Life is a Maze

Philosophy of life

Each one of us has a different philosophy in life. Each one of us has a different way of living life and each one has a different story to tell. My story is about a simple philosophy of life. A philosophy under whose infulence we all live holding on the desire of a better future. We all have our regrets and we all have our accomplishments. What is the difference in this world of homogeneus beings. The difference is about outlook, about the way you look at life. Not each one of us is blessed with a perfect life. But we have variations of people and their reactions in this regards.Some smile seeing rain, some hate the the gloomy weather, some are indifferent. So what really makes us all so different.

Lets talk about war heros. Soldiers who give their best and they die for the country. They are trained under discipline. Why is discipline so important in life. Why do we need to have a few set structures in life? The answer is not always easy and we can intepret it in different ways. But why are they called heros. The very fact that at the time of danger and peril they are taught never to give up. They are the toughest when times are rough. Its physical and mental fortitude that always keeps them going. Such people are real champions. This is what sets a champion apart. He is strongest when the time is toughest. He fights back and wether you win or not there is always a lesson to learn from every situation. The lesson you need to keep.

We complicate our lives. Simply by changing our outlook we can change so much about ourselves. Simply because a child believes he is not good at studying he give up on ever topping the class. he may have the potential but he will never know it bacuse he never tried. Each one of us needs BOOSTERS in life. Boosters that keep us going for good. These boosters keep our morale alive and they bring us up when we are down. They are our friends and family. Not one person will be there who will not have a few true Wellwishers. They are the particles that provide energy and in return boost our energy many times.

I now wanted to classify people in accordance to their outlook of life. Some people have an attitude that they will get upset over eveything. They are cry and crib attitude. They find mistakes in each and every thing. Every small thing from the maid not coming in time, to the exams that have not even come yet. They are habitutated to worrying. But does that worrying helps. It never has helped anyone it will not help them. It is difficult for these people to change their outlook. They wont overnight become people who will stop thinking and worrying.

Then there are people with a can-can attitude. Things may not be going right but they will always have the right attitude to stay clam. To be reasonable. To be assured that after a bad day a good one will follow. Such people will not take each issue and cry over it. They keep moving on.

Then there are people who are the champions. They enjoy the good days. If they have a bad day only they will know. They have a super win attitide. They are non givers. They seek somthing good in each situation so that they can move on happily. When the times are toughest, they are the strongest.

I would like to add a story here. There was a scientist who got a little fish. He kept her in a big glass jar with a few things to entertain her. She was very happy in her small world and used to love all the little things there. Slowly as time went by she became more attached to the things. Then there came the day when she had become too big for the jar and the scientist had to shift her to a bigger one. This was a huge cemented pool. It had other fishes like her in it too. Though there were many more things here the fish oculs not take her mind off the old jar.

But slowly as time went by she made more friends. She began to love this big pool and it became her pool of life. This was her world, a place she called her own. She knew all the places here and all loved her. Lots of fishes came and went but she was there. Sometimes she was happy to see more fishes come in and sometimes sad at seeing them go. As time went she became bigger. Then there came a day when the scientist decided that she was too big for pool. He decided to leave her in the ocean and she was full grown. The day she had to leave the pool she was devasted. She kept cursing the scientist for playing a joke on her. First he moved her from the small place to this pool. When she began to love it and accept it he took that alsoaway from her. She felt everything futile and unnecessary. Then as the scientist left her in the ocean. A new spirit sprang into her. She saw the vastness and the wonderful beauty of the ocean. She was spellbound. She saw that there were many different colours and different creatures other than here there. All of a sudden she knew why the scientist had left here. She felt comforted and felt bad at having been so upset. She then began to expolre the unlimited opportunities of the ocean. Again her life was changed for the better.

Here the scientist is God. he knows what is best for us. Had the big fish stayed in the small pool. After some tme she would have been upset. God knew that. Seeing that he transffered her to the ocean. God transfers us to different places and situations to safeguard us. Simply because we cannot see our good we become upset. God gives us an opportunity and we do not use it or deny to see it because we dont want to leave our built world. This built world had to break one day. Life is all about moving on with a positive attiude and open approach. A person having these qualities does not miss the opportunities given.

SO the best thing to do in life is to have a positive outlook and be strong. Trust yourself because there is a vast ocean before you to be in with infinite possibilities.

MY Life

My life is yet not completed....

I have miles to go before I can rest.....

There are lot of promises also to be kept....

I have seen much in my life

And yet there is so much I can never describe....

These emotions are but my own.....

And yet I feel alone....

I come back each day to a place called home...

And yet i feel alone....

I have stars to look up to.....

Not many people here.....

I have had silent nights.....

Spent awake lying with a tear.....

I have had my share of joy too....

Which lasted only this long...

I was abandoned even before I was born...

I look at myself now.....

A string young Boy that I am.....

And yet the tenderness inside is still soft....

Like a bud about to burst......

One day I will rise and show....

Someday I will grow....

And that someday has finally come.....

So now its time for me to run...

BY---Shweta Virmani(Amy Fera)

I wish words would hold a different meaning and dreams not colour themselves to what you desire.Like a bird not wanting to be caged you wish to fly and yet you are bound by some old memories....which you need to let go.

Lingering Moments

Words seem like a distant whisper...and life moves on.

With tired eyes I look around

The world looks like a vast desert land....

With nothing in it but sand....

You gather a lot...and it escapes from you very hand....

You move in eternity....

And yet there is nothing you can do......

Probably it wonders who the hell are you

Your tears are but a waste....

Its not defeat that you always taste.....

So stop running now....and grap the true treasures of life...

Coz they are always belssings in disguise

For this world is nothing but an illsuion on this desert sand......

And in the end you will be left with nothing in your hand....

You can stay up all night and keep watching the stars...

You can wait for the horizon...

Or see the sky grow overcast...

The only reality is ...that everything will change...

So what are you waiting for.......why do you stammer...

I am there to help you...

Lend your hand....and I will make your come through.....

I look for familiar faces and yet there is no one I know...

I look for shelter....well there is no place for me to go....

I stand under the stars and find some peace in it....

This earth is my mother and I have to be in it.....

I have ran and ran...and what did I get in the end...

I was tired and exhausted...with nothing to hold on.......

I could not remember what I had forgone....

I was not what I had become...

And then came the light...which took me beyond...

And now I know life Always...always ...always....

Moves on......on and on....

There are always lessons to learn....

Always memories to keep you going on....

Some people to make you feel strong....

But Coz of you I know life always ....always always goes on and on.....

I will move with it...Coz there is so much to explore...

Lots of nights I have wasted on stupid woes.....

I just want to take your hand and glide past....

This slumber.....

This Present Past......which needs to be left behind....

Coz then only true joy and happiness I can find....

You are the angel...you are precious...

You are the beacon.....of my soul.....

Coz of you I know....Life never stands stilll....

It will always always go on....

Like the changing seasons....and the weather....

It is varied and never cluttered.....

It changes like the soft breeze....

But this is what reality it breathes....

LIFE--" I will always and always go on....

I pick you with me....and together we fly...

Soon with me you too will reach new skies...."

Stars Shine Down

when the stars have no mercy on the sky

And they hide behind the clouds

And when the sky takes revenge

and Shoots them down...

Falling they become wishing stars

And are lost just like the wishes.....

I look up at them each night

Trying to find a familiar face.....

I find nothing there....

Just them glittering with grace.....

They say the sould of whome you love are there

And yet I never see any star ever smile back at me.

There is nothing there that I ever see....

Someone who belongs to me...

I lay restless at night...

Not wanting to be awake....

But not a wink my eyes will ever take....

There is only stilness and quiet..

To tell me how lonely I am.....

I have wished for nights to last forever....

But let this one go....

So tomorrow when i rise I am all fresh....

And ready to go....and i do know....

Life is a continious flow.....

And your boat only you have to row...

and no one has a right to feel this low....

So let your smile..forever......show.
