'Collage' belongs to the category "... to be chewed" with VIBGYOR coverage.
Today's issue presents an obituary reference not just as an information but comprehensive unedited sketch of the deceased nicely narrated by PPR Sir.
Your adopting complete information of the author which could have been simply edited as just an intimation from the editor proves your bee-like attitude sucking the best for universal benefits.
Kudos to you.

Analysis can lead to Paralysis : Vathsala Jayaraman Chennai
Fifty years back there
was a scene in a Tamil movie in which the
brother of the bride imagines that his sister's saree catches fire in the pooja lamp on her wedding day resulting in her death immediately. I had an impression that an exception had been generalised in the film.

Collage Motivation : Facing Challenges

NEVER LET YOUR SPIRIT BE QUENCHED.
I got a rude awakening just the other day after struggling for 4 years since I lost my job. I kept hearing a voice behind me saying “The old paradigm must be destroyed.” I fell to my knees from exhaustion and at that moment I understood that life has its way of dealing curved balls almost immediately one after the other. Even though I did not have a steady income and had no life savings accumulated over the years I was living with a grateful heart from day to day."

Dongle
This sounds like it could be a brand that sells fancy new dog toys, but this is definitely not something you should put on the shopping list for your new puppy. Before you take a trip to PetSmart, find out what a dongle actually is. It's a piece of hardware that connects a computer to another device. You may use a dongle on a regular basis to connect to a digital media player to stream shows or to use Bluetooth and WiFi.

“Life has a way of testing a person’s will, either by having nothing happen at all or by having everything happen at once.” ~ Paulo Coelho
The one thing I was sure of and that was God has a plan for each and every one of our lives and He doesn’t want anything or anyone to interfere with it. Surely God would not have created such a being as YOU, with an ability to grasp the infinite, to exist only for a day! No, no, YOU were made for GREATNESS. YOU were made to be IMMORTAL.
You will hear this voice even as it is speaking to you now; “THE STRUGGLE IS OVER!”
You will realize the old way of doing things by watching and waiting will not work in this season. Your hope and belief in yourself and your abilities have been there for you through some of the darkest times of your life. When you make up your mind that you deserve more, MORE WILL SHOW UP!
It is time for you to dismantle all errant thoughts that rise up against the will, purpose, and plan for your life. When you know that there is an attack on your finances, your family members, and your relationships, your goal is to keep the voice of the enemy from hitting the mark.
Don’t allow the mountains that you are facing now to keep you in stuck mode. You have been cleared of any danger the enemy is plotting. Every time the rubber meets the road, your instinct, your inner being, your true nature, and purpose shows up to point you in the right direction.
To tell you the truth, you could have thrown in the towel a long time ago. But hear this! “You are walking out of the dungeon with total victory in your hands.”
Do not allow the little foxes to hypnotize you into a deep sleep of nothingness. You know and I know, no one never told us that the road was going to be easy. In fact, your will to survive is already opening up doors for you that you cannot even imagine.
It is time to clear your mind of every distraction that can slow down the process of attaining the freedom you’ve been seeking for. It’s your freedom (your life) that is on the line. Of course, it’s crucial to define what we mean by freedom so that we know what we’re looking for, what we’re hoping to attain. Does it mean that we have to distinguish between what it means for us to be free from something and to be free to do or be something?
Freedom from and freedom to are two sides of the freedom coin. You want to be prepared as best you can.
You are only as successful as your last act of obedience. It’s a choice only you can make. The process has started and nothing can stop you from having or receiving the freedom you desire. The old paradigm must be destroyed. You know what I’m talking about, it must be destroyed.
The choice you make will give the strength to resist the notion that struggle is a way of life. You will start moving into a new level of mastery that will eliminate the spirit of procrastination. I need you to quickly come into agreement that the struggle is over. Take control of your day and you will be able to recover all that was lost and you will be well on your way! This word that I have in my belly for you is going to be a breath of fresh air! Take it!
A happy and meaningful life requires our continuous input and creativity. It does not happen by chance. It happens because of our choices and actions. And each day we are given new opportunities to choose and act and, in doing so, we create our own unique journey. Keep going…
2) Continued from C
But today, I feel that many people are over anxious about everything deeming it to be a sign of great responsibility. They are lost so much in their negative thoughts that victory never touches even their imagination, and happiness is too far. They worry that they have nothing to worry about.
Such unnecessary thoughts are resting inside the brain as rent free tenants with pricking as their prime duty.
Some people become too much upset on learning about devastating predictions made by the astrologers. I know a lady who became totally depressed when she was informed that her son would meet his end at the age of seven.
When the child had to be accidentally admitted to the hospital for some minor ailment, the mother's health took a
critical turn. Nothing could save her other than a blatant lie from the psychiatrist that her son had passed away, as predetermined by destiny.
The truth was revealed after a few days after she became normal, much to her surprise.
It appears that an end with torror is more satisfying than a terror
with an unknown end.
Some people start worrying well in advance.They think only about
assured failure even before appearing for the examination,worry
about the consequences of divorce before getting married.
Some women fear about horrors of labour,termination of pregnancies,
premature deliveries-all negative aspects before planning for the
progeny.
For people who are trapped in such thoughts,deadly diseases and
cremation ghats are too proximate to their hearts.
I am reminded of a Chinese proverb-“That the birds of worry and care
fly over your head,you cannot change.But that they build nests in
your hair ,you can prevent”.
This too much brooding over is more common among the educated
intellectuals of the middle/upper class of the society.People get more
attached to their burdens sometimes more than the burdens getting
attached to them.
They have the special aptitude for making simple things more
complex and converting the easy normal events into complex
painful episodes. They seem to be particular in snatching the defeat
wantonly from the clutches of success.
They don't require any outsider to spoil their goals.They are specialists in the art of self destruction. They gather bundles of sticks to build a bridge they never have to cross.
Do these people find it satiating to anticipate trouble and want to
experience all the sorrows of life which they may never come across?
Is there any secret pleasure about it?
It is a matter of concern that many doctors including those practising psychiatry, and teachers who are well reputed too are victims of this malady. However they justify that their pessimism enables them to face disappointments. Strange indeed!
Simple minded uneducated people are very practical. They don't think; but face the challenges and come out unhurt. Ignorance is bliss.
Intellectuals try to over analyse everything, become victims of unwanted fears and fierce imaginations, thanks to the wonderful support received from the internet that adds fuel to the fire (fear)..Everything gets stalled and paralysed.
ANALYSIS turned into PARALYSIS.
