Surfer Mentality

Published January 16, 2025 By 8ijay.shrestha

You can’t catch any waves siting on the shore. Always put yourself in the water.

Sahil Bloom

Laage Re Nain – Ayesha Omar, Rohali Hyatt

I was having a conversation with my Twin brother regarding the need of urgency in our lives.

I have been Pro-Urgent for a very long time.

I’m of an opinion that

Urgency invites change, demands commitment and hardship

Change invites Opportunities, demands consistency and discipline.

Opportunities invites responsibilities, makes like meaningful, purposeful and fruitful.

Wisdom demands what Bloom calls a ‘Surfer Mentality’

Meaning.

When a surfer rides a wave, they savor the present, knowing all too well that it won’t last forever. They fully immerse themselves in the experience, embracing each moment with the wisdom that more waves will follow.

Succinctly put.

Be mindful.

Of your decisions.

Of your indecisions.

Namaste.

Charlotte – please be kind

Fall in love with places. Fall in love with the situations. Inspect. Accept. Adapt.

My Space is Overgrown – Aayushi

I will be moving to Charlotte, North Carolina on January 11, 2025.

Having been living a nomadic life since I stepped in the US on October of 2021; The two suitcase life has been delightfully rewarding.

Who else than Colin Wright can explain this way of living.

Not having a stable, fixed household has never been a cause for concern.

I don’t have regrets a bit.

I take it as an opportunity to stretch and grow further.

I take it as an experience of the privileged,.. for the privileged — if things are full-well under control and fore-planned.

I like it.

Most certainly, it will be a wild, exciting, exhilarating and exhausting couple of days. Probably a week or two.

To settle down.

To acclimatize to new normal.

Charlotte — please be kind, gentle and beautiful!

Namaste.

Not happy

Published January 2, 2025 By Bijay Shrestha

If who you are is what you have and what you have is lost then who are you?

Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
BEAR’S DEN – ABOVE THE CLOUDS OF POMPEII

10:14PM.

In bed.

Alone.

Feels like vomiting.

I am not happy.

I don’t feel good.

Identity crisis?

I don’t know.

It feels like I’m being stabbed by a blunt force, not exactly sure what it really is.

It feels like someone has deliberately put a concrete on top my chest and I can’t get it off no matter how much I try, no matter which side of the bed i toss into.

I tried deep breath in hope of respite.

I tried talking myself into eating self motivation, high calorie intellectual diet.

I am so so so … not happy!

I just want to scream it out loud.

That’s all.

Consider these empty, meaningless, tasteless, pitiful and silent word-cry — me shouting on top of my close-to-collapse-dying-lungs.

I want to get it out of my system.

I need some sort of echo chamber to contain these thoughts into.

To cleanse myself.

To walk away.

In hope that eventually — everything will be just okay.

Everything does.

I’m okay, I feel okay.

Time to close the chapter for today.

Namaste.

Dream

Sometimes I wonder, why can’t dream be the purpose, … a journey?

500 miles – Joan Baez

It would be a dream come true.

An ordinary random day I get to say,” We have been happily married for more than 45 years…”

That’s the dream!

Choose love

Published December 20, 2024 By Bijay Shrestha

Choose love, everyday, every-time!

Musicpervs
EKDEV LIMBU – Jhim Jhimaune Aankha 

Care to read and you will relate.

Care not, you will relate.

… about choosing love over the alternative!

The secret to lasting love lies in gratitude.
When you have someone special, resist the urge to look elsewhere.
The grass isn’t greener—it’s simply a different shade of the same.

Cherish what you have, for love isn’t about flawless perfection.
It’s about choosing each other, through the chaos,
through the challenges, time and time again.

In a world where quitting comes so easily,
a single argument or a rough day often leads to goodbye.
But the most beautiful love stories are born from resilience.

They are written by those who stay when it’s tough,
who confront their doubts,
and who remind themselves daily how fortunate they are to share their lives.

Love isn’t built on ease; it flourishes through commitment.
Be the story that endures—not because it was effortless,
but because you held on to the magic that made it worth it.

Choose love, always.

Namaste.

We only die once

Published December 12, 2024 By 8ijay.shrestha

Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

Seneca
Ek Din Aap Yoon Humko Mil Jayenge

The entire while from when I was born, life has been wild and surprising,

Curve balls after curve balls.

Scaring. Scarring. Hustling, Humbling.

Chaotic. At times orderly for sure.

Changing. Demanding.

But. .. .but

One thing has been ‘a’ constant.

Yes, it was painful. It was petrifying.

It was confusing. Damning.

Regardless, no remorse.

No regrets.

Wouldn’t change anything.

About life, snoppy nails it best.

So.

Take this mixed bag. Do what you can do, when you can do, where you can do, how you can do. Focus on the now!

The Little Things.

Namaste.

Happy Solution Day

Published December 5, 2024 By 8ijay.shrestha

Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

Seneca, Letters to Lucilius
Prateek Kuhad – I’m Someone New

Back in 2019, I saved her phone number under the name “Solution” from the very first time I got it.

Beside anonymity’s sake I chose ‘Solution’ in particular, because she literally use to have solution for everything.

She is reliable!

From the very first weeks of knowing her, I could tell that astuteness is a fundamental part of her nature.

From how I’ve see her, Problem Solving has most-definitely been her forte.

For this same reason, the name ‘Solution’ has stayed on my phone for 5 years now.

Her texts,.. the calls still rings with ‘Solution’.

It won’t change.

Reminds me of the rich story we share together.

Reminds me of a trustworthy partner.

Reminds me of our humble beginning.

Reminds me of who I’m warmly married to (figuratively).

Her flaws. Her virtues.

Her fury. Her tranquility.

Happy Solution Day!

Namaste.

December 5

Published December 5, 2024 By Bijay Shrestha

Love is the bridge between you and everything.

~ Rumi
JVKE – her

She’s my Anandamide.

She has always been the exception.

Funny. Flawed.

Class Feminine. Ferocious.

Humble. Reliable.

Curious. Caring.

Giving and Genuine.

Independent. Astute — she is a dancing tree around the fall.

A whistle in the wind.

Oasis of the desert.

Tides in the ocean.

A warm sun of the winter.

And, most definitely a woman with substance-character.

While at times she is as delicate as Cherry Blossom, she’s also an apt embodiment of Lotus that she has engraved on her Calcaneus — rightly so!

While very much fondly I have watched her laugh hysterically. I’ve also seen her sob her heart out.

While very much playfully I annoy her in full cylinder,

While at times I have also hurt her to shreds,

I love her… I really, really love her.

Happy December 5, Solution!

Namaste.

Acceptance … for consequence of consequences

Published November 28, 2024 By Bijay Shrestha

Don’t complain. Don’t explain.

Benjamin Disraeli.
Agape – Bear’s Den 

You invite anyone in your life,

you buy anything today,

albeit that adds value to your life,

albeit that makes your life a little better, a little brighter, a little beautiful,

albeit that fulfills your long awaited thirst,

albeit it becomes your bragg-instrument, your proxy identity.

You equally invite the inevitability of them leaving you;

you buy the equivalent risk of losing it one day, of damaging it someday, of them wearing and tearing over time.

Acceptance … for consequence of consequences (good and the bad) is a tough pill to swallow.

It’s no less than a punch in the face.

It’s no less than a skill

It’s no less than a virtue.

For it renders and instigates the art of positive thinking and it is one thousand percent reliable.

Acceptance gives us strength in the face of adversity,

the wisdom in the face of confusion,

the courage in the face of uphill battle,

the reality check in the face of illusion,

the balanced perspective in the face of over analysis, over thinking.

Accept the good. Accept the bad that comes with it.

Namaste.

Well .. we all need that one companion in our life

Published November 21, 2024 By Bijay Shrestha

“Everyone is a bit scared.” Said the horse. “But we are less scared together.”

Charlie Mackey
Do Patti: Raanjhan 

Having attended so many funerals from early age, I’ve seen many cold, lifeless bodies. Perhaps because of these experiences, I’m also of an opinion that we all need that one companion in our life — who’d stand by us. With us.

No question asked.

Effortlessly.

Willingly, and

Heartfully!

‘One’, … one is sufficient.

And, to be able to earn that one friend,

that one utterly special soul

is — in my honest opinion a matter of pure luck.

It is also an underestimated fortune.

At times also easily overlooked, easily missed.

This friend could be your parents,

your siblings,

your partner,

your best friend,

your son and daughter,

your grand parents,

your cousins, nephews, or someone once a complete stranger.

Do yourself a favor, let this person know that she or he is your person!

A non-negotiable piece.

A constant.

A balance.

Namaste.
