A Life Lesson #2

Never let an old flame burn you twice

Life is a journey which is far beyond just living.... It is about fun, happiness, people and above all experiences and memories associated with all of them.

Experience is a gift for some and a lesson for some... It is as you perceive it. But above all what matters is what it leaves behind because you never lose in the game of life either you win or you learn. And the pain you would feel while learning shall be your greatest strength when you face a similar situation again.


As I always say.... Life is a journey, supported by your wisdom and your wit. But wisdom and wit is something that needs to be developed over time and  what best a school would be to develop them than the school of life with 'experience' as its headmaster - who is worldly wise and supreme in the school called life.


Our perception teaches us a lot of things as well. No doubt our experience teaches a lot of things but if we have flexibility in our perception we can learn even more from our lives. Everything is a matter of perception; it’s all in how you look at things. We’re used to view them in a certain way which may or may not have helped but what’s the harm in looking at things differently…
Your life experiences and perceptions prepare you to build your own thoughts and opinions which always outdo the adopted ones. After all it is your life.... You have full right to have your opinions...  You can't always be following a trodden path... You should know how to create a path the world shall remember you for.... Don’t worry or be afraid to walk on this path, for your experiences ensure that you do not get burnt by the same flame twice....

The Quote here in the picture is something that we all must have dealt with at some point or the other.  A misunderstanding can create such unforgivable situations around those going through it that all their emotions of love, respect, bonding becomes a thing of the past and what takes its place are the emotions of hatred, jealousy and detachment. Often the two main causes of a misunderstanding are: Lack of Communication and a Third person. But the latter plays a major role using the former. People out of jealousy plant incomplete information which is often manipulated to create strife between people. This strife, which ‘they’ feel is their victory is actually the defeat of their morals and values which put them down to such a level that they can’t rise above these disgusting ways of manipulating things. The repercussions of a misunderstan...

Selfish: To sell your own fish for your benefit!?

Image
The title seems quite confusing but puts up quite an evident question – is doing something for ourselves and our own life which others can’t match up to, called being selfish? Selfish is a bad word in most people’s books. As a society, we applaud selflessness, honor, sacrifice and service. Being called selfish is hurting, but this particular trait can help you become a better person.  It is critical to be selfish and self – centered when you are considering the future of YOUR life! And that is because you are responsible for your own happiness.  Most people give up their heart’s desire to do something by getting influenced from other people. It is a strange aspect of human psychology that we try to please everyone and not hurt their feelings… but is it worth it? Is giving up your desires and dreams for others (who don’t have much of role to play in your life), fair?
