Golden Sunrise...my journey so far !

My favourite time of the year is when it snows. Pick up a handful of snow. Shape it into a ball. Throw it towards Papa. He will catch it. Baam !! Throw it towards Mummy. She will miss the shot. For sure. Thapak !!  You can roll on it. You can glide. You can feel the cottony soft flakes. Squeeze it. Punch it. You can play with it like a play dough. Raise it into a snow man. You can then hide behind it. Call out Papa. Call out Mummy. Play Peekaboo. 

Dear Michael,  You are a gift to the Universe ! It is you who inspired me to believe in my dreams. To you I can share all that is in my mind.  You listen and don't just hear. You inspire and don't instruct. You lead us by example.  You love dogs, you love Nature, you love all. For all these and much more, I love you.  I love you like no other. Happy birthday, my friend! 🍹🎂🐥🦢🐞🐝🦋🌼🌺🌷🍀

Our mind is a funny part of our body. It can trick how we see. It can trick how we think and feel.  Let us look at the photo above. (Taken from internet). It looks like it is a dead end. Or end of the road. But it is just an optical illusion. What our eyes see is not always true. Actually, there is a curve on that road.  Same way, when we feel that this world is going to end we must know that there is a curve. There is a way ahead. There is still hope. For a better future. Love,  Ayan.

I saw two little boys. They were begging. Their mummy held a big bowl. People dropped some coins into that bowl. The bigger boy played with a toy truck. The little boy licked a dirty spoon. Their clothes were torn. They were all sweating. But that did not bother them. They were happy. I carried some dates, cherries, plum and mangoes. Their eyes glittered. Like stars. They smiled. Like the morning Sun. That night I did not complain about my homework. Reading felt that gliding on snow. Writing felt like making sand castles on the beach.  That night at dinner the bitter gourd tasted sweet. Lemon was no longer sour.  That night my bed felt softer. My pillow cozier. And the house ! The sweetest home ever.

I have a dream. To see this earth clean and green.  Today and forevermore. Just these two dreams. I dream anew. Wait ! Not green with envy. 😊 Green with trees.  Clean with fresh air.  Full of love.  Full of joy.  Dreams come true ! I believe it ! Do you?

Wish you all a happy happy World Environment Day!  🌍🖼🌱🌳🍀🦄🐿🦚🦢🐧🕊🐢🐡🐝🦋🐛🌻🌼🌷🍃 I spent the morning planting saplings. Then rest of the day painting that. Hope you like it. 🧒💚 Love, Ayan.

We are not humans. If we do not have kindness in us.  We are not humans. If we cannot love our fellow beings. If we hurt animals, birds or any little being, we are not humans. In Kerala an elephant ate a food item. Little did it know that it was loaded with crackers. The crackers exploded inside the elephant's mouth. The poor animal died in extreme pain. It had a baby elephant in its tummy.  How can we be so irresponsible? To leave crackers laden goodies in the open? It could  harm any living being. Or are we really so cruel to feed it on purpose? Where has our kindness gone?  I pray for a drop of kindness.  A drop in you.  A drop in me.  Drop by drop let it fill us. Drop by drop let it heal us. I pray for an ocean of kindness. Kindness in you. Kindness in me. Love, Ayan.   Photo : The elephant that kissed me. I named it 'Elee'. Photo : The elephant I painted in memory of 'Elee'.

This Earth is my home.  This Universe is my home.  Your heart is my home. If I ever build a house, it will have a big lawn for pets to roam. It will have a garden of flowers, butterflies and bees. It will have all kinds of fruit trees for us and all the animals. It will have shrubs, climbers, bushes, herbs and all kinds of vegetables.  It will have a playground where I can fly my kites, ride my bicycle, play football and badminton. It will have a large pond where fishes and we will swim. And on its bank I will put my canvas stand. I will paint the most beautiful painting. If I build a house, it will have a large empty room. Painted all white and green plants all around. I will meditate with my parents. I will pray with them. Do Yoga, read my books and write my stories there. This house will have a room for me, one for Ma Papa, one for Koka Ennai, one for Aryan, his Papa Mom, one for Mainu Mama, one for Dodai Aaita and a big one for all I love. All are welcome!  We wi...
