (which were in one of the boxes, on the way through ship), since they were not insured. A painful memory. Might be, a lesson to not be attached. Learning still. :). Life is a series of lessons, right?
Now, have a glance through few of my collections.
Now, I tag everyone who visits my blog. Do take up, when you find time.
