Story about Krishna and his two favourite wives.

Rukmini-Krishna

Rukmini was the first wife to Krishna.
She loved him a lot. However, with time she realized that giving her time was a big issue for Krishna.
As king of Dwaraka, Krishna had to spend lot of time with yadavas, well-wishers, seven-other wives and look after his kingdom. All these kept him occupied and he couldn’t give her time or attention she had deserved.
Rukmini made peace with it. She understood that everyone wanted to spend time with Krishna as much as her and they also loved him as equally as her.
She accepted this weakness and started to experience his love even in his absence. She saw omnipresence in his love.
That’s how their relationship stayed strong.

Krishna-Satya
Satyabhama was the third wife to Krishna.
She was fiery, short-tempered and very possessive.
She always demanded love, attention and time from Krishna irrespective of his other commitments. She wanted him to be with her always and desired to be his most favourite queen.
Krishna made peace with it. He understood that her impatience, selfishness and arrogance, all stemmed from her strong love towards him.
He accepted her weakness and did everything (taking her everywhere he went, touching her feet, uprooting parijata plant and giving it to her) to make her happy. He never got angry or annoyed at her tantrums.
That’s how their relationship stayed intact.

The thing that made the relationships work in both the cases is
Acceptance & Adjustment.
It is near-impossible to find perfect people.
As humans, we are not cut out to be perfect. We are multi-dimensional characters. We have anger, jealousy, priorities, selfishness, mediocrity, impatience etc.
Everyone of us come with our own set of flaws. We all try to be good but situations sometimes bring out different facets of us.
If your partner’s imperfections are within your tolerable limit, the best thing you could do is to accept them, make peace with their behavior and find ways to live with them without letting your relationship getting disturbed.
Togetherness lies in making peace with these differences.
If you think that there is larger happiness in your relationship, then
  • Sometimes you need to give primary importance to the relationship and put yourself beneath it
  • Sometimes you need to accept that it is okay to lose yourself to make your relationship win
  • Sometimes you need to realise that you can’t change people as you want and you need to let them be.
That’s how successful relationships grew and sustained.

The truth is, none of us are easy to date, deal with, or please all the time. We all have our vices, attitudes, & way of doing things that make

The Day I Lost A Person Full Of Unconditional Love - My Grandfather

It was the hardest day of my life. My heart sank to the stomach and I was at loss for words. All I could do was cry. It’s true when they say that a phone call can change your entire life in just seconds. 17 September 2019 - a day l will never forget. It was a day that my world became less bright, less fun, and less right. My heart ached. My vision blurred. The only thing going on in my mind was - I’ve never lived in a world where he didn’t exist. I’ve never lived in a world where he did not draw breath.          1 year has passed since then.   These days, I must learn how to overcome the kind of pain that all of us must go through: the death of someone we love.   I still remember, how he used to get me a khare shengdana every day after school. How he used to tell me stories before dinner. How he used to laugh on my lame jokes. And then I remember his body has now turned into ashes. That smile along with his photo has now ...

Groundwork Of An Interview

Want to take a leap in career but not sure where to start? There are a number of steps you can take before (and after) the interview to ensure that you make a terrific impression on your potential employer. Let’s go through the "before" steps together. Step 1: Pre- Preparation Analysis Self - analysis is very crucial in deciding the preparation strategy. The two key elements in this process are: I] Time span: if you have ample time to prepare, I would recommend understanding every topic compressively. Just in case, you are running out of time, you must avoid getting deep understanding of a few topics and try to cover all the paramount topics. II] Learning Pace: Learning pace is a relative term and varies according to individuals. Time and Pace go hand-in-hand for planning out preparation strategy. Step 2:  Determining the Aim and Objective This step is like a pre-workout meal. If you skip it you will be able to achieve a result but not the best one. Under...

Groundwork Of An Interview -Part II

1] On The Day of Interview : Ensure you are punctual. Reaching the venue 10 mins prior to the scheduled time would not only help you make a  good first impression but also will help you get acquainted with the new environment and clam your mind. Being hydrated is another important thing to keep in mind. Interviews might take a lot of time and you need to be best on the interview day. 2] During the interview Be calm. An interview isn’t a place to decide whether you want to get into the organization so keep those thoughts on hold till after the interview. Don't shy away from accepting your lack of knowledge about any topic this would save you any future embarrassment. Ensure to be pleasant but not timid, confident but not rude 2] After the interview Wait patiently for the response. There are a few hidden indications of responses.“We will get back to you”  or “You can leave for the day” are generally indications of a negative response. So don’t hold on to hopes. But do no...
