Farewell 2017 – Welcome 2018!

Ending the year 2016 with a very sad note ! Kidsfreesouls Favorite Super Star and Inspirational Role Model ‘George Michael’ is No More. Some people say, Never Look Back, Just Look Forward’ but I guess Memories keep you alive.

When I was asked to give a name for my Supplement ‘Freesouls’ in Sambhaav Newspapers, I randomly said ‘Soul Free – Make it Free Souls’ inspired by the GM number ‘Soul Free’ from Listen without Prejudice!

2017 Farewell is here and another has passed.  We’ve learnt from past, lived for today and hope for Better Tomorrow.

May the dawn of New Year bring Love and Happiness for you. May 2018 be blessed with Peace and Prosperity.

I believe it’s a faith so strong that keeps one going – saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new…

Here’s a Prayer – I Believe

I believe for every drop of rain that falls, A flower grows…
I believeI believe A candle glows….
I believeI believe For anyone who goes astray,
Someone will come to show the way.I Believe, I believe.
I believe That above the storm, The smallest prayer will still be heard,
I believeI believe That someone in the great somewhere, Hears every word…
I believe Every time I hear a new born baby cry, or touch a leaf or see the sky,Then I know why…..I believe.

Wishing all Readers ‘Happy New Year – Be Happy’ 

Here’s a small note:

Choose Life!

Acquire the secrets of the Magic of Thinking Big’ . The mind is its own place and in itself can make a heaven of hell or a hell of heaven. Thoughts rule the world and amazingly perspective minds echo “There is nothing either good or bad except that thinking makes it so” As quoted in Upanishad ‘You are what your deep, driving desire is.

As your desire is, so is your will. As your will is, so is your deed. As your deed is, so is your destiny.’ It’s the every action that generates a force of energy and when we choose actions that bring happiness and success to others, this creates our destiny. Whatever will be, will be – Acquire the ‘Magic of Thinking Big’ and let the sun shine on you.

Kids Freesouls wishes all readers ‘Farewell 2017 & Welcome 2018′

Keep the faith.

ALSO MORE Resolutions 2018
FOR MARRIED COUPLES!

How often we find couples with their negative attitudes and sentiments lead to disaster arguments and fights, ruining a relationship! There’s something about the start of the New Year that spurs the moments to be ‘Positive’ and go for a definite ‘Positive Change’ – in Attitude, in Lifestyles. Some Simple, Effective Resolutions can bond a relationship together. The Simply Stupid attitude towards a more meaningful and matured relations. Men are from Mars and Women from Venus.

1. Remember, Together makes a ‘Team’ – Be one and be united is the rule of Life for success. Be honest and open hearted. Open to light discussion to opine views but avoid debate and arguments. Silence of one of the partner works positive.

2. Lighten Up – Too serious and it ain’t good for either of the Partner. Lighten up and things turn soft, cozy and cuddly. Small arguments tend to become bigger and resentment lead to frustrations and disaster.

3. Store in Plenty of good and the bad go to dustbin – Memories are built for life time. Plenty of good memories and good days are to be remembered and revived. The bad arguments and fights have to find way out to dustbins.

4. Create atmosphere of goodwill – Love, appreciate, support, care and have strong feelings. Respect. Absence of any can cause a gap somewhere down the line.

5. Simplify Life together – Read together, Listen to Music together. Take walks, have candle lit dinners, Talk before sleep, Watch Television together – one partner has to allow choices and it sure works when doing things together in harmony.

6. Respect. Treating each other with dignity and courtesy. The very essence of good relation is trust and respect. Being sincere to each other and loyal. A lack of Respect often is the sign of ‘Egoism’ and if Respect is missing, the hurt is immense that break the heart even though forgive and forget tactic is applied. Respect and kindness come from within. And, Respect comes from ‘Understanding and Accepting’ each other.

7. Recognize – Know the strengths and weaknesses – Accept and recognize potentials. The point is not to nag around with faults but recognize the human worth in each other and knowing the weaknesses, improve upon for better togetherness and mutual understanding.

Most important is ‘Accept Differences’ It’s not necessary to compromise on everything, where you can both end up feeling you lost out. This win-some, lose-some approach works well for most couples, so long as neither of you becomes too controlling or passive. It’s about taking Pride with self. No one wants to be with someone who’s insecure and unsure of himself/herself. And Accepting Differences will only help ‘Adjustments’ and ‘Knowing Each Other’ – as they are.

And than there is the ego, pride and hurt issues raised from negative thinking of the partners. In most known various situations, there are examples and solutions for effective communication, action role and adjustments when a couple encounters anger, insults, fights, bickering, humiliation or the sort. When a woman offers unsolicited advice, she has no idea of how critical and unloving she may sound to him. Her criticism ways do offend and hurt and these are the times men needs her loving acceptance. When a woman tries to improve a man, he feels she is trying to fix him! He thinks he’s broken. He is humiliated! She thinks she is helping him to grow or showing her territory ways. Women tend to have mood swings, high jinxed sometimes and its when Life really stings! Men rule his power, often unperturbed to the emotions of women, sometimes bad communicators as Author of Men from Mars, Women from Venus, John Gray says, the differences between the two calls for a resolve to misunderstandings arisen which leads to broken hearts in an affair if not practically taken care.

Finally, all couples argue! And this means that couples will know each other better. The reason is, Arguments call for apologizing. This makes swallowing pride ! Second is ‘Talking things out’ which helps restrict arguments in future. Third is, Admitting when each one is wrong and even ‘laugh away’ together to work out positive. Let little things go – it’s all about getting tired which need rejuvenating. Hence, giving gifts, fixing meals, going for candle lit dinners or Just Start Over – forget the arguments and move on. When couples begin to focus on meeting each other’s essential emotional needs they are much more likely to ride the waves and calm things down. Quite Naturally, to live Happy Ever After….

In the year gone by, we’ve all made many choices that we are proud of and some that we wish to forget. While we cannot change the past, we can choose to change the present and thereby change our future. As you ring in the new year, take a few moments to consider these CHOICES and how you will make them in 2017.
