The Philosophy Of Life..


My friends in fact most of the ppl who know me closely regard me as Mr.Philosopher..!!
Well I don’t actually try & be philosophical Rather it’s the way God has shaped up my thinking prospects.. it’s the way I’am..
I think one’s philosophy of life reflects a great deal about one’s character, one’s ambitions, one’s emotional quotient etc n etc.. list is long..

So without wasting much of your precious time, here is an extract from one of my write-ups …

My philosophy of life says that whatever you believe in, have firm faith in that but just be very sure before placing your belief on anyone .. any way of thinking.. as it must justify what you actually call it authenticity & good ethics principles.
For Example:- a new born baby has firm faith on his mother that she will support him & he’ll be safe in her lap..

In same way, we need to place our trust on someone we can rely upon, may be a close friend , our parents or the Almighty God

As for me I’m a firm believer in God & I know he is there to support me in every step.
I too had a rough journey & am still having ups & downs… but I never loose my hope inspite of whatever had come my way..
I may criticize..crib or nag about the situations.. but somewhere inside of me there is a never dying spirit of hope that keeps me going.. that things will get your way some fine day.. when u’ll be on top of the world.. u’ll be admired by people who laugh at you today.. u’ll achieve your goal.. u’ll make your parents proud.. u’ll fly high…

I believe in beauty of my dreams & I live for them…

I’m not a very religious person who keeps on fasting or visiting temples as any schedule or something, all I know is that there is God in everyone of us. I am more of a spiritual person..
It’s like.. (A learning from Ramayana)
“Sun is the God then we are the vessels of water which have reflection of him in them..”
We all have got the power to do something.. achieve something in life..
Everyone is unique, all we need to do is to identify our hidden capabilities & our purpose of life…
And as far as critics are concerned I have always believed “actions speak louder than words” rather I have seen it atleast in my clg life.. after topping my branch for 3 semesters in a row…

“Karma” (A learning from Mahabharata)
All in all what we humans have in hand are our actions or so called “Karma”…
Karma is something if we do karmas then even God cannot deny us it’s fruits.
Though Lord Shri Krishna said in Bhagvadgita that “karma karo fal ki iksha na karo..”
As fruits are not guaranteed instantly, as “what goes around comes around” if we do bad we get bad sooner or later.
If we do good, we will surely get good, but again its not constrained by time.
So we must watch our karmas & apply our energies in a positive direction, be optimistic so that we may have positive vibes around us, which certainly will change our way of thinking & thinking of ppl. around us.
It will also lead us to zenith of success.

SPARK:- I define it as enthusiasm, satisfaction, a healthy mental state of mind, optimistic attitude & a fighter’s spirit.

Now as far as Spark is concerned, I will quote example of ‘JAB WE MET’ remember kareena in first & second part of the movie & analyze the difference..!!

To retain spark we have 2 sides of coin:-
1.Protect Spark:- There are things like disappointment, frustration, unfairness & isolation which one may come through at different stages of life.
You certainly cannot avoid them, take life as it comes..!!
Just treat these aspects as monsoon, they will come into your life at regular intervals.
You just need to keep the rain coat handy, so that the spark may not die..

2.Keep the spark alive:- Money is not the only thing in life..
If it would have been the same, actors like Hrithik Roshan cricketers like Sachin Tendulkar would have given up their careers.. as they have already earned so much that even their future generations can feed upon it.
They derive happiness from whatever field they have chosen for themselves.
So be happy & satisfied in whatever you do or do whatever that keeps you happy & satisfied.
This would help you to nurture your spark..!!

Final Word…
I would like to add an extract from my favorite author Mr.Chetan Bhagat’s writeup …
“Life is one of those races in nursery school where we have to run with a marble in a spoon in our mouth..”
If marble falls, there is no point of coming first..!!
Its same with life, where health & relationships are like marble..
Your striving is only worth if there is harmony in your life..
Else, you may achieve success, but this spark, this feeling of being excited.. alive will start to die.

“Don’t take life so seriously..!!” we all are temporary in this world..
Remember “We are ppl. not programmed devices.. don’t be serious just be sincere..!!”
