A kind and compassionate heart


The human machine is moody at times. Sometimes all the worldly pleasures become insufficient to delight its saddened state while the other times, even the smallest of things become a reason for outburst of cheering. I remember a quote written at the back of a greeting I received from my friend while in school. The reason I still remember the quote might be due to the fact that a beautiful girl (friend) had given me at an age when the heart would bounce like anything even being a distance away from an opposite sex, not to imagine the effect of the closeness. It read-'A kind heart is a fountain of gladness making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles'. It is this kind heart that determines our state of mood and also other's perception towards ourselves. I reckon myself as having a kind heart but haven't really been able to make everything freshen into smiles.

Sometimes I get upset for no any apparent reason. This might have been due to the empty state of mind occupied by devil's workshop. I would really be glad if I could unearth all my weaknesses and re-plant novel thoughts. One of the teachers had revealed me the secret behind musk deer which would wonder around in despair trying to find the scent that comes from his own body. We all have genuineness within us, the power to confront any challenges and to anticipate the outcome of our good deeds. But we wonder like the musk deer in search of peace of mind. These theories are always easier to put light on but the practices are understandably difficult.
