Our dignity lies in the respect we accord to daily lifestyle... Contd

We all have basic facilities to support our survival but we have to realise how to utilise it in the best manner. Remember! It is usually the middle class youngsters who reach the top, not the rich man's son or daughter. For, the ones who face difficult situations are those who learn how to handle them much before others do.

By being open and sharing thoughts with like-minded people we can always enhance our level of understanding. At times even that doesn't work. But nothing beats the time we spend in introspection (popularly as meditation) with complete silence and solitude. It is when we learn listening to our soul that we realise how much beautiful and special we are.

Interestingly, we look for others who are, in fact, running after others. We don't realise that the minute we stop running after the mirage, the impossible looking aims turn around and search us with desperation. We are some body special, only we have to convince ourselves at first.

We are more important than anybody else around. People may see where we are today but we should look at ourselves where we can be. Let there be no one take us for granted even for day. For, we are a visitor not slaves on a planet, which is overcrowded with billions of people who need extraordinary special persons like us.

We never fail but constantly improve by some degree with each experience. The moment we are born, our personality begins taking shape by all those who come close to us. Irrespective of our relations with others, our personality takes shape due to the kind of individual beings and situations we come across. Isn't it something that actually makes or mar us in different stages of life?

We need to remember we have an important role to play in society. The general lifestyle of collecting academic degrees, getting a job, money, marriage, children, and death should have space and zeal to do something different, even if it is not superb.

We just need to feel our extra special being hidden in ourselves before anybody does it for us. There are hundreds of people having minimum education, abilities, looks or support, but they do rise in life. Do you know why? It is because before anyone tells them about their latent potential, so late in life, they have already learnt it by themselves in their own mirror at home.

Indeed, it is a fascinating planet full of possibilities and hope. But we have turned blind to see hope. The journey, which should have been celebrated every moment by travelling all alone with full freedom, has failed even to take a start because we wait for somebody to join or push us. Can there be more foolishness than this? We are intelligent more than our academic or professional excellence. All we have to do is to just start realising all this sitting alone and see what a difference it makes to our success an growth in life.
