The magical mountain mist.

The mountains with the clouds and the mist is always magical. It has a magical effect on our minds, drawing us to the core of it. with minute droplets of water dropping from the clouds, it brings a sense of calm and peace to the soul. The beauty of the mountains covered with clouds, on a misty morning, can captivate your heart and soul to a sense of oblivion. The beauty around you gives you a positive vibe to forget everything and become one with the nature around you...the sound of the wind softly blowing on your face and the touch of the mist around you makes you happy. And feeling the tiny droplets fall on you and around you. It is hard to define your feelings in such a surrounding. It is pure ecstasy to appreciate and admire the beauty of nature and be lost in it. Nature can bring a lot of beauty into our lives, if you know how to appreciate it. My yearning for a life in the misty mountains keeps me going.
I keep thinking of my experience of a misty, cloud covered day at Mhaismal - Aurangabad. It is an experience that I will never forget. The day i viewed the mystic beauty of nature around , standing at the topmost view point of that place. I felt as if I was in wonderland, with the excitement of a small child wondering at the beauty of that place...It was monsoon season and suddenly the full area was covered with mist and clouds. And that added to the beauty of that place and my joy. As we were viewing the water falling down the hills at the other side, the clouds burst and raindrops started falling down. Left to me I would have stayed there and got drenched in that rain, but we ran through the rain into the house. A wonderful experience that, will never ever fade away from my memory.

A reckless tongue can pierce and kill the soul.

"Words are the only weightless thing in this world that could actually make you feel heavy."

The reckless, rash, stabbing, piercing, words uttered  has the capacity to kill the soul, making your heart and mind heavy, leaving indelible imprints that become difficult to erase. Sometimes words uttered just slice you and you feel like something dies inside of you. Tongues can make or break life, they can make marriages sweet and families strong. They can also give hope and cement understanding. It is in anger that the most acidic words pour out.  It is seldom thought what the result of those statements would be. The tongue is the only thing that cannot be tamed. 

Many of us may have at some point of our life, let out words and emotions in anger. Thinking we are giving out truest of opinions or feelings of how we feel about a situation in which we might have been involved, without thinking of the consequences of those words on the person we are hitting out at. We seldom think of what would have been the sentiment behind an action. Instead of letting our thoughts and words run wild,we rarely make an effort to think before we speak. For some it is very difficult to hold their tongue and not say what is in their minds. We should know when to try and reason out with a person, know what to say in order to avoid a problem, instead of saying what ever come to the mind. Think before speaking out.

As they say" We should learn to choose our words carefully, as we can hurt, and create a wound in others. Words...can't be taken back, once you give them away. Harsh words are like bullets: no matter what, they can still leave a painful injury. And sometimes, a sorry is not enough to heal the wounds you leave." Words sometimes cause a lot of problems, knowingly and unknowingly. It can cause a lot of stress and strain on the one it is aimed at. Think before you utter rude and harsh words. Sometimes for a person fighting life's battle, those words are enough to slice them down and make a permanent wound, like an ulcer that never heals. Don't judge anyone without knowing what a person is going through. It has the power to heal and inspire or break a person completely.
