LiFe is a journey, not a destination!!!



Well I am not a philosopher & not a priest & not a writer, & millions of people have already written too much on life so there's no point adding a drop of water to the ocean...but would just like to write a few lines that I have experienced in life.

For me this age is too short a span for experience, in fact it's just the beginning of my journey in the real world. There is too much to come in life. I have to cross the ocean & I am just at the shore as of now. However there is this 1 thing I have learned ( till now). No matter how difficult a situation is or no matter how worst of the situations we are in; at the end, we overcome it triumphantly.

I heard this somewhere - ' Good times give us a lot of happiness, but there is this one bad thing about good times, it ends. Similarly, bad times give us a lot of pains but one good thing about the bad times is that even it ends.' This is so true. All we need to have is a little patience, confidence, hope, courage, strength & the most important thing 'FAITH'.

'Have Faith in your Faith'----> One of the best lines I have ever come across. If you believe you can do something or you can't do something; in either case you are right.

God has already planned our life & HE has already written a beautiful future for us, all we need to do is, Trust him today. I know I have miles to go but till now even I have been in situations which seemed so impossible that I thought life would never be the same again. But after every dark night there's a beautiful morning. And same was the case with me.

In fact there is no such thing as problems in our life. It's our view about the situation that is the problem. Some people just keep cribbing through out life- Exam tensions, getting a job tension, tensions at job, Family problems, friends & love problems & what not. And in this process we lose the joys of life. Why not look at the brighter side of it??? It might be easier said than done, but we need to do that.

I was jobless for morethan a year after my engineering. Many of my friends were also in the same state & every time we used to meet they used to keep crying for job & all. However I just had 1 thing in mind, when the right time comes, I will get one. I enjoyed that year by doing all things I love. I had faith that I would. Eventually I got one after many tries.

Problems of life are like a snake crossing our legs. If one gets worried, impatient & try to fiddle with it, it might bite us; but if we just stand still & let it pass by, it will cross without harming.

So the bottom line is that life might "APPEAR" difficult ( coz life is not difficult, it just appears to be), we need to face each phase of it with a smile.

Sow the Goals in the Field of Hope!!!!

“What is the thing which is continuously driving you in your life?” I would say HOPE. To achieve any goal or to become successful in life, one needs to have the motivation. The word motivation itself has got the meaning within it. ‘MOTIVE’ means aim or goal. Hence motivation happens only when one is driven towards a motive. The motive or the goal combined with hope ignites the fire within you.

There are some people who have goals but no hope; means they cannot see themselves achieving those goals. There are few others, who have high hopes about the life but no clear goals. Even during my School days, what made me to move ahead was some kind of hope in my life. During my higher secondary school days my teachers and friends used to ask me what I would want to become, for which I never had any answers. I never had any goals. But still I was very sure that I would become something in life. This was a hope. I used to dream myself to achieve something high in my career.... In my dreams I had become a doctor, pilot etc etc etc. I knew that one day I would become someone! A great hope, which kept me dreaming all the time. But there were no goals. Even there was no one to give me proper guidance during those days.Finally I got admission for my engineering graduation. Those period made me learned lot and set a goal to achieve in the career...............

Yes, I could achieve it only because I had a goal. But what gave me the confidence to set such a goal was the hope I was having in my life. The hope that there was something big and great in store for me.

One needs to sow the seeds of GOALS in the field of HOPE to harvest the desired results. Ultimately if destination is clear then path can be found out. Most of the people among us has no clear destination. Hope and idea are the main fertilizers to grow a better dream and reap the success.
