Guest guest Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 0pt">Based on this ... i would like to share some of my metaphysical convictions for you to ruminate on : Life is journey of your soul where people you meet are stations. The phases of our lives are just changing weather and the events are just changing terrain on our path. Some terrains are beautiful and smooth, some are tough and steep. Some terrains will test your strength and patience. Some will make u feel relaxed and even make u forget that it is a journey. Such is life. There are good times and bad times. Smooth rides and rugged ones. There are bad stations and good ones, but, ultimately you start your journey alone and you end it alone. Just by yourself. Everyone is born alone and dies alone. The journey of life is just like any other journey. One fine day on your journey you have clear blue skies and you can see the horizon. You can see where the road is taking you. You can see all obstacles in your path. But, then clear skies don’t guarantee a smooth terrain. You can see the horizon and the rugged path on its way. You prepare for the obstacles and you take them head on. You have the advantage of vision ... At that time what are you more worried about, the rock or the path? The assumption that there is something out there that can be so strong that it can change the path of your life forever or the fact that you know that your path can change towards the unknown. What do you do? Continue on your journey? Take a halt for the weather to clear? Will the weather ever clear? Be cautious and slow down and watch your step? Or throw caution to the wind and gallop through the terrain? Or accept the fact that there will always be rocks in your path that change the course of your journey and the new path that it forces you to take is just another path. What is important are your destinations and the fact that you know that all paths will take you there. And, even if the path doesn’t take you to the same destination, so what? Big deal!!! You are born to travel. That is your job. It is not the rock or you who decide your journey. Your journey has already been decided. Right now you are just traveling it. And what about the person who was miles behind you, started his journey long after you had started, but now is miles ahead of you? How did he get there? Did he cheat? Did he take a short cut? Why is he faster? Did he traverse the same tough terrain that you did? Why did He give the other person an easier path? What had you done wrong to deserve the tougher path? Or is it just an illusion? You go ahead walk faster, trying to race him to some finish line which you do not know where it is. But after some distance you see that he takes a different turn. He isn’t your competitor any more. He is going on his own way. Now what? Suddenly the journey isn’t interesting enough right? What do you do, stop and wait for the next competitor? Or walk on ?? ... >>> Contd ...
