VIEW........... The difference making catalyst







“Fed up!!Screwed!!Exhausted!!..............I am giving up!!! “I was taken aback, as these poignant words reached my ears .The person sitting next to me in the bus was speaking out to a friend on the phone. “Problems, problems and problems…….my life itself is a problem……nobody likes me……….nothing good happens with me ……..no fun in my life, it’s a failure. I DON’T WANT TO BE BORN AGAIN AS THE SAME PERSON.”
And I went down the memory lane. Few years back I had heard a story. Plot I hardly remember, but the message is clear and straight as it was then. Here it goes, as every story begins- “Once upon a time…….
Once upon a time fed up of the problems in there lives, people of a certain village went to GOD to register complaints. They all felt the share of their lives, they were having was not justified. They felt their life was a burden whiles others was happier. Taking note of hundreds of complaints the Ministry of Life gave a common appointment time to all. It was informed that every person would bring there problems filled in a rucksack on the day at meeting place. The day came. The central table chaired by THE ALMIGHTY, other ministers and representatives of people .All other people were present in the hall next to the board room with their rucksacks seeing the proceedings through videoconference. The meeting concluded with the decision that the people having problem with his life would leave the rucksack there overnight. The lot will be collected and stored safely maintaining the secrecy of ownership. Next day people would come and pick any of the rucksack from the lot available there. The ocean of people with there burdens filled in rucksack was now thinking upon the action to be taken. Slowly the mass started dispersing. And to my surprise I hear that nobody had left there rucksacks. The speaker said it was so because for us, life of other people seems easy. But when it comes to living it, no one would like to be in others shoes. Another point added was every individual is supplied with the resources needed to fight the situation. HE would not allow anything to happen to you that HE and you cannot handle together.
All one needs is faith, hope and self-belief. Desire to learn the beautiful life, zeal to live the mesmerizing phases and courage to fight the intricacies. LIFE .The word in itself has so much fascination. Search for synonyms and u will find- existence, living, being. Having earned this big gift, I wonder how come people miss out on the larger, colorful, beautiful, fascinating part of it. Instead they feel sorry for the dark part, keep brooding over it and miss out the happy bus ride. Life seems to have a very simple rule if observed and followed. Enjoy, Learn, Move ahead and be Happy. Problems are part of life, then why crib? Search for solutions instead, it would be an adventurous ride. Sad moments come to teach us something, learn and march ahead to face life strongly. Every moment has got its value .LIVE IT.!!!
