<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I watched my mother-in-law, taking care of her pets. She not only nursed and cared for them, she also protected them. She had a dog, chicken (a small poultry) and a parrot, named Mithu. While she walked around, she would talk to Mithu and feed her.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then, it was time to clean up Mithu's cage. She took Mithu out of the cage, while she cleaned up the cage. To my surprise, the bird did not fly away to freedom. I asked my mother-in-law, why isn't she flying. I was shocked to hear her reply, "her wings have been clipped off". </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">A feeling of sadness overwhelmed me. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Somehow, I could relate myself with that bird. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I went to Mithu every day, would watch her inside her cage, she watched me too, quietly from her cage. I wanted so much for her to fly and be truly happy.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">One fine morning, after my mother in law had left for the hospital, where she worked as a nurse, I went to Mithu again. To my surprise, she wasn't there. Her cage was not open. Where was Mithu, I couldn't see her anywhere around. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I just had to wait till mother returned around 4 p.m.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">There were no mobile phones available then. I waited impatiently for her to return. I was a bit worried for Mithu. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">As soon as mother returned, I rushed to the gate and told her Mithu was not in the cage. She smiled and then laughed and told me, Mithu had grown back her feathers and could fly again, I let her fly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I could see, she was happy for Mithu and so was I, wishing that she was safe too.</span><br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Our country is under the constant threat of being divided by religion, mainly, Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians, etc </span></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">We are a land of different cultures and religions and what binds us together is the common belief that there is a God and He is omnipotent. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">We believe in prayer. We have different ways of acknowledging the presence of God and His power. Thus, it is the Fear of God that is the beginning of wisdom and it is the knowledge of His presence that leads to Understanding. So with this knowledge, we are all spiritual. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Let's not lose our spirituality. As human beings, lets respect one another, care for the less fortunate, and above all, let's spread love and tolerance. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Let's not be divided !

<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;">Suddenly one day, I found myself all alone with three little kids, It was a choice I had made. The only thing I knew was, I wanted to live. The only thought that crossed my mind was, how was I going to survive, especially with my three children. I was employed and that was my only door of hope.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">At that moment, I took a leap of faith,and set out into the strange world. That leap of faith did wonders! I continued living, not knowing how my belief was working for almost the past twenty five years! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The most recent blessing, was when I recently listened to all of the Brain-A-Thon Webinars conducted by NeuroGym, which is headed by Mr. John Assaraf.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="font-weight: normal;"><br />

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">John Assaraf began with saying God has given us the best </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>tool</b></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, which is our Brain. As I listened to the webinars, I realized how we seem to take this gift for granted, as a result, we fail in achieving the potential each one of us have been blessed with.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We need to make use of this gift. How to go about it, is what the Brain-A-Thon explained through the webinar through proven scientific understanding of how our brains work. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; text-align: justify; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial"; text-align: justify; white-space: pre-wrap;">“Winning the game of Business and Financial success.”, it reached out to me. I wished I had listened to this earlier. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; text-align: justify; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br />We need to be conscious of our belief, emotions, perceptions and behaviour in order to achieve our dreams, and more importantly, our purpose in life and that’s just the beginning!</span><br />
