Life is quite a complex concept to understand. I read a funny statement somewhere that “Life is NP hard”. You may not understand this if you have not studied algorithms. No matter how complex but Life is surely an amazing design. I just returned home last week after completing my college. I was in the train when suddenly the train stopped at a place near hardoi which wasn’t a proper station but the track was surrounded by mustard fields. With Indian Railways you can always expect some random stoppages. During the five minute halt I saw some kids running through the fields, trying to catch a butterfly. The scene was symbolic of Life’s amazing design.
Sometimes I wonder about the diversity of prospects life has to offer as we walk along the vague path of our dreams. The design is so amazing, we travel distances to reach new places just to fulfill our strange wants. I use the word “strange” here because most of don’t even have a clear idea of our wants. Do you have a clear idea of your destination? Just think about it… Even if we decide to be content with what we have, our heart doesn’t listen to our commands. It is one mulish organ in our body which beats on its own without your control on it. It beats for our hope, our wishes, and our life. Even the simplest of things in life have a complex phenomenon associated with it. For instance your sleep, everyone requires sleep so that the machinery (human body) could work properly. You don’t need to dream at night but still you do. I don’t know why your heart and mind decorate your nights with innumerable dreams. Maybe, because dreams have a wish hidden in them. Ask your heart what that wish is? Is it easy or difficult to fulfill that wish…alas your heart doesn’t care. All your heart wants is for you to touch the sky and catch the stars. Not one or two, it wants them all. In your karmic quest, where you go on from a place to another with dreams in your eyes, you must be very careful. Don’t complain if you fumble and fall at a place and the dreams in your eyes are shattered and pieces come out of your eyes in the form of tears. You can’t stop. Even if you fall down, life is about getting up again and again in search of new destinations. As Robert Frost rightly said, “In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life- IT GOES ON.”
So it’s better to stop analyzing your life and start living. The path is like a staircase, you go one step at a time. So enjoy the journey and hope for a beautiful destination. Who knows one day you catch the butterfly!!!
Ciao!!!
