You need to free your mind to understand what others are trying to convey

The world we see is a perception of what we think the world is. Same goes with what people say and what we take the meaning as. Our life is always a hit and miss of what we perceive a person wished to convey through their words or actions. At times we are so sure about our perception and go forward with that until we … Continue reading You need to free your mind to understand what others are trying to convey

Be attentive and we will see life paint its complete color.

Shed the weights that makes your mind heavy

Our minds and thoughts are in constant motion even when we are still.
