It is strange isn’t it when you think about life. The hopes and dreams that we had for ourselves when we were little. If we reflect back on the years gone by can we be happy? We all dream of a fairy tale but it won’t be long when reality hits hard on us and when it does, it will make you understand that there is a difference between fantasy and reality.
People sometimes try to achieve something greater and some try to survive. I always tried to understand why we do this to ourselves and I never found an answer to that query. It is quite strange that for some people this is not even a question but for others like me it’s always a problem. I always wanted to find this truth and find answers why we suffer so much in life to achieve something that is far beyond us. Then again you sometimes believe that this is what helps you to live. You may have a different opinion to this than I do. Take few minutes to think. Is this what you wanted to achieve all this time. Is this what you wanted to become all your life and what you have dreamed of. Look at where you are right now. Have you even got closer to the person who you wanted to become?
Life will leave you with a lot of unanswered questions and it will give you a reason to smile, as well as a reason to cry. The success to life will always depend on how you look at things and how you handle different situations. Have you ever noticed that little children show only two emotions? When they want something they cry and when they get excited about something or when they are happy, they smile; this is a pure reaction of an uncluttered mind, a mind that is not corrupted and has little capacity to react and response. But as we grow older we develop other senses and our mind tries to capture everything that we lay our eyes on. Even though we are unable to process it at any given point it will be stored in our subconscious mind and will come back to us in the form of dreams. Now you know that why some dreams have such similarity to our real life.
If we want to identify what life is we can write pages and pages, it will be endless but still we will not be able to uncover the real truth about it. The most important factor that we need to realize is that life is something that will always give us regrets and happiness. We need to control our emotions and think like a child. We need to have an uncluttered mind to understand life and to deal with life. Always look at the positives that arise from a situation and keep smiling. Remember it’s something that you can give free of charge. Never regret over things that you have not achieved but always have faith in yourself to achieve bigger and better things. I will leave you with a saying that I always believed in “Do what you love and love what you do” and life will simply be a heaven.
