GOLDEN THOUGHTS OF THIRUKKURAL - Parenting !!!!

*Tirukkural  by Tiruvalluvar (a Tamil  poet/writer) was written more than 5,000 yrs ago. It’s one of the ancient science on Human Behaviour, which has not changed in spite of modern education  & technology!*

*SOME GOLDEN THOUGHTS OF THIRUKKURAL:*

1. *If your child lies to you often, it is because you over-react too harshly to their inappropriate behaviour.*

2. *If your child is not taught to confide in you about their mistakes, you’ve lost them.*

3. *If your child had poor self-esteem, it is because you advice them more than you encourage them.*

4. *If your child does not stand up for themselves, it is because from a young age you have disciplined them regularly in public.*

5. *If your child takes things that do not belong to them, it is because when you buy them things, you don’t let them chose what they want.*

6. *If your child is cowardly, it is because you help them too quickly.*

7. *If your child does not respect other people’s feelings, it is because instead of speaking to your child, you order & command them.*
 
8. *If your child is too quick to anger, it is because you give too much attention to misbehaviour & you give little attention to good behaviour.*

9. *If your child is excessively jealous, it is because you only congratulate them when they successfully complete something & not when they improve at something even if they don’t successfully complete it*

10. *If your child intentionally disturbs you, it is because you are not physically affectionate enough.*

11. *If your child is openly defiant, it is because you openly threaten to do something but don’t follow through.*

12. *If your child is secretive, it is because they don’t trust that you won’t blow things out of proportion.*

13. *If your child talks back to you, it is because they watch you do it to others & think its normal behaviour.*

14. *If your child doesn’t listen to you but listens to others, it is because you are too quick to jump to conclusions*

15. *If your child rebels it is because they know you care more about what others think than what is right*

*IT MAY GUIDE OUR MODERN  PARENTING!*
*Positive Parenting!*

🌿 From Strangers to Friends: A One-Day Trek to Tada Waterfalls 🌿

“Sometimes the best friendships begin with a shared journey.” 🌅  Early Morning, New Beginnings We started our day early —  5:30 AM  — from different places in and around  Chennai . Fifty-three people. All strangers. One destination. One adventure. We boarded an  awesome DJ music bus , and from that moment, the vibe was set. Music played, smiles appeared, and the silence between strangers slowly melted away. 🎶  Ice Breakers, Music & Moving Feet Quick introductions turned into laughter. DJ music turned into dancing. Strangers slowly turned into a  happy, energetic gang . After about an hour, we stopped for breakfast — and wow, what a start! 🍽️  Breakfast That Fueled the Adventure A delicious  mini tiffin combo  awaited us: Idly Dosa Poori Pongal Keerai Vada An awesome breakfast, full stomachs, happy hearts — and we were back on the road. 🌤️  Nature Welcomed Us Perfectly Around  11:00 AM , we reached  Tada .

Just Being Me — A Life of Journeys, Purpose and Little Moments

A simple story of a woman who chose to live, learn, travel, grow and keep discovering herself. There are some lives that cannot be described by a job title, a designation, or a list of achievements. Mine is one of them. I am  Gayathri Raghunathan  — a professional, a traveller, a learner, a nature lover, a spiritual seeker, a homemaker, a dreamer, and above all, a woman who believes that life is meant to be experienced. I don't have a perfect life. I have a real one — filled with responsibilities, challenges, beautiful people, unexpected turns, lessons, laughter, journeys and countless little moments that have shaped who I am today. And perhaps, that is what makes my story beautiful. 🌿 A Girl Who Grew Up to Become Her Own Person Life has taught me that becoming yourself is a journey. Over the years, I have grown from someone simply moving through life's stages into a woman who understands what she values, what makes her happy and what kind of life she wants to create. I have ...

🌟 Padaiyappa: A Timeless Journey with Thalaivar (1999–2025) 🌟

🎬  The Beginning – 1999 Magic I was in my  10th standard  when  Padaiyappa  released. Wow… wow… wow! What a  terrific theatrical experience  it was. Watching my  Superstar Thalaivar  on the big screen was nothing short of electrifying. As a young fan girl, I loved the movie to the core and admired Thalaivar with all my heart. That phase marked the beginning of an unbreakable bond with his cinema and charisma. 🌆  Life’s Turning Point – Chennai Calling Life took a beautiful twist soon after, when we  shifted to Triplicane, Chennai . Wow… what an interesting turn! From that point on, life showed only  upward growth . Thalaivar’s movies, dialogues, and powerful life philosophies became a constant source of  motivation and strength , guiding me through every path I walked. 🔥  Lessons Beyond Cinema Thalaivar has always been more than a superstar — a  timeless motivator . His journey, discipline, humility, and larger...
