Life: A journey of ups and downs.

Imagine a day where suddenly, in the middle of the night, we wake up all of sudden and realize it was just a dream. It is as dark as it could be around us but even amidst this darkness, different colors beam within our head, something that we don't expect at that very moment. these colors, though vivid in nature create a sense of illusion in our mind of something that we expect it to happen or something that has already happened before in our lives.
Today, in this so called extremely busy world, most of us strive to achieve the best for our own lives but very few look back to see what has happened before. The way we act, the way we perform our duties and the way we present ourselves has a direct bearing on our future. The effect that it carries along with it decides our future self which might not be realized at that moment but certainly forms a part of our long list of memories.
These memories, either good or bad, form an integral part of our lives. As long as they remain good, we cherish them for a really long time but the moment they don't turn out be as expected, we wish to forget it as soon as possible for obvious reasons. We tend to forget this simple aspect that our lives is mixed composition of our good and bad but that's how, facing all the odds, we will be able achieve that piece of cake in the future which awaits us once we cross the hurdles of life. That piece of cake, which remains a result of all failures and success would be certainly delivered to us at the right time. It is just that our patience is tested at every junction of this journey.
Just remember one thing, rise up every time you bend down, respect the path you choose to walk on and most important, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

WHERE DO WE LIE IN THIS SOCIETY?

We have seen events happening all over the world, some meant to be for the good and some evil in nature. At times, we have reacted, at times we have remained silent but at this juncture arises a pretty simple doubt in mind,” Why such differences in our reactions between two different events?”. Is it because some of these affect us and some do not or our mindset is such which is bound not to react to anything that happens around the world? It sounds weird when read at the first instance but the time has come that each of us really think about it.

We cry for development, we crave for happiness but never do we really think about our fellow beings who along with us tread on this journey of life. None of their requirements, their desires nor their opinions matter to us till the time it does not affect us in any way. Their voices are made to be suppressed by the power of few but again arises another doubt, “Who gave us this power, the authority to command at our own will without hearing the voice of the masses?”. We somehow tend to misinterpret the belief which people entrust us with an authority, a power which can function at its own will which only benefits a few and causes harm to a larger section of people.

It seems to be unrelated but that is how our so called modern, developed society functions at a larger scale. Most of us, irrespective of our profession, function only to benefit our own selves and their immediate family without even thinking about its effects on the society or to say it in a simpler way, the other people that exist in this world. There is a short phrase” All is well when all are together” but somehow everyone seems to have forgotten it or are ignoring it.

Each one of us is time bound due to our commitments and its really good to be punctual at all times but the world does not come crashing down when one stops to help someone who is genuinely in need of our help. What we believe is that we will lose our precious time by helping someone but no one ever thinks that by helping someone in need, one can genuinely gain their blessings for their own future which in a business term is called an investment if that is how everyone understands it.

This does not remain another article on humanity or mankind. It remains a commitment towards making this society a better place to live in where everyone sings along in harmony to move ahead holding each other so that the future of the generations to come is not at any risk. It is really important to understand that our presence matters to this society and that none of us are bad in any manner. It is just that we have forgotten the meaning of togetherness which needs to be revived within us. Also, at the same time it is important to understand that a small change within us does certainly have an impact which might not be felt in the present but certainly it can have a positive impact on the future. Let us all commit to make this world a better place to live in, a dream which all of us wish comes true but nothing is possible without the efforts of each of us. 

BE HUMANE, BE KIND
