Satshriakaal Mausam,
For some reason the last few days have been an exercise in self reflection and the thought process is still going on; I am on a journey of finding myself. I think when I get involved in day to day activities I tend to get out of touch with myself, I suddenly forget the person I am! and it takes some time for me to remind myself of what my beliefs are and what do I stand for. This latest feeling of self introspection has been triggered by my interaction with a very good friend of my bro. Now I am re-analyzing my public behavior, my thought process and my social responses.
Things which were a taboo when I was 18 became normal when i turned 21, the actions which were a strict no-no became a routine by the time i turned 25 and now I think the next wave of change is happening. I would like to believe that this change has always been positive but only time will tell. I know I still have to work on a lot of things; The stubbornness is still rock solid, I still get too attached with people, I still keep my wounds of the past open.
Off late I have thought a lot about the crazy time that I had between the age of 19 and 23. I have debated with myself a lot about how risky that environment was. I try to convince myself that those experiences were extremely valuable and the learnings of those experiences have been priceless but then I am thoughtless when I think that "would I want let my dear ones go through the same risky experience though I know it was so much valuable for me". I don't know if I will ever find the answer to this question.
Regards,
Ajj Kaim

i am not sure what exactly u talking abt...seems like some valuable relation has given u wounds that couldnt heal by now..sorry that was a vague guess..i know a very vague one..no ideas..
i can just talk abt life in general...We spend our days waiting for the ideal path to appear in front of us. But what we forget is - paths are made by walking, not by waiting. When one door of happiness closes another opens but often we look so long & regretfully upon the closed door that we don’t see the new door which has opened for us!
It is a truth-We never get what we want,
We never want, what we get,
We never have, what we like,
We never like what we have,
Still we live, still we love, still we hope!
Life never seems to be the way we want it, but we can live it best way we can. There is no perfect life, but we can fill it with perfect moments. Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect; it just means that we have started looking beyond the imperfections…
Always keep in mind-Smooth roads never make good drivers; smooth sea never makes good sailors, Clear sky never makes good pilots, problem free life never makes a good person. Successful person is the one who builds a foundation; with the stone which are thrown at him by others. Always have the determination of a mirror, which never loses its ability to reflect in spite of it being broken into pieces…, keep shinning my frnd! When u feel world is rubbing u against rocks, don’t think that u will ruin down to dust…it is just polishing a gem…Mr. Precious! If u desire to blossom like a rose in the garden, u have to learn the art of adjusting with the thorns. Expecting the world to treat u fairly because u r a good person is like expecting- the tiger not to attack u coz u r a vegetarian…silly expectations! Never be sad if someone doesn’t recognize our worth. It’s their loss & our gain, coz people who do not appreciate our true worth don’t deserve to know us!!
What I have realized with time- being a good person is like being a goal keeper…no matter how many goals you save; people will remember only the ones you missed :-(
Still be a clay pot that contains milk than a golden pot that has poison. It’s not our outer glamour but our inner virtues that makes us valuable!
Life is like a cotton don’t make it heavier by sinking in water of sorrows, but make it lighter by letting it in the wind of joy…keep smiling :-)
We live in our dreams but dreams may die, don’t get shattered, and never ever cry.
The world is big & has lots to give. Pick up a new dream & that’s the way to live!!!
