Often when I go by train, I like to stand by the door enjoying the cool breeze, watching the green grass wave as the train passes, observing fogged mountains and chilled waterfalls they carry. Many thoughts flash in my mind which always I decide to make a note of but never really did it however this time I decided to give it a shot.
We all meet different people everyday with different mind sets different attitudes. Some trying to be happy, some fighting to be happy, some faking to be happy yet seldom of them really happy. It’s not like everyone has really huge problems still no one really satisfied with life. Everyone is so busy finding what they don’t have, they don’t really see what they do posses. I think we ask too much from life before completing our part in the play. In offices we keep complaining about amount of work although that is what we get paid for, in classes we keep complaining about how boring the subjects are although they are the reason we are there, during long tours we keep complaining about how long the road is never really watching the beautiful display of nature. Life is about living the moment. No one can ever be happy if his or her happiness depends on certain sets of conditions like no problems amputee money good degrees and all. To me happiness is something that depends on us .
Who doesn’t have problems? Secret is enjoying the process of solving different problems. As a famous story says happiness is enjoying the world around you while balancing a drop of water in the palm. We can’t change our fate but we can change how the way we face different things. We can be weary and tense or we can be calm and happy it’s us who can make difference not the situation laid by the destiny.
We don’t really “live” life. We need to be happy with what we have as we never know what we have is something others don’t!
One may get false impression from above that I am talking about just being stable and not asking more from life no, everyone should definitely strive for the excellence. I am just saying that don’t get overwhelmed by the problems. Wind and water both flow across the mountain. What wind does is it keeps flowing in his own direction and ends up getting blocked by the mountain. However when water encounters some obstacle it changes its path for a while and keeps flowing, after some years or so the obstacle is no where to be seen. We can be wind we can be water!
Continuing the topic, we do meet some people who like experimenting they do something going off the track they are mad about their goals they are ready to take as many efforts as required and yet they are happy with what they are doing. They may not have lot of money or lot of degrees yet we can feel a sense of joy a sense of achievement as we talk with them. Many call such people to be crazy for me these are the people who really live their life. They can enjoy comforts they can sit down comfortably watching TV however they try new things and enjoy the process. Had the comb decided to enjoy worm healthy comforts inside the bean it would have never gone on to become a giant oak tree. However it breaks the turf, fights with the weather and one day becomes a huge tree.
It’s your own life so do not let any stupid problems ruin it. Enjoy every moment and live your dreams. Do not care about what people say be faithful to your heart. In difficult moments behave like the water and don’t just sit down enjoying comforts of bean but break the turf and enjoy the adventures.
