Comparison,Competition and Comtemplation

The wonder in life is never our own.It indeed,is being shared by all.There is none shunning mysteries in life.Everybody endeavours for same,attainment is unlikely though.What a vague lead! I know I bored you.Yoo-hoo! come on, it was intentional but never to punish you with boredom.I wanted you keep reading.I know passionate readers hunt for core than clue.Presenting you fancy and racy lead,who will I hire to read further?

We have goals in life. Having so ,we turn desirous more than often.Desire makes us persevere irrespective of hardship and impossibility.Never misconstrue hope and desire.We strive not with hope but out of desire.Trust me,what drags us into abyss of desire is never the story of first emergence.It disqualifies to be first feel.Neither will it be.Consequently, life for huge chunk of us is pictured as race.

Racing in life is babyish act and unrealistic move.I know it will bombard you.Believe me not, but give a try, you will respect this dogma.What is the basis of life? Should we or should we not define our existence?Very often,vast majority of us tend to disillusion the preciousness of life.Does it mean life carries no beauty? Life is as beautiful as it means to be.It needs no glitter.

It's never the question of what life is but how we comprehend and value it.We often get inspired by other's success story.The very inspiration becomes motivation." They could achieve, why not I strive and celebrate bonanza?" we feel so.In actuality we get poisoned not inspired. Did they succeed zealously? Are they blessed with success they designed and longed for? If we ask so, we seldom get answer" Yes".

Never compare yourself with that of those achievers.Neither with those failures.We are never same.We cannot be alike either.In fact, journey of life itself is different.Design not your life.Be prepared to take it with no deny.You know,comparison shatters happiness,charm and values of life.Mysticism of our life shan't be amalgamated with other's pride,glow,flaw, calibre,so on and so forth.On seeing those inferiors,we boast of ourselves. It is very funny.

We crane our head high, take pride and enjoy complacency.We feel we are great,we are not though.The drama turns opposite on seeing those great ones, we feel low,dejected and doomed.Where is the charm and pride you had before? Do you know its whereabout ?We go through different scenes of life albeit we are still same.You neither won nor lost.But you feel the vast change.Never compare and contrast in life,be happy with what you are.Live a life you are blessed with.

Leading a life we desire is never an easy ride and it is often beyond our reach.Life shan't be necessarily perfect,rather should be happy.And it must emerge from within.Nobody can make you happy.You can't make them either.Go for genuine happiness to acquired one.The true basis of life is not to be perfect but to be real.Be who you are and do what you can.

Here comes the recapitulation, life is never a race to gallop and compete."All in you is all you are, all in them is all they are, all in all is all we are" there is no basis to compete.You may outshine others once or twice.But the day is awaiting you when things will be a slap on your face.The time will come when you will learn you proclaimed yourself wrongly.Competition always breeds egoism,hatred,ill-treatment,discomfort,desire and so on amongst ourselves. Carrying and grooming those things,we become inhuman.

We must live a life not just exist.We compete solely because we want to be better and most importantly,the best.Achieving it,will make you further egoistic,prideful and desirous.Failing to attain so will hit you hard with hopelessness,dejection and disillusionment.Outdoing others in life is never to be taken as greatness. That's just your conclusion.You are never great.You lack what he has.Owing to his ignorance of what you have, you are advantageous to outdo him.Race has never come to end rather its beginning.He may prove your inability and weakness at anytime.

Our inability to achieve goals and reach destiny leads us off-track in life.Don't dream too much,try to limit.Yes,we should have aspiration in life.It keeps us going and growing through life.But it is never wise to feel and be determined that we have to attain it.

Life is a jigsaw.Things hardly go in the way we think.It is good to take anything that comes our way.I am pretty much sure you agreed.I know you are struck.It happens.Just forget those bygone memories.I am apologetic if your flashbacks regret you.Just to narrate my story, I always wanted to become an Engineer since kindergarten.

I hypothesized my future world inspecting construction sites, owning luxury car,and having wealthy life.But the irony was I had never been good in mathematics those days.I held tight and kept dream alive.However,after eighth grade,I had to bid farewell to my lifelong dream.I found impossibility over-weighing possibility, I had to change then.After that I shunned mathematics completely.So funnily, I was only the ninth grader determined to opt for humanity after 10th grade.

I vividly remember when my friends used to tease me" Haha, it is too early man, what if you don't qualify?" Their words carried sense.But they failed to applaud me for managing my weakness and preparing for better tomorrow.By then, I no more wanted be an Engineer.And I wanted to become a Lawyer and later, rise to eminent post of Jurist in supreme court.I never worked hard as I should have.

I was then influenced by Martin's ideology" Even if you are not able to fly, at least walk.Even if you are not able to walk, at least crawl.And whatever you do, keep moving forward in life". Now, I am on the verge of graduation. You may ask me" Did you fulfill your dream of becoming Lawyer?"

I am embarrassed to say that I cursed myself for the failure. I landed up majoring Bachelors of Journalism and Mass Communication. When my parents and friends praise me for gaining full-bright scholarship,I say" Thank You"bearing immense brunt of regret.

Alas! it still hurts me.I failed to use magic to reach that goal.Had I not aspired for this dream, I would happily enjoy today with no rashes of regret.Now,I have no concrete dream for the days to come.Anything that comes my way will be taken zealously." Hey..dopey, wake up,you need to set goals" I mumble sometime.But I find it baseless as always.

Never be so much and so attached to your dreams of life.You can simply have it but make sure you are detached from it.Oh! you did it.That's stunning and I salute you.I see you smartly striving for success.That's the spirit.I am proud of you.You got what life is all about.

Life is more than difficult to comprehend.We must not only visualize but also analyze.What we see and feel is never the height of realism.We are exceptionally fortunate to have gotten chance to experience this world.We enjoy,we suffer, we mourn and go through many faces.Nothing qualifies to be permanent. Everything is subjected to change and extinction.Try to erase your tumbling sense of ownership.It's yours only today.

Whatever we see for now, it is safe to say that we have seen. We are no more guaranteed to enjoy it again. Tomorrow is so tragic. You may experience new world anytime. It is wiser to be prepared all the time.Nothing we have is to be trusted and treasured.Don't be cruel and lusty, let it go.It's nothing more than a circle of existence.

Believe me,our grandpa wasn't heartless, he wanted and always wished to see us.Where has he gone? call him so loud.You see if he is responding you.Should he responds,I would stay numb.

Life is nothing more than a drama, we laugh, we cry, we smile.Nothing remains consistent.Therefore, contemplation is the best way to get rid of worldly desire and suffering.Nothing we desire is indispensable.We are directed to love and respect the reality.Let's not deny it.We suffer not because we are meant to.May be something to be done with kind of happiness we are looking for and the way we strive.Happiness is not achievable but just attainable.Never suffer striving for happiness.Rather shun your ego,desire,lust and attachment. These aren't innate nature.

Contemplate in each and every step you take ahead in life, you will find no essence.Contemplation illuminates us with noble values of emptiness.Emptiness is guarantor of happiness,joy and comfort in life.It is no overstatement to say that it helped you.Thank you for getting out of the bondage of lust and attachment.Gotta take rest, I am tired of contemplating.Let's continue next time.
