Peaceful Sunday

05/04/09 - Sunday 3.30 pm:

After weeks I am actually in a mood when I think I can write. Things have come to a point where I think no more about some issues in my life and in others life. Now I think the best thing to do is to just let things happen and time take its own course, in the meantime, I make sure, I do not lose touch of some finer elements of life.... a life where I can stop by to take a look at the developments around, take care of some important things, walk a bit, laugh a lot and feel funny and happy from within. I think it’s also time to invest in personal developments, but what actually is personal development, I am still to figure out. It’s time to learn new things, to read books, to be technically wired and to enjoy my work.

I was wondering yesterday how life changes rapidly with time. And still how nice the past times appear to be no matter how worse they were when I was living them. The crux is actually no time is bad, they are only times to live and to squeeze out some experience and fun and bright pictures out of whatever moments we live.

There are so many new tings to learn and so much time has already been wasted in amble pursuits, in pursuit of happiness and power, in pursuits of fame and recognition, in pursuits of love, trust and devotion, which we fail to, see the things that already existing and beautiful. In such mad pursuits, we tend to forget that these are not the things to be chased and conquered. These are those things of life which come if they are destined to come, the more you run after it, the more they have a tendency to run away from you. And if it is destined, no matter how much you try to keep yourself away from it, it will come. You don’t have to go out in the open and spread your hands and call for them - things like love, power, fame, recognition - they will finally find you if it’s time for your life have come. So there is no point in running after them.

I believe one should actually run after things like concrete goals, targets, run after doing well for yourself and others, for the society, for the country and the world. Run after the desire to do good and meaningful work at the job you are assigned, for your family, for your relatives and friends and for some special people. Love, power, recognition, fame and success are all the by-products of the act of doing your duty with sincerity and devotion, with a clear heart.

So this is today's philosophy. I will, from next time, try to exercise some restrain while writing philosophical stuff. Because, these stuffs are boring for the people who read my blog posts, if at all any one reads, and I don’t want to upset prospective frequent visitors of my blog with an overdose of philosophy.

Next time, the theme will be world affairs, people affairs and fun affairs, and I wish I can stick to my decision, as I have always never done.
