Reason to live; Reason to die.


We are not some beings born accidently, live meaninglessly and die purposelessly. Though at times, it might appear so the ultimate truth is not the result of some random calculation. The beginning and end are extremes in which we have practically no say, but, as for living life, it is very much in our hands. There is a meaning making mechanism functioning as a matter of strange coincidence with every form of thinking beings absorbing the feeblest notion of futility from our lives. If we wonder and question the meaninglessness and futility of our existence – where and what were you 200 years ago and where and what will be 200 years down the line? – we might perhaps realize we are basically no different from other living beings. We maybe rational, thinking, progressive, spiritual beings, but at the end of the journey what awaits us? Anyhow, all that we know is that we cling on to our dear life at the slightest sight of danger we face. We don’t know what awaits us, but we don’t want to depart from this world.

Why are we so attached to this world that we find it difficult to part with? We know from our daily life that life is not all rosy; we hardly have a day on which we don’t mummer or complain. In spite of all the hardships and perils, at the thought of death knocking at our door we shudder and make desperate attempts to escape. Is death so crudely, cruelly detesting and disgusting? If life is so precious to offer at the jaws of death, what is the reason to behind it? What is the reason behind our craving to cling on to this life? Is it love; love for people and things? In that case, how have we not changed at all in our pursuit to love our life when we have lost people and things we loved? If it is love alone, we should be less attached and afraid to be ‘reunited’ with our loved ones gone ahead of us when the final call beckons us. if life is not without meaning and purpose, so will death be and vice versa. There is a reason to live; a reason to die.

Incredible past

Incredible past
Incredible. Amazingly incredible is the past. The life we lived – or meant to live—has minutely followed an intelligently prearranged pattern. Major or minor, every action of ours or every incident occurred in our lives is harmoniously, purposely set for a reason and timed in perfection. Life can be lived well, believe in a new beginning, hope for progress, plan for change, derive joy and satisfaction, aspire a better tomorrow looking back at our past. Future in itself doesn’t hold anything. It is devoid of hope – in fact, it is utter hopelessness believing in a future that never exists – happiness and newness. Tomorrow is an illusion, a void, nothingness, non-existence.
What assurance do you have to be comfortable and hopeful that tomorrow will be a better day or even there will be a tomorrow at all? Even hope itself means nothingness in the future, vague and therefore the other side of hope is frightening. Tomorrow never happens, never exists without a today, and today doesn’t dawn without a yesterday – a meaningful, concrete, factual yesterday. From a hopeful, imaginary future, tomorrow, you will never live in the tangible, definite today. A glance over the chronologically arranged happenings in your life from the moment of your conception or even before would shed light to prove this fact and place everything in perspective. Past is life, present is living and future is …hope, mere hope.

Life in our hands

If you had the boon to undo one thing that you did, what would you like to cull out from your past and alter? That would be an impeccable power to live life to the full and feel fulfilled. Many a time, we all wish if we had a magic button or life-changing wand in our hands. A swipe over a missed opportunity, lost chance, a wrongly made decision or blunder, a tragedy or misfortune and you have the last laugh. Don’t you think that’s just amazing? Living an error-free, folly-free, disaster-free life would be heaven on earth. Imagine living a life that’s free of all such hazels! The question however is would you be happy with such a life? If you answered in the affirmative, do you think you strive towards living such a life? If your answer is a creepy ‘no’, well, you perhaps have got a few things going right for you.

By our very nature, the impulse to act as we wish propels us to do things that we might regret later. Be it silly, life threatening or life changing – in fact all our big and small ‘mistakes’ are life changing – you and I tend to showcase either our stupidity or self-importance culminating in some grave mistake. However, make it a point to spare a few moments – or even more – to analyze the mistakes you have committed and the knotty situations you have created. How you look at them ten years down the line? Are you happy that you had tears in your eyes and butterflies in your tummy or do you think it all screwed up your life forever?

Love..!

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love.

One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left.

Except for Love. Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment. When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,”Richness, can you take me with you?” Richness answered, “No, I can’t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you.”

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. “Vanity, please help me!”"I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat,” Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked, “Sadness, let me go with you.”"Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!”

Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, “Come, Love, I will take you.” It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going.

When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realising how much was owed the elder, Love asked Knowledge, another elder, “Who Helped me?”"It was Time,” Knowledge answered.

“Time?” asked Love.
“But why did Time help me?” Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, “Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.”

Hmmmmmmmm

“Hmmmmmmmm” isn’t that life all about? At the end of the day, after having done hundred one thing we realize, we have fallen short. Something more is desired to be done is what evaporates the humor out of life. Despite putting in everything possible to brighten up our life, a glitch in some form surfaces. Unfortunate incidents in various form trickle down on us from time to time.

The line between accomplishment and expectation is very narrow. Not many will have the last laugh after the level expectation has skyrocketed to a dream world. The journey back to the level ground is not trouble-free. However, it is always a different and reviving experience to look back at those incidents and happenings that rocked our life and made us look utterly desperate and hopeless. What are those moments, incidents today? Hmmm the way life plays its game is mystifying.

Come out....

It is a tragedy that most of us get glued to the positions we hold or feel at ease with our own comfortable zones and do nothing more. Stagnant water stinks! Exploring new heights is painstaking, but is surely rewarding. What needs to be taken care of is that we are on the right move and in the right direction. Most of the time we do a lot of things and are rewarded with nothing. And the result? We sulk and succumb to discouragement and disappointment. However, before being hasty to draw a conclusion, we must be prudent enough think twice. Blessings often appear in disguised attire!

Your prison is always your choice. To break free, you have to give up, eliminate all security zones you have built around you. Others can confine our actions but never our thoughts. Free the shackles of your thoughts and let them sore high. We never see difference until we commit ourselves to doing something different. Coming out of the comfortable fort will be a fish-out-of-the-water experience. But, learning new things is no cake walk either. be different and do things differently if you need to see change happening around.
Life is like that.

Good ONE....!

I feel in my heart and in my soul each thing that you say to me. It is something amazing because I think that you always know when I am sad, when I am very happy or when I think of you more than I usually do. Your words show me how much you understand me you love me and how much we are connected to each other even with the distance between us, I realize each time more that we were born to each other.

When I met you for the first time, there was a day that I thought I would forget you forever, but I was wrong because I have still got your face painted on my heart, on my soul, and in my memory. The first time I kissed you, much time has passed, but I still have your kiss burning on my lips and your cologne in all my senses.

Maybe I dream too much but when I think of you I long to feel your touch, to whisper in your ears words that only you would hear if only you were mine. There is love so deep inside of me, my love, and in every part of me there is a part of you. You are everywhere I am and be sure that I will be standing by your side praying that you will always have a beautiful life.

Like a star, you are already the star of my life, my sky, and my ocean. I will always need you because I cannot live without air, without water and without my soul, and you are all this for me. I love you and forever I love you. My body is still wanting to feel you and your hug and I will pray that this day won't come so late, but if it comes late, even this way I will be here for you and only for you. All my kisses to you my love, and dream of me... from a boy lost in love for you.

Love always,


This goes to person only who deserves.
