Celebrating Everyone's Festivals

Growing up in India, I celebrated a lot of festivals  Pongal , Ugadi , Holi ,  Dussera , Diwali.  and many others  During these festivals special dishes were made, we wore new clothes.  We looked forward to other festivals. Friends who celebrated other festivals like Ramzan shared their food and sweets. We look forward to eating the flavorful   Biriyani  or Hyderabadi Haleem   Also exciting was when  friends who celebrated Christmas, shared with us cakes and Plum pudding. Today, living in the US, love the period at the end of the year where people of all faiths and religions celebrate the holidays as Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and of course as a general term "Holidays". We have a nice Christmas "holiday" tree, the kids enjoy looking forward to Santa's visit and open their presents on Christmas Day. You have to share festivals and appreciate every opportunity to celebrate. What ever you are celebrating this season, Happy Hol...

How the World Measures Happiness (It’s Not Just About Smiling)

While my own philosophy has always been that happiness shouldn't depend on others, the data suggests that for most of the world, happiness is inherently social. Here is what the top-ranking countries teach us: 🇫🇮 Finland: Material Security Finland takes the top spot, but not because they are outwardly the "happiest" people. It's about anxiety reduction.

Changing Dreams and Crossing Off Your Bucket List

There are moments in life when you hear something and your mind subconciously thinks about being in that place. I firmly believe that these subconcious thoughts plays a role in your life and the decisions you make. Make sure you have the time to dream, switch off from everything a couple of times a day to let your dreams free, thrive on imagination and your dreams will come true. Kitty Hawk Sitting cross-legged on the floor listening to a lesson or maybe even a wooden bench in elementary scholl, the memory and description of the first flight from Kitty Hawk is vivid in memory. Years later the visit to Kitty Hawk would connect with that memory and another bucket list item crosssed off. Hey there is a beach and a lot of water close by to add to the vacation.
