Tough Choices
Sometimes happiness is not the
option when you have to make choices in life. But you have to be strong while
making a choice as it is going to affect your present as well as future. It is
always better to give priority to the future as present will soon become past
but future will remain there forever. You have done plenty of mistakes in your
life but you cannot afford to do the same throughout your life because life is
not just about making mistakes. It is about learning from your mistakes so that
in future you don’t make the same mistakes again. As humans we are prone to
making mistakes and there is not a person earth who has not done any. But happy
are those who learn from these and brighten their future with the wisdom
received.
Happiness has unlimited definitions
which are different for everybody. One has to find out their own definition and
make their own set of rules to get it. Life may not be very good with you as
everybody knows, but no matter how shrewd it is, you still have to accept it.
And this time you don’t have any choice but one. If you crib for the
difficulties you are facing in your life then you will sink for sure and nobody
will ever help you. Someone has rightly said God helps those who help
themselves. We cannot sit quiet and cry for mercy to God in storms. We have to
get up to fight the storms in life on our own and then seeing our courage God
will give us more power to fight.
When there is an examination on paper,
we know either the answer we have chosen is right or wrong but in life there
are no such rules. For someone it may be right and for you it may be wrong.
This makes the choices tougher and when you find it difficult to make decisions
you consult others. But again as I already said it may be right for the person
you are approaching for help but not for you. One should not use the
suggestions as the keys but analyze the reasoning behind them and if these reasoning’s
are in line with your situation then only you should think about it further.
It is not easy task because you may
end up doing another mistake and may be one which cannot be corrected. But in
spite of the difficulties you still have to make choices on your own. You can’t
leave the control of your life to others. They may be your dearest ones who
love you more than anyone else but can you be sure that they will not do any
mistake? Even they are humans and they can also make mistakes.
The only soul you can fully trust
is your own. You have to listen to your heart and your mind. If you listen only
to your heart you may make mistakes but if you use both of your wits then you
have less such probabilities. Learn from others’ mistakes, your mistakes and
then ask your heart to decide what sounds good to you. Use your mind to analyze
while you are trying to draw a conclusion for yourself.
Be strong so that nobody can take
your advantage or betray you in any way. A man is his own best friend and no
one else is better. Yes you can trust your parents up to some extent but even
that cannot guarantee you a flawless life. You have to accept that you cannot
live a mistakes proof life. You will do mistakes and you will have to pay for
it every time. You may look for convenient options by giving the control of
your life to others and just listen to them without giving trouble to your
mind. But will it solve the purpose? No, it may be a good shortcut but
shortcuts often end into a deep hole which can keep you inside it forever
without a ray of hope. Why take that chance in your life? Be fearless and take
chances now. Learn now so that you don’t go into that deep shit. You may suffer
a lot in your life but one day you will learn. And just like gold comes
purified from the harsh flames, you will also get the wisdom of your life which
will purify your soul and will elevate you to the next level. And then you
don’t have to bother about making mistakes because you will be clear about your
mission on earth. You will understand your soul and your own definition of
happiness.
