Some random thoughts popping out of my head

After a long long long..... long hiatus, I'm ready to strike again.... Back without a bang, but with a lot of stuff on my mind.

Every Tom, Dick and Harry on Earth knows the fact that life is not perfect (Except the little kids going about their lives in carefree bliss). But why can't it be close to perfect? Why does everyone have to go through the motions of life with a lot of crap? Why is our life haunted with problems?

Is it to teach us petty humans a lesson, that everything cannot be served to us on a golden platter?
I agree that hardships in our life are the moulds which shape our character and make us who we are... But, why then do hardships have to be so bloody hard?

Relationships in life which are shared by two people have their own share of ups and downs... But, are the downs the end of life? I agree that we do feel extremely helpless when we are faced with the downs in our lives, but should we let these downs come in the way of the ups as well? We all face a lot of turmoil when these downs do occur....

What am I supposed to do then? Cry, sulk and let fate take control of my life? Or should I just slog my ass out and do something to change it? But will that be good enough? Or will it involve the help of the people who have an influence in my life?

If someone you care deeply about is hurt by your actions, you are supposed to change the action. Undoing it is not possible, so not repeating it is said to be the best option. But, that leads me to my next question: Should we, or should we not change ourself, let go of ourself in order to please the people around you.

These questions have been popping in & out all the time. Our future is said to be the consequence of the actions done in our present, so isn't the present action the most important thing in our life. Setting our present well will secure our future.

Nobody said that life will be a straight and smooth highway. Rather it is more like a maze or a network of narrow lanes. Some of them might be smooth, some might not. All the lanes lead to different destinations. It is our call to choose the lane and reach the desired destination using our actions and learning from them as we move along.

  1. In the journey of life it wouldn't matter much in the end where we reached.. but it would certainly mattered how we traveled.. did we stop to smell the roses or sped away in search of the pseudo elusive happiness... Happiness is indeed a state of mind and not a destination...
