Caught in the middle
Life is so empty around here. So many people around, nice people. People always willing to talk and listen. But I am still alone. Time seems to have stopped. Everything is moving and changing but it seems I am still in this world. The same mundane life, no change. It seems I am living a sequence, repeating itself after every 24 hours. I don’t know what is this. What name I should give to this feeling.
I don’t know why and how I feel this? Nobody is responsible for this, I think not even myself.
Do we have control over our thoughts. Can we direct our heart to feel what our mind thinks. I thought it was possible. But I experience, it is difficult. I know what I want from my life and I want to work for it. But earlier I thought I wanted something else and the things I said then were a reflection of my thoughts then. Who knows what happens in the future but thn too we worry too much abt it. We have to. We cant leave everything to the whims and fancies of fortune and destiny. Everything has a reason. In every realm there need to be an equilibrium. There cant be happiness at all times. You have to accept that change is the only permanent thing in this world.
All your life you have been running. Running to get what u think is desirable. Money, success, fame, glory. Why? Is this the only way to life. Why do you want all this? Just because most of the people in this world look upto it. You play to the gallery, but who doesn’t? But then you always wanted to do something great in this world and u have to be different for this. All great people are different from the lot. Why now you think, the time has come to stop and think. You are not supposed to think, you have to run. IF you don’t run, you risk being left behind.
The world always thought you are made to do big. Big in ur life, means doing big in ur career, being able to affect lives of other people financially and socially. The current mad race takes you to a place where this running never stops. Its similar to what happened to Abimanyu in Mahabharta, he did not know where the Chakraview ends. He died. I am not afraid to run neither I am afraid to die. I have the capability to run but the question is why should I run? Or Should I run?
Are these the only things to achieve in life? Is this a sort of obsession. Who or what has pushed you into this obsession. But very recently, I dreamed of such a life. But there are prices to pay. I still want to have such a life but I am not ready to pay the price but in this world there is no free lunch. And ur asking for free, lunch and dinner;-)
There can be 2 ways of looking at what you are thinking. Being a hardcore optimist, we will first look at the positive side of it.
You were running running and running, you never did pause to think why are you running. Now that you have some little time at your disposal, gradually you have come to realise what you look forward to in your life.
