Forgive but not Forget

    A common phrase would be ‘forgive and forget’ but not like anything I’m going to share today. At some point in life we go through denial. We even have been treated badly by others. We face incidents that scar us for a life time.     I’m not saying forgiving is easy but it is possible. Forgetting however is next to impossible because it becomes a constant reminder for you. For instance, during high school we were bullied by some notorious gangsters in your school. Over time you just let go that hatred and eventually you forgive but that painful memory does remain in your mind. Most of us as kids were taught by our parents to forgive and let go. But does that really work? Does that leave you without any impact?     I strongly urge that you shouldn’t forget whatever incident you go through. I say this is because they become a lesson for you. They prevent you from being a victim again. The next time you face any similar situation, you ...

Whites that we need to avoid in our life!

Eating is the main and the most favorite activity for everyone. People can non-stop munching foods and they are willing to travel states just to eat yummy foods, and I am one of them! But do you know that not all the food is good for us? It may taste good but unknowingly it has many side effects for us. Recently, I went for an Ayurvedic World Conference. The event was attended by many Ayurvedic specialist doctors from all around the world. There was an Ayurvedic nutrition doctor who shared information which gave me a big impact. He told us to avoid all the foods which are in white color. For example, white rice, white flour, white milk, white sugar, white salt. This is because they are all refined and not in the original product. Instead of consuming white rice, you can take brown rice and as you see, that's what most of the dietician and health specialist suggested. Next, replace white sugar with brown sugar, the same goes for milk, you can replace it with soy milk. He also ...
