My Personal Thoughts

Those who know me know what I mean to say...

-Ratna Srivastava

Relaxation is a much needed human physical and mental necessity but for some people like me it is nothing more than plain botheration and a waste of time.

-Ratna Srivastava

There is so much to do, to love, to discover, to admire, to enjoy, while I'm on my way to reach my destination! I keep turning my journeys into my destinations and my destinations into my journeys...

Life is not a destination. It is a journey!

-Ratna Srivastava

Money, power, politics and fools don't figure in my world. Call me crazy if you will, this is my secret for positive living.

-Ratna Srivastava

My Work and my leisures are one and same. Inseparable from each other like a couple in love; unable to exist without each other like fire and heat! 

Those who say they leave their work at their work place so they could have some leisure time may never be able to imagine what I'm talking about...

-Ratna Srivastava

I love to work hard. It makes it easier for me to succeed and harder for my eenlies to win. 

And then there are some wonder what the hell I'm doing.

-Ratna Srivastava

I have fire in me. I burn with passions. If you love me you burn with me. If I love you I burn you.

-Ratna Srivastava

It is war between them and me. They have chosen their weapons. Their weapons are deceit, wicked intentions, insult, back biting, scheming. My weapons are my honesty, my right path, my belief in myself. They attack. I don't care. I don't care if I win or lose. 

My fight is not about winning or losing. My fight is not even about myself. It is about fighting for what I believe in. Whether I win or lose, either ways, I will have the satisfaction of being right.

-Ratna Srivastava

The wise know their limits whereas fools know only limits.

-Ratna Srivastava

Who says to see the paradise you have to die? Everytime I wrap myself in my cuddly blanket, sip my coffee and read a book I am already in paradise!

Paradise is not a place. It is a feeling!

-Ratna Srivastava

I keep seeking, I keep finding. I keep admiring in wonder. I keep stumbling on magic and miracles. If one knows how to love there's no lover more gorgeous than life.

-Ratna Srivastava

Killing me is so painfully easy: Just keep me from the things I love and I die.

-Ratna Srivastava 

Of all the flowers that I see love those ones the most that grow at unlikely places. To me they spell life hope and incredible fortitude. Quite like us humans. We are just like these flowers breaking through rocks, stone and steel, to proclaim: hello world. We may be small and delicate. So what? That cannot stop us from existing in our glory.

-Ratna Srivastava

I don't need wings to fly. I have my thoughts. They are enough. My thoughts are my wings.

-Ratna Srivastava

My passions are more intoxicating than any wine could be. Can you imagine? I am always in a state of high..!

-Ratna Srivastava

The path that leads to success is more important than success itself. It doesn't matter if you are successful or not. If you have been right, done your best and enjoyed doing it, then you are successful already! Success is not the goal - the way you try to walk up to it, is. And your life path is no race, no competition, no war, no victory. Just learning, experiencing, discovering and getting lost in its wealth!

-Ratna Srivastava

It is war between them and me. They have chosen their weapons. Their weapons are deceit, wicked intentions, insult, back biting, scheming. My weapons are my honesty, my right path, my belief in myself. They attack. I don't care. I don't care if I win or lose. My fight is not about winning or losing. My fight is not even about myself. It is about fighting for what I believe in. Whether I win or lose, either ways, I will have the satisfaction of being right.

-Ratna Srivastava

Whoever tries to tell you secrets to success and happiness is just doing business. Whoever tries to learn secrets to success and happiness is being plain lazy. 

The secrets to success and happiness can neither be taught nor learnt. They are within you and you just have to figure them out yourself through trials and errors.

-Ratna Srivastava

Don't fall in love. Rise! Don't get lost in love. Find yourself! Don't give your heart away. Keep it with you. You need it to love all the good things in life including love, your life and yourself.

There's a great deal more to love than  just falling in it.

-Ratna Srivastava

Nobody is born strong. You have to overcome your weaknesses and fears and this makes you strong bit by bit, part by part. The end result is worth every bruise, every tear, every scar you face. 

Your troubles are the price for your strength, your fears the price for your courage.

-Ratna Srivastava

Love turns people in angel or devils, saints or sinners, wise or fools, winners or losers. In no case will it let you stay unchanged.

 If you haven't changed you haven't loved. If you haven't loved you haven't lived either.

-Ratna Srivastava

Fools only see words and people, never the point. Trying to win them is therefore pointless. When battling with them, do nothing. Just sit back and watch in silence. 

They will never win you anyways. Neither chickens soar with eagles, not eagles bother about chickens.

-Ratna Srivastava

If you don't have enemies how do you know what you are capable of?

-Ratna Srivastava

Your attitude determines how big your problem is or how small...!

-Ratna Srivastava

Time is very precious. but sometimes wasting it is an even bigger luxury!

-Ratna Srivastava

I am mind rover.

I believe in the power of the mind. I believe in the strength of thoughts. I believe in the magic of positivity. I believe in the miracles of love. I rove in the jungles of thoughts. I rove in the realm of mind. I am ... mind rover!
