It has been a wonderful journey of knowing and understanding the real essence of life . Love , marriage and parenting are the important stages of ones life where there are many misconceptions and believes attached.
The statement – “Life is difficult ” was the highlight of the whole journey for me. As accepting the situation and taking charge of the same makes it easy to deal with.
An eye opener of the journey was the ‘parenting session, where being a mother I could relate myself . Parenting session was a learning, understanding , reflecting and realizing.
Lastly, “Love is extending yourself “- be it a daughter, a wife or a mother……

A heartily thanks to my facilitators.

I understood the true meaning of Love,love class is Introspection in our life. It is a real life application.Parenting one of my area of interest and I am very keen and attached to my kid. My learning from this class about parenting is I have to give quality time to my kid.

Different stages of marriage life is a new learning me .Marriage is definitely not an easy ride, its a journey with lots of learning. My personal view is life is not difficult but “life is game, its play” . I am still working on balancing my life .

Would like to start with a quote from the great Dalai Lama:    ” When you think everything is someone else’s fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself, you will learn both peace & joy”.

At the start of the first session, I was thinking why will we be discussing about love as love is a natural feeling that one experiences right from birth ( starting with love from parents and then others). Only once the session started, I realised that how love was connected to life, happiness and how it could affect the journey of one’s life.

It is a fact that ” life is difficult ” and the choice is entirely ours,  how we lead and live it. Life being not easy, we come across many problems and sometimes we make it more complicated. If we accept the fact that problems are always going to be there and face it strongly, life would go on far more smoothly rather than crying over it and end up putting less efforts towards overcoming the issues. Suffering was also one of the points covered and it is again a truth that suffering is always emotional. There is pain involved in love and relationships and pain can either be physical or emotional. How important is suffering for an individual as it is definitely an experience and learning for a person.

Another important learning was delayed gratification and how it could also affect one’s life and relationship. I could do reality check for myself over it and discovered how things could have been smooth and better, if I would had done certain activities timely instead of delaying the same. Running away from responsibilities and problems would not do any good at all & openness to challenges would really reap dividends.

Further, as love’s definition, 8 stages of love, dependency & entitles of marriage was covered, it helped me do a reality check, reflect and apply the learnings personally especially to strengthen the bond & relationship with family, friends & colleagues. I see myself calm and responsible now responding to personal issues and fulfilling the expectations of everyone at home.

Parenting & forgiveness was widely covered and the valuable sharing by everyone during the session is definitely going to benefit. Parenting tips and challenges were noted as I am yet to become a parent and various experiences shared during the session will definitely help me at some point of time. To forgive and forget is a virtue which is really difficult but once the person applies it in actual he would definitely feel light and relaxed as it would surely result in improved relationship.

Would like to thank Hasina maam & Falguni maam for providing us the space where we could extend ourselves & share individual opinions & experiences. Also, would like to thank all the participants for showing tremendous spirit & enthusiasm during all the sessions, making them very  interesting & highly interactive. Looking forward towards the next step – Integrity.

First of all thank you so much FS for conducting Life/Love classes that have actually changed approach towards life.

I have accepted that Life is difficult and once accepted, I could actually see the changes in my life and now I am able to handle it in an appropriate way and able to enjoy. One more thing I have learned is that every problem has a solution, I think the thing is that first, we need to understand the problem properly so that we can come up with multiple solutions/options to solve a problem. In daily life, we come up with a lot of problems and if we starting thinking of solutions for those problems then it will make our life easier. And sometimes few problems or things give us pain but I think that pain actually makes me strong and ultimately I’m growing. My approach towards problems has become more positive.

Now whenever any problem comes, the first thing I do is I make myself calm and cool, say myself that not to worry and let’s find a solution for it. This thing has actually boosted my confidence.

Thanks so much to all facilitators and participants for sharing and making me grow.. 🙂

My journey of love class is an enriching one. It helped me to love myself. The  journey of my  life is now smooth to sail,  be it a professional or personal life. The power of acceptance is wonderful. It helped to forgive and build on relationship. It also helped to face challenges with courage.

The most important part is confrontation which I generally avoid. It helped to build on relationship. Listening is an art.

“Sometimes all a person wants is an empathetic ear; all he or she needs is to talk it out. Just offering a listening ear and an understanding heart for his or her suffering can be a big comfort.”
― Roy T. Bennett

It’s important to listen to understand then to reply is a key take away from the love class.

I always used to think, why my life is difficult and why I am the only victim. This thought was driving me from last ten years which was limiting me to perform in my life. In Love Class, I have gone through a fact that life is anyway going to be difficult and it is going to throw the circumstances to test me. Accepting this reality helped me to improve on my thoughts about life and helped to prepare myself to handle the circumstances and not to become a victim of it.

I have learned about Discipline which helped to balance my professional and personal life in a more settled manner. I learnt about Love and showing my love to my loved ones where I am extending myself to improve relationships with my parents. I also found that as compared to previous year, this year I had a better rapport with my students.

I have learned about Marriage, its stages which helped me identify my current stage and how can I take it to a next better level and also Core Dynamics which is helping me to make my marriage life smoother. It helped me to let go the things which comes across my healthy relationships. I have a better relationship with my father now after I have learned the distinction Forgiveness.

I wanted to thank my facilitators Falguni Ma’am and Hasina Ma’am who helped me in giving a ray of hope to my life. So, overall Love Class had a great impact on my life and helped me to be a better individual.

Thank you.
