We always end up asking our own selves ‘who am I?’ Doesn’t this question creep out
the natural process of being aware of things with time?
How easily we say I know him/her inside out; we’ve been together for past ten
years now. But we’ve been with ourselves for more than that and yet there are
those moments when we end up doubting the acquaintance. How come getting to know one own self always
end up in dilemma’s? Am I what the world
looks at me as? Or am I what I perceive to be? Is my identity what I look like
or how I feel? Or is it that I am just a wandering soul caught up in this body
to witness and experience this life? Is everything that happens destiny? Are
changes not possible? It appears like we are books, already written, but
learning and knowing more with every page we read, every day we live.
There is a prologue you have about yourself and then there is this review
people have which comes like a clout. That’s the reality, the so called
reality, that same harsh reality. The truth. But it’s not always supposed to be
harsh. No one is evil, it’s just at times sadly magnified in some cases, and
then these people suddenly work on their evil attributes. But then we all,
whether with an evil or a good mask are learners, wandering souls in these bodies
to learn whether consciously or unconsciously. At times life ends for some at
an early age, don’t mourn forever, it was just time for them to wander along
and look for another body another lesson, another teaching.
We end up cribbing about the heavy weight of this world. Weight of failures,
disappointments, hurt, separation, heartbreak, the miseries don’t end. But one
thing can, this heavy weight. How? Cause it’s the hypothetical weight we’re
carrying along everywhere we go, it’s our belief in luckless aspects and our
ability to holding onto everything that hurts too close and keeping the happy
things in distant memories. Drive them close to yourself, they won’t harm.
It all started with the usual query in my head, ’Why I lost the things that
mattered a lot to me?”
Questioned my failures, my loss’s .But just then I realized I can’t be holding
onto my doubts perpetually, I can’t always be looking for answers of questions
which are just the verities of life. Maybe it’s true, how we relate to the
light at the end of the tunnel. When we plan out a vacation, your destiny is
that place, which holds a special place in your heart, its somewhere you’ve
been wanting to go. Maybe it’s a beautiful hill top with a little cozy cottage,
or maybe it’s just the sea side with the cool breeze reviving you, the shells
adding onto that sense of pureness of soul. But it’s not always dreaming, it’s
not always the destiny, it’s the path too. The planning, the do’s and don’ts.
It’s the dark tunnels, it’s the much annoying traffic, the abandoned areas, the
lost times, the frustration.
Why do we get vacationing in between something so intense? Because it almost explains the lessons which
we prefer unlearned. The destiny is the much fanatical desired place where we
want to be. But the path, the troubles, the annoying times, brake downs, the
fortune we end up paying to be there.
Is
it that we buy dreams? No it’s the price you pay to ‘achieve’ them, it’s the
compromises, sacrifices you make; the tears you shed. Whatever miseries took
place, they are a part too of the journey. But aren’t they the one which give
you a chance to smile when you’re there, at your destination. Looking back at
them, don’t they somewhere makes you cherish them too, with an essence of pride
for overcoming them. Let’s face it, these unlucky mishaps are the ones which
made it worthwhile, more adventurous. An easy journey is not the best, it won’t
make you realize the true value of the dream you’ve wanted to achieve.
So let’s end with a little exercise, breathe in, breathe out, repeat; and now
shoot like that pretty star in the dark night sky cause you know you’d make it.
There’s always light at then of the tunnel.
