Two fundamentals of cool life - "Walk, like you are the king" Or "Walk like you don't care who is the king" That's attitude.... A Small But Very Meaningful Thought.. “Nothing Is Interesting In Life.. If You Are Not Interested.!! Self-respect depends on knowing who I am, knowing my eternal (ageless), spiritual self. When I have found that sense of spiritual identity, I feel I have a right to be here, to exist. Without the spiritual dimension, it is very difficult to really respect myself deeply. In this case, I base my respect on identifying with the superficial (artificial) aspects of my being: looks, gender, success, my life partner, my intelligence. With such artificial identification, I will never have a stable sense of self-respect, because people's opinions change. Today they love me, tomorrow they reject me. What is the result of depending on their opinions? I will end up fluctuating all the time - feeling positive when they say good things, and feeling down when they say negative things. To stay stable in my self-respect, I need to have a deeper understanding of my spiritual identity (the foundation of this being that I am a soul) and tap into those riches that are within me forever, waiting to blossom, like the flower from the seed. As I become spiritually aware, those riches and resources start flowing out of me. The more stable I am in my self-respect and spirituality, the more I radiate what I truly am. I feel a deep sense of contentment and I am happy to be me, however I am. I accept myself as I am. ये किताबों के किस्से , ये फसानो की बातें , निगाहों की झिलमिल जुदाई की रातें| महब्बत की कसमें , निभाने के वादे , ये धोखा वफ़ा का , ये झूठे इरादे | ये बातें किताबी ,ये नज्में पुरानी , ना इन्की हकीक़त, ना इनकी कहानी| न लिखना इन्हें , ना महफूज़ करना , ये जज्बे हैं बस, इनको महसूस करना
