Defining Being

As you may know me.... I try to pen my feelings, with more honesty than with language and grammar. While reading the posts below you may experience what compelled me to write these.
While I was thinking of giving a name to my Blog; this came to me; "Nuances of Being"
Being "Me" is the best that I am at and hope that will show in the posts below

And Thanks for reading

Renewal

Renewal; such a beautiful word! This one word has the essence of life.

Renew- Make it NEW again. 

It is such a potent word and such a potent concept. The word that speaks of hope; that ascertains that things can be made NEW again, why else would have someone designed this word?

Everything that has a beginning must have an end also. The process in between; from the beginning to end is the process of aging. Also this process is what we simplistically call “Life”

Life; from the start, to be born new and continue aging till the end.

And then come the messiah; healing with the divine touch and taking the disease out. Disease that signifies aging, the corruption of the being physically and spiritually the demons of corruption are casted away and the being made new again
 – Renewal

And as Lord Krishna said in the Geeta

वासांसि जीर्णिनी विहाय नवानि गृहनती नरोप्रानि 
तथा शरीराणि विहाय जीर्नान्यन्यानी  संयाति नवानि देहि 

As we change the dirty clothes in our daily life to put on the new and clean cloths; in the same way the soul casts off the old body to get a new body

Renewal !!

I got so engrossed in the philosophy that I totally forgot the reason I had started thinking about the word. Renewal always brings the feeling of freshness; even when it is something as small as renewal of a library card. And if it is Renewal of commitment made to self in a difficult situation some time ago; it brings back vigor to living.

Renewal; one word describing the whole cycle of New to Old to New again. One word that completes the circle.

-RENEWAL!!!
