Your past is your kid's future. Spend your time wisely and nicely as you will be seeing the replay sometime in your life and it is not always the greatest feeling watching your kids doing similar to what you probably have done several years ago. No complaints and no questions just a shock. God sure is the best justice and you know in your heart when certain things happens that why they happened and why they happened the way they happened.

Often I hear the phrase, sky is the limit. I wonder what it really means. Either that there actually is a limit or one just say that you are unlimited because sky is far away at unlimited distance. It has often been said along with what one can achieve or one can do in life. While growing up, going to school and then college, everyone is given this lesson that if you work hard and do good in your studies and become a professional then once you have attained the education and your equipped with the necessary experience then 'sky is the limit' to what you can do. Alas, we forget something which is so important and that is the fact that 'time in limited'. You may reach the skies if you were given unlimited time but that is not the case. So what you can achieve in life and what you can do is bound by 'time'. And time by no means a simple factor in the equation, it is a killer. The reason its a killer because a person dies when the time expires. So the game of life no wonder has unlimited levels and unlimited fruits and bounties and whatever you can collect when you are equipped with the right tools, time expires. I then wonder where can you use the phrase 'sky is the limit' when its actually not even a right phrase at least not from the perspective of humans. Its a demoralizing goal which can never be achieved and thus showing you the realities of life.

Time does not stop for anyone, anywhere. Most of us grow old every single second that pass. Only the few lucky ones grow while growing older. We have to waste few seconds or minutes of our precious life to stop and think where we are. Are we growing or are we just growing old. These few minutes of rethinking could be vital for our future path. We could choose to continue to go straight heading the same direction as we have been and face the surprises of life like a game of luck or we could choose our path and look ahead of us to plan, like a video game where you could see the map ahead of you to decide either you are going to make a turn or just slow down. The problem is that once the game of life starts, it does not stop until the game is over. It is hard for most of us to plan out the minute by minute details therefore we could just look at our days in full and see if we have moved forward every single day of our life or we have just passed another day not knowing what was it all about and what were we suppose to do. When the time pushed us through a day, we end up not growing a inch to face the challenges we must face, either we have planned out or either its a surprise.

Foliage, falling of the leaves. Making all the trees loose all the beauty. Is it good or bad. is it beautiful or not. all depend on the perspective how you see it. the good thing is that it will not stay. nothing remains for ever. it will pass just like the spring passed so would be the autumn. this is probably the thing that give us comfort knowing that there will be flowers again. there will be summer there will be spring. cycle of life. blessing of forgetfull memory. so are the days in our lives. sometime we cheer and some time we are sorrow. well nothing remains forever not even the feeling. thats the chemistry of humans. but when we are happy we dont look at clocks, we dont look at calendars we dont wait for days to pass and nights to come and nights to pass and a new day to begin. but when its a hard time on us, the clock stops or we just look at it so many times that it does not even look like its moving. though the reality is that it is and it will. it has not stoppped once and will not in our life time. maybe when it does then its not our life time or it just stopps for us. when things are down everything looks down. even the folliage. the perspective all appears to be painting the same picture. its not beautiful. you can see the sadness on the trees. you can see the mix of gloomy mood shown by the various color of leaves. you can see the colors of tears losing their friends and neighboring leaves. ah! the perspective. will there ever be spring again. there ever be blossiming again. yes it sure will be. all it need is to hang in there because only those will see it who hung in there. but thats not an easy thing to do for everyone.

Its a famous saying that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. No one really talks about how to get to the end of tunnel or how long is the tunnel. Although knowing that there is a light at the end many do not survive the journey through the tunnel. encouragement has effect but it can only take you far. to adjust to the darkness of the journey is sometime very hard and you just hope that you have enough left in you to enjoy the light at the end of the tunnel when you get there. the same feelings must be for those who are in an ocean looking for shore. you know the water ends somewhere and you know there is a shore somewhere, but you just don't know how far and if you will be able to make it or not. the fear of not being able to make it is far more than the excitement of knowing that shore may be near soon. just like any other physical activities if you are not prepared and your mind and thought process is not accustomed to this kind of excitement or hopelessness, then the journey becomes even tougher. Fact of the life is that no one ideally would like to be prepared for these kind of circumstances and be the champion of overcoming these ahead of time so that's where the mystery and not knowing what is going to happen next moment comes into play. life sometime throws you in a deep ocean that sure has a shore or put you in a tunnel that sure has a light at the end but does not always tell you how long you will have to go through this. Interesting as it may seem in the beginning, hopeless it gets afterwards and boring it becomes in the end. Yet, life is beautiful.

Sometimes it feels like you have hit a dead end. You wish from the bottom of your heart that there was some way, some door, or just some hidden surprise. Although the situation demand that you go back, do what you have been doing, move on with your life but you just wish you don't have to goback. Strange MCQ's of life.

One of the speciality in life is to learn what other people are thinking. This could come handy at times but again could really makes you dull and sad as well. When you start seeing that people around you how they are either being jealous or over zealous or over clever or outsmart you with nasty acts of theirs then one wonders what a mess this life is. A man when he gets sad and is overshadowed by the worries of his personal life, I believe could still come out of it eventually but when you see that its because of what other people are doing that is making you feed bad. At times this is not directly done to you but just seeing that happening angers you. This sort of people behavior is the one that really makes the heart dull and sad and even though you may be happy within yourself of what you got and how you have been doing, you just forget all that and start to wonder Why Why Why. And sometimes you really hope and wish that they have not done or shown this to you or there was way you could run away from all these stupids around you.

A man should never ever try to break the circle of life. May be the saying that 'what goes around comes around' do emphasize the same phenomenon that the life has a circle where everything fits and is suppose to be there and there only. If you switch the tasks or disrupt the secquence in which this circle of life goes then you will see it will haunt you later. The earth, the globe as we see it, the solar system, the planets and beyond and even within the earth the way all things are in sync make a man wonder that his position or his part that he is given to play is very vital to keep the circle going. A man may look smaller to the objects and things and other key elements of the system but his part is duely important and infact he is the one for whom this whole system has been put to place so he has available share of resources and tools he would need to fulfil his duties. Therefore, it becomes very important for an individual to realize what part he has been given to play and should adhere to that and perform to his best.

I do not beleive in zero tolerance when it comes to relations. Zero itself is a symbol of emptyness, presense of anything. When we have already established a fact that no one is perfect then zero tolerance would cross out everyone around us if we were to follow this criteria. At the same time, I beleive three strikes out is too flexible a choice to adopt in a relationship. So the middle choice is two. Give everyone a second chance but if you give them more than two chances then you will become the victim at that point. Because if you think you are giving a person three chances before you move on then think of it from the other person's perspective. They hit you not once, twice but also got the chance to strike thrice then you are nothing but merely stupid. So even if it works out later, it would be a relation between a stupid and a selfish. Who could hurt someone again and again and again, none but a selfish person indeed.
A person like anything else goes through several changes in life physically, mentally and emotionally. We may react to different situations differently at different times. The personality and character of a person does not change but remains the same although he may not be showing and adhering to it at times and the bottom line is that a person remains the same. We should not judge a person or conclude the personality based on what we see at a given time. It is possible that a person if put in to a character or role and act totally different from what we expect out of his personality. But that does not necessarily means he is changed. Just like human body parts can grow and form shapes to certain extent for certain period of time and then they only go through minor changes over the course of life, the same is true about personality. Some people when they get a dry skin, uses moisturizers to keep it soft and shiny while other just don't care about it and end up with really dry skin or even worst, their skin looks dead. Know a person with skin, condition of the skin could change but the person is still the same. Life is too short to know each and every one around us completely and very well. So those you know very well already, you have actually invested your valuable time on them. Don't loose them easily.

There is nothing important and beautiful in life than having a wonderful family. Just like we prioritize our tasks at work place, one should prioritize matters in one's life as well. Family should be given more importance than work. Because we do the later for the former and not the otherway around. Live with less money but do not live alone.
We sometimes come across a situation of conflict between love and doing the right thing. My approach would be to do the right thing first and then consider love. If you sacrifice your love for the sake of doing the right thing then your love will always cherish and be praised within yourself. You will not necessarily be unhappy. But, if you choose not to do what is right but what is in your heart only, then chances are that you may regret all your life for not doing what was right and should have been done. This feeling of guilt will effect your wrong decision too.
If you can buy peace of mind with money then go for it. Sometime we come to a point where we have a choice of peace of mind by spending a little extra money. Do not save penny or even dollars when it comes to peace of mind versus savings. This lesson I have learned by seeing different things that happens in my life and around. Life brings you so many surprises and challenges and some among these becomes worries and troubles. So even if you are upto challenges and hardnut person, let life throws its pitches on to you and you would have enough fun with it. Why create your own.!!
If you can get rid of some worries in life with money. Go for it.
If you can buy peace of mind in life with money. Go for it.
The best use of money is to spend it. Generously but wisely.

One should always listen to others. May be they all are wrong at all times but gives you another perspective and view.


Do always as you please but always listen to others. Just remember this one point in your mind when listening to other people advise "I know I am doing the right thing. I know what I am doing BUT what if there is a 1% chance that what others are saying is right then where does it put me then" may clear up another hidden view for you.
