Friendship - An Isolated Thinking


First of all I would like to pardon all my friends, who were not able to enjoy the beauty of the words above because of the language it is written. This is the one among the mails I gifted from my friends on this Friendship Day (probably the best among them). Also many of my friends would have received the same.

Hmmm... Friendship!!! I am not the one to give definition to this concept (Eh! is that only a concept?.... My failure is sooo pathetic. I couldn't even find the term, what it is?....). Anyway, let me try to think about something....

In the words of some
Philosophers "Friendship is a term used to symbolize co-operative and supportive behavior between two or more humans."...So far so good, But Ah!, really speaking I am not satisfied with this.....I would like to have some more talks upon this subject. The great ancient Greeks on have traditionally distinguished three notions that can properly be called love: agape, eros, and philia.

Agape is an affection that does not respond to the antecedent value of its object but as a thought to create value in the beloved; it has come through the Christian tradition to mean the sort of love God has for us persons as well as, by extension, our love for God and our love for humankind in general. Eros and Philia are generally understood to be responsive to the merits of their objects—to the beloved's properties, especially his goodness or beauty. The difference is that eros is a kind of passionate desire for an object, typically sexual in nature, whereas philia originally meant a kind of affectionate regard or friendly feeling towards not just one's friends but also possibly towards family members, business partners, and one's country at large.

In philosophical discussions of friendship,
it is ideal to follow Aristotle, friendships of pleasure, of utility, and of virtue. Although it is a bit unclear how to understand these distinctions, the basic idea seems to be that pleasure, utility, and virtue are the reasons we have in these various kinds of relationships for loving our friend.

It basically involve the mutual understanding and co-operation between two persons or a group.

My words, essentially friendship is all about
"Some kind of concern about your friend or friends, a distinctive concern which might reasonably be understood as some kind of love, with some cause...."

Art of Heart - Food for Thought

Recently I got a mail from one of my friend. The pictures and embedded words inside are too much touching that i decided to put them in my blog.....




Look those evergreen leaves and crystal fresh water droplets....Like the mother nature, heart is like a greenery of life that gives the whole lot for masses.... Like one red rose spreading its fragrance, for a heart flooding with peace, some few dew drops spilling out from them is sufficient to make the whole world a garden.....



Some one refers heart like a symbol of belief, At times, like a rock in hurricane, it hangs to its beliefs disregarding whatever coming across.....One of the sensible representation of heart. It represents feelings and worries in relationships. heart is represented as the symbol of emotional human affairs.

Those eyes - ever never escape from its magic?



Like the one planning suicide, staring into the depths, I kept looking in to her eyes.....

Those magical eyes, which transformed a mischievous school boy to nut poet and valentine

with just one wink, and extruded him into endless courses of chronicle.....

Their sparkles flooded into emptiness of my mind…


Rewording - a simple self work

Life, Success and Positive Thinking




Life is an adventure with plenty of eventful phases. One will be successful when he or she is one who lives well, laughs often, and adored much, gains respect, lives world better than they can find it. They will never lack appreciation for earth's beauty or fails to look for the best in others or give the best of themselves.

Some events in life bring the joy of fulfilling experience and well being, while others make us pessimistic and contemplative. Both have their own significance in paving the way to our goals. But one thing that keeps unchanging throughout this sojourn is our individual spirit. A spirit that reveals our inner self, a spirit that prepares the way during gains or falls, a spirit that pays back the unique power to defy destiny in our way and motivate us to carve our own footprints in this beautiful universe. This is that motivational spirit that opens up numerous hurdles along the way that help us to reach out in the right place at the right time, where that rendezvous with success is just some steps ahead.

While plotting our lives, we indulge ourselves inside the romance of this fight, and take an attempt to prognosticate about our different exposures, what is going to unfold is just a nutshell. We have the Master Key, the key that gains its power from an array of motivational spirits, which empowers ourselves enough to unlock the mysteries, and that is what life demands from us. After all, virtue lies not only in finding the way, but to walk the path successfully.

By the way, I dedicate this to my good friend who herself indulged in "Pain and Numbness". I feel she deserves this little bit to cheer up.
