Oh life!! tell me what you've stored for me in your pocket??

July 26, 2011.

Life is indeed, never a bed of roses. Now it depend how long is the journey of throne. For some lucky souls its just round the corner while others struggle throughout their life.

Who knows what life has stored in its pocket, some soul live for ages while some make for few seconds, some are born rich while others die in poverty. Life is a mystery, who knows where one end up and with what. Have you ever imagined what makes life so unpredictable and unforecastable? Well, I guess it depends on the way we handle it. Life for me is like a clay toy, you can shape it in any shape you want. Yes, there will be times when you think of giving up and letting it go. But sticking to your plan is the master plan after all.

This is one of the drafts I never published or even completed. I will keep my original post and add more now since my perspective has changed and I have grown so much mentally. 

I have always wondered about this topic, why some people are so lucky and others have to constantly struggle. When I say lucky I mean two types of people; one who get whatever they want, without any effort and others that can make things happen effortlessly. I'm not too envious of the first ones but I get really jealous of the type who think about achieving something and make that happen. 

Let's break everything down here. I honestly believe that this life is all about knowing yourself, bettering yourself and leaving this place with no karmic debit. I feel like everyone is cleansing themselves in some way. We come here, live our life, try to learn from that lesson and better ourselves. I read somewhere that there are 4 types of souls. Old souls are the one whose main purpose is to break the cycle of this life and death. Young souls are fresh and new and are just focused on achieving and gaining, and other two souls in between with one leaning more towards the young side and other towards the old. Regardless of this story, I do believe that we are here for a purpose. 

Karma is everything we do in this life. The only logic that makes sense about luck is karma, probably from this life or past life. People who are lucky are feeding off their past life's good karma. If they use it to good purpose they might be able to break the cycle and achieve Nirvana. But if they are just using it for selfish reason then it's a trap. 

Knowing all this now, it makes me better and also not want me question " why me" every time I fail. I , now realize that I do not have any control over what happens to me and the only thing I can control is my reaction to it. I can get hyped up and be mad and complain all the time but that would not change anything. Instead I can keep doing my work, recognize the pattern and be more cautious next time and maybe I'll collect better karma for next time. Who knows?

So about the topic, I used to get so restless thinking about the future and want to know what life has stored for me. I do not get that anymore. I'm enjoying the process. I love the pace. I trust the universe. I am supposed to put some work here with my good heart and faith and hope things turn out better. If they don't then I can look that as an opportunity to learn something new. 

It is so interesting how changing perspective can bring you so much peace. I think I am heading towards my peace and I hope you all can find it too. If you have landed in this page and are reading it, I'd love to know your thoughts about life and karma and maybe we'll cleanse another karma by helping each other out. 

Until next time...
