An Eventful Day!!!

Everyday dawns with something special in store,just that we need to be aware of the happenings all through the day.Only then can we observe and appreciate how very special each and every day is.
22nd July is any way an important date in my calender,needless to mention that this was the day when there rose a wave in the ocean bearing my name....
Well,well the waves sure have been rather kind to me for most part and am indeed thankful for that.
This year was really special in many ways.Got up early morning all happy and excited because I had a truly amazing and lovely dream just before I woke up.Indeed great beginning for a lovely day ahead.
First,may be the first time I was with my mother on this day after along time may be.
Second,The first time I got a lovely bouquet of red and white carnations arranged in a watermelon sent by my dear daughter.Thank you dear,love you so for that beautiful gesture.
Third,Probably the first time I got a phone call from my dear son in the morning wishing me...vow,that truly did call for a celebration....Thank you so much sonny for remembering to wish...love you so.......
Fourth and very special and important to me,the first time I had a dream (early morning)that a divine soul is blessing my home with HIS presence.
Fifth,the first time I had a Guru Pooja at our lovely home in Pune,followed by a sweet and lovely satsangh.
Sixth,probably the first time in a really longprobably time that I was caught unawares with just a vessel of drinking water and no water supply for the rest of the day....
Seventh,managed to turn out a simple meal inspite of the no water situation at home...
Eighth,my creativity was at its best and used innovative and novel ways to face the water shortage...
Ninth,probably after a really long time I actually did wear a new saree on my birthday (usually I do have new sarees and clothes but for some reason never wear them that day).
Tenth and probably the best part is that I retained my cool inspite of all the chaos that day at home.(Created because of no water)
It was indeed an eventful day with lots happening all through the day.As mentioned earlier on the day started off with Guru Pooja,performed by a very dear and wonderful god sent person.I hardly met this person a couple of times before,yet I felt that I always knew her.She immediately agreed to come over and do the guru pooja at home that day inspite of her hectic schedule.Am indeed grateful to her for this.
Needless to mention that the pooja was so very beautiful and followed by a lovely satsangh for about an hour may be.I have posted a picture of the shrine at home.
I realised that as long as things are made available to us whenever we need we probably do not recognise the value and importance of that.We appreciate and realise how precious water is only when we are deprived of it.Isn't that true??
Thanks to bottled water that is available just a phone call away.I am sure the guy must have made quite a few bucks selling bottled water that day.This made sure that atleast there was no dearth of drinking water for the day,also I could cook something for lunch and dinner.
Each and every event that we come across teaches us a lesson.Life is a learning process all the way.
It was a rainy day too with continuous drizzles all through the day and what came to my mind then was "water water every where not a drop to drink"......
For a while I did think that I would not be able to make it to the Ayurvedic cooking course which I had joined,but I decided that I am no way going to allow such issues to come in the way, and sure went and enjoyed a wonderful class.
For most part I must admit that lots happened on 22nd July which made it even more special and memorable.
