Let there be peace: peace in your actions, peace in your words, peace in your expression and peace in your thoughts !
Keep that awesome smile always on your face. It brings a wave of ease. Try it.
Anyways, few years back I joined yoga and meditation sessions. It was one of a kind experience. where, our yoga teacher told us a really wise saying. It went like :-
Our happiness is tagged, i.e : I will be happy when I finish my school, I will be happy when I am rich, I will be happy when I will become this or that, I will be happy if I marry an amazing partner ! I will be happy when I will have a lavish house with an elegant car in the parking and the list continues
If its all about happiness in the end, why not start being happy from right this moment !
It really hit me to the core . What you all say ! We all not just tend to but actually DO attach our happiness to earthly things.Sometimes, to such an extent that we ourselves gets so disheartened !
In other words we can call it expectations as well.
I will add another point to it, sometimes while we were busy expecting so much that when we reach the end, we go like : was it this we were expecting ? See this clip from Monte Carlo - Movie.
Yes, now you got it. We get so much attached to worldly things that we are not able to negotiate within ourself. OK. Remember your laptop, the time before you had it and wanted it ! It was a MUST at that time. And now, LOL ! You even can't count how many times you hit it , if it hangs.
Query quotient : So, what should I do. Leave everything, go into the forest and become saint!
Answer : Well, that's not required. It is said that it is the easiest thing to leave all your duties and responsibilities. But, its difficult to live in realms of society, morals and responsibilities. And, it makes you wiser. And, it will always.
So, what next then : Just be yourself. Stay calm. Hope for the best. Prepare for the worst. Give your best. And, leave everything rest!
AND , it rhymed well. :)
Life is a journey. Keep learning. Keep enjoying. Give more. Sharpen your skills. Strengthen your talent. And, everything will just fall into places and make this journey worth living.
Have a nice day all. Keep rising and shining
