Lessons of Life

Life brings to you an opportunity to meet different kinds of people, and each day you learn something new. And it's the learning that helps you to prepare yourself for a new and challenging future.

Time is changing, and people too. Each personality has its own identity and a different ideology. You too have your distinct ideas, but they also tend to change after a while. Change also comes when either people share their experiences with you, or when you live them in real.

But you have to make sure that these changes are serving their purpose of doing some good in your life, because the ups and downs of life pushes you to take some wrong steps and make many harmful decisions which later leads you to suffer the consequences. But what you are unaware about is that no one is satisfied with their lives. Everyone has a buried desire to do something or get something which remains unfulfilled.

People usually think that the purpose of life is to fulfill their unquenchable desires. But these desires are never-ending. Sometimes they are helpful in living life, because it is the craving of your mind that inspires you to do something new, something unique every day. But sometimes these desires put people in unwanted places and situations, from where it is seems impossible to return. So it is important that we learn to control our mind.

A well controlled mind will help you to make the right decisions for yourself. But mind control is not that easy. Only through constant practice and using will power, you can learn to control the mind. It is very important to have an understanding of the difference between right and wrong. If you are able to do this, then it is certain that you will never live a life bound by your own desires, but will live every moment happily, and will find yourself free from sorrows in any circumstance of life.

And it is a big lesson in life. Happiness is not a destination where you have to reach. Rather it is an option. You can choose for yourself to be happy under any circumstances. This is possible only when you free yourself from this societal rat race. Only then you'll be able to decide when do you feel the real happiness, or in which work you find it.

Everyone defines a happy life in their own ways. But you have to write this definition for yourself. What is a pleasant life for you? The answer to it may be different from the rest. Because this life is yours and only you know what you want from it.

If you know how to find inner or real happiness, then you have two options. Either you can work hard to fulfill your desires, or you can learn to live happily making peace with your situation, because not everyone gets equal chances.

But keep this in mind, that time is not going to be the same, it will change. And which you are considering as your misfortune or helplessness today, is probably laying a strong foundation for the coming future. Defeat and disappointment comes in everyone's life, but they remain only momentary if you learn to try again. Because future is uncertain. Perhaps, every incident that happens with you acts like a reformer to take you towards a bright and beautiful future.

So, never let your hopes die and have faith that whatever happens in your life has some positive reason. You just have to keep adapting yourself with time and keep learning something new every moment.
