Sun Signs And Me

My husband doesn’t like to read about sun signs, but recently I forced him to sit with me and to listen what I was going to read. In my hand was the well known book Sun signs by Linda Goodman, I cleared my throat and started to read about Gemini Man, yes even my husband is a Geminian like me.

Slowly my husband started relating himself with the characters which was mentioned in the book and also gave me few short explanations about them, I was thrilled to know my husband more, after a while I started to read other sun signs as well and strange enough my husband related himself to the characters in those also, I was puzzled wondering how can a person have all the characters mentioned in the twelve sun signs. After reading I started analyzing if I really had all the characters mentioned in the book.
It striked me that I don’t have to read so much about sun sign compatibility, when in real life scenario that’s not the only thing required in life, because relationships and true love and affection override all these, and the best example is that of a mother and her child, I had always read that cancer and Gemini are opposite signs but my mother is a cancerian and I am deeply influenced by her, so later I changed my mind thinking may be sun sign compatibility is required for husband and wife, but again I was wrong, because I have seen husband and wife with great sun sign compatibility who have never led a good life.
I have not stopped reading sun signs, even now I do that but I check for the negative qualities mentioned and try to change them in myself and improve the good points, reading sun signs still remains one of my favorite but I don’t bother much about compatibility, I am not against anyone who follow sun sign compatibility nor am I against anyone who follow sun signs seriously, well if life was really so simple that just a compatibility in sun signs would have given a peaceful and happy life, guess we would have seen only happy couples in the world without any divorces, if if if compatibility was the key to a happy and everlasting relationship.

Pre Occupied Mind

Before watching a horror movie I tell my mind that I have to get scared and get carried away by everything that movie has to offer me, with this thought I sit and watch, well even a simplest sound in the movie makes me jump off my seat and makes me think what follows next….
One fine day I was sitting with my husband and watching a horror movie ‘The Shining’, the movie did not have any devilish appearances in it, but it was the excellent camera work and background score which was the highlight and made me widen my eyes. Jack Nicholson’s acting was exceptional.

I am very inclined to watch horror movies these days, of course not to get scared but to see what is the horror element in the movie and how has the director narrated the same to his audience. Horror is within the mind and not in the movie, because mind is so pre occupied, I go a step forward and read the reviews regarding the horror movie which I am going to watch and prepare myself mentally….
My husband advised me one day to watch a horror movie casually like I did not know it was a horror movie and he also told me not to read any reviews about the movie, I followed the same and the same evening we watched ‘Exorcist’ which is supposed to be one of the scary movies of its time, to my surprise I was not scared seeing the movie, in fact I was enjoyed the movie and did not close my eyes in between, which I normally do while am watching a horror movie…………..

Yes watching a horror movie and still not getting scared is within our mind, and to control our mind is within our thoughts….. Now whenever I watch a horror movie I know it’s yet another movie, which is in front of my eyes for 90minutes but not in my thoughts forever to scare me…………….

My Inspiration

From childhood I had never got inspired by anything or anyone, nor did I have any role model also, I always felt that getting inspired by someone means I am copying them and by getting inspired means I am losing my originality, this opinion faded away when I met my husband.
When I first met my husband I felt there was something extra ordinary about this person, he is a self made person who is today moderately successful because of his hard work, continuous effort and god’s grace. My husband has learnt many lessons in life in a tough way and has got things which are close to his heart only after going through immense struggles… Important lesson which I learnt my darling hubby was not to regret about the past because past cannot be changed so live for the moment and prepare for the future only financially because the rest is unknown, Slowly and steadily I was getting inspired by my husband.
Well I am not introducing my husband’s qualities nor am i boasting that he is Mr. perfect, but there is lot of wonderful qualities within him that inspires me, everyday is a learning curve for me and I notice something new about my hubby, last night he surprised me by coming home early and just held my hand and told ‘I came early to spend time with you and will you date me this weekend’, now I was taken by a pleasant surprise, to go on a dating with my husband, wow that was splendid and was overwhelmed by it and readily agreed with a smile on my face. So yes, this weekend I am dating my darling husband, This made me realize that giving pleasant surprises often in a relationship is very essential.
When I casually told my cousin about my husband’s simplicity and his good nature she was not ready to accept, instead she interrupted and told, well that is the way a husband is supposed to be, so I asked her if that was the way husbands are supposed to be does her husband do all these things, for which she was silent, most of us are like this we don’t want to accept that others are good and when a person is nice to us we feel it’s their duty or responsibility to be nice to us, Ahh! Though it’s a weird feel most of us do feel this way, am I not right!!It is really a wonderful feeling to get inspired from someone close to my heart and learning things from him and letting him know the same without any ego. I am completely inspired by my husband and will always notice and absorb good things in him and try to implement.
Getting inspired is a nice thing and learning good things is also wonderful, I am inspired and hope someday down the lane, someone will get inspired by me, haha just kidding
