Shattered But Not Broken....

By


I am shattered but not at all broken…..

“Throughout my life I have seen difficulties, pain, sadness, gloom, anger and worries. I have been subjected to every negative feeling that can cross the minds of any normal human being. I had felt pain to the extremes. The days seemed like volcanic eruptions and bad luck showered on me like rains of fire. Throughout my past, I had only known one feeling. A feeling of emptiness. Anyone I trusted, anyone on whom I was dependent left one by one. It seemed that I was not meant to be guided by anyone, it seemed like I am a wandering dissatisfied soul for whom no one seems to do the last rites as to attain salvation. Alone, sad and worrisome, I was the least necessary person in the whole world. It seemed that the basic aim of my life now was not to achieve anything but to bring back all that I had lost. Unclear in vision, I roamed here and there, door to door, person to person, in the search of happiness and peace. I too wanted a happy life. I too wanted someone to support me. I too wanted someone to ease my pain, to wipe my tears…..”

The above situation of haplessness and hopelessness seems so demotivating and strange. Everyone may think that how a person seems so low about his own life. Why is he seeking such help? What happened to the person? What past is he talking about?

But the basic question, above all, these questions that is necessary at this given moment is that, ‘Don’t we all, as individuals, face such a situation where everything seems like a night. Don’t we ever face a strong negativity around us that do not let us concentrate on the positive points of any particular event or happening?

We all face gloomy days when we feel that no one is there to be by our side. We feel as if we came alone in this world and will ever be lonely and one day end our life cycle without proving anything fruitful to the world, without touching the heart of the special persons in our life. But the point here is, do we ever think if we want to make our own lives happier or want to be in the company of the person who can make us happy? The point is we search for happiness in the outer world when the same solace and contentment is deep within. We often are mistaken by the materialism in this world, in the worldly ways, in the love and craving for this world that we forget the spiritualism within us. The contentment, the door to eternal salvation, the inner happiness can be found once we discover that this material world can surely shatter us but cannot break our real personality. As a person, we can be caught in the materialistic pleasures but our soul has the path towards happiness. We are our own masters. A person who is sad today, a person who feels shattered, the person whose life seem to be at the worst may be facing the situation because he is caught in the cobweb of worldly shackles that are not permitting his soul to breathe freely, to discover his inner beauty, to discover solace and happiness.

‘ The path to happiness lies within,
When discovered gives an eternal grin,
Not to break because of world is the quality of wise,

Because deep within he knows his soul knows the path that is nice.’

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,...

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...
