Frustrated you are, but with your soul, never be at war...

By

Life seems so demanding at times. At the same time, it appears that we cannot be such demanding towards life. Think over the fact that, with changing phases of your life, responsibilities keep piling up on your shoulders, and you just feel like burying deep inside a labyrinth, from where seems no escape. You crib, you complain, you get frustrated often, impatient enough to break the cobwebs of work and responsibilities, to be like a free bird. We wish we could fly as per our wish. We wish we could have the power to break every piece of rock that hold us down. We want to live our life as per our own wishes.
But is it possible to forget every single responsibility and be self centred without thinking about its consequences. Or would it be wise to run off and spend your life as per your whims and fantasies?
Yes, everyone of us wishes so. There is no harm in wishing a life that we could live as per our own wishes. A student wishes to leave studies and enjoy his time. A typical Indian daughter in law feels like breaking the barriers and fly away to parents’s house. A salaried employee wishes to have maximum time for his family. A business owner wishes to set free of all the worries. A wandering youth, in the path towards success, wishes to forget every apprehension and live life to the extreme. Everyone out there is dissatisfied with his current life. He wishes he could break the barriers that make him dissatisfied. It might be a person; it might be a thing; it might be the responsibility or it might just be helplessness. But the fact is, no one can run away from his own life. The things that he ought to do, he has to perform. No one can change the normal course of life. Yes, it might seem nice to watch heroes in movies to evade from their worries by catching a flight off or a train to an unknown station. But this is real life. You can not run off. It is not that a person is a coward to face the world, but he is sensible enough to judge the implications of his actions. Think once, if our family head, be it anyone listened to his/her wish at some point of life, would you be the one, you are now?
Life is not only about wishes. Life is also about responsibilities. You have been granted the right to live. No one can snatch that away. But remember, with rights, duties follow too. If you are dissatisfied with the course of your life, running away is not a solution. Instead try to find happiness in smaller things. Music, being close to nature, sitting with your loved one, sharing your apprehensions with friends, taking out some amount of time for your hobby, listening your inner self, inculcating some passion, all these things can bring back the spark in your frustrated lives. You have to make yourself adapt to some difficulties because bright sun also gives burns if a person is subjected to it constantly. Similarly, the joy of having happiness will be lost if we are not subjected to darker phase of life.

On a path to glory

By
I have been lost before. in a pool of confusions, that delve inside my head. I have been lost before, in a tide of self-doubt, that crept inside my heart.. I have been lost before, in the guilt of underperforming I have been lost before, at nights with unstoppable mourning Through the years I learned, it does not matter If I am lost, I will surely be found And if no one finds me, I myself will one day walk past this maze To do something worthwhile and to amaze All those who laughed at the time when I was lost All those who created a sense of self-doubt, who made me face this ghost I have learned that the fears are just inside All we have is a beautiful world with opportunities, that is real and is outside So, I rise again from this pool of confusion, Yes I rise again from this guilt and emotion, I know am hard at heart when it comes to the topic of self-achievement But what is an achievement, without a little attitude All I want you is to kno...

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

By
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...

Loneliness is a rewarding evil

The path, the journey and the destination The wind was cold enough to make my soul shrink somewhere deep in my personality. It had been days since I saw the signs of a human habitation close to me. I do not know if I did it right or wrong to go forth with this journey, but was amazed to possess a strange feeling of calmness inside, the kinds of which was never felt by me, when I was living my dream life. It was just another day in my fast pace life, when I realized my real purpose in life, was not to excel financially or in terms of success, but to find a path that enrich my soul. The matter has been talked in numerous ways and millions of times everywhere across the web. But I will make sure to add a footnote to this never ending debate. A dream gives us a purpose to live. And my dream was to stand strong with pride. I wanted my father to be proud of me when I achieve the stature of a highly paid professional in the management industry. He had set high standard...
