59: Finding thy purpose...

Life, Experiences, Situations, People, Strangers, and everything else around teaches something profound and concrete … something that we take with us and go about doing our usual chores each day…

Many say we are here in this life with purpose and we need to find it someday… to truly understand what we are made for…!!! Still in real life can u name at least 10 people whom you know, who have found out what they are made out for?

More often than not, the ruggedness of life gets onto everyone … everyone has to go through the cycle of responsibilities, duties, sacrifices, adjustments, compromises in their life…no one is spared from that… only thing that differs is the amount in which each one does that.

Getting to know your own true self is something that not many can accomplish in one’s life...societal theories, peer pressures or religious dogma you can call it anything you want... are the forces which most certainly stops one from getting up close with one’s own self..!!! But then leaving behind these barriers and obstacles some does reach that point of pinnacle wherein the fear to face one’s self, its needs, its dreams and its wishes vanish...and ultimate bliss sets in...!!!

Putting up a mask and performing on the world stage to someone else’s tunes is by far something that we all do to some extent in our lives. Human mind and psyche is programmed to think about society, its norms, its cultures, and slowly this ability to think about society and the world at large sets in, in our day to day living too...!!  We can easily recollect incidents where in we have done something just for the heck of doing it...at least I can in all my sincerity and honesty can accept that yes I have done few(read many) things just because someone else was doing it, or it just looked cool to do it...!! But as they say life is the biggest teacher one can ever get in one’s life.... as we meet new people...see new places...get new experiences... we evolve... and slowly and steadily every individual ultimately carves out his/her own identity in this world!! A point reaches in one’s life wherein being compared to someone else just seems shallow...and individual goals and milestones is all that ultimately matters…

Is finding your own purpose any different???

58: The flowing dots...

Life never stops to surprise me... it almost always tells me, teaches me, makes me realise something, when I least expect it to...

Very recently I was being questioned by one of my close friend as to whether I believe in closures?

I would be lying if I would say I got it what she was hinting at... looking at my dumbfounded face she volunteered to explain...

‘Closures as in something that can mean completion of something... or getting done with something or someone... or it can merely mean that you have achieved what you wanted to and now you have moved on to better stuff in life....’

My expression hadn’t changed a bit... I was still dumbstruck with the thought –“did I not get her? Or I don’t have an answer???”

We left that conversation there... but the question never left my mind....

Then while reading my article for office magazine she said something which had never crossed my mind before....

"A small dot can stop a big sentence...but few more dots can give continuity... Closures are not for you...."

Hmmm.....

51: Adi goes philosophical....

Offlate the funda that I swear by or you may say the funda that I intent to stay with for the rest of my life is all over the place...I can almost see and read everywhere the same thing as if world too is echoing my sentiment...so would like to leave you with it too...

 “Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma; don't let the noise of others' opinions drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you want to become. Everything else is secondary."

Very Frankly... it only means... do what your heart says you to do... dont question it ...because it is someone who knows you the best...!!!
