Life is a journey!

When we are born ,the journey begins.

Alongside this long meandering path ,we end up seeking many things.We meet many people and make friends with a few of them.Some stay with us for a short time and some remain with us forever.

While travelling solo can help us reflect on our thoughts and rediscover our true self,travelling with an acquaintance or a loved one can be an amazing experience, so long as we respect each other. This applies to our life’s journey too. May be that’s why good old school or college buddies turn out to be the best life partners !

No journey is complete without its speed bumps.It all depends on our compatibility with the land we choose to travel to and with whom we choose to travel with.

We have all known loneliness, a dark emptiness within our soul which seems to stretch for an eternity. We feel like we are a part of nothing, just drifting aimlessly upon the sea of humanity with no destination, nor land in sight.It is at this time that someone comes along and brings light to this darkness .

It is at this time in our journey that we make friends with a stranger.With this person, we grow, learn and experience the wonders of human existence. They become part of us, as we become part of them. Eventually, our journey must end,may be because we are not meant to be together forever and even if we manage to be with them for a lifetime,we were born to die, alone. But in between these two points,we hopefully have learned, experienced and gained some wisdom with the chance to pass it on.

Sometimes,we may lose a loved one on this journey, due to accidents or incidents or actions,which are beyond our control.Do not remain in trauma.It’s okay to grieve but not for eternity.Trust me,you will survive. Your life will never be the same, but given enough time,you will survive.In that moment, you are not able to see it that way. But once you do survive, the choices, good or bad, are your responsibility and life will be what YOU make of it.

Mark my words,you need to focus on the journey and not on the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it. Experience is the greatest teacher of all.May be you will get it right in your next lifetime.

At the end of of the day,I want you to realise that life comes with just a one-way ticket !There’s no return journey,whatsoever.So,do remember,to make your journey memorable with your loved ones as long as they choose to be with you.
