Romancing with Nature! - 1

I still remember, two months back it happened.
My family members went to another city to attend a marriage function of my relative.
As I was having inspection at office, I didn’t get the opportunity to travel with them.

After finishing office work, when I reached home no one was there to make me hurry in preparing all sorts of dishes for dinner. So I felt relaxed, spent nearly half an hour in bathroom. Shower with warm water relaxed every vein of the body.

Didn’t feel like eating. So took a piece of apple while preparing coffee. Then went upstairs to terrace and sat leisurely on a chair. While sipping coffee, I entered into thoughts. I have finished two thirds of age. That is I am forty years old now.
What did you achieve in this life?
Unknowingly this question raised in me. I felt my inner self as a cute little bird sat on my lap and was asking that question. I pondered over my life to get the genuine answer. No one was there to disturb me from those stream of thoughts.
First answer I got was “I am a good girl whom my parents show to world very proudly.”
My inner self questioned “Is this the achievement?”
My second answer was “I achieved distinction in every class and became a person with top layer education.”
Inner self looked at me for long and questioned “Is this the achievement you want to say?”
I entered into confusion. Determined to give correct answer. So immersed in thoughts for a while and gave a big reply “I am good wife to my husband and good mother to my two kids. I have achieved their love and affection. I gathered so many relatives and friends. Achieved good reputation in office and stood first in getting promotions.”
But my inner self nodded head side ways.
I became hysteric and said loudly "I have bungalow, car, good bank balance, got friends from all the departments of ministry who can solve any problem just with a phone call."
That little bird (my inner self) looked at me with pity filled eyes. Then it took long breath and asked “If you say these are achievements, then why do you feel alone among these people?”
This question really hit my mind very hardly.
It was true. Many times I felt alone among the crowd of people.
I felt some thing lacking in that atmosphere.
I never gave a thought on finding the reason for that feeling of alone while sitting in a crowd.

..................................will be contd in the next blog.
I know most of you may also be feeling like me. Have you ever tried to find the answer for it? At least make an attempt now and share your thoughts here.

THOSE ARE ACHIEVEMENTS INDEED. LET ME ADD ONE MORE TO THOSE. YOU HAVE IMPARTED KNOWLEDGE, THE MOST VALUABLE ASSET TO SO MANY. IN ISLAM IT IS BELIEVED THAT FOUR THINGS CONTINUE TO ADD MARKS TO YOUR 'AMALNAMA' (RECORDS OF DEEDS)EVEN AFTER DEATH. THOSE ARE, INSTITUTIONS OF VIRTUE AND TREES BUILT/PLANTED & CHARITY AS LONG AS THOSE BEAR FRUITS, GOD FEARING CHILDREN WHEN THEY DO GOOD DEEDS & KNOWLEDGE IMPARTED TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY PRACTICE THAT.

Nice inspiring thoughts on achievement of life.Achievement comes from taking the initiative and following up... persisting... eloquently expressing the depth of your love. Achivement can be in many forms such as material goal, relationship, creativity, career, power, fame, wealth est.I really think happiness is very closely aligned with achievement, Many spiritual traditions state that if you seek the highest first, everything else comes to you. Achievement is a state of consciousness that already exists within us but its often covered up by all kind of distractions. However achievement for reason is just another form of misery because the reason can be taken away from us at any time. The expression of achivement brings a sense of connection to the creative power of universe. Having that connection, we feel that nothing can stop us from accomplishing anything we desire. Excellent write up Sneha!!

Never ignore some one
who loves you,
cares for you
and
miss you,
because
one Day you may wake up from
your sleep and realize,
that
I do not make friends so quickly,
But once I do,
I will not break it so easily,
And be loyal to my friends.
Then you won’t be feeling lonely!
One may be some time alone,
but never be lonely!
Krishna says:
Perform your duty, you won’t lonely!
Some time you may need to be alone,
But never be lonely!

--Yogi

Oh yes, can identify word to word. As a woman one tends to don different roles as life demands and in this one tends to lose the "real" many a time. Then comes a phase, when one tends to dig deep into the layers that time has constructed to search for the "me".
