They say love grows with time. I
too agreed blindly. Then one day news agencies came hustling bustling with the
headlines of a divorce after 17years of alliance. And that too happening out of
the apprehensions of future. A divorce because of the assumptions that they may
get divorced in future...I asked myself questions on my belief.
“There are no permanent friends
and no permanent enemies in politics”...quoted a man who quotes in rarest of
rare circumstances, MR. Manmohan Singh. I again agreed blindly. But again
interrogated personal self on applicability in life...are there any permanent
friends outside politics???
But then came the
masterstroke...”when our own life, our own existence for which debates and
struggles are on is not permanent, how can we expect even the existence of word
permanent in lexicon”.
Is there anything which is
permanent in this temporal world??? And I say yes...temporary nature of everything is permanent.
Decipher the following
code...
Life is a wet soiled long,
extensively elongated footpath...so long that it has a blurred end...u don’t
know where will the path lead you...but we keep on walking...placing our
footsteps...we keep on walking leaving foot impressions on wet soil...the
impressions are our past...permanent...no one can change that...where you are
standing is present..You can mould the impression but can’t hide it...the patch
in front of you is future, a temporary stability ready to be changed
permanently...you don’t know where will you reach but you can decide how will
you place your feet...you can decide the areas where you will walk with soft
ankles...area where you will do bunny hop...man only decides his actions...and
in a way decides his past..a man only choose a line on the footpath which he
follows.
Only past and destiny is
permanent...time gone and actions done are permanent...they can’t be
changed...rest everything is temporary...present is temporary...Future is
uncertain...but the destination is pre destined. Where will the footpath of our
life will take us is destined, can’t be changed. What soil and climatic
conditions we will face is also destined but how will we react to adversities
is our test of character.
Everything is destined except the
decisions of man!!!
The destination of the footpath we
are on is destined...It is destiny to be on this tract...it is destiny to find
soil hard or soft...it is destiny to have heavy feet or light delicate ankles...these
things can’t be changed...these are those attributes of our life which are
inherent to us, which can’t be changed, which are permanent...which are
destined....but we can realise our haves and have not’s and can wisely decide
our actions so that we leave a glorious past...we have trouble free conditions
for present and we don’t create a mess of our future.
We can’t complain that we slipped
on wet soil...we can only blame our own selves for not placing feet with utmost
care. What we are, is permanent, our destiny. What we will be is again
permanent, our destiny. But how will we reach there is our choice, how
carefully and wisely will we understand the conditions we are in will decide
how easily we will reach our destined destination.
What you are born is destiny,
permanent. What you will die is destiny. How you will reach there is our
choice. We are destined to reach there, but with how much pride, it is up to us
to decide.
Our actions not only decide what
past we leave behind us but also determine in what conditions we place
ourselves.
We watch others walking on their
paths...we assume them to be perfect...we suppose their walk to be accurate and
try to imitate them on our paths without realising the soil conditions are
different. We must walk our own way as our soil demands. This way we can
convert an uncertain temporary present-future into a worth watching permanent
past.
Apprehensions for future are
must. One must stand on his path and analyse the path conditions to plan a
strategy for future...but one must not over analyse...who knows how hard
sunshine will when we reach a yard ahead.
Past present future are not
distinct...they are like a rim chain of cycle. How swiftly present will change
into past and how unknowingly future transcends into present is
remarkable...
Present is like a stamp
machine...changing temporary uncertain time into permanent past...
And life is just as above...we
are guinea pigs of god, laboratories. He experiments with us. But we can’t
complain.
Realise the soils and walk
cautiously. ..we are already on a slippery sticky or may be quicksandy conditions...lets not fall but see where our destination is...
