Another Milestone...but where's the journey?

Today it's been 23 years since I came on this Earth...pretty tough job...i mean this journey...23 milestones and now when i ask myself where m going, i dont have a clear answer for myself...well, this day was different from my previous birthdays...It was a bit similar like any other day...I had no answers for questions like, so,what special did u do today? or what are your plans for this day?

After all these years, when I look back...all the things that I was proud of were mocking at me...friendships, what I used to call my maturity and my wisdom...everything...

I learnt few words today...CHANGE...nothing is permanent...the only permanent thing is change...we should understand if happiness isnt permanent then neither is sadness...our sorrows come when we think that things are permanent...once we realize their volatilility there is no space for grief and sorrow...take each and every things equally important...coz nothing's is going to stay with you forever...and dont surrender urself to change...change shudnt stop us or saden us but shud give us courage to accept whats new...

PURPOSE...everything's got purpose...everything...its our task to figure that out...the purpose of life is living life with purpose...and our only obligation towards life is to fulfil that purpose...anything that comes between us and our purpose is super fluous and needs to be thrown away...and meanwhile dont forget to stop and see the beauty of PRESENT...DESTINATION isnt important ...but JOURNEY is...three important points to remember throughout life...most important time...NOW...most important person...the person u r dealing with now...most important work...the work u r doing NOW...

PARADOX..life is a paradox...it is a mystery, alright...but no need to waste ur time solving it out...

ANGER...one of the natural emotions...its not bad...to be angry with the right person at right time and to the right degree is very critical...i have learnt today that we just need to hold ourselves few minutes, when anger is rising..that moment is critical...if we can stay calm and controled that initial few moments...we can easily prevent the volcano from errupting...par ye bachcho ka kaam nai hai..it requires great wisdom and patience...after that we can hardly recall for what we were boiling our blood...it feels so gud...and moreover it prevents us from the shame and guilt of the consequence...just be quiet...just silent from inside...recall anything good...swearing can also work...anything...but it works...just prevent that moment when anger is building inside you and rest is automatic...

there are many other things that i learnt in these 2 -3 days...a sort of b'day gift from god?..maybe...well then i'll be sharing them next time...till then let me try my new findings...m not gud at being regular...and regularity and consistency is required to move forward in a journey...its upto me to fill my days with something meaningful...and not be empty like m now...
