The Goal of life


                     
 World cup is to end round the corner. Every football fanatic’s eyes are glued to the arenas in Brazil where Germany and Argentina are prepared for the final battle. Lakhs of fans are praying for their favorites and hope to grab the world cup trophy in their country’s name. Everyone is tensed about who will score the final goal, who will make their teams will, who will be the star player. But have we ever worried about the goal of our life. Do we ever try to score a goal that turns ourselves into a star player helping us grab the victory against materialistic desires? I am sure that many would have thought about it, but no one is courageous enough to start this journey. We often worry about hundreds of things that are going on in our lives but never try to run past the defenders of our own thoughts towards the goalpost of salvation.

                        
Whatever we try to do in life, we always have that inner craving to search for the goal first and then if got a  
chance to score, shoot to score too. But the problem is, unlike football, the goal of life is hidden behind a
thick curtain of materialism and desires which are hard to lift off. The problem is we run aimlessly in various
directions when we know that the goal is right in front of our eyes. The goal is nothing but contentment.
Contentment commands happiness, happiness wash away apprehensions, an apprehension free soul is free
from worries and calm person is straight past the goalkeeper towards his life goal. To visualize the goalpost
in front of eyes, first try to visualize contentment in your life. Be happy in what you are, be satisfied with
what you have because desires have no limits and soul have only one wish, to be contended and happy. No 
one is perfect, some have the perfect body, some don’t, some have lakhs in banks some even find it hard to 
earn two square meals, but contentment is one thing that everyone can afford. If one can be at peace with 
what one has, he can surely score high in the match called life.

Experiencing the joy of laughing, on-the-go

Fun is an element which can be found practically anywhere. It is there on the streets and it is found in the smiles we experience when we find the latest episode of our favorite serial being telecasted on the television. I am not a television freak, and I do not prefer watching television most of the times due to impending deadlines at work, but am always eager to savor the tales it has to show as per my convenience and schedule. I used a lot of android apps to get hold of one of my favorite light comedy show on Sab TV. But, due to the busy routine, I often had to skip the telecasts because of the time slot restrictions.  For months, I had to skip the episodes, and then try to find old videos of the same. It was just recently that I found the latest Tata Sky+ Transfer set top box, and it came like a blessing in disguise. I am a huge fan of the hilarious tales of Jetha Lal and his neighborhood, but only Tata Sky+ Transfer gave me the power to enjoy the same as per my sch...

To work as per my passion and not profession:

The greatest fear of anyone around us, is of being not able to grab a respectable position in this society. As it was said in a famous movie that if we do not score good marks, we will not be able to grab a good grad college, and if there is not a good grad college with good marks, there would be no placement, no placement means no job, no job means no salary and no salary means no marriage. This means our society at large, is moving just to prove themselves on just a single front, i.e. to prove that they are worth marrying?? Or for that case, to grab a job which pays them handsomely. Is it the only thing left in our lives, to get money and family and get settled? What about our own aspirations? Each one of us, during our development stage, begin to develop some hobbies, some passions which we feel connected to. Some are too mainstream and some might even not be known to anyone accept us. If we stick to one of our passion, we develop a skill related to it. It may be singing,...
Gore haathon me mehandi ka rang hai gehra.... Laage hai ab pyar karne waalon ka aane wala hai waqt sunahara... Ek ek pal ab lagne laga hai thehara thehera.... Ab to bas saanson par hai ek bas yaar ke naam ka pehra... Aa jaye bas ab wo pal jab milein pyar karne waale do dil.... Waqt ko bhagao jaldi kaho yar ko ab jaldi se aa mil Aane ko hi ab hai raat milan ki... Khatam hone ko hi hain ab ghadiyaan sabar ki... Aayega jab yaar tab aayegi suhaani bahaar Milega aakhirkaar tootkar chaha hua wo pyar Jeewan mein fir ek naya savera hoga Khushiyon ka subah shaam fir zindagi mein basera hoga... -Anmol
