Words of Thoughts

by Jayalakshmi, Amalfi



Thoughts and thoughts and thoughts, Words, words, and words.



So many of them keep jumping around in my head. They have no place to settle down. They want to jump and come out. So I try to catch them and fling them on to the paper, so that I can rest in peace as my head starts clearing up to make space for yet another set of Words and Thoughts.





Let me try to assemble these jumbled thoughts and words to make them interesting and readable!






My First Attempt.

Let me think what I should tell my eagerly awaiting audience.

A story! -or A Tip A Day- or some Quirky Topic.......

 

THE LEFT AND RIGHT PART OF OUR MIND.

 


I heard from somewhere that the

RIGHT Side of the Brain is a 'Dreamer' and the LEFT Side is a

'Logical Thinker '.

 

 

I was wondering if it is possible that half our brain tells us something and the other half pulls us down. But my own experiment and experience made me draw the same conclusion.

When my alarm went off in the morning and I was sleeping on the Right side, my hand would switch it off. My Mind would say 'let me sleep for some time. I will surely get up in a few minutes’; but soon I would drift off to sleep to finish my dream.

Again, if I am sleeping on my LEFT side and hear the alarm my Mind would also become alert and say, ‘Time to get up 'and I would get out of the bed. I tried this experiment several times and arrived at the same conclusion.!


Thinking logically brings about Results; but Dreaming only Procrastinates our work.



Let's dream Big on the RIGHT Side and work out the Dream practically from the LEFT Side. Both are necessary for us to reach our maximum potentiality. Try it out and let me know your endeavours.






Shall post some more weird topics when my Mind permits.

Banking to Brushstrokes

Image
  by Rama Sriram, Amalfi It’s not easy to leave behind a stable career, especially one that you have invested in for years and your family has proudly proclaimed as a great feat. Although growing up, I lived in the most humble of homes and studied in the simplest of schools, my aspirations were a cut-above. I wanted to make it big in banking, and tirelessly studied atop hot balconies and shadowy corners of my home to eventually make it a reality. I soon got married to someone who shared my passion for success (Hi Sriram, hope you’re reading this :)) and we found ourselves frequently relocating to different cities. Apart from the plethora of cultural experiences I was fortunate enough to taste, I could no longer ignore the mounting familial responsibilities, especially with two kids at home. Shortly after, I decided to leave the very job I worked all my life for - it was tough to part with something that afforded me the financial security and independence that I craved, but I battle...

Free flow of thoughts ✨ : The Legacy we leave behind

Image
Sabita Menon, Pinewood Do we want to leave a legacy? This thought-provoking question could spark new insights into our own lives and experiences. Do I wish to leave a legacy behind? YES, I DO! It’s not what I leave for my family, friends, and others. It is what I leave IN them while I’m still here to participate and live through the experience. I sense time fleeting and seem more focused on the present by paying attention to the impact of my words, actions, emotions, and outlook on life. It's become more meaningful to connect with something bigger than myself. My family, friends, and society have long influenced my beliefs, values, and behaviour, laying the groundwork for my legacy. However, as my emotional maturity grows with age, I can see the consequences of a decision far into the future. I remind myself of the possibilities that exist both within and beyond what has been given to me, and what I can create and pass on. A life of fame, accomplishments, and failures d...

Free flow of thoughts ✨: The Beauty of Co-Existence 🌼

Image
Madumitha Selvaraj, Bridgewood# Human beings have been sharing space since time immemorial. The concept of co-existence is a part of our lives and has multiple aspects and challenges to it. In a gated community like ours, I often wonder how we practice co-existence in a way that does not lead to friction or misunderstandings with others around us. There is an interesting idea in psychology called “Both/and Thinking”. It talks about how two seemingly contradictory thoughts can co-exist. Many times, we follow a rigid way of thinking when it comes to expressing our ideas or emotions. We go by the “either-or”, ”Black or white” or “all or nothing” formula. This means that between two ideas or points of view, one cannot exist while the other does. It’s a surprise that our minds sometimes look at every scenario dichotomously. We forget or realise too late, that, seemingly opposing ideas can and do co-exist.  For example, we feel conflicted about taking up a challenging project...
