The Journey…

I have, as per a matter of fact… never believed in superstitions or horoscopes or numerology or luck doing things for you or editing your destiny by giving food to cows... blah blah... but i still for a matter of fact… consider myself extremely lucky… cuz in spite of everything that happens… of all the crimes that happen on a daily basis.. of all the bombs that fall… & of all the natural disasters that take place all around… I still have never been a victim to any… that makes me lucky.. right??? I mean, I remember, I was in CP a couple of years ago, infact many years ago… enjoyn like crazy with family… the moment we left… there was a bomb threat & 1-2 blast around… after we came back from Kerela… South India witnessed tsunami… I walked the same road a few hours ago, post which a girl was raped there… my point is… ive been lucky!!!

Apart from that… there are so many people who I personally know… who toil all their lives, but never get what they want… they die working for it… but they don’t get it… I on the contrary… always get what I want… literally… I may get it easy or may need to toil my a** off for it or I may hapta beg & cry for it… but eventually, I get it… sometimes, I get it after I have given up on it… I mean like long long after I had given up on it… but I really wanted it soooooooo bad.. that some miracle works it course & I get it… & as soon as I get it… im like… I got it… but do I need it??? do I want it anymore??? I feel as if I deserve better… I feel I cried a million rivers over it, so, I must have wanted it real bad… but I dint get it & was okhay with it… now that it is standing right here… im not sure if i want it… it doesn’t excite it anymore… why???

Then, I got to know… it’s a basic behavior of all human beings… they really want something… try everything to get to it… but when they get it… its like… the end… its just like everything else… regular… nothing enticing about getting what you wanted.. a sense of wanting something more creeps in… its BASIC behavior… its not my fault or yours… so… toil… nothing gives better adrenaline rush than the toil part… when your see your efforts falling into place & see yourself achieving what you wanted… you feel supreme happiness… this happiness fades when you reach where you wanted, because then you’re like… I wanted it… I got it… what next… so… to ensure that you enjoy every bit of what you want… break your goals!!!

During our 1^st 3 days at amity, we had multiple gyaan sessions, by multiple people… a hot shot from HCL came & this is the gyaan he gave.. he said.. the journey is always enjoyable… when u reach where you wanted to, there are only two things you can do… you can either go ahead or come back (cuz after all, how long can you stay at 1 position)… he said to be content in life… break your goals.. aim a little… when you reach there & are satisfied… aim higher… this way… you will always be traveling… this way you will always feel the rush… this way, you will always love what you want… this way, you will always be satisfied that you achieved what you wanted… & this way, you definitely will not get bored… this way… you definitely will not.. you know… never ask… what the eff now??? ;P
