Failure...!!?? Loss...!!?? Hmmm....

“Strive to be not just good but great, that way nobody can point a finger at you. Stand out in the crowd.” This is what my dad taught me since the time I developed the innate ability to comprehend my ideas and thoughts. I believe I have tried to adhere to this through a range of my capabilities in the past years.

But I also have reasons to believe that the last year may have been compromised on keeping in mind the above. I am capable of finding an array of reasons for the same but those would just be mere logistical errors and excuses. There are no reasons for me to blame another because all the blame really lies within. The feeling of victimization arises superficially but is soon overcome by the realization of the mistake.

Life is never fair and to demand for the same would just be irrelevant. One needs to excel to such an extent that the concept of fair and unfair becomes inconsequential. Once you have realized the wrongs, then the loss doesn’t seem too hard on you. Even though the loss might seem to be a huge setback, especially when one has not experienced any such in the past, it all depends on what you give more importance to- the loss itself or the reasons for that loss.

The presence of sensitivity gives you the opportunity to comprehend you thoughts not just through your mind rather through the heart as well. An amalgamation of both- the heart and the head always leads to a comprehensive solution.

Faith in oneself is then revived from hibernation, and this I firmly believe would always lead to solutions that only take you forward, that give you the strength to strive for the best …always !!

A Thought . . . .

……..Prioritize…Life gives you opportunities, an umpteen number to prioritize. Decisions that need to be made based on your priorities. But then how do we decide what is more important than the other. The Big question of ‘I’ then comes banging on your door again. ‘I’ is me, myself and nobody else or ‘I’ includes the people who are a part of my life. In the same ‘I’ there are people I choose to become a part of me but others that come by default. Its not about how they became a part , rather its about what they did while being a part of my life. There comes the decision to prioritize.

Contemplation, figure out who or what comes first. Mistakes just seem to always find a way to crawl in here. You choose one over another, one seems to always lose, so you seem to always lose.
I guess the whole shenanigan, every decision that you need to take, always brings you back to the ultimate question; the circle that starts and ends at the same point, or maybe has no points at all.

Its what you believe, or what you want to believe at a certain point in time, a corner in some familiar space, a moment in movement, or the stillness at the end..

A never ending thought trickles down from your heart to reach the tips of your physical body trying to reach out into the universe , but the brain calls it back to stay, because his is what really keeps you alive.

The movement gives you direction, the direction a focus, and a grand dive into this focus moves you through time….
