This game is hosted by Vinitha Dileep,
on her blog 'Reflections' and
I discovered it on Esha's blog. This time the word prompt is
'RITUAL'.

I have read many times about the coffee or the tea ritual. I use this idea too, only that
I discover that these rituals about whatever I want, are similar more with habits.
The ones that intersect the movie of the day with moments of happy little pleasures,
that break for a few tens of minutes the activities that I do normally.
It's a kind of 'accessory' of the day, exactly how I do the special additions to a card,
possibly adding glitter .
I think that any habit - ritual can be good if it brings us more calm and well-being.
It charges us with a kind of positive energy, the fuel for what follows.
It is said that in order to create a habit, it is necessary to repeat it consistently for a
number of days. How many are these, there are several opinions, but in the end it should
become automatic, completing our program base. Obviously, it is worth forcing ourselves
to have good habits, otherwise why would we waste so much time with sometimes
unpredictable effects?
But I feel the meaning of the word is somehow different from those rituals - habits.
I see it as a moment filled with a magical charge and which triggers an
opening inside us, towards something we are looking for but have not yet discovered.
And when we realize that there is a possibility of having found our desired target,
there are only two possibilities. Either we persevere to reach it or...
But I think that the second option is not worth considering...?

Am citit de multe ori despre ritualul cafelei sau al ceaiului. Si eu folosesc aceasta
idee, doar ca realizez ca aceste ritualuri despre orice vreau eu, seamana
mai mult cu obiceiurile. Acelea ce intersecteaza filmul zilei cu momente de mici
placeri bucuroase, pentru a sparge pret de cateva zeci de minute activitatile pe
care le fac in mod obisnuit. Este un fel de 'accesorizare' a unei zile, exact
cum adaug la o felicitare completari speciale, eventual sclipitoare.
Cred ca orice obicei - ritual poate fi bun daca ne aduce un plus de calm si de bine.
Ne incarca cu un fel de energie pozitiva, combustibilul pentru ceea ce urmeaza.
Se spune ca pentru ati crea un obicei, este necesara repetarea lui consecventa
un numar de zile. Cate sunt acestea, sunt mai multe pareri, insa in final ar trebui
sa devina un automatism, completandu-ne baza noastra de programe.
Evident ca merita sa ne dam silinta ca obiceiurile sa fie bune, ca altfel de ce am
risipi atata timp cu efecte uneori imprevizibile?
Insa sensul cuvantului il simt cumva diferit de acele bucurii obiceiuri - ritualice.
Il vad ca pe un moment plin de o incarcatura magica si care declanseaza in
interiorul nostru o deschidere spre ceva ce cautam dar inca nu am descoperit.
Iar cand constientizam ca exista posibilitatea de a ne fi gasit tinta dorita, nu
exista decat doua posibilitati. Fie perseveram pentru a o ajunge, fie...
Insa cred ca a doua varianta nu merita de luat in considerare...?
