Towards the End or Eternity ????

Old or young, we are all on our last cruise,and that is life.but still we all,sometimes try to run away from the fact or may be sometimes we get confused about the very common facts of life as a journey.becoz we all r yet to go through more of experiences of life with time.i don't think there can be any other type of people who ignore the facts of life intensnally ,than misunderstanding them.we do feel down now and then ..yup it's true ....as we are not strong enough to control our feeling sometimes....

even sometimes i Don’t know whom to trust .....
Everyone feels so far away from me Heavy thoughts shift through dust
And the lies ....no surprise ....

....Trying not to break ....

But it happens oftenly that people say" I’m so tired of this deceit
Every time I try to make myself get back up on my feet and something strange happens...."

but but whenever it comes to me,all i ever think about is ...
"Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain
tear drops laughter, pleasure and pain
there may be dark clouds
but one thing is true
no cloud is so dark
that the sun can't shine through."


You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have really lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.love is the only thing we should carry with us when we go,it makes the end so easy.
there is LOve of course .Love is the lamp that lights the universe,without that
light.....the earth is a barren promontory and man the quitessence of dust.and there's life,its enemy.no matter how strange it sounds...but this the fact i find in my life.
Do you want to know a good way to fall in love? just associate with all your pleasant experiences with someone,and disasssociate from all the unpleasant ones.but the pillars of love, that is Understanding,faith and sacrifice are equally needed to be understood before getting into it....what is understanding?... come to me......tell me who you love, and I'll tell you who you are.this what i mean by understanding..about faith??..Whatever you believe with feeling becomes your reality.can be your dreams, can be your love for anything.....sacrifice ??...count on what have you done for those whom you loved the most, keeping aside the expections even you are getting nothing or may be a crown of thrones in return.
when all these three combines,gives rise to commitment towards love.
but all these colours are to be arranged in some ways to have a great portray of everlasting love on life's canvas.but before that we need to see if the life allows us to carry on with it or not.
but other than love there are many important things are to be appriciated in one's life.let us see what i find about those.
Life is like riding a bicycle,you don't fall unless you stop peddling.The good life is one inspired by life and guided by knowledge.there is wonderful mythical law of nature that the three things we crave most in life---Happiness,Freedom and Peace of mind----are always attained by giving them to someone else.we come into this world head first and go out feet first;in between it is all a matter of balance.
If you always put limits on everthing you do ,physical or anything else.It will spread into your work and into your life.There are no limits.There are only plateaus , and you must not stay there, you must go beyond those.Limitations live only in our minds. But if we use our imaginations,our possibilities become limitless.
believe is what we lag in times.Our Lord has written the promise of resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime.God is the friend of silence. Trees,flowers, grass grow in silence. see the stars, moon,and the Sun ,they move in silence.but he is with us always...it is just a matter of realizing it.
Learn something new every single day.You will never get old if you do so.a thorne of failure has a small point but the person who feels it doesn't forget its sting.but you should be having a realization that When it is dark enough, only then you can see the stars.Each difficult moment has the potential to open our eyes and open our heart.so do not fear the winds of adversity, Remember that a kite rises against the wind rather than with it.
You are the person who has to decide. Whether you'll do it or toss it aside; you are the person who makes up your mind. Whether you'll lead or will linger behind. Whether you'll try for the goal that's afar. Or just be contented to stay where you are.upcoming tomorrow is the most important thing in life, Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.

Determination, patience and courage are the only things needed to improve any situation in life.
always say to youself"Every day, in every way, I am getting better and better."
One of the greatest moments in anybody's developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is.
yup few more things are also existing on the platform of reality which do provide essence to our life,...... truth ,satisfaction and confidence.
there are moments of truth in everyone's life which try to bring out the hero,the fighter hidden inside,which in turn gives us the satisfaction and confidence on what we are upto and what we are doing.
A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.it is the finest gift you can give anyone is encouragement.Yet,almost no one gets the Encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone recieved the encouragement they need to grow,the genius in all would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond the wildest dreams.we would have more than one Einstein,Edison,Mother Teresa,Dr.salk and other great minds in a century.Give every person your ear,but to few your voice.Take each person's censure, but reserve your judgment.may be only these realizations can help us all in achieving Eternity.

always remember .....Eternity is not something that begins after your death.IT is going on all the time. we are in it now and always should be.

Luv u all

LIFE-----An Effort(Zindagi...Ek Koshish,Ek Sangharsh)

hello everbody!!!!
2day i'm here to drag your focus on one more prospect of life as i did earlier..........and i personally believe that this prospect is related to each one to some extent ,somehow. Life is limitless as the sky but i'm trying here to define life through one of it's prospect.
as we do encounter challenges in life with time it is not overweening to say that sometimes it's good to have challenges in life to relish it's essence.
We are built to conquer environment, solve problems, achieve goals, and we find no real satisfaction or happiness in life without obstacles to conquer and goals to achieve.
that is why it's a common saying that "Trouble is only opportunity in work clothes".
to understand life we need to accept certain facts like We cannot truly face life until we face the fact that it will be taken away from us.
What a man really wants is creative challenge with sufficient skills to bring him within the reach of success so that he may have the expanding joy of achievements.
but it is equally important to hold yourselves during troubles and need to know what really we want in life and for eternal existence.
and that brings the great concept called "Effort".it's very true that life is an effort.
some people feels like why do we need continuous growth and efforts when everything is going right at the moment .why do we need to put more efforts when we are having everything with us?
it is always easy to avoid troubles by opting the easy ways...but what i feel personally is life is not a stagnant system......but a pretty Dynamic system.for those i like to say that It's easier to go down a hill than up it but the view is much better at the top.it is always easy to avoid troubles by opting the easy ways.... but for those who have decided to move on continuously ,make sky your limit....and once you are decided.....It's the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance and sweeps away all obstacles.
Men who are resolved to find a way for themselves will always find opportunities enough; and if they do not find them, they will make them and this is what i believed in.Nobody's a natural. You work hard to get good and then work hard to get better.
Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all.

No horse gets anywhere until he is harnessed. No stream or gas drives anything until it is confined .No Niagara is ever turned into light and power until it is tunneled. No life ever grows great until it is focused, dedicated & disciplined.

"More powerful than the will to win is the courage to begin".

Chance favors only the prepared minds.Choose always the way that seems the best, however rough it may be. Custom will soon render it easy and agreeable.Decide what you want, decide what you are willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work.because life has got no time to think for or wait for something to happen by itself.Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days...What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it.even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there. so it's time for us to grab the maximum from the immutable and dynamic nature of life.
i have seen people saying i don't know what to do next in life??...what am i capable of??....i don't have anything to start with????....no body is there with me to help me out.......
and i always replied back saying.....oppurtunity is not something we acquire. It is something we tune into.Life is a field of unlimited possibilities and we just need the right steps to start.
when your still alive....try to feel like one....try to realise and speak like alive one....Some desire is always necessary to keep life in motion.struggles and downs are always there, not to stop you from dreaming about something but to dream and try hard for that.
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life but as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
definitely humans are bounded at some end with their emotions ........i accept that we get hurt in times.......this would have happen that Someone may have stolen your dream when it was young and fresh and you were innocent and anger is natural, Grief is appropriate in human nature in such situations but also remember that Healing is mandatory, Restoration is always possible.

i have seen many people cave in to emotional drains, offering the popular excuse that "they just can't help it." It's time now that we learn both how and why to "help it" — or at least become open to the fact that we can.
The degree of one's emotion varies inversely with one's knowledge of the facts -- the less you know the hotter you get.

There are moments in life, when the heart is so full of emotion That if by chance it be shaken, or into its depths like a pebble Drops some careless word, it overflows, and its secret, Spilt on the ground like water, can never be gathered back together again.
So this is the time for us to think , Explore & know ourselves,to look up for a meaning of one's life and to fulfill dreams and desires to achieve satisfaction and eternity.

and before i end,i would like to add few more lines to summaries my sayings that

"the guys who are really controlling their emotions and dreams ... are going to win."

May the Almighty help you all in living each day of your life girdled with some meaning.





"Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death."

luv ya all

Vulture

It is a very common saying that no body is far and above the "Time".It has seen the creation and begining of all.It has seen the end of all.no wonder that in this whole creation ,nobody is as experienced as Time.it has seen the life begining and ending and fighting througout for it's existence.
Time never stops for anyone and neither it favours any life by any chance.it just goes on with it's ceasless pace and it is the life,the dreams & the desires of us which always have to clasp with the time to move on ahead.

....you must be inquisitive by now that why am i saying all the known facts? .....

i know that everyone of you know these since long ago but ,still i want it to recapitulate along with you in a way to find the forgotten and unnoticed flexures of life. there are always few inescapable moments in everone's life when we have to insurrect against the Time.sometimes it happens like the life wins and sometime the Time.
but today i'm here to share one of my experience of that nonce of time which left me with a great confusion. ...to whom the nonce belongs...the Life,the Death or the Time??.....
that moment came in my life when i was in 8th standard.........i started my day in a usual way....and was unaware of the upcoming event which would compell me to think about myself for the first time. after spending almost the whole day in the school. we were waiting desperately for the final bell to ring so that we could got to home as soon as poosible.
but before it could happen, we got the news of a train accident due to collapse of a bridge near the local station. we heard many people from the town ,rushing towards the site and after the final bell i along with my friends rushed to the site in curiousness.

till i was on my way ,i never thougth that it would have such an impact on my way of thinking.but after we reached there....i got acquainted with first ever feeling of solicitude in my life.the scene was awful.
the moment was atrocious. there were bodies of dead lying all around . atleast 50-60 were dead .rescue works had been started by now. many bodies were floating over the river surface,many were stuck at the periphery....at few places in between the rocks..the colour of the river had changed to red making a pool of blood .
local people had already started helping the rescue teams.....giving there all to save life of 100s....like bringing forward an example of great symbiosis existing in humanity.
i was happy for those who could be saved in time and was praying for those who lost their life in that moment. i found myself unable to withstand the nonce and i turned back to go back home....but the moment i turned back my eyes got stuck to some unusual events around the site.
i saw many people busy in making a collection of valuable and pricey things lying around.they were just as cool as nothing had happened and it was like a great oppurtunity for them to gather whatever they could ,in that period.
they were looting not even sparing the dead bodies.
it was the first ever moment for me to turn up with the question ...."What R we?"...where do we stand in today's civilized world?".......their gesture was so unusual that for a moment i got confused about my existence as a human...."is it really great to be a human ? "...have we reached the phase of the civilization ,when we all can together proudly say that we are the greatest creation of the Almighty in time.
If not...what are we presently???....i was busy in thinking about that.... i heard Vultures all over the site looking for their eventuality.i looked at the people once again and i got my answer that where do we stand now.
may be Vultures had gone more civilized for the moment than us,hunting for food only...but what were we looting for?.....


......"what makes humans such a marauder?"............
sometimes we do forget that we are the most superior form of life created by God...but everytime we do prove through our gestures that we do forget .

i came back home and had a look into the mirror....and realized that when we look into the mirrors,we only see the effects of our times on us but not our effect on others......yes...our deeds and views do have an effect on others...i felt like that is the point we all should realize before it is too late for us to be humans.

it is not always easy to bring changes in mass....for that we need people with visions.....
we need visions to change the world......and whenever there were people with the power of vision in time ......the time had to bow down before them...and we saw the changes coming up ......and yes.... it is fact that throughout the centuries there were men who took first step,down the roads and new ways,armed with nothing but their own vision to bring up revolutionary changes towards Humanity.

standing in front of the same mirror i asked Time....u have such a great expericnce of those changes.....i'm still confused about the nonce belonging to whom?...to the Life being saved or to the Death where we went Vultures?
the time replied to me "it goes to me as both experince and throb".....and "not to Life or to Death".
Time said further..."i'll keep it with me till the end to share with all humans in future as a experience and a throb."
i asked again..."what could i do to be a human....and make all of them acquaint with Humanity?"...
The Time replied back to me " I have seen God saying ,"Let there be Light" at the time of creation"
....and i got my answer......now what i believe is that the time has come for all of us to stand together and do pray seeking Humanity all around.

i end up saying, "Let there be more Light".

my prayers are always with you people.

love u all

A Usual Day


It was a usual day with a usual beginning, with the shining Sun once again rising from the Horizon, spilling the colours of life over the endless sky, but letting my heart to acquaint with unusual feelings. I was having a look at the event just like I do, sitting near the window, thinking about the expectations related to the upcoming day. I started thinking that “A Day”……does it only mean the rising and setting of the Sun? Do dawn and dusk only worth the meaning to a day? May be for many …may be for all…but not for me….and I felt like having a look for the reasons for my thinking.
I started searching the meaning of life from the deep inside of my heart to the infinite sky above, bounded by the feelings and the eternity at the respective ends.
By the time, I felt a breeze started blowing over my face, filling the surrounding with a new sense of realization. In a flash, the time took me back to the last night. The last night was contained with much of loneliness in it and I desperately needed someone to talk to me. it could be called the worst day ever i had .I tried to call a friend but was not fortunate enough to get the connection and I left trying expecting to make a call the very next day…
The thoughts of last night made me realize that each new day is an expectation of the latest night. And that moment I realized the fact that our existence not merely starts with our birth but with the expectations and dreams, much before we come to live.
The expectations and the dreams of our parents, relatives, and all those who cares for us. The expectation of the society, the nation, the world from us…..that we all achieve something in life and contribute our bests towards the betterment of humanity.
It is their dreams and expectations which give us a beginning to our existence and not our physical entrance to the world through birth.

The moment I got the meaning of beginning, I got more confused about the end. Is death the end of our existence? ........perhaps not…..atleast not the way I see my existence.
What I believe that we all may exist after death and we do.
We do exist in the memories of our beloved ones, we do live through our deeds and contributions to life. The life is not about when we exit the world and it’s not worthy how much we live but the way we live the life for an eternal existence.

when I was busy in thinking that, wind started to blow around and I saw black clouds trying to engulf the environment within it’s darkness, blocking the sun completely, leaving the sun helpless to penetrate through itself.
It started raining heavily and I saw the heaviest shower of my life ever. The worst night and the worst rain were coinciding somewhere and pretty soon I got the answer.
Sometimes the time blows like wind bringing in lots of downs and falls like dark clouds in our life, testing our abilities and strength to withstand it’s shocks.
It is useless to count the time in seconds rather I feel time should be counted by throbs and experiences of life, and with each throbs we must grow stronger to exist.
I waited for sometime and after a while the rain stopped….few loose clouds were left and were blowing away by the same wind towards the west…..I saw the silver line behind the moving clouds which gave me the Hope that I would be able to see the sun shine again .
It happened the way I expected.
I saw the day fighting once again to regain it’s existence and charm after the heavy shower, setting an example of never giving up. Even the sun was compelled to pour it’s blessings once again on the day. The wind was once again replaced by the adoring breeze as if it wants us to learn the basics of living a life. We do encounter ups and downs with time , but strength is what which keeps us firm on our ways to achieve immortality or in better words existence. it is not always simple to live with the certain situations in life. But it’s not the breaths but the attitude which keeps us alive.

Having another day of life is different from living another day.
It would be an achievement for us if we live all the days of our life.

The day passed away withstanding many of good and bad experiences. It’s almost the time for the day and me to say goodbye to each other. it started loosing it’s intensity and before I could bid a goodbye to the leaving day….it turned back again to face me for the last time and waved to me by spilling the colours of life once again over the endless sky……..as if it is asking me to follow the sun.

I looked at the beautiful sun setting down the Horizon…I saw the sun exiting the world but making it’s existence forever and I realized may be this is the destiny I should have to achieve an existence in eternity, an existence in this world……..and then………..

……. I took my first step towards the destination….. towards the Horizon……..

VENTURE INTO MY PAST


Walking down an old lane
which donned an air of familiarity with
lush green bushes and trodden leaves
covering up the tattered lane,
the sun struggling its way to earth
and tall trees spreading their arms
as though shadowing my way
on a welcome note to greet my return

The moon shying away in the sunshine
the morning dew wetting the leaves
the fragrance of the moist soil
the mist, mystifying me as ever
the haze lurking over the lake
the chirping of birds echoing in my ears
like it always used to, when I was a kid

A couple of decades earlier, I used to walk
along this lane, on my way to kindergarten
accompanying me always was my best friend
with her, I used to sit in the class
with her, I shared every secret of mine
with her, I loved to spend all my time
wherever destiny might have lead us
we had vowed never to part ways

But as fate had in store, I was to leave
and she was to stay, but binding us were,
numerous childhood memories, never to be
eroded away inspite of the passage of time
and a bond impregnable by the distance between us
Succumbing to circumstances, she vowed
to wait in anticipation, until death summoned her
and to this day those words resound in my mind

Walking down the lane further I saw
a shell was peeping from a tiny crevice
with a marked familiarity on its face
and with a flash I went back in time
when we had hidden to mark our parting
I slipped it into my pocket, collecting miniscule
reminiscences lying dispersed all over there

feeling heavy, boged down by their weight
I drop down to take seat beside the lake
gazing at the sky, I saw moisture-laden clouds
overwhelm the dazzling sun, roaring in anguish
flowers drooping and grayness setting in
a droplet trickled down my cheek into the lake
and the clouds burst into tears
I saw rainwater and my tears amalgamate
no more distinguishable, losing their identity
I felt Mother Nature weeping with me
.
Inspired by an illusion for a couple of decades
I had built castles in the air, hoping we shall unite
and prove our eternal love to this world of mortals
but she never fell prey to such illusions
and she chose to move on along with life
and thus the bond between us bowed down
to the enormous might of geographical distances
It was until now that I had failed to realise
that I strived to keep our dream alive
all these years single-handedly

Fables of love since times immemorial
have known lovers meet in heaven even after death
I too presumed I was enroute to create a fable
knowing not that fables are fictitious tales
narrated by priests and monks to preach love
and then it dawned upon me that
legends of heroes are to be remembered
but fables of love never come true.

-MAXIMUS

HOPE, LIFE AND LOVE


Hope, Life and Love,
Three things that I must know,
Ere I set sail, midst the storms and gales,
The wind at my back must blow.


Hope is always guiding me,
It lets me know my way,
Ere I can do right, It must be bright,
To Live each chosen day.


Life comes from God,
The Father, The Son and The Dove,
To live each day, there must be a way,
To find each other's Love.


Love is a gift freely given,
It lets us forget that rope,
The skies are blue, so this must be true,
Love is what gives us Hope.


Hope, Life, and Love,
Three things that must come together,
In each of our souls, They're what makes us whole,
They're intertwined in our souls forever.
