"My Blog wont be Grammatically correct and i was offered by friends to get it Edited and corrected before publishing but i felt its not right because i didn't want it to be Perfect."
Last Night Bangalore was shaken by the news of Ms.Gauri Lankesh’s Assassination. She was 55 and was shot by 3 unidentified men at her home which was so uncool and uncalled for no matter what, whether she has fulfilled her dreams we don’t know, is someone going to follow her dreams we don’t know that either nor we will know it but she is someone who followed her Heart. A very bold woman with very strong views on politics perhaps the reason of her death. Just like the death of any other famous person the hullabaloo will be there for a week and just like others she too will be soon forgotten. I don’t want to get into the political part of it or the feminist part of it. Now the main point of this blog is the unpredictability of Death.
It’s like Yesterday Morning Ms.
Gauri Lankesh woke up, did her routine things drove to work, did her tweet on
an issue, was it ever in her mind yeah that’s it today is my last day in earth
or as phoebe Says in Friends “after she woke up she had regular tea, decided to
have a massage little did she knew ‘God was like yeah that’s it’”. Would she be
dead even if those brutal people haven’t shot her, the something what we call
as destiny or it’s something which could be avoided if wanted that’s still a
mystery for Humanity.
The way death approach us is like too soon even we forget to enjoy the beautiful day called “Today”. We are so super busy with our lives that we are running and running and running to earn more (which neither can’t carry or enjoy), to be famous but end up in depression little we know that a stalker called DEATH is following us and by the time we realize things it will be too late and we will be walking around in a form called Spirit or Ghost.

Now the real question is why are
we running and where are we heading too???…some answers are like we are running
coz we want to save for our children or save for future…but it’s like “’hello’
how do you predict your future if you can’t predict your today?” Well when we
have family and responsibilities we do need money and I totally agree to it. Let’s
look at the system in India…well to get a decent amount as salary one has to be
around 30 plus (am talking about the non-technical guys) but what we follow
like is even if the boy is earning little let him get married when the truth is
what he is earning is not even for himself…now the burden of earning, doing
multiple jobs and frustration enters slowly which turns into depression and finally
you outgrow your prime years and soon in death bed or rather wasn’t we having a
slow death. Sometimes things here are very complicated to understand and
decided by societal norms like the boy should be old or rather the girl should
be young, the boy should earn more and more importantly that one should get
married etc…this is all some orthodox ideas which was done during medieval
times.
Why can’t we simply accept the
fact that lets take responsibility when you earn decently and till then let he
or she fulfill certain dreams of theirs like learning some art or travelling, in
other words some time for yourself so at least we will be satisfied when our
time comes to leave this Planet. Well I was born I was educated by my parents
and of course it’s every parent dream to see their children get married and
settled and in a way, they are telling yes, we have done our part. I feel the
done part is when they see their children been “happy” …and not pushing them
according to their definition of the term called their “Happiness”…But this
raises the question are they going to die unhappy, not seeing their children
settled. I personally feel happiness or being content in life should not be
chained with expectations from others. One must decide his life goals and
define his happiness it could be anything …like for someone they like flowers
so gardening is what gives them happiness, for some they like to take care of
home like doing vacuuming, making food and taking care of the family, for some
its Love and for some its career, for some its just Surviving in this world, it could be travel and like that doing movies
or even it’s just not doing anything. We all are Individuals and we all are
different and Unique so it doesn’t mean we all should pursue same things in
life. We will have success and we have failures it’s just a natural way which
gives results but at the end of the day you will never regret it because you
have done that. To be honest there is no point of leaving a mark in this world
after you go because you are not there to watch or enjoy it. All we can do is
be a motivation to others by following your own heart and let everyone be able
to do it no matter what the result is. As NIKE says, “Just Do It”.

Your own happiness and life
content happens when you enjoy yourself, accepting what you are, your
strengths, your circumstances and being grateful for the life you have because
many people don’t have the luxury what we have. for all you out there and who
is reading my blog I would like request you guys to do one thing just take a
moment from today and enjoy the air out there, just enjoy this beautiful day
because we get very few of them and by the time we realize it will be too late.
Let me tell you one reality “He
is around the corner and he is waiting for our time to be finished in this
world, he won’t even give you a hint, no matter how much you beg he won’t
listen when its time he will take you” and as you go up in the air along with him you look down and see how beautiful your world was KASH... you wish you gave more time for yourself to enjoy it. No matter what all we plan for future we
really can’t plan our time to leave this planet.

Good start.. Just like life, death is also a reality but it doesn’t mean one has to live with the fear (cant say hope) if it comes every day. Live the present but also care for future as rightly said many people do not have the luxury of what we have so need to respect it.
ReplyDeleteReality in life is that death is easy, just vanish but what if say person meet with an accident and get paralyzed or something worse OR may be his/her loved one need some financial support but cant help due to lack of savings which can be the most painful feeling and regret. Reckon care & love is what makes the life beautiful, that is when a person might do small sacrifices and even think of saving something for future if not for him/her but for the family to be protected . Future is what motivates life that gives a sense of savings but yes meaningless if person forget to enjoy present and run after just money. Believe it has to be a balanced act of enjoying present and being smart for future as what if death the stalker is busy with some other project for next 100yrs! Lol..
