CHOTTA MU AUR BADI BAAT Hi friends Well…. This is my first attempt in this section…. After a lot of time thinking upon what to write about I thought of just sharing a piece of article from a newspaper cutting that has been with me 24x7 for the past couple of years. ‘tis smthing about mine urs or anyone elses conversation with GOD wud be like. Today we all are a part of a never ending rat race, everyday is a test. ‘Leisure’ – smthing this generation still has to get an idea about. Peace n time for self is smthing u don’t get know (well thtz what the majority complains bout !!! ) … jab 10th mein aaye mumma ne kaha “bus beta is saal jam ke paddle phir to aaraam hai !!”… dialogue repeated in the 12th std …n now jaise taise college pahunche to ... “beta char saal aur …inhee char saalon mein depend karta hai tumhe kasia job milega n all …….”… farak sirf ab itna hai tht we know tht theres no aaraam henceforth….. we all are a part of a vicious circle aren’t we ? but thn yeh uncertainties , taqleefein , pareshaniyaan to life mein hongi hi…….. yaar warna life mein mazzaa hi kyaa hai … we not only have to live thru all dese but make one hell of a life of it, right ? whatever I ll be doing in my life , there ll be many out dere doing d same thing but wats gonna make me n my life diff is d way m gonna do those things…. I ve always believed tht life s like clouds….. u can make anything out of it n nothing in this world can stop ya. * Hope I made some sense above well if I dint this article surely will … so njoy !!! * AN SMS CHAT THAT CHANGED MY LIFE GOD : Hello!! You called me !! I,Me,Myself : Called you ? No who’s this? G : This is God !! I heard your prayers so thought I ll chat with you. IMM : Sure I pray. Just makes me feel good. Actually, am a bit busy now. In the midst of something you know ! G : What are you busy with? Ants are busy too. IMM : Don’t know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. It’s rush hour all the time. G : Sure! Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it. IMM : But I still cant figure it out. By the way, I wasn’t expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat. G : Well, I wanted to help you resolve your fight for time by giving you some clarity. I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with. IMM : Tell me why life has become so complicated? G : Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated. IMM : Why are we then constantly unhappy? G : Your today is the tomorrow u worried about yesterday. You are worrying because the act of worrying has become a habit. That’s why u r not happy. IMM : But how can we not worry when there’s so much uncertainty? G : Uncertainty is inevitable but worrying is optional. IMM : But then theres so much pain due to uncertainty. G : Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. IMM : If suffering is optional why do only good people always suffer? G : Diamonds cant be polished without friction. Gold can’t be purified without fire. Good people go through trials. With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter. IMM : You mean to say such experience is useful? G : Yes. Experience is a hard teacher though. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards. IMM : But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can’t we be free from problems? G : Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons to Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems. IMM : Frankly in the midst of all these problems we don’t know were we are heading. G : If you look outside you’ll not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight. IMM : Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in right direction. G : Success is relative, quantified by others. Satisfaction is absolute, quantified by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. IMM : Sometimes, I ask, who am I, why am I here? I don’t the answers. G : Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation. IMM : How can I get the best out of life? G : Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. IMM : Sometimes my prayers are not answered. G : There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO. IMM : Thank you for this wonderful chat. I ll try to be less fearful. G : Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. Hoped u all liked it. Personally it has helped me a lot n I wish it does d same for all u folks as well.
