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

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...

Open Letter to the love of my life

Happiest birthday to my bestest friend, my favorite person, my mentor, my soulmate, my constant, my universe, my everything…..   29 years back on this day, an angel was born in Patna. And that angle has made me cry with laughter and made my life full of adventure for 1071 days. This day isn’t just about adding another candle to your cake, but it’s so much more than that. It’s another year of crazy amazing memories, stupid jokes, millions of smiles, and another year of holding each other. It’s a celebration of the day the love of my life came into this world. I know you are rolling your eyes, but I’m writing this post to tell you how much you mean to me.      You are my anchor in the waves and winds.      You are my first and last ( and 1000 in between)   thought of the day.      You are the wind beneath my wings.        You are my sunshine, my moon, and all my stars.      You baby, ar...
