Generally when I start blogging, there is something specific in my head.
After fingering the key board with my insanely rich thoughts, I do my favorite part - "Title the Blog post"
This time I do not have anything particular running on my mind so -
if you don't want to waste next five minutes of your life - Stop reading. Immediately.
My think tank is overloaded and I hate it when i am distracted while creating my masterpiece post so
As the title says it all, it will be As vague as it gets!!!!
It is so so cold here in Gurgaon. I took a rick on my way back home. The rickshaw guy was wearing a long shawl which started to fly as he pulled and caught my attention. It was like being pulled in the rickshaw driven by a death eater. ( In Harry Potter movies) Was weird.
I fell sick due to weather changes and it fevered my whole new outlook on the life.
What I mean to say is, post coming back to Delhi after a good 45 days vacation I made a promise-
Take life in the best possible way you can. Little things can bring greatest of joy.
- Like getting that exact pair of shoes you Always wanted.
- Cooking a dish recipe your way.
- Liking a song so much that it gives you goosebumps every time you hear it.
- Eating milkmaid.
- Accidentally clicking a very good picture and have that "I got photographer sense" feeling.
- Getting a job offer.
- Decorating your Room,
- Being cared
- Organized Work Station
The list is infinite. But while i was feeding items to this list it started to make me Happy and the new outlook of life got revitalized.
This is amazing. How you can be Happy and Sad in the blink of an eye. Happens with all of us.
What differentiates us depends on the amount of time we take to switch from one mode to another.
I read this somewhere. Given average life of 80 years and by the time we become old enough to have weekends. Say aged 24-25 years then we only have 4120 weekends left to ourselves.
( Don't come back for the math in this calculation- Its has a scientific approach behind)
When I thought about all the weekends i already have spent... the remaining got all the more precious.
Just like a doctor saying to a terminally ill patient - "You don't have much time left"
Which is true. Do you think you were born with an 80 year embossing on your forehead ?
We are so busy. Getting college degrees, that "package" Jobs, faking life on weekends and the cycle repeats.
Following the definite set of pattern to achieve what.. yet another patterned life?
Sure you'd make some money in the patterned approach and after years you can buy all the cream with that green.
I find it funny. People cruising in their Jags and Benz down to a posh gymnasium to work out their corrupt tummies. Why not run a mile instead ? First Work for pay and then Pay for work.
It won't be about how much you got. It will always be about How much They got and who did better.
And its a never ending chase.
I wish people can be immune to what other people think or say. It would have been less fake.
Do what you like people. You are educated. You know what's right and wrong.
You don't need suggestion on your life decisions.
If it feels risky and is worth it- Go for it. The end.
It if seems wrong but you have a desire - Go for it and dare to bear the consequences.
You love it - Go for it - No second thoughts.
Whatever you are, whoever you are, you must live up to your potential..
You'll realize while you were busy stacking things for a happy life or accessorizing it....
Happiness was just a smile away !
