Do you notice my background? People are running somewhere. Some are about to fall, some pushing others, some want to move ahead others, some want to take rest but can't as others may pull them back, some with some goals, others dawdling aimlessly, some chasing others.... blah blah blah. Each person has its own reason of running or better say not stopping.
We all in similar way keep chasing our dreams, goals, etc in life. When we were kid we use to run after toys, when we grew a little we use to run away from studies ( Don't know about you , but i was fed up of my parents those days they didn't had any sympathy with me either, just cruelly used to send me school that to DAILY ;)), few years later you start running after the opposite sex, gadgets or some passion whichever captures your senses, then to get into a good college , job and it continues. Today also we all are running towards something, may our body seems stagnant but our mind is not.We have become inveterate about this habit of ours.
Did you noticed so many colours were adoring there journey? Trees were passing, hills, some enthralling scenarios may have also passed.Theses colours are the different phases of life or you can say stages of life, .Like, when you got admitted to school for the first time, the first day of your college, the day you met your love-partner, your first job, you got engaged, married, had kids and so on . But we are so intransigent, that we forget enjoying the journey. We keep hassling and pass each stage just like a stair, but our rummage never ends.
Did your remember that famous poem, where the author talks about Reaching "ITHAKA " ?
In that poem the author informs us that yes, we should have a goal where we are destined to reach finally? but it is the journey that enriches us. The trials and tribulations that we suffer during our way to Ithaka in a way our Utopia, that makes us worth it. It ensconces through our journey.The journey is not only about reaching a certain point , its about experiencing the bliss in our life. Our jaunt on this earth should be idyllic and entrenched. It should not be an evanescent experience. Just get drenched in the wave of Present moment and let yourself blossom every moment. Welcome every moment with smile and live it .Forget about the past, drop it. Drop the memories that irks you. Become a fountain of love and peace.
So, lets STOP for a while and see Where are we headed ? Is that worth a chase?, Do we really need it?. If not its time to veer your direction. Let go! what has passed and prepare and plan for the future but live 100% in the present with a serene smile :)
Goodbye!!!
