The creator has wisely and elegantly designed the environment which we oftentimes take for granted as we are too busy and entangled in ourselves. We need to take a moment to live in the present moment, feel the beauty of nature, be grateful, understand the things from other person perspective and introspect our intentions and actions. It is in our hands whether we make the place a hell or heaven. Having said so, with a virtuous attitude we can flip the negativity into positivity.
Whether the place is opulent or spartan, we must appreciate it. Everything is beautiful in its own way when we look with love and stop looking for flaws. I have spent majority of my time in Delhi and quinquennial time in Pune, henceforth I will elucidate why Delhi is ahead of its time and Pune provides a meaning to life?
Six Reasons Why Delhi Is Sensational?
