Knowing the real Mission of your life
You must have seen a large bottle with
little bottle inside little bottle inside and little bottle inside what I
mean many bottles in one bottle and then one last a very tiny one. If you
look at our life it is very similar, a life inside life inside life inside
life and many layers of life inside. Even though you may not believe we live
many life times in one single life. Many lives in one single life.
We train, educate ourselves, work very hard and experience a great variety
of changes. We accumulate a great pile of things but we still want more and
more.
We want
to have all the toys even though we can't even open the packaging of the
previous ones. Preparing a quarter of life to become able to buy or sell the
objects, yet most of them lifeless. Then a quarter of life to watch or swap
these objects, manage to keep up with them and another quarter of life to
dispose or store them. Do you know why we do all that?
We are trying to make us SUCCEED in life?
A definition of success someone wrote long time ago for his life. We merely
follow someone else's definition of success without even thinking once, if
it really suits us or if we know that if it is REAL success.
We just spend an entire life in buying the whole market and when you really
want to sit back and enjoy; its time to go. Every single object mostly
lifeless stays back and eats dust or becomes second hand.
Does all that accumulation makes you happy?
Likewise simultaneously, by default, we are given a life with predestined family and its branches and after lot of grooming and beatings, we become adults. We start accumulating relationships.
People we meet, befriend, love, hate, discard or drag with. We hardly realize that many of these relations are vital and give encouragement yet there are many that simply eat us away, drain our energy.
Let's review life what to do with things and relationships, which become lifeless, become thorny, soaking life energy. Are you really happy?
Feeling unfulfilled, empty and meaningless?
And one day you realize that you have all the things you need you wanted and despite that you feel not successful.
And you realize the formula and recipe of success you followed for years, was not fit for you after all, never before you sat down and realize what had I been doing so far?
You chased a dream, a want, a desire and after arduous journeys and struggles you did find what you wanted but you found that despite ALL THAT there was something missing. Something was lacking, something unfulfilled, something empty and then the meaninglessness invades mind and you wanted to shout but you kept it all inside and you get kind of depressed. Oh what an awful realization!
You are busy and you don't have any time to listen advices or ideas. You say if I come to drown in these philosophical thoughts how will I live?
So....... you keep going like a battery toy, the routine, the struggle with all this realization, like having a great headache but keeping the Panadol in pocket.
Yet you have forgotten to smile, it feels like you lost juice of
life and you just LIVE, with the hopes that soon, a rainbow shall appear and
you will be in the valley of peace. You do know that something is missing
yet mind is occupied to get the job done, to feed, to continue the struggle.
You were told to be educated, get degrees, be smarter, know it all, look
beautiful, handsome, great, get a job and consume.
Without realizing one day, you find that you have become a consumer, to a
point when you plan to buy some canned happiness, some prepackaged dashing
life style and buy some best brand love in bulk.
Lies, advertising, the subliminal and hidden inspiration to be a good
consumer, be smarter than siblings, friends and neighbors become the goal.
The same consumer society that first makes you fall real ill, get damn sick
and then sell you medical advice, medicines, drugs and an endless chain of
circles.
By now you are upset. So you work real hard to fulfill those
dreams, even though you may not see any meaning behind the dreams or their
required struggles or the realization that dreams were not really yours but
copied out of envy.
Think what you want to achieve, where you want to go, why you want to go and
what are the costs of dreams and goals. Is it more consumption, soul less
cut-throat competitions, true lies and become numb to get to the
destination? Please ask, think and inquire. Let me know what you will
discover...
