Weekend Bollywood Blast: Trust makes life worth living

On this thanksgiving weekend, I would like to dedicate this Bollywood song to a single quality, that I feel makes life worth living for all of us. Without it, our lives would be barren and filled with sadness.

I am personally happy for a lot of things in my life. My Swami, my daughter, my friends, my parents, you my blog readers and many other wonderful things, God has blessed me with in this life

However, I am most thankful that human beings are capable of trust, even under the most extraordinary circumstances. It is the source of our strongest relationships and our best memories and our most uplifting moments spring from it. Love would be impossible without it and our social contracts would be meaningless in its absence.

Trust is truly the foundation on which human society is built.

This song shows what happens when jealousy and doubt replace trust in our lives.

In "Hum Tumhare hain sanam" (I am yours my love), a jealous husband destroys his marriage by suspecting his wife of infidelity. I am so thankful, my Swami is nothing like him.

I hope that in the coming year, I will always be thankful for the presence of loved ones in my life and will have the wisdom to show my gratitude by trusting them.

Happy Thanksgiving everybody!!

Watch the song with subtitles turned on, to enjoy it better

Hugs
