Ever experienced fear
when the dream you have been dreaming of for years is about to be realized? You
wish you could buy a Mercedes and then one day when you can you suddenly get
scared of owning it. Or you dream of that coveted position in your organization
and when you are about to be promoted you can goose bumps. Reality can be quite
hard hitting at times especially when we have been waiting for it to happen. We
are surprised not because it was unexpected but because we wanted it to happen
and it did. Many times good things happen with us. But we utterly fail to
accept them. We realize them happening somewhere deep inside us but we hesitate
to accept them, both publicly and personally. We keep evading the issue. But life,
as stubborn as it is, keeps showing us the mirror again and again till we
accept that the charming image is infact ours. That the person sporting the
magnetic grin is no one else but us. We are likened to an Onion. Peels after
peels give us a personality. Problem is the inner most peel even amazes us at
times. The marble wonder that we encounter after peeling takes us off guard.
Old and Haggard Past, often
than not, overshadows our pliable present and tensile future. We keep fearing
that the happenings of the past may boomerang at us again and this time with
greater force. We develop trust issues. Trust, which is akin to an eraser, gets
shorter with every breach. We fail to keep our faith in people that we meet.
Many times good things
happen to us despite our strongest opposition. They happen without our even wanting
them to happen. We fear this, fear that we will be happy. The very thought of
being in state of happiness make us go nervous. We start doubting how we can be
happy. We meet people accidently. Meet them without even the slightest
inclination not knowing how gargantuan impact they will leave on us. With time
we realize that no matter what happens they will always be around. Always be
there to pester us with their chidings. This is faith in its highest form. The Faith
of the unknown controlling us to remain in state of bliss. Some call them
coincidences. If it is meant to be, it will be!
We forcibly revert to
Decision making. We decide what will be done by us, who will share my life with
me, my joys and my tears, my hopes and my fears, my doubts and my beliefs. This
kind of decision making is not justified because so much is happening behind
the scenes. We are not even fully aware of the script. All our life we keep
collecting and hoarding. Things, relations, people, emotions…True happiness
lies in giving it all. In sharing them and not stashing them. Love without possessing,
feel without fearing, accept without guilt, laugh without inhibition and cry
without holding it all back. The feeling of releasing it all to the Universe is
simply splendid. The lesson is to never give up on things that make you smile
and make the world smile with you.
