Life n its Lessons

To Catch a Star one must be a dreamer .. i am just a realist

With time i have come to realize … when you argue with reality no matter how you look at it .. you will always lose at the end….Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead….

There is no way to define a righteous path in life … But there is always a way to define your own path ..

So whatever floats your boat .. Reality floats mine

Somethings you like to do … Somethings you have to do…

Its a situation everyone of us deals with in everyday life .. Some resist the temptation or desire while some give into the temptation or desire.

i mean sure i would like to get a nice log cabin in the swiss alps … But then i still have duties towards my family which i need to fulfill

Sure i would like to save a ton for a rainy day and my future .. But then i also want a pimped up ride ….

Sure i want to date that hot chic who keeps asking me out ? But then i also need some substance in an individual …

Such are the choices in life … No harm to give in to temptation or desire so long as it doesn’t kill you or leave your life in shackles.. Each situation has two choices .. Somethings you like to do .. and Something you have to do

The Difference between “like” and “have” is as wide as logical and illogical or responsible or irresponsible … its just that the words “like” and “have” are conventional words used in everyday conversations that we as humans tend to forget… The meaning of words can change in context of a sentence…

Realization ?

Maybe … Maybe not … Thinking of ending this here … but my thoughts lead on …

The day one realizes on what ground he or she stands on … maybe he or she would be able to navigate thru this mine field with smarter moves and a healthy balance which may not give you a big smile in life … but would definitely let life pass by with a sense of contentment and end with a sense of self satisfactory achievement.

Why only contentment ? Well as a wise man once thought me to always use a conservative approach in life and so far it works just perfect

The Good Life starts .. When you stop wanting to have a better one

Ever since i got back to mumbai … i have had plenty of time to watch life in and around me with a fine eye.

I see new dreams go up all around me and i see dreams turning into expectations or obsessions. I see dreams go bust and dreams getting fulfilled.

People Float new dreams at every juncture of life. What i never see is patience and perseverance.. Very seldom have i come across an individual who is a dreamer but yet is constrained by reality of life.

Dreams afloat on an impatient world

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a Rupee 500 note.
In the room of 200, he asked, “Who would like this Rupee 500 note?”
Hands started going up. He said, “I am going to give this note to one of you but first let me do this.” He proceeded to crumple the note up.

He then asked, “Who still wants it?”
Still the hands were up in the air. Well,” he replied, “What if I do this?” And he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. “Now who still wants it?”
Still the hands went into the air.
“My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.
No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did
not decrease in value. It was still worth Rupee 500/-.
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.
We feel as though we are worthless.
But no matter what has happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value.

You are special. Don’t ever forget it! Never let yesterday’s disappointments overshadow tomorrow’s dreams.

For the longest of times … Ever since i have started exploring life. It only existing for me in 2 forms Black or White Right or Wrong….. 12 Years of black n white sure does make life pretty boring

Then one fine day i met someone who’s entire life seemed to be Grey. …its funny i had never come across an individual with such a pattern ever…. It intrigued me as i grew closer to this grey individual..

As i stood there and observed over the months. This person had never differentiated between right or wrong black or white.. Always did what brought happiness and joy in each moment they lived.

A birth right of every individual is that he or she deserves to be happy in whatever way they choose to. Its an individuals sole choice irrespective of judgments made by other individuals in the society or the society as a whole

Under the general norm of the society we live in this individual would be considered an outlaw by all standards

As we grew closer day after day .. conversation after conversation i realized how wrong i had been all my life…Life is not all black and white… Its Black White and Grey

And its ok to have a few grey patches here and there. Life is gift which needs to be lived to the full.. It cannot be lived by a rule book…Although there always have to be some underlying principles which surround your life…

What these principles are again an individual choice ..

The ability for an individual to accept see and realize there are grey areas in life … is something most people don’t come to terms with all their lifes …However i was fortunate enough to be thought this lesson in life by a little lost child …

Dream On Dreamer .. Dream On .. so what if its grey …
