What would matter in the end?

By Anonymous -
We take birth, we grow up, live our life and then die.
I always wonder, on my last day, just a few moments before my death, what would matter the most for me?
Family? friends? Wealth? What would?
How can I stay alive even after my death?
By doing some research in med school and having my name engraved in medical literature?
By authoring a book myself?
By having a cool white marble grave with my name on it?
I always keep on thinking that the world should remember me after my death.
And then it striked me....whats the need of this?
Once we are gone..we are just gone..nothing matters then.
In the end, nothing matters more than the SATISFACTION that Yes! I had a great time with my life...Although with some regrets but....kya jindagi jee yaar maine...maja aa gaya..ab aaraam se marta hu...Why we cant keep this attitude?
Why we want to remain alive posthumously and why we waste the VALUABLE time of our life in setting things for after death?
Why?
Until today, I wanted the world to know me after my death.
But today I feel, I dont want world to remember me, I have got just 1 life, I will try to enjoy it...with happiness and sorrow too.
Who said u cant enjoy sadness....are kabhi tanhaayiyon me bhi raho..maja hai usme bhi..
Life isnt all about happiness... its a cocktail.
And I want to enjoy this cocktail completely...I wont let it spill on the ground just for the sake that some other person who will come after me will watch the stain of my spilled cocktail and remember that yes,someone was here.
No!. I will have my cocktail completely and i will go to my grave as just another human being among the thousand others who died today.

Adversity spawns Greatness

By Anonymous -
Thanks to the affluent society that exists today, our generation of kids are running behind inadvertant things on internet. We care more about our fb posts, whatsapp statuses, insta stories than about big real life issues. Thats leads to us being very dissatisfied with what we have. I came across an interesting piece of literature today. Its called Missing Tile Syndrome. All humans have a tendency to look at what we dont have. Maybe evolutionarily speaking, it is important to look at what we are missing from our life. But in today's world where almost al of our basic neccesities are fulfilled,we tend to find more of those missing tiles. And maybe thats why we dont live to the greatness we aspire to be. Because our generation knows no adversity. All we know is finding those missing tiles so much that we get the missing tiles syndrome. People who really have missing tiles in their lives have thus, a greater shot at achieving greatness than us. Think of kids with homologous Sickle c...

The Commitments

By -
There's this thing about Commitments.  They are known as commitments because they dont have any expiry date. What bothers me most is lack of people's courage to commit to something. Its something like  a give or take thing. You commit to something, you deserve a commitment in back. But its not always the perfect choice. Commiting to something is completely the individual choice, but what keeps me intriguing is: If someone is Commiting you something, do we have the moral responsibility to commit the same thing back? Or was it just his own choice to commit and that shouldn't mean any compelling behavior on the receiving party? This may sound insane or completely nonsense but thats what our life is all about...Give or take.

The Umbrella of Happiness

By -
We are not constantly under this hypothetical umbrella. At times, there are things which throw the whole world under this umbrella like this New Year while at other some things throw us out of the umbrella. The point is: We can never stay under this umbrella constantly.  We have to get out of it in order to enjoy our stay under it more. Sometime, We have to move out and get drenched in the sorrow pouring out of the umbrella and sometimes, life throws you out forcefully. What we need to realize that we arent going to be kept drenched out all the time. We will get under the umbrella someday. Today its their day, who knows tomorrow will be yours. Keep hoping and keep on striving to get under the umbrella. Adieu.
