    Mahesh wrote a new post, What Jealousy Can Do to your Life 7 years, 7 months ago

    I think biggest problem with your life is the jealousy. And you can’t get much from the life if you remain jealous all the time. You can see that many people are spending their life working harder to achieve the […]

    • Jealousy can consume a person. When one is jealous of another person, it shows that the other person is better thus it makes the jealous person, feel depressed.

      Because she is jealous, she could concoct lies to discredit the person she’s jealous of.

      For lovers, jealousy can be fatal. There are cases that because of unfounded jealousy the other partner was killed by the jealous lover.

      Though, for lovers a little jealousy is nice. It makes them closer once the jealousy is addressed. 🙂

    • Jealousy is a bad thing. people who tend to be jealous of others do not go far in life because they use up all their energy thinking of how good someone else’s life is. I doubt if I can envy someone, I will only aspire to be like that person. Jealousy pulls you back, live and let live. It shall be well with you at your own appointed time. All fingers are not equal.

    • Jealousy is definitely a negative state of mind. The anxiety will take place if there are still some chances for getting the things that others have got but you do not. Here, one will put forth one’s best efforts to achieve them. This is the best aspect. This can also be viewed as positive thinking.

      The element of comparison always lies in jealousy. We know pretty well of not getting the things in spite of our best efforts. Still, we want them. We feel the jealousy of others possessing those things which are totally meaning. In this case, it definitely causes depression which ultimately leads to self-destruction.

    • Jealousy is like an instinct.This feeling is inherent in man. It is part of human existence and no one can hide it from him or her for it is part of life. Jealousy is an emotion but controllable for we have the brain to analyze and there are no valid reasons to get wrong because of jealousy. Jealousy if not controlled is like love that kills, yes jealousy kills.

    April is the birth month of my mother, and I missed her so much. She was gone, six years ago!

    My mother was a very ideal woman, very loving and very industrious. She had raised us so well, though we were poor […]

    • Same here! April 20 is my mom’s birthday. And just like you, my parents have been a good role model to us their siblings.

      Thanks for the article.

      • Thanks Ruby. We children just wanted to show gratitude for the values they had inculcated in us. And we writers/bloggers are fortunate enough to tell the world how great our respective parents were.

        Are your parents still alive? You are fortunate enough to have them around.

    • My parents have been a good role model to us.

    • Feel how much your mother and father have inspired and inculcated so many good deeds in you. I find that generally people who are in difficulty and struggling to run their lives and those of their children are the ones who children are able to imbibe such habits. Your remembering your mother shows how much she cared for the whole family too. She had a natural talent for crafts and arts which seems to have come to you to and certain impressions of childhood seem to be well etched in your mind.

      The best tribute for your mother seems to be people remembering her with a smile. Nowadays it is better if one has not friends but never has any one complaining or speaking ill of them. That is a great achievement which your mother seems to have achieved with the kind of life she lived and the dedication with which she has served the family and made it into a fit unit. Thanks for the share.

      • Thank you Krishna Kumar for your comments. I found this article as a way of giving tribute to my parents, particularly to my mother who did all her best during her lifetime to make our family well, and to impart to us her good traits. She did not show taught us in words, or through lip service alone, but through her deeds.
        I could not forget her sacrifices when we were still young; and yes, I love her way of making crafts like embroidery. I wish parents today would also be good models for their children, so they can raise good people in the community.

    • You got a very hardworking and I should say a dignified mother.

      She served all of you so well, even waking up early to cook and prepare for all of you before going to school.

      I think you have inherited the love for crafts such as crocheting of your mother. Really, she embroidered the pillow cases? Yes, you can cut the embroidered portion and have them framed as a remembrance from her.

      Lucky for us for having mothers who are caring and loving.

      • Thanks Dina. I always think that our mothers really considered their children as gems; their wealth. It is sad to compare them with some mothers today, who never instill discipline among their children. Maybe I really inherited her love for crafting. I enjoyed it so much, though sometimes my husband says, I better buy one instead of using so much time and effort doing those things.

    • You had a wonderful mother and she will always be in your memory. My mom is the best woman I ever knew, but maybe so can say every child about his mom. Fortunately she is still alive, but I have lost my dad six years ago.

      • Thanks Fortune. You are really fortunate to still have your mother arund. You can always have someone to lean on, to talk with when you are down or when you are happy. I envy people who still have their mothers with them!

    • My mother died when I was 6 years old, I never had remembered how she cuddled me, that is why I wrote her a blog about a must to love our mother. Lucky are those whose mother are still alive.Without them would never experience the joys and pains of life. I always miss my mother and father.

      • Oh, it’s so sad to know about this. It is so different when mother is around; though your father is there, I don’t know, mothers have that different way of expressing love to their children. Anyway, maybe your father, your aunts or relatives can tell you so much about your mother when she was still around.

    Do you always dream of the same incident over and over? I do not know the meaning of dreams, but last night it happened again.

    • no recurrent dreams an it is kind of scary to have recurrent dream as if you are oing to have it in real, i have friends who really got a dream many times in her life that she is obsessd with it now nad fair it will hapen to hear one day, it is really hard to know if its sign or just dream with no meaning

      • I am just curious why it keeps coming back in my dreams; that situation where I always lose my bag. And I wake up always afraid and puzzled.

    • I do not say that it is bad or good of dreams. But, dreams carry some meaning and this much I know. There are people who give more attention to a dream and waste their time thinking about it. This is a scientific world. We will be coming across many situations and sometimes our brain waves catch the frequencies of waves having similar value and characteristics. The will result in dreams. Some psychologists say that they act as premonitions.

      • Thank you for your reply sivasubrahmanyam. Maybe it was because I am thinking of so many things; or maybe out of fear of losing something. I don’t know. I am referring to my “lost bag dream.”

    • I don’t know what the dreams mean but I’m getting tired of those dreams where I get lost in a familiar place and should know my around but I can never seem to get to my final destination. It’s very frustrating! When I wake up from these kinds of dreams, I am so annoyed! On the plus side though, it’s just a dream! 🙂

    • Dreams can sometimes be just the opposite of what we are , as what you said about your dream of your bag being stolen by a thief when in real life you are a very systemic person.

      A type of dream that keep recurring for me is that I am always late for occasions. I would always dream that I am just taking a bath , yet the party at a friend’s house has already began hours ago.

      That’s always the type of dream I have , late for occasions or any event.

      Though, I am not late on any occasions , but sometimes even early.

      Well, dreams are dreams. They don’t have meanings as I have read. It’s us , the dreamers who puts meanings to our dream.

      Though, when it recurrent, one can’t help putting some meaning to them or wondering what its message is.

    • I would love to be able to say that nobody really cares. I have no doubt that most, if not all of US would just like to get on with the business of making America better (cause it’s already great!).

      But the fact is, while campaigning ~ Trump, the POTUS candidate, created the “Trump-Putin question marks” by putting his own foot in his own mouth. His own words followed him into the White House.

      The questions about Russian interference should be answered and not hovering over his administration like a huge gray cloud. A GIANT BLUR!! I’m sorry but it’s just not how to run one of the greatest free nations on the planet. The USA should have clear blue skies and beautiful rainbows; and not dark clouds, ominous shadows, and a “questionable atmosphere”.

      Is it too much to ask of any elected U.S. official to MAKE PLAIN to the citizens of this country, who our true allies are and who our real enemies are that threaten US or … who meddle in our affairs? I don’t think it’s an unreasonable request.

    • The question that I ask; how stupid are people? If someone said that our Prime Minister was an X or influenced by Y, or if all kind of articles appeared in fake news sites about him, we’d snort it away. That is because we think for ourselves.

      Stories were made up about Hilary and people believed them
