Good converstions can inspire, entertain and even change the course of life....The leading article in Times life (Suppliment along with Sunday’s Times of India) was on this topic and this question was asked to some of the celibrities like Anupam Kher, Vinod Kambli, Sunidhi Chauhan etc and they replied with some examples how a chat with a friend or a word of advice from a stranger changed their lives at some point of their life.

I am putting the same question to all Toostep members .......Did you experienced it or believe that this will be possible….Share your views

I would have been never think about creating a debate on this topic after reading the article if it was not happened in my life. I was going through some hard times recently because of some family issues and was living a lonely life intentionally without much interest in public life. And since I spend most of my professional life outside India till recently….I was not having much close friends here in Delhi to share my problems as I am new here…..hence it was a great relief for me when I got a friend who was so understanding, caring and giving great values to friendship through a social web site (which I never thought it is possible to get good friends through internet).

And when that person came to know about my situation I got a mail soon with the advice “just remember no Person is as higher to take ur happiness/energy/time and moreover ur moments. Today is important. U urself is more important so u can take care of such issues by thinking from a higher prespective. Anyway probs were always there, will always be...so lets try to rejoice the fact that one can still Enjoy in life if one wishes to..

It was so motivational to make some immediate changes in me and my life style…..and still remembers whenever I feel low…..and I am dedicating this debate to the one who was so kind to become a close friend within no time.

Any thing good or said for our betterment should be accepted and necessary changes should be made.Importance should never be give to the person saying anything.Importance should always be given to the message.it should be analysed without any bias about the capabilities,age,experience of the person saying it.Everything should be accepted on merit.

Dear Manoj, This is the only relation which can be chosen & most of the time proved as asset to every individual. Friendship is the only relation which is done without any intention. I salute to your friend & his friendship & also to you for discussing the personal problem. Discussion is the key to solve any problem & sharing of problem to any friend gives you relief. Thanks for discussing this sensitive topic on Toostep.

Mr.Manoj please not to treat it as advice, but shared my experience and suggestions only. Advice is given only in critical period as did by Lord Krishna to Arjuna during war in Mahabharatam. I am a ordinary man.

Discussing with friends helps to alleviate one's problems as the person feels relieved that he has shared his burden with another person. Evolution has built and ensured that people stay basically as social members as this is also a good way to ensure the survival of the human race for the future....

Thanks for the referral, Natteraja....

Thanks Natteraja for the advice....Though I didnt read BHAGAVAD GEETA fully I am a firm believer of God...Though I written about some of my problems....it doesnt mean that I am living a low life.....but to the fullest......I never bother much about what happened in the past or what is going to happen tomorrow....just living in the present.....

I created the debate only to know others experience related to it and to convey a message that a good friend who can understand others even our silence is a real asset in the balance sheet of life......

Many people will walk in and out of our life, but only true friends will leave footprints in our heart.

Thanks once again for spending much time to write the comment....You are one of the selfless member of this forum..Keep up the good work

Well, Mr. Manoj Kumar I could understand your feelings. It is true that a friend in need is a friend indeed. However discussing the problems with a trusted friend will reduce the burden and it helps to find out a solution also in certain cases. But certain problems can not be resolved and sometimes it makes the person so weak when it is discussed with others.

Life is not a bed of roses, we have to struggle and fight it out which needs the morale courage. The people who have taken birth in this world pass through various types of difficulties which can not be denied. Hence everybody has their own problems and without problems nobody is there in this world, of course the degrees of problems vary from individual to individual.

In case you have not misunderstand, I would suggest you to read Baghavat Gita that will help you to extricate you from all your issues. The difficulties that one experiencing in life is a examination for him to pass the tests in life. Please do not forget this and I am not advising you but as a friend suggesting you.

Kindly note that the gold is extricated from impurity and finally converted into different types of ornaments. Therefore life is like that. Please do not afraid of problems and face it what may come. If one starts afraid of probles, it will kill him. As per Baghavat Gita, strength is life and weakness is death.

There are problems in life which are sometimes beyond our control. These types of problems can be submitted to God to have solutions. Here the prayer/worship with whole heart to God will give the remedy. This means complete surrender to God. I have experienced in my life and sharing this with all friends in this forum.

It may please be noted that one can not stop rain or the sun rays when they are on the extreme side, but one could reduce its severe effects by using a umbrella. Similarly God will help to reduce the bad effects of the problems encountered in life.

I do not know how this will be taken by our friends in this forum. Thanks for sharing Mr. Manoj Kumar.

Mr. Manoj I totally agree with U. Aisa hi kuch mere saath bhi hua hai.. Maine bhi kabhi nahi socha tha ki virtual world (Internet) me mujhe aise dost milenge jinse baat kar ke aisa nahi lagega ki pehali baar baat kar raha hoon, aisa laga ki jaise bahut pehale se janta hoon. Mujhe bhi Internet se kuch bahut hi ache dost mile jinse apani feelings share karke bahut acha lagata hai aur jo humesha mujhe motivate karte hai life me aage badne ke liye. Maine real life me jitane ache dost nahi banaye utane to maine internet ke through banaye hai.. Aur sach me jab aapke pass aise dost ho to life bahut easy ho jaati hai..Toostep me aake bhi mujhe kuch ache dost mile aur logo ko aur ache se janane ka aur shikhane ka mauka laga. So itz really works...Thanks for referal Mr. Manoj..

DEAR MANOJ , I TOTALLY AGREE TO YOUR VIEWTHAT ,SHARING EXPERIENCE CAN GIVE SOME ONE A LOT WHICH WE CAN NOT THINK OF.DEAR IT IS ALWAYS A PROBLEM THAT YOU MAY BE FULLY PROFESSIONAL AT WOORK BUT IN PERSONNEL MATTERS YOU BECOME SENTIMENTAL.WHEN WE ARE HURT BY SOME BAD EXPERIENCE WE THINK OVER IT WHY THAT FELLOW DID SUCH A THING TO ME.IN THINKING WE WASTE OUR PRESENT TIME WHICH CAN BE UTALISED FOR BETTERMENT.SO FORGET ABOUT PAST LOOK FORWARD TO PRESENT AND THE FUTURE.

Many people touch our lives in different ways. the medium through which they do so does not matter...just the fact that they have helped us along our journey and been instrumental in making a difference. I believe it is the working of our good faith in humanity that we encounter people in our lives who make a difference...through NET or 'otherwise' does not matter.
